I would think otherwise. Lucky the thieves is satisfied with the loot. If not then the outcome will be different. This kinda case is normal in JB. It just a matter of when and the odds are getting higher the longer you stay in JB. It's not too difficult to tell/spot which house got ppl working in $ingapore. Leaving in the wee hours, Sg registered bike/car, etc etc. I guess that's the trade off if you choose to stay in JB rather than Sg

damn sad ....
me also everyday travel and no one else staying other than the neighbours..
time for CCTV ...

Hi guys,

Got a question with the mobile plan here. I saw starhub has this "Caller Number Display" which is $5+ a month. Is this normal? I have never seen charges like this before...so we basically have to pay $5 a month in order to see the caller's number?

So if I don't pay the fee does that mean i won't be able to see the caller's number?
*
yup ...that's right

i dont suscriber ...since its no benefit...
thats nearly rm200 ....

just my suggestion, for those organizing the badminton session, all those who sign up must pay weekly, even if cant come. if come regularly and cant make it once or twice, can be exempted from paying based on case by case basis.

my colleague previously organized one and making it compulsory for all to pay will be fair to all. the person organizing will be collecting the money and extras will be put towards fund for extra cocks.

currently i'm playing with uncles/aunties at Tampines. all those are pro dammit. make me feel like oldfag compared to them

good lah
the only way to improve is playing with them pros

Give you some figures then you decide for yourself whether worth it or not.

Perodua Kenari 1.0 is $80,000. DBS 10-year loan @ 3.50% means you pay $900 a month on installment. Monthly parking at your HDB is $300, so that's already $1200 a month before factoring in ERP (toll), expensive petrol, insurance, maintenance, etc, can easily spend close to $2k/mth on your transport alone.

wah ...so u must be rich man son lah ..

To be honest, I've never seen anyone get his credit card application rejected before. If you meet the minimum 80K income criteria, then your credit standing/history must be the issue.

freshies engineer paid 2200 and above.

for expenses, check back few pages back, i think there's a breakdown. generally 1000 will be enough for a small room (500), food (300-400) and bill/transport (100). if you share room, can save/spend more.

yup ...around there liao
nothing more to add unless you are a spendrift

ok guys question.

normally, in singapore will they deduct something like epf in the salary?

sorry noob question. i'll start working there next month.

first 2 years deduct 5 percent then gradually increase till 21%
