Hi bro yonglip, just to clarify, you were bringing in soil from MY to Sg, right? I didn't know they don't allow soil or eggs to be brought in to Sg. Because I bought eggs at Jusco 2 weekends ago and was not asked to throw it away at Sg customs. Unless they didn't notice the eggs which were on the back seat in the car.

Yep...all prohibited. i think they missed your eggs bro. i also din know soil cannot. when they opened the boot, it was staring right at them..so kanna.

Anyone been to the drifting track nearby EL?

kennyc said:
The drift track is at the end of the private flight runway.. the runway was closed since 3 years ago. I believe people still go there to drag every now and then, and when the there are such events, both side of the roads will be full of cars, machiam family day, and there will be those make sure stores selling drinks, ice-cream and snacks.

Some car clubs from Singapore did organize drifting course at that drift track before.

Thanks for the recommendation.

We just went there for lunch and like it, will return to try other dishes.
The Ramen is a big portion as usual and can easily satisfy 2 person.

Wah, good thing we're moving to MY soon. At least if we bring stuff from SG to MY, it won't get confiscated or thrown away because most of the time, the MY customs may not check unless they see a lot of stuff in the back seat, then they will ask you to open the boot. Good to know all these.

Just received a call from Imperia-Puteri Habour inviting existing buyer to the dinner this Sunday.
The official launching date is 20-Nov-11, this coming Sunday.
Heard that the price is going to increase 7-14%.

Brothers who have bought Imperia, can I check with you what's the price range (psf from low level no view to high level with view) for Imperia currently before the officially launch. My info is outdated as it's been some time since I last went. I might be dropping by the launch. Will also be going to the MAPEX 2011 at KSL City.

Might bump into anyone from here. See ya!

Will not be able to make it as I have a conflict on Sunday. They told me that they are currently 55% sold and the price was going up by 7-14% on Sunday. They ran a half page ad today in the Straits Times and apparently received a number of phone calls. BTW, I have heard this 7-14% story for quite a while now, apparently, they were planning to raise immediately after soft launch but did not do so. So it would be very interesting to see if they actually raise the price, given that most of the unsold units are the high priced 2508 sft 3 bedroom units.

Here are some of the pre-launch prices that I remember. You can use this to gauge if they actually raised the price or not. Based on the picture uploaded earlier, they seem to be unsold:

2 bedroom IM-13A-07, 1673 sft, RM 1,022,888 (RM 605 psf - facing office block)
3 bedroom IM-20-06, 2508 sft, RM 1,811,888 (RM 722 psf - facing public marina and kota iskandar)
3 bedroom IM-31-03, 2508 sft, RM 2,112,888 (RM 842 psf - facing public and private marina)

Hope this helps.

OFF is popular product for army boy who are too lazy with repellent cream which are sticky on skin.
It is from Johnson and Johnson.
I recall in my younger day in kampong, we would burn coconut husks and carry the smoke like a praying monk into each rooms , that is cheap and good for a few hours as well !!!
It is called "SMOKE OUT !"
