A recent report has revealed that a significant majority of Singaporeans are in favor of freer travel between  Singapore and Malaysia, with 1 in 3 Singaporeans even desiring to retire and settle in neighbouring  Johor Bahru (JB).

[Ola]

1/3 are Fake Singaporeans like Jac Lau who will retire in his homeland

[WhatDoYouThink!]

Costs of living and space are two main reasons.

if 1 in 3 = true blue singaporeans

pathetic citizens from a little red dot of menses

Tiong not stupid, they don't take in Tom Mary Dick.

more than 30% of singaporeans are potential quitters? what will happen? loss of revenue and no one serving NS?

[Huliwang]

One third or 30% is about right. It ties in with the number of new citizens from Malaysia whose parents and relatives are in Malaysia. 
Basically they are having the best of both worlds - earn high salary and strong Sing Dollars here and retire back to ancestor home.     

[p1acebo]

While TS can visit his hometown Muar and eat cheap durians in Tampines. Best of both worlds

Singapore has become like this....you are free to come and free to go. If people from various countries can come so easily.  So why not.

Singapore is a Global City, whoever fits, cherish it, will become a part of Singapore. 
Nay sayers can leave peacefully too, democratically...🤣

[WhatDoYouThink!]

If they're more restrictions for foreigners to come here to stay and work, would you be better off in terms of finding a good job, lower costs of living and etc?

[surfer]

What is the point of uprooting to settle there if safety concerns everyday is a worrying factor? The exchange rate may favour singkies but if you get robbed , kidnapped or killed what’s the point.

[Migrant]

Get real when old. 
Body not the same. 
Walking is difficult. 
In singapore we see many on wheel chair 
Still moving around.  Can even take bus. 
Our roads and pavements are wheelchair friendly. 
In Malaysia, the place is big. 
Just getting to the main road takes a lot of navigation.  Unless you stay at home all the time or drive.

[Alice Alicia]

It's only a matter of time that racial and religious riots will breakout in Malaysia, if the Malay voting pattern is any indication.

[animeonegai]

I rather retire in chiangmai, bkk, nha trang, danang or outside hcm than jb.

[Huliwang]

Only the ex-Malaysuan new citizes that comprise about 30% of the population where they are familiar with the crime terrian there are comfortable to move back to Malaysia to retire. Most true blue local bred Singaporeans wil not be comfortable to live in such dangerous place.   

[Blasterlord2]

If you're a Chinese you can consider retiring in China

Realistically impossible...🤣
