Thanks for sharing the fact that religious ideologies, worshipping gods and other such hokum, rents space in your head.

 

I was asking @ModdaPunk BTW

Thanks for sharing the fact that you are intolerant like the hate ideologists

 

I dont care who you were addressing it to.

[Grumpy one]

You must be the dumbest person on earth.

You want to move to a country, that has not used it's old name since 1963.

By the way how goes your sex change, or have you decided on a lobotomy  ?

I hope the surgeons find something in your head to remove, besides bull <deleted>

What precisely is this "muslim mindset" and how exactly does it diminish your quality of life in Malaysia?

 

Too conservative, too strict, too freedom averse.

I don't like it.

Mrs NL's new maidservant isn't much of a worker.

 

But is she a man-worker?

Makes sense they were both regarded as Malaya.

 

It might make even more sense if they were regarded as MAYLAY....or Maylays....

I read somewhere that foreigners can own land in Malaysia.  I don't know if that's true but if it is that would be a huge plus for a lot of people.

[ModdaPunk]

So first of all, it's not Malaya but Malaria.

Now:

Malaria vs Thailand...

Hum....

 

Well Malaria is self-explanatory.

As for Thailand it's more like a codename for AIDS.

 

So I probably go for malaria.

While I have no intention on giving an example of it, any that lived in an Islamic country know what it is.

If Thailand's law keeps people that would like to live in Malaya away then I hope they never give it up.

I have not only worked in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Brunei, Indonesia, Oman and Pakistan but I also lived in Iraq and Malaysia while I worked there.

 

So that's why I am asking. I'm desperately afraid that I may have been cheated out of knowing something critically important and valuable to my life.

Who's being intolerant? Up to you as to what you allow yourself to believe.

 

PS: Loving the irony but. Absolutely drenched in it. Awesome.

I believe that privilege is unchanged in their recently revised Malaysia My Second Home long-stay immigration entitlement where the financial bar was raised.

 

However, the incidence of bacon still remains inversely proportional to the peace and tranquility quotient.

Would you put your bacon on the Y or X axis?

This is the old scheme that was scrapped in 2020.

Now the visa is minimum US$150k deposit plus you have to buy a property

Needless to say it's not proving too popular.

They had another scheme between 2020 and 2024 which was even worse. It had less than 100 applicants as I recall

Yes ... very easy but not much capital appreciation and hard to sell
