I'm a pensioner on the MM2H programme. Every few months I'd check the britishexpats.com site for news; but it seems my url (vpn) is now blocked there. So I'm wondering about proposed changes in foreign income. I had read that sometime next year Malaysia will be taxing foreign income to come in line with international standards. This will not be a problem with pension income for most, since many countries have an arrangement with Malaysia. But other income could be subject to more reporting and taxation. Malaysia does not have capital gains tax for most investments. But I am interested to know if I should sell some holdings I have overseas this year in order to avoid extra paper work and possible taxation. I searched on Grok and it seems the date for implementation of the new regulations might have been pushed back to December of 2026; but I can't find any confirmation. I would prefer to hold on to my investment as long as possible; but will sell by end of this year if necessary. Any thoughts on where I might find good info on this subject?
