This PM that I use has "ASNB" button to select from!

I wanted to buy some stamps a few months ago and was surprised that there was no button for that. Asked later and was told to queue up at counter 2. Strange, by name, it should be giving stamps and postal related business a higher profile, but it looks like other businesses are dominating there.

Cheerio.

Sorry, off topic question here.

How does the printer know where to print when they insert a passbook for updating?

Sensor in the printer to scan for the last line of printing?

Thanks.

Yes, but how does the printer know WHERE to print? It could be printing over the last printout.

Noted and thanks all.

Better stop here, off topic.

Cheerio.

P/S Kosong for me again today at PM.

Congratulations! Your balances must be reaching Mt Everest height by now! Ha.

For me, the govt is "preventing" me from buying. Why? 2 days public holiday (Gawai) here in Sarawak. Ha.

Cheerio.

Ya, if yours is a molehill, than mine is nanohill!

Since you bought it on my behalf, I will send to you my passbook for the update. Ha.

Cheerio.

Pity that I cannot find my name in the winners' list.

No non bumi?

Just came back from CIMB. Managed to get RM3800 of ASM for my son. Wish that I had more cash with me as the lady staff told me "quite a sum is available"! After the months of RM100, 500, did not expect this and thus was not prepared.

Try your luck now and see if there is any more left.

Good luck!

My 2 cents here ...

ASM, AS1M, ASW etc (the fixed price ones, ones which non bumi can buy) are about the same in term of returns. Problem is to buy them as all are sold out and have to wait for non bumi to sell theirs before one can try to get these.

Personally, I prefer the fixed price ASX than the variable price ASX as then I know the dividends I get will be my net and don't have to worry about the price. Yes, returns from the variable price ones may be better than the fixed price ones. But not my cup of tea/coffee. Ha.

Cheerio.

I know one should not jump to one's deduction if it does not go in one's way but sometimes things just strangely appear "not right".

Look at the recent Bank Islam's 3 instant millionaires contest. All the 30+ winners are you-know-who lah. Not a single non bumi in there. Then again, majority of their customers are bumi. So statistically, that may explain the nature of the lucky draws?

I wonder, is it a law in M'sia that lucky draws are witnessed by 3rd party? And of course no filtering before the lucky draw.

Sorry, off topic.

Yes, the lady was telling another Chinese customer but he did not bring his passbook.

Feeling happy that my El Nino season is coming to an end! Ha. That RM3800 strike is equal to my 3800/100 = 38 trips to the bank! Ha.

Cheerio.

Sorry to hear this.

Maybe reduce the visit frequency to when it is convenient for you, e.g., when you happen to go there for some other reasons. Then it will not be so disappointing.

Cheerio.

One idea came to mind while having lunch today.

Why not form a group to inform each other via sms when there are lots of ASX available to buy? Informing via this thread is a bit slow and also some members will not be reading it till hours later.

One condition, must be an active contributing member and not one who is waiting and "taking" tips from others only.

If interested, pm me your mobile number. I will keep your no confidential, only the sms members will have your mobile no. Will limit the group to 10 members.

OK?

Cheerio.

Yes, point noted.

If the quantity is large (say, RM100,000 or more), it will still take some time to sell all as not many will be carrying that amount of cash. They will still need some time to withdraw the money etc etc. Thus the window for ikan bilis like me to take some bites. Ha.

Still want to give this a go to find out.

Cheerio.

By giving others a hand, I also benefited.

Like what TEAM is, Together Each Achieves More!

Doing it by myself, I will not see that many fishing opportunities. With other like minded friends, we should gain more than what each one of us can get.

Enough of this teamwork philosophy! Ha.

Congratulations!

ASW is the hardest one for me to get. But try and try, and one day .....

To me, that is a big concern. Why? With the current volatile global stock markets (China slowing down, the fragile 5, many stock exchanges at all time high, etc), they shifted more into shares!

Just saw a video from MorningStar on economic outlook. They say bond market is an earlier warning than shares. Now, bond market is not in a good shape, in "red". Shares to follow?

Maybe PNB has a much better crystal ball than others?

Cheerio.

Congratulations!

In 1 go or multiple purchases?

I see.

I got 3.8K last week. More was available but I could not find any more $ in my wallet. Pity.

This week, you managed to get RM36K. You emptied all or more was available?

Someone selling their ASM out of the normal? Why? Or is this big volume the norm for ASM?

Cheerio.

Ha ha, I see.

Will keep tip like this mind for my future fishing trips.

Cheerio.
