You manyak $$$ go holiday lar...

Regret i convert my ruppiah money early with last year.

Work tension.....dont smoke, dont yam ccha, dont drink beer...only spend holiday.

MY company hire alot monkey eat peanut and while paying this monkey with peanut.

I have total 34 day of leave - dont spend on leave holiday i have noting to Kill my leave.

If you transfer more than RM 10k, remember to make your declaration to BNM as "Investment". - where to declare this?
per time transfer of RM 10K? Below 10k no need declare?

i can use CIMB to transfer to SG. not worth the risk to be carrying so much cash to SG. I intend to bring only SG2K+ which is the minimum requirement to open the ac.

anyway, thanks so much for your reply, Gark.

dividend from SINGAPORE REITS

Can someone help me with a link for when dividend being declared for Singapore Reits.. I could not find it ...
Something like the dividends ex-date?

http://sgx.i3investor.com/jsp/divann.jsp

check there .....


p.s. Prophet can you list out all the iinformation (website links) regarding singapore reits ? about dividend and the reitdata.com and related at FIRST page and FIRST posts....... easier for them to have a reference ...... many thanks.....

cause of this Forex i hoot one counter ..... telkom!!

At the bottom of the TT form under declaration, under item 7. Usually 'Investment' or "Equity Investment' or 'Savings' will not attract too much attention from BNM, and the furthermore declaration is true, so you wont get in trouble. 1 declaration for every 1 overseas TT transfer above RM10K. Avoid transferring more than RM 100k/transfer otherwise will be under BNM spotlight, split to several transfers. Transfers less than RM 10K no need to declare.

The customer service can guide you through filling the form. Remember to put the DBS swift code & address of the branch where you open your account (get all the info when you open). Open account, and deposit more than 5k SGD, otherwise SGD2 per month charges.

Carrying cash is safer than you think... put inside hand luggage, make sure total less than USD10k, otherwise have to make custom declaration. I am used to carrying bags of cash across border so it is ok for me...

thanks so much for the INFORMATION - GARK,. meaning TT cannot do online. Hv to go to the bank.... ?

Usually I go bank, my RM will fill in for me, and I just sign.. cause online TT can only do less than 10K transfer (hence no need declaration)...

Just to share, for those interested to open ac in Singapore. I managed to open the DBS IBANKING AC on Monday. Took the morning bus , arrived at 1pm.. reached bank at 3pm. Went over to DBS HQ.. @ MARINA BAY FINANCIAL CENTRE.

Finished both opening account at 5pm. The bank account is immediate, however for DBS VICKERS, just fill in all forms and they will
notify in a week time via pos if successful or not. As need to open CDP account too.

Both bank and broker is on the same floor.

For those not intending to spend money in Singapore, can actually take the evening bus back. I heard, the bus is every hourly...

Very enjoyable bus ride... Watched 2 movies on the way there.
However, i stayed 2 nites and came back home by flight.

Minimum amount to open?

No need to bank in any money when u open the account. However, they will charge SGD2 the following month if balance is below SGD 5K.

IDR drop, but probably everything is now much higher price. Could be a bowl of mee cost IDR36,000. Have U heard the story of a European country around WW2 when a man wanted to buy bread and put his money in a wheelbarrow cost inflation is so high that he needs a wheelbarrow filled with money to buy just plain bread. But B4 he can buy bread, he has to go inside the shop to enquire whether the price of bread has not risen yet (so he has enuf money in his wheelbarrow to buy it) and when he comes out, the wheelbarrow is gone - stolen, but all his money still on the floor cos the wheelbarrow is woth a lot more than the money.

Ok lah manageable.. so far inflation is about 8-9% p.a. not the hyperinflation you mentioned.

P/S can get nice bowl of mee for Rp20,000 and below lar..

FD rate is also around 9%.. so ok lar match inflation.
