Kampong spirit? :biggrin:

Maybe this is just my wife family. Because I dont think I want to treat them makan daily. Imagine my makan expenses per day is RM20.. with them around, every month I am paying like RM 2000 just to take care of their makan. Stress man. I dont mind if they work hard or get a decent job. But most of my wife siblings simply dont bother to work and will stay at home to gossip about everyone they know between themselves

u r 2 kind. if it were me, i'll find my excuse to 'disappear' everytime their wallet come a knockin be it in MY or SG or wherever in the world...

I once work in a company, the whole building is 2rooms and 3 rooms flat, all rented to Japanese. Fully furnished and cleaning and maintenance included. Boy, you should have been there to listen to all the cleaning ladies gossips about what they found in the apartments.....:biggrin:

What they found in the apartments huh? Tell me leh, i want to know...my experience with them have been pleasant lor, ever rented to a Jap lady who kept the place very tidy and somemore decorate it very nicely and another Jap man always working OT day and night and no time to cook so the kitchen also very clean...hate those type who cook alot and don't clean up...easily attract and breed ants and cockcroaches

Then how about modems and wireless router? Any comments?

The article got mentioned wireless devices using the RF frequencies have radiation risks...I not technical expert in telecom, don't know whether modem and wireless router use these frequencies or not...my layman knowledge is they do, best to keep to minimum usage...come to think of it, all these wireless telecom only come out full swing in the last few years, no one know the long term effects of being subjected to so many wireless network at home...

My view is there is no escape from telecom usage but no need to subject own family and neighbours to more radiation by adding on more antenna than is necessary in order to receive Singtel/Starhub/M1 signals. Recall watching some Taiwan news before of people erecting illegal telecom base station at home (lease space to operators for rental income) and residents nearby are understandably very disturbed and disputes arose over this...

Actually, if you keep you place clean, don't upset the food chain, the food chain will take care of itself. :smile:
I think we are built on top of a vast underground system of termite mounds, and in between cities of ant and wasp nests. Contractors routinely pour poison on the ground to try to prevent attacks, but this only succeeds in poisoning the fruit and veg you subsequently try to grow on it. Then when you bring in plants, whether for the ground or water, they too bring in snails and bugs. Moving house or buying antiques means moving in lurking cockroaches and spiders [mostly harmless and they too eat insects] and from other countries too. For sure the blessed rain leaves smalls pools of water to breed moskies out of sight and in the greenery around.
Balance, patience, and assert being top of the food chain when required.

Ok. Just to name a few:-

1. Dirty soil sinks and kitchens...
2. The kitchen come with untensils, they use the bowls to soak the socks, use the forks as a scrub.
3. Japanese ladys buys mineral waters to wash their face, then so many bottles just leave around, don't even bother to throw it away...
4. Used condoms under the bed, don't even bother to throw away.... :P

You want more....aiyoh! :biggrin:

HEY Cathy morning... Sorry afternoon....

Yeah i plan to head back by 5pm sharp. not later than that..... cause last weekend experience was terrible.

I expect the same starting this evevning unless malaysia does something about it.

So im off sharp at 5pm from Spore.

Problem is i need to come in tomorrow around 12pm. So i may need to take Link 2 tomorrow. But then how to return?

Jam may be horrendous....if last weeks experience is anything to go by

AP bro, today is Friday. TGIF. Also mean more traffics on the causeway. The later it is, the more jams. Be prepared! :smile:

I agree termite infestation is a huge problem in Malaysia.

That is why we have the termite warranty wherein they treat the soil by pouring lots of poisons.... The warranty is void the moment you bring something from outside......soil, sand, plants etc

Hopefully the rain would have washed away the poisons to much lower territory.... But sure residue still exists......

So nothing we can do about it right?

No wonder my bittergourd turned out almost white. I asked my mum to throw it. Scary

Nice..... never thought of this idea.....

Must suggest to all my travelling visitors who make my home their home base.

Sometime back had a visitor who stayed with me for 1 month plus. Made me bring him all over Spore to every park, beach, church etc

But gave a sizeable Ang Bao to my kids.

This guy is really good at cooking wild boar, rabbit, goats head (he can rip it apart so well ) etc. My stomach churns at the sight of goats head. Once he served me goats eyes and tongue.... I almost puked while eating it....

Despite that I should have put Cathys idea to good use....
