just curious got for those who work in Singapore but stay in JB, normal working hour (9-5) and daily commute to SG via car.
How was your experience and any tips or concerns that i should be considering?
other than tiredness from driving, i will get - more money and savings - bigger house - better food - no NS for my son - int school for my son than sg gov school (not to say not good but i don't like the competitiveness there) - better places to go during weekend - more money and savings
and i can also consider renting a room in SG and go back only during weekends, if i am really too tired.
want to hear from all perspective.

QUOTE(KilJim @ Nov 22 2023, 02:26 PM) I don't think he needs to go for NS in that case, even if he's residing in Singapore i know. which is why the choice was between staying in singapore and convert to SGrian / PR to study locally then serve NS, or stay in JB and go international school, and skip the NS. think the point is not about NS, i just want to to know for those who commute daily from JB, any other concerns that I have not considered.
