For SG cars usually they just ask u to open boot and have a look at it thats all. If you notice on the board ur car number will be displayed there i guess it means that they have some kind of scanner to say that u pass the test , maybe ?




So many ppl working in the west , i think we should start our own group for those in the EAST. haha

Wah, so many buaya around , I think we should organiZe a drinking session soon . Anybody up for drinks tomrw?

I have a 3 bedroom apartment in jb that's 15min from causeway and the monthly payment is bout 1.1k RM. And my litttle room in sengkang already cost 550 SGD. If you don't mind the traveling and the early morning waking up then it's really worth the sacrifice for the cheap gas and food

I am also looking for a place now . I found my previous place using the newspaper classifieds and even went to craigslist to scout for plces. Like u mention a lot of these guys are agents and manyare co-broke which makes it worse. I m thinking of staying put in SK but a 2+1 unit already cost about 1.4k, cant imagine places like Tampines and Paris Ris.

I want to ask if anybody got their tax assessment for the Year 2010 ? I m asked to pay like 500 bucks so is that suppose to be the normal rate for PR ?. Anyway whats the tax rate like for foreigners and PR ?

Just wondering if anybody still looking for a place to stay ? I'm thinking of taking the whole unit and renting out to others. I will be moving out from my current place end of the month. Looking at places like SK , hougang or maybe the east side.

i havent really go look yet but from my survey the cheapest i could get is 1.8k for a 3+1 room hdb and i am assuming its not very convenient using public transportation. i will only need one room and i will definitely rent out one common room and master bedroom. From that i think u can figure out what the cost going to be like for each room .

I think it's ok bcoz there is no way they would find out. Even if they do u could always say that it's for ur parents to stay not for investment. Anyway u mention about studio apartment are u talking bout the new project in Jalan Kebun Teh near the CIQ ?

This friday drinking session , no need to organize

Sounds good to me . So confirm St James ? i dont wanna come back to SG if nobody's coming .

how tonight anybody want to go drinking ?

I have moved 3 places for the pass 3 years and all in Sengkang the price is about 500-600 SGD for a common room. Recently i just moved in to this place also in sengkang and i got it for 450 with aircond.

Actually its my fren's aunty place. Its actually a good deal considering the amount of nights i sleep there haha. Anyway I paid 550 for the last place ,only thing was the owner was a bit on the weird side so i wouldn't recommend it to u. I suggest u look at the newspapers u should be able to find some thing decent only problem is u do not know the 'real' owner until u actually stay with them. U can also try Hougang area since it belongs to the opposition party price should be lower as well

Can la i tried b4 i drove malaysian car and when i got my singapore car in to SG and thats b4 i got my PR. Of course i have 2 licenses just in case they wanted to see but i paid like 300 bucks to retain my MY license. So far havent tried renewing yet i hope i can do it in the future. Anyway theres like thousands of malaysian vehicles cross the border everyday i'm pretty sure alot of them are on work passes. Only thing for sure is when u enter the checkpoint they have a big sign saying that PR and singaporeans not allowed to drive foreign vehicles thats it.

Soon we will be kayakng at ochard rd as well lol . Seriously go out and have a drink during weekends. Good thing is u dont have to drive there hav so many cabs around.

Just read from the news today that malaysians with SG car can buy RON95 now. Source
