Fairygal... I don't buy Toto, especially when there are extra big prizes like this coming $10m one. The odds in any Toto draw are truly so astronomical... Unless a miracle comes to you... :) |

Fairygal, China has a lot of cheats. I was in Shenyang and the streetvendor purposely put a torchlight very near the edge. Once you touch it, definitely 10 out 10, it will drop, then crack. Actually, it's oredi a used broken one. At the end, I hv to pay about S$15, which you can get a similar one here for $3. Even my colleague (from Nanjing) told me to pay up because he said this is not his province and hence, he dare not argue. He said if U go to the police station also no use because the police will side the locals. I cursed and swear never ever to visit that street market again. In Guanzhou, an acquaintance told me what U want to imitate, just bring a sample here and we can make exactly the same for U. My colleague told me they will make the first 20 pieces very good. After that they'll force U to buy in bulk (because they say U should trust their quality already) and then when the lot comes, everything is inferior. By that time, the L/C had already been cleared and they have already cashed yr payment. How to trust all these people? |

Alamak, never ask you to go to the villages where the buffalos are. Go to Suzhou, for e,g. Not too crowded like Shanghai. Ya, agree hygiene level is ......but you open one eye and close one eye lah! Seriously, not that bad as compared to say 5 years ago. |

Fairygal... Your "dream home" and environment happens to be the same as mine, except that it must be in the UK and not the places you mentioned . Sometimes a dream remains a dream forever, but not always... :) |

Fairygal, Maybe they only use 5 workers and 28 hours a week lah. So, maybe China is faster I think because they have so much manpower, all hungry for jobs. |

geojam, Don't you sign anything with the developer or builder when the construction can be completed? If delay or cannot deliver by certain date, can sue? |
