When we have guest from India, we use to take them to all the must see places in Malaysia like KLCC Twin tower, KL Tower, Genting highlands, Malacca, Midvalley megamall etc...Been to Malaysia and not been to Singapore is something very odd...and vice versa.as it is only 5hours bus travel from Kuala lumpur to Singapore.
Recently, Singapore high commission in Malaysia has stopped accepting application for its visa processing as its been given private travel agencies to process it...of course with an extra fee.
Just wondered how the application fee for the Singapore visa has soared for the past 3years in my personal experience here Malaysia...
Fee in 2006 - RM50/-per person
Fee in 2008 - RM71/-per person
Fee in 2009 - RM105/-per person
The increase in the last one year is shocking!!!
Though, I don’t have any answers for why India has not joined in ASEAN to avoid these visa fee/trade/jobs between the its member (Asian) countries...something like that of European Union, which has the benefits of visa free travel, trade, jobs within its member countries.
