Not just Sg Buloh, Kajang and along the routes of the MRT. 2nd and 3rd Mrt routes should be announced by year end as well.Construction frenzy all around cant really keeps track Cheers

I know there is no where in Greater KL now consider ulu, the prices really shot up. If you looking for a cheap and peaceful location, you have to move state nowadays :(
Thinking of retiring to Penang or Melaka, but considering of buying up a colonial building and renovate it

I was thinking the same...if JB proves to be expensive by the time we decide to retire, we'll most likely live in Melaka instead. Only downside is, it is further away from Singapore where my kids will be. Old already how to drive so far.

Crime statistics from Singapore Police Force, year 2012;
http://www.spf.gov.sg/stats/stats2012_table1.htm

-Housebreaking and Related Crimes - 596
-Violent Property Crimes - 391
-Commercial Crimes - 3,483
-Crimes Against Persons - 3,811
-Miscellaneous Crimes - 4,166
-Theft and Related Crimes - 18,421
-Overall Crimes - 30,868

391 cases of Violent Property Crimes means that on average, Violent Property Crimes happen every single day in Singapore, just that we don't see them being reported in our newspapers. Now do you know why you're being labelled as 'ignorant' by your own leader?

Hi NatureBest, as a Malaysian I never deny crimes level in Malaysia perceived as low nor Im a BN supporter but ignorance of certain quarters in Singapore do amuse me. As if once you step to Malaysian soil you will definitely be robbed or killed. This is just my personal view.Nothing malicious

There was a time when everyone was looking towards Melaka as a retirement location before the hype died and along with the property prices. Maybe it could work now as prices start to go up in Iskandar Malaysia. Melaka possesses the charm of an old dame which many places find hard to match.

Bro Naturebest

Are you really an investor in Malaysia?

You claim to be an owner of Ujana and looking to exercise multiple S&Ps when the Malaysian elections are over. And then you try your best labeling the country and try to make the investors look like idiots coming to Iskandar.

Warnings are appreciated and also suggestions to improve safety will be useful to everyone; not continuing to parrot the obvious.

There are risks everywhere and measuring the overall rewards that come with it. Pardon me but you are probably never going to invest in Russia or Venezuela even if there's money to be made?

God bless you all .....

Your claim seems bogus. Do you have the stats and source to back your claim?

Links here show USA is ranked first in crimes with 11.8m per year and 100,000 gun violence victims with 30,000 deaths annually. No one seems to complain about getting shot or mugged when visiting USA.

Malaysia isn't even in top 10 but ranked 37 globally.

Cheers

Hi folks,

Recently I filed the late delivery claim at "Tribunal Tuntuntan Pembeli Rumah" and as per procedure served the formal letter of notice to the developer.
Now the developer wrote to reply that they are willing to pay the claimed amount in full with condition that I must first cancel the claim at "Tribunal Tuntuntan Pembeli Rumah".

Should I follow OR request the developer to settle the compensation first before withdrawal of the claim through the authority.
What is the common practice?

100% Singaporean. Not living in Malaysia yet but definitely enjoying the half glass that's been made available to us but not complaining about the empty half that comes with it. And hopefully not, in the future.

In life, it is about scratching each other's back, isn't it? :smile:
