Hmmmm seems like mummy hell bent on jb liao. The force is strong. I see no way of stopping her path liao.
So funny that jb ple wanna stay in sg while sg ple wanna stay in jb.
Still considering our options...just that hubby savings for mortgage payments can only last 5 years so will have to make a decision soon if he still does not get a job...either I work harder or sell the car or move to JB or downgrade from terrace etc...or live with very little savings...
I just gave a month's notice to stop my busy Monday morning locum, so will have to find something to replace it soon. But will appreciate the temporary reduction in working hours....

My hubby is just unlucky in his career after marrying me, maybe I jinxed him but he is trying hard and otherwise has no vices and is very thrifty and fairly patient...my dad is deceased but my mum does not seem to be too upset about my buying a JB house, she has even stayed over there with us last Christmas....and I will still be working in Sg even if I do stay there so not like I am migrating from Sg totally...

Certainly not a carefree retirement with kids around. I have no such baggage and I plan to move from state to state and stay a little longer where I like as well as outside that country till I am old and not so mobile. Sg will still be my final resting place. It's got everything 24 hours and 365/365. I only wish prices there forever remain cheaper than Sg including housing as I do not intend to buy one and that the government don't disfavour long term stayers. I particularly like middle of Genting Highlands with a cool weather whole year round, serene and not far from city.

Why don't consider do some business? Maybe he can do relationship manager and you be the doctor of your own clinic and he will go out solicit business partnership with hawker etc. This is un-tap business opportunity.
I think each entry is for 14 or 28 days only, unless MM2H. But money can settle issues including possession of gun.
That reminds me of an incidence in Cambodia. I was coming home and the immigration kept flipping my passport and caused quite a delay. Finally he said my visa expired Shocked and panicked. I shouted across to my friend who has passed the immigration point that my passport expired. He shouted back give money. But the officer refused to accept money as everyone heard our shouting. Suddenly, the manager of silk air, who is my friend's husband appeared from nowhere and he managed to get the immigration to clear me. What a relief especially when there is communication problem in a foreign land.

I was working in JB for the last one year. Other than going on business trip i had to report back to the office in JB. No joke going in and out everyday. I initially drove in but gave up after two months. Too much hassle getting jammed for up to 4 hours. After one week my right leg was feeling the effect of stepping on the brakes all the while. Driving however give you conveniences and the opportunity to eat at places you like.
I changed to taking bus. Bus 170 to larkin and then a short cab ride to office. Evening call my teksi on smartphone and go all the way to city square. Then any bus back to Spore. I no longer can eat things that I like as my transport options became limited. Only can eat at city square.
JB has a different feel from Spore. Life not so stressful and people are friendier. Cons is that cost of living has been increasing.
Mommy is looking at cost of JB now and thinks it is cheaper than Spore. A cup of coffee at one ringgit is much cheaper than Spore now. The problem comes when you live there for a while is localised. When that cup of coffee become one fifty ringgit, Mummy only sees 50% increase in cost. Mommy do not see that one fifty is still cheaper than coffee in Spore. Because the comparison is no longer between Spore and JB but the increase in coffee price.
I can tell because since GST was implemented in April I complain and complain.
