Me stay in Permas Jaya area. kekeke...a lot of Bukit Indah people in this thread hor...Legolad bro also suggested around Gelang Patah...

Most do, with extra costs for delivery and SG taxes (probably the GST component). Important thing to ask & consider - if the item got defect then how?

hi, can anyone advise how to source for part-time house cleaners? thanks in advance.

Aircon - Speed Cool Air Cond Engineering, Mr Teh - 013-742 7372 , he does quite a few installation of the air cons there (you'll know by the stickers he paste on the air con - good way of marketing). Straight forward guy and prices quoted are competitive. Alarms - ask for contacts from...

Renovation done. Now for the CLEAN UP before moving in...any bros/sis have any good contacts to share? Vendors who basically handle everything from washing the toilet to making sure the floors are cleaned and window grills wiped, etc...

MY side is relatively new (but looks aged) so upgrade may be a long time away. Besides, where got place for upgrade?

In JB (and very likely everywhere else in the world), it's caveat emptor...so do your research before deciding whether a particular shop is having "good" price. Johor Jaya area - Jalan Rosmerah 2/10 -> This particular street alone covers many home requirements - wallpaper, electrical...

Am DIY-ing with different contractors as well, so share with you my experience. Your basic reno is mostly mutually exclusive except for window film & grills. I would assume the order would be something like: 1) window film 2) grills - is probably a good idea to install this before the rest of...

Great ideas and comments. I'm really hoping the relevant authorities have thought about this and addressing this...however, uncertainties looms ahead... Re JB transport/ infrastructure - the cracks are showing. There are no clear public transport policies, no clear zoning restrictions...

Don't know how much you trust Wiki but here's the link to the background - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johor_Bahru_Eastern_Dispersal_Link_Expressway Look at route background and controversies chapter. Another google search reveals that before the furor, it was proposed to charge at RM15.30...

I do that Bro. I console myself it's all for a better tomorrow. I used to borrow book audio CDs from NLB to pass the time but got tired of it. Looking at other bro/sis who can suggest what they do to pass time?

Thanks Reds! Very useful info...

Is Larkin your consideration because of the bus station (ie. the causeway buses)? Just a caution that with the upcoming rail link between SG and Johor, the buses route etc. might be impacted. Since Malaysia probably can't move the CIQ hence besides Tri-tower, you can consider Bukit chagar...

Valid points. Adding on. 4. Do your homework and scout the surrounding area. Larkin can be your dream retirement nest if it fits your needs but if the surrounding is filled with problems (ie. abandon pjts, facing cemetery or main road) best to avoid... 5. Make sure you spread your nest egg...
