Hello everyone

Will be going to JB this Friday after lunch by car. It's my first time going in on the eve of the school holidays. May I know if there is a likelihood of a traffic jam from past experience?

Think will build up but worse in the evening onwards. Some will be like you after school makan then go in direct

Sometimes it is not easy to guess especially at the cusp (in terms of minutes to hours) of public holidays but I'll go with what @ZacharyA shared

I think should be the other way round ; I like herbs and spices, that's why I like Indian, Malay, Indonesian, Thai, and Peranakan food. :grin:

AEON card can earn points for rebates. BI and maybe other malls too (?), can also earn points from Daiso, and Tebrau I was told also Pet something shop. Oh, can also top up the wallet for payment, so only need 1 card. And oh, BI has beverage and maybe snack (?) machines for use with that card too.
AEON card need membership fee? Your is AEON card or Visa?

I thought the fees were reasonable.

I was staying at Hyatt Place. My back was bothering me. Possibly a pinched nerve.

The TCM physician at the Paradigm Mall clinic quickly confirmed my suspicions & prodeeded with a massage. Instant relief.

If I am not mistaken, the cost was only RM80. Just for fun, I submitted the receipt to my insurer (annual family travel plan). Was reimbursed for it! 😅




She couldn't bring the meds herself? 🤭
RM80 is cheap, without medication?
I mean back to SG, I brought her TCM herbs for her phlegm.

I think June and Dec school holiday, most parent will make use of the month long school holiday to oversea holiday. JB trip can go any weekend.
If you really want to go, try 2nd link or near woodland causeway check camera, if heavy jam, just turn back.

Yes, relatively cheap. It'd cost S$50 for a 30-minute massage session at the TCM in Singapore.

My partner was astonished to see the TCM master working on my knots. All the things I told my better half to do - use elbows, press harder here/there etc. - were being performed vigorously right there and then! :LOL:

Oh, you use your Malaysia number to register.

I just saw it online, RM12 per year seem good, Sinkies also can apply without MY number. Interesting, thanks.
Spend 100rm then get enuf points to off rm1.

Free parking might be useful for u if u drive.

Other than that like ntuc member sometime got member deal but ive nvr seen anything really good.
