Staying in Zen Residence

shawn-mode — Wed, 01 May 2013 12:52:17 +0800

Hi experts,

Good day, need your kind advise and thoughts on the matter.
I was rushing and actually brainwashed by the property agent.
I paid deposit for a condo in Zen Residence. I just got to know some bad rumors about this:

I have listed my detail information based on my diggings.

1. 2 separate event of brutal killings in the last 2 weeks.
Which is a less than 300 meters from the Condo for both killings!

Event 1:

Event 2:

2. Places are full or Nigerian and Arabians.

3. Guard told me there is a monsoon drain that easily got flooded during heavy rain.

There are also complaints by the owner against the developer on the matter.
Also these drains are not walled with concrete and it is just beside the condo.

4. Place has 2 large Indian temple that normally have very loud event.
They perform this quite often which may cause discomfort to some.

5. Maintenance is quite poor. With quite an expensive maintenance chargers per house.
Condo does not seem like its 1 year old, seems older.

6. Prices of the condo actually went down from 480K for 1211sq lot last year to now 480K for 1411sq lot.

7. Central City is a very problematic developer and this is one of their first. The 3 tier condo access is not working from my later investigation of the place.

Going for 1411sq which was offered only for 480K. Build area is big and the design is nice, especially the balcony. That's what draw me in the first place.

Should I cancelled my intention and try to get for refund?
Thank you for your time.

Corporate Credit Card Liability.

Hi, need some advise here. Not sure where to start.

I receive a letter stating from the bankers lawyer suddenly asking for settlement for the corporate card.
Actually there is no contract between me and the bank. The lawyers are stating because I accept and use the card so I am liable for it?
Doesn't it make sense. Should I discuss and nego with them or bang them with another lawyer.
On the summon the gave me there non at all the details or involvement of the company. It is not my credit card nor I have apply for it.
How can its my liability?

What business would you do if you have 350k?

Let say if you would opted to open a 350K business?
What business would you invest in. Any lucrative franchise available?

Hi,

My company is providing a notebook for my daily usage.
I am mainly in IT management and support for the whole of Asia region.

Recently I has opted for the Dell new E6400 and quite satisfy with the specs.
Just got and email from my US counterpart that they planning to provide me with M6300.
To be honest E6400 is good enough as I prefer portability and normal usage,
then again its not everyday your company is wanting to give you a 8000 notebook.

M6300

Pro's
Intel 9500 Processor
Nvidia FX 1600 512MB
200GB 7200RPM

Con's
4KG Weight
2 Hours Battery life
Old P965 Centrino Chipset
M6300

______________________________________

E6400
Intel E8400 Processor
250GB 5400RPM
14" LED Display
6 Hours battery life with 9 cell
Intel I45 Centrino2 Chipset
Better looks build quality
Cheaper price by RM2000
Light weight at 2KG

Con's
Slow processor
Slow graphics
Slow hardisk

Only drawback is the old Dell chassis design and its very big at 4KG not to mention the battery life.
I have been giving all the thought and still cant decide. I hope you gents could advise me on this matter.

Thanks in advanced.

Need to ask and need advise.
