You need to know unless in Msia the same job pay more MYR than SGD else assume same salary Msian food is more expensive! E.g Spore you earn SGD 4k the same job in Msia you earn MYR 8k. Their cheaper is car compared to Spore as they no COE

1. Living only a causeway away, they come in large numbers to earn Singdollars but spend it in Malaysia.
2. Malaysians from as far as Penang, Perak, Trengganu and Malacca also work here but rent a room in JB. Again Johor landlords huat.
3. For day trips, Singaporeans can only go to JB. Again Johor gets most of the tourist dollars.
The Johor sultan would like to keep all of the above within Johor but the federal government would not allow that.. the revenues of all the States are consolidated and the federal government redistributes the money as equitably as possible. Of course the Johoreans are not happy.
If Singapore rejoins the federation, our revenues will have to be shared with all the Malaysian states. Do you want..?

Thankfully their government doesn't charge COE and Malaysia has oil. Except for some parts of KL, most roads in Malaysia are hardly congested. I went to Malacca recently and never once saw a traffic jam. There's no good reason to impose COE to curb demand
Having said that, it's not as if Malaysians have the luxury of driving a car while in sharp contrast sinkies have to ride bicycles rain or shine. Our transportation system is so good that we don't really have to spend 3 hours to travel from our home to our place of work. Sure, jhks might have a car each, but they are waking up at 4 am to travel 3 hours to Singapore to work... and travelling by bus and motorcycle.

You are willing to allow 33m Malaysians working here with no need for a work permit or employment pass Are you sure we can compete with them if there's no quota?

This is 新天地 in Malacca (notch Shanghai)
Below is 5 串 鸡肉, 5 串 牛肉, one ketupat.
Price: RM 15.
I changed ringgit at 3.51.
You say expensive or notch?
(29-02-2024, 12:13 AM)[[ForeverAlone]] Wrote: [ -> ]you already say Malacca , further up. I preferring JB and near JB states the price is roughly the same close to SG hawker price.
FYI I think if you go back , don't get shock they also increase price at this place you eat at Malacca. As I have mention business owners in MY also want to profit more , they know a lot their locals go SG work earn SIN dollar thus come back MY got that spending power.
