Staying in a Universities Apartment

GMD — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 10:34:05 +0800

Hi, i will be going oversea soon to pursue higher education. To be honest, i have not stay outside before and this would be the totally new experience for me. I opted for single room but there will still be house mate's sharing bathroom,living room and kitchen. I need fellow students over here who have experience of staying in dorms/apartments or house sharing. What type of problem could occur and how to solve? etc of scenario? inconsiderate house mate's? (The room will be assigned without any references to race, religion.....). I might ended up with someone from south africa, korea, or other countries.

all advice/suggestion/experience sharing is all welcomed.

To Mod: I am not totally sure this is a right place to post, if this is in a wrong place, do trans it to the right section. tq

Tak Fok Hong Kong Seafood Restaurant

GMD — Sat, 07 Jun 2008 22:24:35 +0800

Today i went to the so called famously known "Tak Fok Hong Kong Seafood Restaurant" after being recommended by my friends for cheap and good crab. So, i decided to go there with a few close friends, first.....we are greeted with bad service by this "yellow hair chinese fellow who look like those selling vcd" where i asked for "shun tao" meaning garlic. he straight away turn away from me, raise his hand and say "mou mou" and walk away. damm rude. then while dining, ordered 1 kg cheese 1 kg salt egg. only salt egg arrived, ask the "yellow hair waiter", he say wait. then until all eat finish already, still did't arrive. then, ask for bill loh, raise hand at the myanmar worker.....he saw me but pura-pura did't see. blardy b*stard....then wait for 10 more minutes. no one came with the receipt. then, only went downstairs to pay at counter. very bad experience. i won't go there again no matter how good is their food and their business. they are too proud and arrogant.....workers are not trained. don't even know how to treat customer well. too bad, they just lost a customer.

Malaysian are not mean't to do great things?

GMD — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 17:53:57 +0800

Hi, so far....have any of u seen an individual/Malaysian that do great things? great inventor? great scientist? great entrepreneur? . Is our education and governmental system is to make sure that we are in line to obey the government and not to be someone special? Please don't give me example like those malaysian part time model/doctor angkasawan funded by government using the people's money for a "Space Passenger" journey. So far, 50 years of nationhood without any outstanding individual from our country that contribute to the world? that is a very sad truth

KLINIK PERGIGIAN ZAINUDDIN DAN ORTHODONTIK

ADDRESS: No. 36-1 Jalan Tanjung SD13/1
Bandar Sri Damansara
52200 Kuala Lumpur

CASE: OVERCHARGE MY FRIEND BY 40% OF NORMAL RATE.

Hi, my friend recently told me not to visit this clinic after his experience with this rude and unethical doctor. He went to visit this doctor for the first time where, he need to repair his chipped teeth. The doctor scares him off by telling him that his teeth is in really bad condition. However, this friend of mine only manage to repair one teeth that day because he charge RM 100.00 for a teeth repair and my friend only have RM 100+ that time, as he wasn't expecting serious teeth problems. Then, he told me that he visited another doctor today, that told him very precisely how many teeth he have problem with. In the end, the doctor only charge RM 60.00 a teeth for the same services.

This is why i am here to advice residents of Bandar Sri Damansara, Sri Damansara, Kepong, Maluri, Manjalara, Aman Puri to visit this clinic at ur own risk. For those who have visited this clinic, feel free to share your experience over here.

For those who have visited dentist normally, feel free to share the rate of teeth repair over here. is RM 60.00 the standard price?
