Wish him luck then. Since he has already made his own decision from the very first place. No point posting here or advise him.

I don't know that flat is unhygienic. The house whether it's hygiene or not depends on how you take care of it even though it is for rent. It is just bs that you cannot find a cheaper and better place to rent. Since you have bought a house, may i know when it is completed? If it's within one year time, go rent a master room instead of a house. Your traveling expenses really costs a lot, rm800 for a month?
What house you have bought? rm2k per month for the loan? Why not getting a cheaper unit which you pay like rm1k+-1.5k loan per month? It is still a home. You can find some units around rm190k. I understand that you said you wish to prepare a home first for the future. But why dont you choose a cheaper house first ? You can always get a buyer/tenants whenever you feel you can get another better house in the future...
It's not like you will live in that house for the rest of your life with your family. We have a choice. We are always given a choice
