Widow selling food at Bandar Kinrara BK 2/13

GirlOnaMission — Tue, 28 Sep 2021 21:27:57 +0800

Hi, my widowed aunt is selling Chinese food(non-halal) at Bandar Kinrara BK 2/13. Previously she and her husband sell chap fan/economic mixed rice but she has no choice but to close the shop because her husband passed away. Sorry, there is no delivery service, she is selling it to the people staying near her that can go to her house to collect the food. So if you happen to stay near her and can collect the food yourself, please kindly give her some business as she is widowed and has a son to take care... Please if you have friends or family or relatives that stay nearby Bandar Kinrara BK 2/13 please share this with them or perhaps just copy and paste this and share it out in your facebook? to help give her some business. If you would like to order food from her, her name and phone number is Ah Peng, 017-204 8368 (Speaks Cantonese/Mandarin/Hakka). Thank you very much for all kind souls out there! May God abundantly bless you for helping a widow!

Updates: About the food menu, the menu varies according to days and it will also change weekly, so is best you give her a call and ask her directly or leave her a voice message in Cantonese/Mandarin/Hakka.

Update 2: Thank you all, for your ideas and suggestions to help. Some of the ideas she has already evaluated but unfortunately there are difficulties but thank you anyway.

Kind Request: Please don't turn this thread into arguments or trolling. Thank you.

GirlOnaMission — Thu, 27 Jun 2019 09:03:40 +0800

Hi all,

I am new to corals and recently I just started to learn about it and am thinking may be I could start a marine tank in future...
But before any of that, I am taking my time to learn now... Does anyone know if it is ok legally to bring home dead corals from the beach in Malaysia like Redang beach, Port Dickson etc?

And is it illegal to take anything live from the sea? (live corals or clown fish etc).

Thanks in advance.

Hi all experienced aquarium/fish care takers,
I will really appreciate if you could share what you think about this as an aquarium stand with your experience... Thanks in advance!

I am thinking of using IKEA TARVA 3-drawer chest, pine (solid wood) as the stand for my aquarium sized 50cmx32cmx34cm (54 liter = almost 15 gallon), does anyone know if this is okay?

Need help, first time car trade in matter

GirlOnaMission — Wed, 26 Dec 2018 14:59:34 +0800

Hi people,
I need some help here for some knowledge/info about car trade in matter. Is my first time to trade in a car (trade in viva, buy proton), no experience at all. The situation is like this, we want to trade in our viva but the salesman at proton couldn't find one to take our car at 12k so he say he would help to sell the car off by one of his partner/friend at this price. We signed some papers to hand over viva to let his partner/friend to sell it. And he say his partner/friend would try his best to sell it off by middle of 2019 JAN. Initially I offered 10k for deposit of the proton, at this moment, his partner/friend haven't sell off the viva yet and proton salesman is now asking for the deposit to book and lockdown the proton dy. He knows very well that I have mentioned many times, if trade in/selling off viva fail, I will cancel this proton purchase. Now, viva haven't sell yet and he is asking deposit to lockdown the proton, while stock last and discount 2k still available before next year. In whatapp, I ask him, could I get back the 10k deposit if I cancel this purchase meaning if viva fail to sell off, he didn't reply my question, he reply with 'can we talk on the phone', I will call him today after work or tomorrow. I know some people in my life got cheated, scammed even by their own family so I get very skeptical on things... Should I or can I just pay a 1k deposit first at this moment to lockdown the proton and after viva sell off, I pay the remaining 9k. Do any of you have this experience? Please advise. Thanks in advance!

Edit add (3:40pm): I just remember that on 6th Dec, we already paid Rm300 for deposit, ins't this for the lockdown? I don't understand why now 26th Dec, he is asking for me to pay the rest 10k when viva is not even sold yet... is this getting more fishy?

Scam targets your kindness-motorbike breakdown

GirlOnaMission — Mon, 15 Oct 2018 12:13:59 +0800

Hi people, I am wondering if there is a new scam going around in Selangor? or may be just the whole Malaysia? They target on your kind soul to hand out money so that they can take taxi and go home. This happened to me twice and the content is so similar I am wondering if this is a scam that target on people's sympathy.

The 1st woman (2013):
Tells me her motorbike broke down and she dropped her wallet, she came from far away places for interview and now she can't go home, she needs like RM35+. She will return me the money, she can give me her phone number. Tells me she sent her motorbike to the workshop dy then the mechanic borrow her motorbike to go around look for help. Like if you dropped your wallet, I wonder if the workshop willing to fix your bike without money? I don't know.... I just find her explanation kind of kelam kabut and doesn't quite make sense...

The 2nd woman (2018):
Tells me her motorbike chain broke. Like she is Punjabi she won't tipu people. She will return me the money, she can give me her phone number. She is at Subang and she needs money to go back to her home far away at Kajang. She has RM20 but still lacking RM22 for taxi. And she approached me at the bank area... so like she still have her wallet with her that has RM20 but she don't have any bank account debit card? that has more than RM22 that she could withdraw?

My doubt:
If your phone no battery to call for help.... like you can first take taxi, arrive home, can ask your family come out pay right? or borrow money from your neighbor to pay first then return them later.

I would like to know if similar incident like this have happened to you before or not?
Because I would like to know if this is a real scam or not? and if is frequent then it could really be a scam that targets on people's sympathy....
