Hi, I'm an Australian planning to relocate to Penang early 2020. We already have our MM2H and have opened a bank account and have funds going into that account. Time for us to consider preparing Malaysian Wills to include with our Australian Wills. Is there a standard template that one can use that will be acceptable to estate managers? A friend obtained a few quotes for legally prepared Wills and the fees much higher than here in Australia, where you can use a government approved Will template. Thanks for any guidance, Kerry

Hi Kerry my name is Rishee and i am a lawyer in Malaysia. Usually you can reseal your Australian will in Malaysian Courts but it will take a much longer and troublesome process to do so hence i will advice you to write your own will. The costs to prepare a Will depends very much on your lists of assets you have. Do give email me for any further queries at *** and we can discuss further from there. Hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks Rishee. For now, just cash in bank. But next year there will be some physical assets like furniture etc. Appreciate your advice. Regards, Kerry
