OMG! finally can sau kung kor leen 
this is what i did with the suggestions and help from you guys - thank you to all!
1. use a tile bit (see attached photo)
2. use my cordless drill with the tile bit
3. no need to use a nail to start a hole. just use the tile bit and drill slow onto the spot. the bit wont skid, infact it was very steady and accurate, and takes very little time to start a hole.
4. dip the tip in water every 5-10 seconds, you can hear it sizzle....
5. each blardy hole took me like more than 10mins, like never ending.
6. drill with the tile bit until at least 1cm which is the thickness of my tile. Many times I wanted to rotary hammer it halfway. I did with one hole and the sides chipped a little so dont take shortcuts. Make sure its passed the tile only use the big gun.
7. last but not least, dont drill tiles ever again....
see the tile bit compared with a new one after only 6 holes.
my body aches all over now....

Very tiring indeed.
Nowadays I don't even use tile drill bits anymore
I stick a bit of masking tape on the tile
use a normal masonry drill bit on the masking tape
the drill bit will not slip as the masking tape is not slippery
the first part, drill slowly and don't use the hammer mode
you will soon have a shallow hole and can switch to hammer mode
