Price for aesthetic laser treatment

soohwei — Fri, 11 Oct 2024 10:30:24 +0800

I tried Google but I failed to find the price for "laser genesis" treatment.
I guess every aesthetic clinics will have their own pricing strategy and will not reveal it to the public.
But, I want to know the market price so that I won't sign up for the package if it is overprice.

Recently, I got this offer: 10x laser genesis with complimentary of 6x hydration injection OR 10x laser eye genesis + 10x laser neck genesis @ RM4,800
So, I wonder whether this offer is really valuable.
(Meaning, I go lie down one time, already spend RM480 )

Possible to share the price offer for laser treatments?

Job Progression in Malaysia

soohwei — Thu, 26 Aug 2021 16:45:50 +0800

Hi, I know that every company differs in policy but what is the general trend for these?

1. What is the general job levels in Malaysia?
Entry Level Officer > Junior Executive > Senior Executive > Assistant Manager > Manager > Senior Manager > Head of Department > Assistant Director > Director > C-suites
Did I missed out anything or something is wrong with this?

2. Usually will take how long to move from one level to another higher level? Any benchmark like yrs of experience?
E.g.: like after 2 years, from junior to senior.

3. How about increment % ? Will the percentage gets higher when moving up the levels?

Thank you in advance for sharing.

FATCA & CRS

soohwei — Thu, 07 Jan 2021 10:26:23 +0800

Anyone receives this?
What is this about?
Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) & Common Reporting Standard (CRS)

Please be informed that regulations based on the FATCA and CRS require financial institutions such as Maybank to obtain your relevant tax information with respect to your financial account(s) that are reported to the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia, as agreed between intergovernmental countries' tax authorities.

If didn't fill up and submit to bank, what will happen?
The bank will forcefully obtain personal information or will close down the account?

p/s: this letter is sent to a non Malaysian resident personal account holder, not company account holder.

Thank you.

Dental & Optic benefits

soohwei — Fri, 18 Sep 2020 10:10:59 +0800

Hi, wondering whether is it only big companies will provide dental and optic (spectacles) benefits for their employees?
How does it work? claim basis/ insurance company/ panel?
Amount up to how much per year? Depends on position/ number of years served?

Disposal of Hand Sanitizer

soohwei — Thu, 23 Jul 2020 14:40:26 +0800

Hi, wondering what is the correct method to dispose hand sanitizer?
Since it is a highly flammable thing, it cannot be simply throw away/ dispose into toilet/ sink, right?

So, what should I do if I want to dispose large amount of sanitizer? Any idea?
p/s: I tried to call Jabatan Alam Sekitar to check, but the officers seem busy.. Not picking up my phone..

Thank you.

Application to operate from KPDNHEP (Inquiry)

soohwei — Mon, 20 Apr 2020 15:50:47 +0800

Hi, did anybody/ company here applied and got the approval from KPDNHEP for company operation during MCO period?
[attachmentid=10471441]

Because, MITI is more towards manufacturing companies, so, is not relevant to my company.
My company is a trading company where we import some goods which are considered as essential items in this MCO.

Our logistic company requested approval letter from KPDNHEP for movement of essential goods.
[attachmentid=10471443]

So, I tried to reach SPIP department from KPDNHEP on last week.
But failed. The hotline (03-8882 5881 / 03-8882 5905) is either busy or nobody pick up the phone.
The email (spip@kpdnhep.gov.my) , no response even after one week.

So, wondering anybody here has the experience to apply for KPDNHEP's approval letter for operation during MCO?
Thank you.

Custom procedure for parcels pending clearance

soohwei — Thu, 12 Mar 2020 18:00:13 +0800

Hi, recently, company bought some samples of water pump from China HK.
But custom found out that some duty charges need to be paid to clear the parcel.

So, custom just pass the case to ups.
Then, ups (without informing us in advance), already paid the duty to custom and the parcel is now with ups.

Then, we received call from ups regarding the matter.
If we agree to pay (with additional bit of disbursement fee), then they can arrange delivery of the item to us by next day.

My question:
1. How come custom can just pass the case to ups without informing the receiver at all?
If receiver refuse to pay to ups and would like to just give up the parcel, then ups will just loss the duty charges??
(since already paid to custom. and if no one claim the item, item will be sent back after 2 weeks)

2. last time also purchased samples of air fryer from China. Got hold by custom, then we receive documents from custom (? can't remember clearly)
Then, we can decide either to appoint agent (Pos Laju) to settle or we settle by ourselves.

So, actually how the system works?
Different item different procedure?
Or the procedure changed already?

3. Does the number of items in the parcel will have effect as well?
Because, last time also purchased similar water pump sample, but this time is 6 units.

Anyone experience this before?

Coming late to work

soohwei — Thu, 05 Mar 2020 11:02:45 +0800

Wondering, most of the companies can accept lateness to work until which extend?
- 30 mins/ 1 hour/ 2 hours?

If late, what actions will be taken?
- deduct salary/ late for how long then OT for how long/ replace work on another day?

What reasons are acceptable for lateness?
- traffic jam/ LRT rosak/ waking up late?
