Actually HK driving license could not be used here in Malaysia. We need to convert the license to Malaysian license and by doing so, we need to authenticate the driving license in HK and the Malaysian Embassy in HK. Our company has tried to do for us but no luck. The best is to get the international driving license and drive here. This situation applies when we got our spouse visa. While we are holding the tourist visa, it is ok to use HK driving license for a short while.
Actually registering in HK is not really a problem nowadays. I choose to register in HK because this is my home. My 99 does not like it and she thought she has married the son to HK. I insisted otherwise I refused to get married.
After getting married in HK, it is easy to register the marriage in Malaysia Embassy in HK. They will issue a proper marriage certificate and the marriage will appear in the Malaysian government system. Nothing more to do when we move back to Malaysia. In doing so, I have 2 proper marriage certificates. It is better if the husband wants to apply for the residence in HK also.
Hope this info is useful for those ladies who are planning to join us as wives in Malaysia here.
I have just arrived in Malaysia for 2 months and am going through all those you have questions in your mind. Our company is helping us to handle these but is still very troublesome. You can email me or msn me so that we can share more. I will be in HK in Sept and we can meet la.
