hi all,

just asking. any place in Singapore got free internet connection. Like malaysia, Macdonald.

thanks in advance.

I wanna ask, I got a used 42" LCD with me here.

Can I bring it back to Malaysia, do I need to pay tax while passing the Malaysian custom?

then which bank account i should open when i start to work in singapore??

BTW i hv maybank and CIMB bank account in malaysia..

That is M1 take 3 plan, where u can use it for 2 years for free and the phone doesn't belong to you at the end of the contract.
Besides take 3, I'm pretty sure u will have ownership of the phone

M1 is it? The corporate plan is it they fixed 20% off for all plan? Cos when I called, they said discount for Keppel group of companies for iPhone Plan is $44.8 (from normal $56). But my friend on Take 3 said his monthly payment got discount nearly 50%. Different rates for different sort of plans?

damn, my house owner just told me tat he wanna increase my rent to 500sgd. wtf! with 500sgd i can move to a room with at least an aircon and include utility fees! i am soo gonna move out soon

at first 380 to 430 due to my gf frequently visit me and stay overnight. now 430 to 500! the reason he give is tat the government increase the electricity bills, so hav to increase my rent also.

You're supposed to show your Mykad to be able to pump RON95 into a foreign registered car.

The real target are the Thais, not the Singaporeans. Thais come to Perlis and Kedah with pickups and minivans with modified fuel tanks to smuggle subsidised petrol out. I've seen a Thai pickup at my mechanic's place in Kepong with a 300L fuel tank. That's 6 times the normal size. The driver said he usually pumps petrol once an hour, 12 hours a day. That's 3600L of petrol smuggled out each day. Minivans, small lorries can hold a ton or two of petrol. Imagine how much money is lost.

Singaporeans are just an unfortunate casualty of war.

The real solution would be to remove petrol subsidies. But then... you guys will still complain anyway.

The Southern Thais can't vote for UMNO. So, it's not ok. Just that the customs, police and petrol station operators all take a cut and therefore the smuggling goes on unabated. Also a lot of the so-called nelayan... many of them smuggle petrol rather than catch fish.

would a fresh graduate with an Accounting degree be able to find a job in Sg? Or should I gather working experience in Malaysia first before venturing?

Thanks.

Question.

If my current landlord ends the tenancy contract early because they managed to sell the place, do I get some form of compensation? I wish to at least get back my agent fees and deposit.

Very sad to move out from Bukit Batok...

I just got myself a place at Bedok Reservoir for 500$. Why is it that I need to pay full month fees to agent when all he did was put the advert on the net where I found it. Even the owner can do that! Please somebody make me feel better.

N btw, what is all this 1+1, 3+1 term?
Is it how I paid for my 1 month plus 1 month advance when i first rent the room?

stay in yew tee, work in boat quay

Try geoduck, its taste damn weird, like mix of oyster and fish with the texture of rubber and it cost a bomb. My client chia me eat that and i didnt enjoy it.

There's a Giant at IMM, but its quite far from where you are. Tomorrow I'm going to try taking a leisure trip via Causeway Link to JB side Jusco. Some things are cheaper in Singapore than Malaysia though. For eg, I can buy 1L Dutch Lady milk in Sg for $1.40, but in Malaysia they are selling for RM6!
