Hmmm, but how did you get it in the first place?Unless you got married to an American, and thereby in the end got the US passport?
Ah, yes, its the trick of not letting either passport expire.
I let my Malaysian passport expire tho, I guess if I had kept travelling regularly, and had kept the Malaysian passport alive, I could have done it, ie, keep the Australian one, gained by me being a new citizen, and then, just kept renewing the Malaysian one by going to Canberra each time.
But talk is cheap. As I work as a subcontractor, its near impossible to presnet myself at the Malaysian High Commission in Canberra at 9am, pick up the new passport and be back on a flight to Adelaide by the afternoon, ...
In the end tho, I can't really see the benefit of keeping the Malaysian passport/citizenship long term, as my life is now in Australia.
Anyway, enjoy being a "dual".
