In my opinion the boredom is not derived from your location (MY vs SG), but rather depends on how many friends you have in MY vs. SG, how familiar you are with the places, how much you are willing to spend etc.
I hope things will get better for you.

IMO... is derived from your lifestyle and your interest..

another question, regarding money.

i don't think there's any bank that can deposit money in sg and withdraw in malaysia right? (because i just asked ocbc, they say they are different companies from malaysia)

how do u guys send money back to malaysia, e.g. give money to parents.

and most of the time u guys keep the money in sg and not malaysia right? hoping sgd value go up even more?

You can deposit money in SG and withdraw it in MY by using your ATM card. The problem..
1) Fees charge per withdrawal
2) Not very good exchange rate

Are you guys been paid well there ? For example, if you are getting RM10K a month in Malaysia, do you get SDG10K a month there for the same kind of job and duties and responsibilities ? That's my question to you. Please answer truthfully.

Any input on why choosing SG instead of other places like Aust, Japan, US, Europe where the money should be better than SG?

I chose SG because I can drive back to KL anytime.. Scuba diving at Malaysia.. bla bla..

I know this a bit off topic but I've been hearing strong rumours going around my Malaysian relatives and friends in Singapore that Singapore registered cars would not be allowed into Malaysia or would be stopped in Malaysia.  This is to prevent Malaysians living in Singapore from going home to exercise their right to vote in Malaysia.

Does anybody know if there's any truth in this?  I know that it has made some of my relatives and friends in Singapore cautious about driving back to Malaysia to vote.  If its true, any suggestions on what to do to be prevented from going home to vote?  I understand that most of the coach services have been fully booked by now.

Jam for sure.  Well, I've been telling my Malaysian relatives and friends here its just bullshit but some have been living in Singapore so long, they have become as KIASU as the Singaporeans.  I told my wife and sister, if necessary, I will tie them up and put them in the car to drive them back to PJ to vote wink.gif
