Re: For those already staying at your Terrace House/ Semi-D / Bungalow , Share your.

wow, your utilities are really low.

our water is min Rm 10/mth even if use less than the amount.
electricity between Rm 70 - 160 (depends on when the TNB guy comes over to read the meter and also if air-con is used during warm days)

That means I can still have my arowana in mly... Electric 24/7:D
 
Re: For those already staying at your Terrace House/ Semi-D / Bungalow , Share your.

want to leave as little carbon footprint as possible whence I can. I was also sort of egged on when I heard a bungalow is in the midst of building in a neighboring precinct with 100% sustainability in being off the grid for electricity and harvesting rainwater etc. I feel that sometimes, the cheaper everything encourages people to increase consumption negating the savings across currency and cost of living differences. Cost is one of the reasons that drove me from SG to settle in JB so I am mindful to continue to stretch the dollar beyond the 2.39 times. :cool:

Bro I didn't know staying JB also so stressful huh??? Have to save water and electric for them?? :D

Wah my's garment so good ? Got subsidy ?? Less than $20 free? Why garment in sg not like that?? Very disappointed!! Garment here all money minded and money face if not where they can get so much salary??
Luckily I made a smart choice to live in JB which many of u here r --- SMART! One day in sg will be like never stop paying until MATI !! :mad:

This is intended to help those low income families as well as encourage frugal use of power/water consumption. Of course, weekenders over here also enjoy the waiver, not that we are complaining :)

abugumgum
are you staying in a condo? i think the charges for water are worked out a little differently.
i used to pay minimum RM16/month when i was staying in one some time back.

Yes, we are.

Cancelled Impiana. Was also looking at NI Phase 7B at that time.
Yes, I know about the appreciation of property here, but we prefer to have a base in Sgp, esp BTO flat is one of the good ways to park CPF $$.

Now, we can only rent and try to live the best of both cities :D
If JB gets more expensive, we will have to re locate once more.

I also think it is good to get BTO if qualify, after 5 years rent out and draw out CPF indirectly..if not no other way to take out the CPF the way things are going..

No need to give away. Just do what others always suggest, put it in a big bag, put air into the bag. Put in your boot and cover with a pail. Drive in late at night at 2nd link. Its not as if you are smuggling lots of fishes as this is your own fish.
 
Re: Can I bring my live arowana from sg to MY?

Nice fish by the way, give it a new home in Johore. :)

Hahahaha bro u r the best!!
My friend also say like that... Thks for yr reply also. This aro is very tame.. It knows me when I come back from work and it will twist its body when it want me to feed. I used to have many tanks at home with 1 aro in a tank. It's nice when u look at it swimming and no worries.. I going to order a tank in MY this Monday.

Thks bro for yr support, it will be a waste to give away or put in the wild maybe it will die if I do that...:)

Ok thks bro for the advise, btw what happen to u that time u kana stop? Tot hand carry cannot have water?...
Fighting fish is ok, cos arowana is CITIES controlled fish, it cost from few hundreds to few thousands, thats why they more strict for that, ask my friend to bring for me better... He face more fierce than mine:D
