Unless you want to go through all the hassle of getting documents signed/certified/whatnots, i don't see much that we can do. Do or don't do we still gonna be taxed 30% and that my fellow Malaysians is a lot of money.

Hopefully all this nightmare gonna be over soon.

On the contrary, based on Alexa, traffic from US to SS is the most http://submit.shutterstock.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=951303#951303 But this is just traffic, no idea on buyer-wise.
