My girlfriend & I are getting marry end of the year. I am a Sarawakian, and she is from Negeri Sembilan. But we currently living in kl, with a permanent address here.
We heard a lot of people saying to make registration simpler, without the need to travel back to sarawak & negeri sembilan, we both need to change our IC address to KL address.
I have talked to my parents about our plan, and seem like they disagree with what I am doing, as they think I will lost my sarawakian status by doing so. It will means that next time when I go back to sarawak , I will need to fill up immigration form upon arrival, just like any west Malaysian.
My parents remind me must keep the "K" on the bottom right corner of my IC... as that confirms I am from Sabah/Sarawak. I can continue to change my IC address to KL address.
My question will be, just by changing IC address to KL, while keeping my "K" sarawakian status in the IC, can I still do all the marriage registration with JPN in KL? Or I must sacrifice my sarawakian status just because I need the convenience of marriage registration here? Anyone knows or been through this situation, please kindly advice.
Thank you!
Marriage Registration. Change IC address., Sarawakian + West Malaysian.
