Lim Hwee Hwa's husband money changer/ remittance MoneyWorld -- I used before.. Later I realize their rate is almost similar to bank TT... Do make some comparison with other remittance companies before using their services..
I guess they always think people not of their kind are ignorance and easy to bluff...
An owner of a bungalow in The Hills precinct in Horizon Hills has been complaining about the built quality of his house and the poor standard of HH in Facebook for almost a year already. From his complains, you can see that he is a very demanding person. To show you how demanding he really is, here's a very small part of all his complains, 'The build quality up here is terrible. Its unfortunate, but the monkeys working on your house have a sub-humanoid intellectual level, and can barely chew gum and fart at the same time, much less lay tile without breaking them or chiopping them. The builders cut corners EVERYWHERE... we found 240V electrical cables that should have been in conduit, merely buried a few inches below the surface of our garden... and running right diagonally across the garden.. drains flow backwards, almost every pipe fitting in many of our bathrooms leaked when we inspected the house, .... you honestly could not believe the crap we've been through... it has been 50 weeks since we moved in, and the builder is still fixing things.'
BUT when someone asked about the security of The Hills, this was his comment, "The security is.. seriously.. excellent now. We had some issues in the beginning, but they do take security very seriously, and it is excellent. The guards seem very professional, polite and are usually awake most of the time.. at least at the various guard houses and main entrances, they are extremely professional.'

Anyone got summon at Taman Molek before? I got a RM30 summon for parking in front of a shophouse there on a weekday afternoon. How come? I thought those parking lots in front of shophouses elsewhere in JB are free - no car park sign of need to put coupons in Molek also. Can pay the summon online?
I have 2 summons at Taman Molek.. 1 five years ago and 1 recently.. I guess you will ignore and see if they can forget it over time..
Thanks for reply. Oh looks like Molek really cannot park for free. When i come back to the car, saw only a few cars along same stretch got the pink summon leh, the rest are spared. I still dont understand how it works. No car park sign of need to put coupon. So you mean 5 years didn't pay? The JB traffic police didn't retain you at causeway for not paying? Sometimes i see them stopping SG cars just before entering causeway.
I was stopped to pay up for speeding offences but not parking offences... So I guess it is ok..
Ginfreely, the best is when you park go up to the shopkeeper infront to ask need coupon or not. In the tmn molek stretch the parking auntie very onz one sure make a lot of comission. The stretch that is free is the OSK/OCBC/P1/umobile stretch/old town. The free parking comes with the newly developed shoplots for a period of 3 years. Can't remember when they'll expire though.

Global recession in 2012 "can't be ruled out": IMF
BRUSSELS - Recession is a live risk next year, particularly in Europe, a senior IMF figure said Wednesday in Brussels as the eurozone toils with twin sovereign debt and banking crises.
International Monetary Fund Europe director Antonio Borges warned that a recession in 2012 "can't be ruled out," citing a possibility that "activity will turn downwards."
He was issuing the IMF's economic outlook for Europe in Brussels, at a time when the Greek-triggered sovereign debt crisis has already claimed its first banking victim in Dexia with a new finance industry credit crunch punishing those most exposed to Greek debt.
The IMF still tips 1.1 percent growth for the eurozone next year, but admits it got earlier 2011 forecasts wrong and angled the 100-page report describing the region's economic prospects on policy changes that would be required if a downturn is confirmed.
Borges said the international lender of last resort would recommend "changing economic policy" away from austerity and back towards US and British-style stimulus.
Citing a "far more risk-averse" mood among investors, he said the best Europe could hope for would be "very modest" growth.
Any "stall" in growth by this year's end would demand a reversal of 2011 fiscal policy where possible, Borges said.
He said: "If ever there was a more significant recession in Europe, and I hope that is not the case but we cannot exclude it, then... all those countries with fiscal leeway might want to consider that."
He specifically ruled out Italy and Spain from turning to stimulus, but the report underlined: "The pursuit of nominal deficit targets should not come at the expense of risking a widespread contraction in economic activity."
Countries with access to funding "at historically low" interest rates "should consider delaying some of their fiscal consolidation," it said, while "monetary tightening in the cyclically more advanced economies will need to be paused or even reversed."
Ahead of new EU growth figures due out on Thursday expected to show the debt-laden currency area slipping dangerously towards negative growth, a closely-watched survey of purchasing managers showed the eurozone already flipped into reverse gear in September.
Falling to its lowest level in more than two years, the final Eurozone Composite Output Index compiled by London-based researchers Markit logged 49.1 points, compared with 50.7 in August. Any score below 50 indicates contraction.
Markit noted "faster rates of contraction in Italy and Spain accompanied by near-stagnation in France and Germany," with chief economist Chris Williamson saying the results provided "confirmation that the eurozone recovery has ground to a halt".
On Tuesday, Standard & Poor's revised downwards its growth projections for the eurozone in 2012 and warned that "the chances of Europe plunging into a new recession now appear more likely".
It put the odds for recession at 40 percent, still predicting growth of 1.1 percent for the eurozone, down from the previous 1.8 percent, but only 0.5 percent for the key Italian economy.
US bank Goldman Sachs, for its part, predicts a "light recession" across the eurozone, although it still tips 3.5 percent global growth.
In late September, the IMF warned that the global economy had entered "a dangerous new phase," saying a fall back into recession for Western economies would have serious knock-on effects for the rest of the globe.
China will continue to lead with a 9.0 percent expansion next year, it nonetheless said.

Expect the recession to come 2012.
Major property markets like Sg, Hk, Kl, etc would be hit and where do investors put their money?
Maybe cheaper real estate like JB....
But Sure got risk one...
In 08-09 where sg prices fall like crazy, JB prices remain steady leh.
Just sit tight through next 2 yrs.
