Was visiting Funan & found that South Asia Computers has closed it's doors for good. It's closure surprise many as there were no closing down sales. Just a sign thanking customers for their support.
A victim of the recession or another a victim rising rentals

Actually it could be neither.
Like some of my business buddies moan that there is none in their family that wants to take over, all preferring to work in offices and not risk it or stay away overseas.
Only logical choice is close shop and retire. You will see a lot more in the next few years when more of such old men retire and have noone to hand over to. Most of these are post WW2 folk (and biz) in the old retirement age.

... If I want variety, I would go to Challenger upstairs and they are also becoming more competitive in pricing their cameras. You can also see that the IT shops in Sim Lim and Funan are dominated by 2 - 3 players. So how to compete?
Wasn't South Asia Computers run by Ah Nehs? If so, I say good riddance to it.
Probably got done in by a double killer blow of high rental and Challenger sucking up its business.
Agree.
My beef noodles and music cds business closed down as none of my children were willing to take over, opting for more cushy jobs at the office !
Agree.
Most young ones do not want to slave hard. Rather they prefer the Air con bank or offices.
My pals are in the heavy industry/machinery business, dried goods and Chinese medical products business.
Turnover is very respectable but none of the children want to do it because "its too hard and not glam(!)".
Oddly working in a bank and berated like a slave and paid pittance is "glam"
less pressure, life long employment assured, bonuses and inflation adjusted pay rise plus promotions. almost 9-5.
ah nehs now run a large chunk of Sim Lim.
