    Erm ... received a private note on another matter. My answer might be helpful to readers here too: We did build our own house, and it was Not a happy experience as we had two hopeless contractors, and the architect was suggested by the first contractor. Check out some more detailed...

    Welcome, fairies, to LH. Yes there were break-ins and robberies, the last known one [you should get on the residents' informal email network] happened on 2nd August 2010 to my husband and myself - this was a robbery with light violence. I think that was the last straw for UEM and the residents...

    The actual journey from Gelang Patah is, of course, less than 20 minutes, BUT ... you have to take into account the immigration/customs on both sides AND whether there is a jam on either side of the second link causeway. An hour is usually safe, but can be a nightmare 2 1/2 hours. [Make that 3...

    There is a Buddhist vegetarian restaurant in Perling, a short walk to the left from Agnee's very popular Indian restaurant (facing the grass) that sells a magical ham cha which is an acid green slightly salty soup sold with rice and chopped vegetables and very palatable, about RM$4.50. I drink...

    May I make a suggestion to those who use the cashcard for ERP purposes: have two cards. One is the one you use most of the time, the other [minimum sum e.g. S$10] you keep in your wallet or somewhere safe in the car. This is because it is possible for the cashcard to be stolen out of the...

    Quote: Now there's another concern about my wife and my travel in/out of SG daily. Our plan is to travel in/out together... either one of us will need to make sacrifices in terms of waking earlier to go in together and staying back late to return to Nusajaya together. But last Thurs, she...

    There is a slight hysterical note when it comes to electrical appliances - the movers are very particular. We lucked onto a really nice young guy from a very decent company who will move household stuff at a very reasonable cost from Singapore to your doorstep. Having checked with many others...

    Apologies for this unhelpful answer about the wild boar bak kut teh: it is not my favourite dish, so I have not tried it out. But there are always many cars at the stall and it has become well known among aficionados of bak kut teh. In Gelang Patah, and presumably many other places in Johor...

    Hi dapbest, East Ledang residents would need not pay (for both swimming pool & gym) but their guests would be charged a nominal fee of RM15 (for the pool or gym facility). At present this is weakly enforced, but the rule.
