Malaysia won't bankrupt but your money become Zimbawe money. (worthless) sad.gif

No. You cannot withdraw from OCBC Singapore. I will give you a quote from unker dreamer (not his exact words but more or less the same meaning) .

"Do not put all your money in Malaysia. Convert to USD at every chance. RM is not going anywhere but downwards. Buy US ETF. You already have EPF which is already 20% of your wealth. Do not put in ASX FP. Holding USD cash is better than holding RM cash"

Convert to USD still need to through bank right? eg: Public bank Foreign FD?

I worry scenario like Greece... where their citizens not able to withdraw any money from their own country bank.

Unless you exchange the money in ABC bank Malaysia and remit it to ABC bank in Sg., then different story.

Mean if I open a ABC bank malaysia , I need to open a ABC bank Singapore in Singapore?
