I am planning to bring my dog from Spore to JB. Does anybody know the procedures involved ? Is it a very cumbersome process, and does the dog have to be quarantined for a period of time at JB side? Thx a lot for your info.

Thanks a lot Potter,

Try to take some loan in M$ when buying houses in Msia as a natural hedge against currency movements. Don't pay cash at one go even if you have the money. M$ unlikely to move up against S$ in foreseeable future with crude oil prices projected to stay low for quite a while and govt balance sheet...

Re: Need some design advice on grills. I need to fix grilles on windows at my house at JB. Could you please pm me your contractor's contact. Thanks

Hi there. Have not been around for quite some time. Just starting to furnish the water-fronting house at Water Edge Residences and staying there for a few days over the New Year. The river and the mangrove swamp view is just so beautiful. I think slightly more than 50% of the houses now have...

It's ludicrous to even think of building a flyover over the mature housing estates of Taman Kebun Teh and Melodies garden! No enlightened or responsible authority would ever dare to think about it. The design plan must be stopped. Who would ever dare to invest in Iskandar anymore, Malaysians or...

Great to have you all as future neighbours. Hope to move there soon too. Really lovely place.

Ok, I have been thinking for quite some time why nobody had tried or talked about this method before and I stumbled across this thread of yours. Do post yr experience to enlighten us. I had tried a couple of times going into JB via causeway and parked my car at Woodlands, and taking the bus...

Have to look at each estate individually. Taman Kebun Teh is a relatively small estate with about less than 100 units of houses, mainly bungalows. It's quite easy to gate it up and each family needs to contribute only a small sum each to secure the whole place and the neighbours will be more...

Met up with the Chairman of the residents' committee 2 weeks ago who stays across my house, (A little promotion again, sorry) whose 2 sons are working in S'pore as a medical specialist and research doctorate, and a daughter in Australia as a medical doctor, and another son as an Investment...

I bought a bungalow with 10'000 sf of land at Taman Kebun Teh, a place where many of the old money of JB stay. (Sorry, a bit of promotion for the Estate). The whole place only has roughly less than 100 units of houses, about 90% bungalows and 10% Semi-Ds. Many have already been rebuilt into...

Ha Ha! And if you want to experience the Singapore of '80s and '90s, you have to go across the causeway, where many of your neighbours in your new housing estates and in the malls will be people "like you" driving S plates. Coming back to S'pore will be like going to China, South continent or...

The factor I value most is space. When I first came to Singapore in the '80s with about 3 million population. It was very nice. Now it is as bad as Hong Kong, and certain parts of City more crowded than Hong Kong. Like other brothers and sisters say, I had better prepare to "run road" to a...

New vast, coordinated planned development in Singapore is at the Marina Bay. It's beautiful, but they are office towers which could extract higher economic value from the land. It could't allocate, and probably doesn't have relatively massive land for a new planned residential/township...

Well, My wife is from Bukit Timah. She is pretty all right. Ha ha! What I meant was the bulk of Bukit Timah developments were built a few decades ago with old designs and inferior planning. Newer ones were developed in little pockets here and there without the benefits of having a large piece of...
