I know of a not-so-small nursery - Tropic Garden Design at Lot 229 Lebuh Raya Pasir Gudang, 81100 plentong. The Manager Ms Susan seems accommodating and besides planting grass, they also sell plants and garden accessories. But as with all businesses, we need to bargain for the best price.

I think Singapore's different. There were good reasons to bring in the various groups of FTs just like other countries. So I don't agree it was a c*ck-up. Singapore businesses and industries need FTs very much and there were some balancing acts done. But the world has since changed and some...

I agree that the never ending prata making is turning off foreign investors. On the one hand, some are trying their best to attract investors to buy into Iskander, but now we heard many voices from the authorities chasing them away. As I told my friends, the unit we want to buy should be for...

New Rules to restrict foreigners. I believe the Selangor restriction is a political move and does not reflect reality. Of course, the effect maybe enclaves of foreigners which may not enjoy the full benefits of the locals. But this will happen many years down the road... At this...

Hi Bros and Sis! My friend just got the keys to their Elita Condo. The paintworks in the apartment was not well done and its colour of beige doesn't appeal to them. They wanted the place to be painted white. As it is within the warranty period, can my friend ask the developer to paint the...

Impact of toll hikes The Malaysian Insider – Sat, Sep 13, 2014 DAP Skudai assemblyman Boo Cheng Hau said Singapore’s new toll rates would have a negative impact on businesses in Johor Baru. He urged both Putrajaya and Singapore to work together to abolish tolls and speed up the rapid...

I believe Singapore waited a long time to match and motorists like me were hoping that JB and KL administrators will rescind the increase in their toll rates. But they have come out with a good excuse, to pay the EDL, if not, who is going to pay. Personally I believe it was a mistake. The...

Hi Brother Wuqi, welcome back. I am new in this forum and after reading some postings, I found that you were very helpful. I am sorry to hear about your parent's health and your Dad's encounter with the "unreasonable" guy. I think he did the right thing by not confronting the issue. Hope...

Thank Bro Grago for your good tip, I never thought of that! I have to tell the contractor to do that when he comes for some repairs next time. Actually this forum is an excellent forum for newbies to learn about JB before they commit to a property. Had I known of this, I would save a lot of...

No problem Grago and thank you for your info. I will contact Alex when I am in JB and see if it is worth the while to install a solar water heater, but I do need cleaning up of my tanks. Some months ago, without knowledge of ADE cleaning process, I turned off the tap to drain the dirty water...

Thank you Kezgtree for the tip. Anyway, it is a passing fancy to get rid of it as most pumps come with some noise. I will get a contractor and tell him to do that.

Thank you Movingaway for sharing your tip. My place is actually done up about nearly a year but the pump when started is too noisy. I am scratching my head on how to remedy that.

Hi Grago, I would appreciate it if you could give me the contact details of your contractor who installed your solar heater. I am thinking of installing one and also if possible get them to clean my tank as well. Thanks. By the way, is your pump noisy when the water is turned on? Mine does...

Last Sunday I went to JB in late afternoon. Unlike previous occasions, the way was open for us and there was no jam. Our return trip the next day was also easy but incoming traffic to JB was congested with many lorries and they were all the way to Singapore checkpoint.....We like that! So...

With due respect, I believe increasing the VEP and tolls may not solve the congestion in the long run. Some people die-die must drive and refuse to take public transport, even MRT in the distant future. As an add-on to the increase, the CIQ staff on both sides must be effective, efficient and...

Ya, we can see like the traffic into Singapore on a Sunday early morning are congested, but there is no traffic at Singapore side entering JB! Looks like the moderated increase of the tolls into Singapore are acceptable to the paying motorists entering Singapore.

If the summons is issued by the Police, it could be compounded at the Police Station. I believe it is written on the summons. But if it is a MPJB summons, it could be compounded at their office next to the JB's Post Office....When we pay (usually in cash) within 14 days, they would give a...
