Living in JB 2 (Johore)

[whoami]

New water is recycled from sewage, I hope they can remove all the hormone and chemical effectively.

We have been drinking em for so many years leow.

I would rather drink recycled sea water.

Thanks alot!

Got this info from a blogger's site.

We lucked onto a really nice young guy from a very decent company who will move household stuff at a very reasonable cost from Singapore to your doorstep. Having checked with many others, I am sure their rates cannot be topped.

There are many considerations you may not know about: customs rules and regulations, complicated paperwork, the many counters and approvals required, timing at the causeways, reliable workers (a BIG consideration) and their working hours, and their break times … all sorts.

This company has wide experience and is very pleasant to deal with as well.

NOTE: You must specify if you need the stuff unloaded and placed in your house.

Setting sun, casting lingering shadows upon the greying shores
Crashing waves from the tide, flowing in with discarded toys
People leaving, setting sail, some still waiting for that gale.

Sadly, some without a choice, their sorrow without a voice.
Cries unheard, tears unseen, leaving behind festering greed.
Vacating their place, tired of seeing another uncaring face.

Gleeful fly feeding on yet another, people rushing crestfallen.
Nary a smiling brow as they just staggered on with a frown.
Dying preferred to being ill, like a used battery dumped in the fields.

What have we become, where are we going?
Where the promised alpine land once stood, only ruins awaits the
ones that were lost.

The dream that once was is no more, press on, return not back
to the forsaken shore.

Very nice poem wuqi! Mind if I share on my facebook?

Also, does anyone knows if it's cheaper to buy tv in singapore or JB? If buy from Singapore bring to JB, will we kanna tax @ custom?

Hi Sis Sanur, they will come to do the packing and wrapping of the items to be moved? Spoke to Daniel from Grren land, he informed me that they only move NO PACKING OR WRAPPING of furniture items! Apparently have to get own cartons also for the packing.

Oh as pAcking of clothes n small items am not sure, u can check with them. The wrapping of furniture they did for me, ok mayb u need to check with them too. As they put protection n those strink wrap for me, is good to give Alex a call, he will have a look at yr items n advice you , no obligation..One of the reason I used him was, no need to do comPlicated documentation, just a list of items,

 

[Grago]

Thank you Sanur. Will give Alex a call and work from there.

Hi Narmi,

In the end, was resolved as it turned out to be ok as there was some miscommunication.

Today was a good day, a good closure to a pretty bad couple of weeks. As i am still working through the cold of the night, my heart feels very warm. I am very glad and honoured to have good friends with me. People who called and offer assistance and company. People who tried to help in an unmarked envelope. Thank you so much, very grateful and very honoured.

Wuqi bro glad to hear its resolved and all is well. I knOw that familiar warm feeling it just fills u up in a way that cant be exPlained and i dunno abt u but i will sumhow break into a smile
