Deposit CNY cash into CCB in Malaysia

Darrowshire — Sat, 04 Dec 2021 19:46:51 +0800

Hi guys, I have some China CNY cash on hand and I also have a China Construction Bank (CCB) account which I created some times ago back in China. Now I’m back in Malaysia due to the pandemic and I wish to deposit these cash into CCB account.

My question:
What’s the cheapest way to deposit these CNY cash to my CCB account?

I have a few method in minds but never tried it so not sure if they work:
1) Go to CCB branch in KL and deposit CNY cash there. Problem: not sure if it’s doable, the fee involved and I’m living far far away from KL...

2) Open a Maybank foreign currency account, deposit the CNY cash into that account and then transfer that money to CCB
Problem: I’m not sure whether can deposit CNY cash into the account directly, the fee involved in deposit and transfer from Maybank to CCB

To anyone who have done this or have some sort of ways for my situation, I appreciate if u can shed some light for me. Thanks in advance.

Darrowshire — Tue, 25 May 2021 16:06:42 +0800

I wish to seek some advices on a personal matter. Here's the story...
My father is part of a family business and he usually signs the document given to him blindly (Bad practice...)
Recently I heard a news that someone was unknowingly being used to borrow money from bank.
This worries me abit because my father could have sign a document that agreed to use his name to borrow money for someone else or company... (Sorry, I'm not financial guy. Don't even know if this is doable. Hope you understand)

So is there a way to check if your name is being used to borrow money from banks? Can CTOS help? or there another way is much appreciated!
Thanks in advance Sifu-sifu here

Question about buying IPO thru Maybank

Darrowshire — Tue, 29 Sep 2020 12:03:55 +0800

Hello guys, I wanted to buy IPO through Maybank. I haven't done it before, so I got a bit confused on the process.

Firstly, what I know is that u will need a CDS account and I got that already. After that, you need to apply for IPO.
I believe at the same time u will be required to make deposit for acquiring the IPO share.

What I do not know is what after that:
Lets say if I managed to get the allocation (though usually a fraction of what u applied), what happen next?
I believe the bank will take my deposit and issue the IPO share in my CDS account.
How do i sell the IPO share afterward? Do I sell them through trading account?

Does it matter that mine is Z001 - Non-Margin Tempatan?

Appreciate u guys can share what knows on this matter.

How some chef runs multiple successful restaurant

Darrowshire — Sun, 07 Jun 2020 22:25:44 +0800

I have come across this website
My Webpage

I always fascinate and wonder how these successful chefs run multiple Michelin star restaurants.
U can only be at 1 place at a time. Do they rotate around to be present at each of their restaurants?
Or they trained up their apprentices to take over each restaurants? Then what if the apprentices run away and start up their own restaurants, since they are quite formidable themselves too?

Or r these apprentices offered a portion of that restaurants they running (kinda like partly own the restaurant) so they likely not gonna run away?

Btw, I'm not sure this the right section to post. Figured that it is related to "restaurant business" so it should belong to "Finance, BUSINESS and Investment house".

Stockguru legit?

Darrowshire — Fri, 10 Apr 2020 21:48:40 +0800

Hello guys, recently I came across "Stockguru" in Facebook. Here is their link to their facebook page and official website:
https://web.facebook.com/stockgurumalaysia/?_rdc=1&_rdr
https://stockguru.my/

They claimed that, with the help of their advice, you can get high return from stock investment in a relatively short amount of time.
I am not really into whether they really work but more concern if they are legit.
I worried that it is a scam that they would run away or would not do anything once you paid.
Their result could be forged with some editing software or staged conversation

For your info, they are offering 3 packages with different features:
1) RM 480 for 1 year
2) RM 300 for 6 months
3) RM 4800 for lifetime

So, have any of you guys tried their service? Or do you think they are legit?
I have googled them but couldn't find much info other than their facebook page and official website.
I am newbie in this field. would love to hear some advice from you guys

Also, i apologize if there is already thread talking about them or if i have posted at the wrong section of the forum.

Certifying document for BEM Registration

Darrowshire — Sun, 18 Mar 2018 21:47:09 +0800

Hi guys,

I am currently applying for Board of Engineers Malaysia and it requires some documents to be certified.
It is stated that the person who certify must be an active Professional Engineer registered with BEM (need to state the name and registration number).

Please help to shed some light on where I am stuck:
I am now working in Singapore and I would like to know who or where I can approach to have my documents certified.

Besides this, has anyone manage to pull through with other profession?
I know a common method is that you can go to Watson and ask pharmacist to certify.

Any suggestion on other workaround is also much appreciated.

PS, sorry if this is not the right place to post this my question.

Regards,
