That is good news! I'm quite sure they won't just have condos, hotels, bizs and theme parks only.

Really hope Iskander can succed. Maybe if have 2 or 3 different themed mega malls with lots of reasonably priced good food in Medini and PH will have more pull?

Yes for now. What I meant was will Sentosa still be able to attract people when Iskander is fully up and running including all it's planned theme parks for all ages, though I guess it might not be in the next 10 years. Why visit a place with only 1 theme park and not one with 6 different ones...

The old malays don't name it Pulau Blakang Mati for nothing. It's past unsuccessful history has been proven many times. Wonder how long can USS or this present Sentosa last when all the theme parks in Iskander are opened?

Tried those sticky traps before. Can trap only 2 or 3 for a single trap but still plenty always around. Looks very gruesome too. Egg shells will scare every single one away to your neighbour's houses and they will start wondering why the sudden increase of influx of lizards. Better not invite...

Good points regarding the cons of setting up a maid hire agency. Yes, probably not for us. About those egg shells, not so sure. Maybe when those house lizards see the broken egg shells, they think there are chickens around which might eat them? Anyway, it works well for my place where lizards...

I think setting up a part time maid business in JB has good potential but must have contacts. For lizard shit problem, try placing few empty egg shells (just a little hole to empty the inside for own consumption) on window ledges or where you can often see lizards hanging around. Works quite...

I wonder how many condo projects are less than 50% sold? Esp those with many smaller size units. Can see market is going to be very quiet for some time and will be very difficult to sell the rest of the units. Condo projects are suppose to complete in 3 years if I'm not wrong. Will the weaker...

LHL, don't b.s. lah! But why I see so many foreign grads here whether real or fake, all have happy outcome leh? They're still here, that can only mean they have good jobs right? So why our local grads not guaranteed but foreign ones guaranteed happy outcome? So actually who are you serving...

Well, that's for now. Wait till all the condos in PH and Medini are ready in 5-10 yrs' time. Even those staying in Danga bay will use 2nd link if causeway jams becomes even worse by then. Unless those sending kids to schools in Sg don't mind leaving their houses at 4am or even earlier. So 3rd...

Re: The Epic :) Very good point. Those hundreds of millions PRCs will buy up everything everywhere as they continue to become even richer in the next 30 yrs while our salaries remain stagnant. So it's very important for govts to protect their local's interests and not sellout the country like...

1997, no printing of $$$ by developed countries. Interest rate much higher then. 1997, PRCs not in the markets. And you shld know what their population is like and their craze over owning properties compared to other races. Also they can work 16 hrs or more a day, up to 365 days a year. Not...

Re: Thieves make off with handbag when wedding guest goes to washroom In the past, there's no such thing as G&G in Johor, so the fear is always there. With G&G, the fear is much, much lesser although occasion break-ins still do happen. SG is always trying to paint itself as a safe country to...

Re: Thieves make off with handbag when wedding guest goes to washroom Soon will have G&G concept for Sg landed housing too?

Re: The Epic :) Really depends on how successful Iskander is 15-20 yrs from now. Plenty of unknowns. But this is the risk we have to take. If successful, population will grow, thus easy to sell. If not, buy landed is still better than buying condo. At least owning some land will still have...

When houses are new, it's ok if all are uniform. But when the estate is more than 15yrs old, some will want to rebuild to the latest design. Just like in SG where you can see modern giant 3 1/2 sty and old single sty side by side. Not 3 not 4. Wonder what will LF says to Bayou Creek owners who...

Yes, but unless the jams at the immigration can be solved, residents will only use them as weekend homes. So for now, the liveability will only be during weekends.

Hi Market, viewed P2 showhouse a few mths back. On the other side of the canal opp the showhse, there will be some commercial shops with another canal separating it from the mangroves. Thus, only limited no. of lots facing those mangroves. Yes, rather tranquil.

Oic. Yes, most probably we're around the same age. And wishing you and your loved ones the very best!

Hi Joe, you seems to be very fond of Tanglin Halt. You lived around there before? That blk 71 in that picture was opposite my blk 72 when I lived there in the early 60s till late 70s. Best place to live in my life so far! Ha ha!
