I think the MM2H info on here needs to be updated since latest is 2016.
There are so many agents in which to apply for the MMH2. What is the going rate the agents charge and what should a foreigner watch out for when seeking an agent. I had an agent ask me for RM8,000
to apply and he seemed reputable. He sent me much info such as below. I am just wondering if his rate is fair. He did say pay half up front and the other half after approval. Anyone please reply if you know, thanks.
