90 Day Visa and mm2h...

Hi nothing is fool proof although westerners usually have no issues. To be blunt you should have proof of marriage and financial support in case they get nasty as Chinese women often come to Malaysia for "work". Otherwise usually ok twice, but no guarantees of course as immigration can refuse anyone anytime (even with a prearranged visa).

Thanks for your response. Although my wife is ethnically Chinese she now carries an American passport. But I would of course make sure we had plenty of documentation. If we could manage to stay for 4-5 months every year without going through the mm2h that would be preferable. We will give it a try later this year.

It is an interesting plan, but have you done some research about the costs involved, as it is very difficult to get rentals that are less than 1 year (if they are shorter the rental tends to be rather inflated) - so you may have to live in a hotel or a serviced apartment.
