Sole propreitorship income tax

Y_vonne — Tue, 18 Nov 2025 17:36:49 +0800

Hi so im employed and working under a company all the while and has been declarring my income tax via form BE.
This year 2025, i decided to try out dropshipping and it required me to set up a business registration, so i set up a sole prop under my name. However, i have not made any sales so far from it.
In this case, for 2025 income tax which i will have to submit in 2026, how do i go about for this situation? Do i declare it under BE or form B?

How much should one sell used camera lens

Y_vonne — Fri, 24 Nov 2023 07:57:40 +0800

Hi, I have bought a sigma used sigma 18-35mm f1.8 canon mount around ~RM1700-1800 2-3 years back. Now I’m planning to resell it. How much is a reasonable price to resell it?

The lens usability is still fine, but the cosmetics looks old where the rubber has white stain/dirt, the wording is fading, some surface scratches on the lens

I have read some mention 20-30% off what you bought, but i am not sure if it applies to older lens conditions.
When i bought it at that price the condition was also quite used already.

When should one credit a photographer?

Y_vonne — Wed, 24 Mar 2021 08:18:42 +0800

Situation 1: person A works under a photography company ABC as a photographer/second photographer/assistant, when photos are sent to clients, do client need to credit person A AND company ABC, or ONLY company ABC, or they do not need to credit as all as they paid for the photos

Situation 2: person A voluntarily helps person B/company ABC as second photographer/assistant, does client need to credit person A, or only person B/company ABC

take note that situation 1 involves someone who is officially working under a company, and situation 2 is when someone is only shadowing a photographer or helping as a second photographer

Does person A’s photos automatically becomes company ABC’s photos when he/she works as a second photographer under them? Can company ABC send person A’s photos to client as their own photos?

Photography pricing rate

Y_vonne — Mon, 08 Mar 2021 16:18:47 +0800

Hi guys just starting out in the photography business, would like to know roughly ways to charge product/food photography especially starting out
Might seem like noob questions but i really need answers 🙏🏻

1) do u charge by product or by hour

2) if the client’s product include many products eg ~30-50, whats the best way to charge

3) how long of duration is considered reasonable from getting the product to sending the photos

4) if a client require product photos, but needed only a few photos with a “model” to showcase their product (eg fashion products)do u think this is a diff category of photography and shud be charged differently as “models” arent “props” basically

Would appreciate tips and comments!!

Used or New Lens

Y_vonne — Mon, 05 Oct 2020 20:33:23 +0800

I’m planning to buy the sigma 18-35mm f1.8 lens for my sony a6600. I was researching the price..and the new lens and used lens would have a price diff of around rm900. Wondering if the extra rm900 is worth to get a new lens, or buying a secondhand lens is sufficient

Sony A6600 vs a6400

Y_vonne — Sat, 03 Oct 2020 15:10:50 +0800

Can’t decide which i should get..the a6600 or the a6400 for the diff around rm1k plus(body only)
With the a6600 i have the Ibis, wondering if it’s worth the the extra 1k plus...
opinions? Is the a6600 worth it over the a6400.
I am using this for photography only, so the video comparison don’t matter much to me. I am trying to upgrade my camera as ive been using my old nikon for a thousand years now and i’m not progressing with it anywhere far..

On a side note, planning to get the body only, and then i’ll get the sigma 18-35 f1.8 lens withe the mc11 converter

Thanks

CIMB credit card

Y_vonne — Fri, 14 Aug 2020 09:44:25 +0800

Recently i called to CIMB number 03-62047788 from cimb website to enquire about something. Then at the end of the call, the guy added something about credit card. He said cimb will send me credit card etc etc, and need to confirm some of the details with me... need to “kemaskini”, details like workplace, occupation, address, emergency contact, marital status etc etc etc..then he transfered the call to an automated msge reading out some tnc and press 1 to confirm.. then he said if lulus will send sms.
Then after the call ended, i received an email from cc.pdstm@cimb.com sending me product disclosure sheet on the cimb islamic credit card.
Not long After that I received an sms saying your application for credit card is unsuccessful.

May i know is this legit?? Will they sell you credit card as well even if you called them yourself, cuz normally what i get is they ll call you.

go for interests/connection or caring/niceness?

Y_vonne — Tue, 18 Jun 2019 18:53:39 +0800

Ok, so would you go for

A) a guy who shares the same interests with you, and you feel like you connect with him and know him already. You have that “click” with him. You just feel comfortable and yourself around him even if you only know him. BUT, he doesnt really know how to care for you, and really you’re the one making all the decisions, and you don’t feel like you’re protected around him but you’re the one having to do the protecting instead

Or

B) a guy who cares for you and protects you and is really nice. He does things a guy does and is really sweet. But, you guys dont really share the same interests. But you guys talk and have fun but maybe it isnt that strong of a connection or instant click.

So yeah which is more important in a relationship and which would you go for

What do guys think

Y_vonne — Mon, 18 Mar 2019 19:21:18 +0800

Ok if a guy and a girl has been talking for a few months or so everyday, and things are going good and you go on dates. And the guy tells the girl she makes him happy and mean the world and that he meant it. So note theyve been texting everyday. But one day right after a date, the date was fine there were laughter and all and it was nice, they said their goodbyes, blah blah, but then the next day, the guy doesnt text back anymore. completely vanished. He hasnt “seen” the girls messages, nor her stories etc. vanished. Just a few days before the date he was telling her how she has his heart and is the world to him and want to go on a date with her blah blah..

Do guys really loose interest that suddenly?
How do guys give sign that maybe im not that interested anymore, or do they even give signs.

Or has he been sucked up by some magnetic alien force
