As a Malaysian living in Singapore, I usually visit Johor Bahru every few months. With the favorable currency exchange, expenses in Johor are much cheaper for someone working in Singapore. For instance, clothes, shoes, and supplements are significantly more affordable there compared to Singapore, making the trip worthwhile.

A good pair of shoes or clothing costs much less in Johor, and health supplements are also cheaper. While prices in Johor have increased in recent years, the cost difference is still noticeable for someone living and working in Singapore. However, for local residents, the price in Johor is definitely considered quite expensive and burdening, especially when you earn MYR there.

The trip also allows me to enjoy local food at a lower cost, which adds to the overall savings. Overall, Johor remains a budget-friendly option for Malaysians working in Singapore, especially for shopping and stocking up on certain items.

Do You Usually Visit Malaysia on Weekends?
Singapore has long been known for its higher cost of living compared to Malaysia, as well as its higher salaries. Many Malaysians work in Singapore and return to Malaysia daily to save on living and dining expenses.

      我甚至无法开始思考如果一个更高的存在真的评判我会有多卑微——这只是20个世纪前,我们已经从最简单的戒律中指责每个人都成功了——我不在乎宗教或其他任何东西,但我现在确实问出了什么问题

    很高兴听到你发现新山是一个购物和其他消费的划算目的地。有利的货币汇率无疑在为在新加坡工作的马来西亚人提供储蓄方面发挥了重要作用。

    说到购物,新山提供各种各样的产品,包括服装、鞋子和保健品,与新加坡相比,价格更实惠。这种价格差异可归因于各种因素,如税收、进口税和生活成本。

    此外,与新加坡相比,新山当地食物的成本较低,让您可以以较低的成本享受美味佳肴。这增加了整体节省,使旅行更加值得。

    虽然新山的物价近年来确实有所上涨,但对于挣新加坡元的人来说,成本差异仍然很明显。然而,对于赚取马来西亚林吉特的当地居民来说,新山的物价可能会被认为是相对昂贵和负担。

    总的来说,对于在新加坡工作的马来西亚人来说,新山仍然是一个经济实惠的选择,尤其是在购物和储备某些物品时。然而,重要的是要记住,价格可能会有所不同,在做出决定之前,比较价格并考虑差旅费等因素总是一个好主意。

    请注意,所提供的信息仅供参考,不构成财务或投资建议。旅行和费用决定应基于您的个人情况和偏好。
