Not a lot (at least not the ones I'm with) but every now and then. Too much logistics, so when called up, I just join and pay, then quietly follow. Let others do the work, so must be willing to p.a.p. :s13:
use to join those day trips now stopped. They will stopped also at certain snacks warehouses. :flash: :flash:

Mine is a privately-organized one. But yes, they've to do their homework and at times visit places I wouldn't have gone on my own.

it's a staged process, we still don't understand time...

this electrification project was from 2011, that was how long the 3++ km new train lines took to complete, keep in mind, it's not done yet, to be completed by 2026.

HSR will need another new set of tracks and station/station expansion
i read the wiki on the hsr... seems its still on going just that now malaysia wants to build their own from jb to kl..
i really dont think this will be done in my lifetime...
my life time i think i can only see the rts...

Eh... I don't remember the dishes I ate, only that there wasn't anything I didn't like. :s13:

IIRC this was the restaurant (maybe preC19?) that some members here shared about their discounted (half-price?) dimsum in the afternoon...?

Anyway, such a big building so close to the mall, how to miss? I even remember there's a McD and Granada the tall hotel in the area. :grin:

Popular with locals as well, from what I've seen. Also weddings at least half the time we're there. Huge place inside, looked like quite a number of private halls... It's a double-storey (at least) restaurant and the wedding guests have their own entrance to go up to those halls.
Talk about wedding, Pekin Sutera also popular for wedding venue...

Don't talk about your lifetime, coz if so, I think many here won't need to think about it. Young man, stay happy, stay healthy, look forward! Look north and cross the causeway whenever you can. :grin:

when i was younger i like 1 day or day trip jb...
now knn.. no way unless i got dental appt
Why not? :s11: Cannot go for a day trip unless you've a dental appointment? Better half not issuing exit pass? :s34:

These are "good lives" folks. I think if they paid in SGD, they would remember better.

Many here don't even check manjalink card deduction, I know @Habrosus one of them. :s13:

But if fishball noodles increase by SGD 0.20 , we will all kpkb and vote PAP out next. :grin: Spend in SGD, memory machiam like prodigy kid.

Too busy trying to remember the prices of shopping items, where got time to check bus fare leh? You also keep receipts and finally had to get rid, you understand how tedious that can be, right? :s13:

should follow indon jakarta-bandung HSR, pretend to cancel and back out the project, then quietly asked china to give 40 years loan, upsetting japan :LOL:
142km jakarta-bandung was done within 7 years, and that was at very highly populated area and crossing mountains and covid19 delay.
msia one 350km should be much faster to build, less densely populated area and flat coastal plain...

Can get the Zus 5 in a box at supermarkets, Lotus's is cheaper - i think there are 4/5 varieties.
https://www.lotuss.com.my/en/search/zus?sort=relevance:DESC

I also like ChekHup's versions of Latte & Cappuccino - slightly more costly.
https://www.lotuss.com.my/en/search/check hup?sort=relevance:DESC
Thank you, will check them out. (y)

My daily kopi is the Muar 434 Kopi-O Kosong. Normally get the 100 in a plastic container one from Batu Pahat, or once from Paradigm, or Sheng Siong @$13.90. Recently SS brought in the 20-bag packs @$4+ IIRC.

Also got Chek Hup's, but the Classic version with optional (packed separately) rock sugar packs.

Will check Zus' supermarket offerings next visit. Have so far only tried their canned kopi from Family Mart. Other than their outlets' sit-and-drink-there. :grin:
