Took my wife and son to the Columbia asia hospital today, was pretty impressed, total just spent 155 for son's fever and wife's condition. Very professional doctors.

Turned out one is living at The Gateway too. Pretty nice place. Staff speaks English pretty well and the small cafe has not bad food. The chicken wings, noodles with soup and chicken chop were just some of the things we tried.

That's nice to hear, I hope they keep it that way. I must say in this instant, Malaysia boleh !

Satu Malaysia!!! I didn't have great expectations other than the last time we did a quick look but this time, saw their facilities, etc. Not bad and price is good as well and doctors don't seem to be in a hurry to rush you out. Can talk about properties even, one of the doctors from Penang even shook my hand when i went in. Very polite. Only later found out he is a neighbour in HH. :smile:

I went there once on a weekend , the Mall is built around the very old taman , road leading in and out are all jam pack , how the residents there can tahan ? Wont it be worst if the condos are all fully built ?
I feel more comfortable shoping at our side of the taman leh , since everything you see there can be found here also mah .

Yes it is, guys the only thing that attracts me to KSL is........
The gaming accessories for the XBOX Kinetic/PS3, etc are really really "REASONABLY" priced.
They have wider selection than most places.

Both my son and myself loves it. :smile:

Bro , need to make appointment ? can we simply drive in there in time of an emergency, even for foreigner like us ?

Hi bro, you can make appointment if its something routine or if you want to schedule something with a specialist. Else yes emergency room is open to us, i had the chance to have a good look around today, i feel pretty reassured. My normally quiet wife became a super believer after today.

Just bring your passport/NRIC or have your passport number handy. We got a very warm reception but that could be because i am usually a very smiley person.

haha, we almost wanted to park in front of a terrace house, but decided not because it might be dangerous at the busy road. The residents might complain. It is that row directly opposite the mall, and we have difficulty moving from our parked position to re enter the lane because the cars are moving non stop.

But I am sure the houses there are worth a lot now.

I missed the marlbough college talk at LF on Sunday, anyone in this forum attend? Care to share??

I know for a fact, 2 of my learned overseas (read ang mo) friends were there. They are buying houses specifically only because of this school. Made me wonder until they pointed out its history. Then a 3rd overseas friend went too.

I see, hope he didn't charge us HH rate. Just kidding!!! Very friendly and unlike the doctors i was used to, the doctors here, be it clinics, chinese physicians, doctors at hospitals really have time for you. Some will talk even like old friends before sending you on your way.

Sometimes i really enjoy being here, a bro passed me a car on the weekend to test drive. Turbo Wira, nothing fantastic but its 1.8 and accelerates pretty well. Parts cheap too and so is maintenance. Passed to me just to let me try out the fun of driving turbo car.

Wuqi bro, I must say that you are not far from attainning 'enligtenment'! You wisdom brings you good luck, good health and a blessed life! Keep it up! For whatever people owe you, 'ti gong' will give you back! Because 'ti gong xio gong kia'! :smile:

Then i really need "ti gongs" help, i went to burn round josssticks for dad, sister, mum and wife but forgot to burn for myself hehe. First time because i didn't bring enough money, 2nd time was just a quick detour during lunch hour. I just wish for a good husband for my elder sister and good health for the rest especially
mum and dad.
