Yeah biggrin.gif...

Not that it won't happen but it's relatively much safer here.
Imagine leaving your bag with your items on a bench inside a garden while you go for a jog?

It would've been long gone if it was in M'sia biggrin.gif

But still... Don't try tongue.gif

don't do this....
instead of losing it, you'll see the bomb squad there laugh.gif

before u go, make sure ur company is footing the bill so the amount shouldn't matter to u but the company but first time i hear 'any clinic is fine' like usually company will arrange first blink.gif

but on other hand u can go to healthway amk, they have xray and blood test at the same place noneed to go 2 places
*
mine also any clinic is fine as long as got all the required tests....
js tell them this is for medical examination and they'll know what to do...
the x-ray i even did at another shop which js provide x-ray service(referred by the clinic of course)... biggrin.gif

Anyone recently submitted docs to ICA for PR?
I have few docs in Bahasa (I know official language is English and national language is Bahasa) cause I noticed that birth cert and some other certs (SPM, etc) is in Bahasa.
If u have reliable translation done and affordable price will be good too to share with me.
Also, SGD100 is payable upon submitting docs right? Then once submission is approved then there will be one interview session before PR is approve right? Correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks.

mine not translated also....no issue
submitted last year June if not wrong....got my results 10 months later laugh.gif

Want to ask

1) If my unit current broadband is held by my housemate, is it possible to do a transfer to my name or should I subscribe a new service again?
2) If it means to cancel the existing broadband, will the service provider take back the router as well?
3) What's the best deal for broadband? So far most package comes in $39.90/month and $49.90/month
*
go ask telco better...diff telco might have different condition....
for M1,
1) Cannot transfer broadband account...
2) only have to return the modem
3) depends on what speed u want...
