QUOTE(Mackiddo @ Mar 6 2013, 12:48 PM) hiring a royal car with driver is much cheaper than that. Just give pm Lester1987. I believe he could help. I last time bought from Lorenzo also, knew the owner's daughter.  . special discount  waaa owner's daughter but i read at somewhere that lorenzo in JB is not really that cheap since they have presence in SG.. something like a $2000 sofa would cost around RM4500... is this true?

QUOTE(ameil @ Mar 6 2013, 09:15 AM) Ello... any recommended coach from singapore to seremban? Reliable and safety coach... a bit paranoid taking bus for such distance journey... QUOTE(jitshiong @ Mar 6 2013, 10:45 AM) Hi! I'm planning to take bus back to Seremban as well. Will try this in April. I think there's Plusliner at Larkin. Last time i used to take Plusliner, quite good. I take bus to KL very often. One bus that detours to Seremban Sentral each time is StarMart from Beach Road. You can buy the tickets online, go to busonline website.

QUOTE(yhoong12 @ Mar 6 2013, 01:55 PM) Was hoping your answer is a joke as i m seriously asking for an answer.  Semi serious bah. S Pass and EP is the same thing, a pass to work in SG, unless plan to hang the EP at the neck and walk around the streets and laughing at S Pass, EP and S Pass basically the same. Any other advantage for EP? Can use the fast lane at custom and bring in your family I suppose. For the serious part. Some company maxed out their S Pass quota, with the EP employee now becoming S Pass, they don't have any more quota to keep you there. Since they need someone to fill your place, either hire new EP or keep you there by upgrading your pay. Hiring a new EP is not meaningful since they have to pay the new pay also. Your value should be higher than new EP employee since you more familiar with the company operation. So if you know if this is your case, can go bang table now~ like this > This post has been edited by JohnJon82: Mar 6 2013, 02:24 PM

All telcos provide similiar data plan, for best coverage, i have to say singtel compare to starhub and M1, the cheapest plan would be monthly 30++ without exceed any quota given. i take some random price plans from all telcos, check it out. M1: http://www.m1shop.com.sg/Redirect?nextpage...nuItemClicked=3Starhub: http://www.starhub.com/content/mobile/ipho..._priceplan.htmlSingtel: http://info.singtel.com/personal/communica...ne5/price-plans
