    Is this information verified? Did you see with ur own eyes that Gardenia has raised it's prices? As for the 6% government tax, this has existed for a very long time. It used to be 5% gov tax (and 10% service charge in restaurants) and was raised to 6% in end 2011, if I remember correctly. This...

    He could be talking about stopping corruption between the local government and certain rich business people. A lot of people supporting BN have a lot to lose financially if PKR wins. Gov projects will be awarded via open tender, unnecessary "payments" will be stopped, public services should...

    I heard there's no such limitation as to the PM must be a Muslim; this was from a 40-min talk show with Tony Pua, a BN MP and a researcher as the panelist.

    It's called scare-mongering to get the Johor voters to vote for BN in Johor. But for those who follow the news from the Internet, we also know DAP & PKR are pro-business. Ini Kalilah! (This is it!)

    This news is reported in The Star; which means it could have been created to scare the voters, regardless of race. The Star is a MCA-owned paper; at this stage of the election, I would easily believe that they will dare to fabricate and print a news such as this.

    Is there a need to share information on the statement made by the MsianElection Commission regarding Sg cars ferrying voters in Msia? On 5th May, Msia will have the General Election. As some of you may know, there have been a request by a committee member of the Election Commission for...

    Hi alnine, Forgive my earlier posting as I think I was too emotional. All these election-related postings on my Facebook really gets to my nerves; and it's all pointing to BN being a corrupt gov. Regarding the ruling on the RC/MC, I do agree with you that all owners should have a chance to...

    The gov has special rights for the bumis; that's fine with the non-bumis. What a lot of people are not happy is the corruption and cronyism that only benefits a few. Here's a simple analogy: the gov takes ur wallet, removes $100 from it and gives the wallet back to you. Then when you say you...

    Hi alnine, you might wanna speak to some Msians to develop a better picture of how it is in a life of a normal Msian. The BN Gov protects only the rights of 1 race of citizens, but make it so that all citizens' rights are seemed to be protected from outsiders. Also, the BN gov claims to have a...

    It's not so much as being a developed nation as knowing that the gov cronies are enriching themselves at the people's expense. By now, Msia should not be having so much poverty and the people of East Msia should have better roads and connectivity. Crime should have dropped and the education...

    At this point of time and looking at the current situation Msia is in; the only thing that matters now is that BN is voted out. They were given 56 yrs to rule and instead of being the richest SEA country because of the oil and timber, Msia is still a developing country. PR may not seem ready...

    Hi Wuqi, please take care of your health. I realised you are a helpful person and will go out on a limb for a friend. But please reserve a big part of your energy and "life force" for your family. After my wife delivered 3 weeks ago, I realized that my daughter has become the single most...

    Hi there, I guess you don't really follow the election news. Msians in Sg are not considered as overseas voters, meaning we have to return to Msia to vote physically.

    How can I move this post to the correct thread? Wuqi, can you help? BN must lose; there won't be a racial riot because the people now have more to lose unlike back in 1969. You sound like a BN cyber trooper trying to getter votes for your masters. I dunno how you can seriously think that BN...

    Renovation to your homes

    Won't the folding gate have more hinges and rollers that could degrade after a few years. Also, one thing to look out for is whether the track is level or not, which could cause the gate to be stuck if the track is not level. But, with all been said, I'm still going to get a flooding gate...

    Renovation to your homes

    If I'm changing my gate, I won't bother about the rust, etc on the gate. Agree with you, no need to report minor defects on areas where it will be covered after renovation. You have a point, the store in Top Ten will show all the parts before you buy. Can also test the bulbs if need too...
