I think the level of concessions you can expect from Australians about this depends on whether you care about being seen as a "community hero" or "assimilated newcomer". hmm.gif

As an example Lebanese and Somalians in Australia seem to have successfully imposed a lot of parts of their culture in Australia, you will need to read up on modern Australia to discover what I'm talking about. icon_idea.gif

Halal eateries already exist in Australia too ... easiest would probably be McDonald's or KFC brows.gif

The only thing I see in the list that’s not available here after 5pm is shopping. Everything else is available at every major city - including Adelaide and Perth (not sure about Darwin). Nightlife in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane is actually quite decent.

Can’t compare with the likes of London and New York, but definitely does hold it’s ground against Malaysia.

Do you know anyone who's keeping both Malaysian and Australian citizenship and how.... Can PM also if it's personal. I'm seriously contemplating to do this due to some personal commitments in both countries...

Australia has no problem with dual citizenship...but Malaysia does not allow....

The tricky part is how you travel between the two....you can leave Australia with any passport, but you can only enter Australia with an Aussie passport....because you will not have an eligible visa on your Malaysian passport....

You can enter and leave Malaysia with the Aussie Passport, as long as they do NOT know you are Malaysian...You cannot enter and then leave with the Malaysian passport, because of the above....you need a valid visa to even check in....

The way out is to travel through a 3rd country that does NOT practice API with Malaysia....

Just use aussie passport. Why bother having Malaysian passport and create headache.

You're still Malaysian right. Being Malaysian doesn't mean you need to have a passport.

But if you've 2 passports. So enter and leave Malaysia aussie passport. Then enter leave aussie how.. Use what passport

Not an issue for short stays, but if you enter with your Oz passport you will only get a restricted period visa as for the usual Oz tourists....so you cannot stay long....
