Expatriate Forums in Singapore

I stayed in this hotel costing more than what you guys recommended and it was so empty despite the good interior deco.

Booking via the internet using the credit card ? Well, I have not brought myself around to trust the cyber security system yet. I definitely would not trust certain government agencies or private official agencies.

Heard of cases where passengers bought Air Asia tickets in the office, face to face, and walla! when they got to the airport, the Air Asia staff said that the money has not arrived and no boarding for them. I am figuring out what it means by the money has not arrived when you have the air ticket, the receipt and all. Then, where did the money go to ?

May be it is time we use parts of our bodies as our security passwords for our bank accounts; the eye scan, the hand scan, the thumb scan. And this must be intact within our bodies.

How do you value your poccessions and yet do not show up as figures ?

Kindly recommend sound proof hotels. Thank you so much.

eRm...heard of a contact.

If you need it, you could pm me.
