Transporting electrical appliances to Malaysia

[Maxus-MIFA9]

Terrace house?

 

 

Few years back, one malay fren invited us to his house warming in Johore (KT), the land is one football field length. In the middle is the standalone house, typical malay village house. Common living room, one big common bedroom and one huge kitchen. It comes with one well and lots of different fruit trees. The driveway got no problem accomodating our 6 car convoy. The whole property is fenced up.

 

Best part, he told us, they bought it for less the S$100k.

 

That's the questionable parts ?

 

In MY, their citizen can buy anything at a cheaper rates than any other races but still cheaper than any foreigners...

Four years ago, was looking at Segamat brand new 3 storey, 4 rooms semi-detach house with big compound at MR550,000 and driveway that can part 3 cars. After getting some advised from friends, gave up the ideal.

 

One of the condition that tick me off was that you can sell at a profit only to another foreigners but cannot to their locals....     

 

If a foreigners can afford a RM600K and above semi-de for a brand new one, who wants to buy a re-sale one from you..

You seem to have done some research on fans

 

Ask you, I have this model for the last 5 yrs or so:

https://www.kdk.sg/products/ceiling-fan/remote-controlled/v60wk.html

 

Kind of feel that the the downwind generated not that strong. My ceiling >3.5m easily. Looks like out of production too.

 

You think this new u60fw will make a difference in terms of stronger and larger dispersal of the draft?

 

Both are 60" though...so not sure if worth the while to change.....

 

Might be going in during June hol, so might get one back if decided to change.

 

This kind very subjective leh. I got no answer for you....

 

Best is if you go to courts or some store with this new model and ask them turn on for you to try.

 

Gain city sungei K confirm have...

Even if FOC for ocean freight, the auxiliary miscellaneous charges would have added up quite a large sum...

 

B/L fee @ SGD80

B/L surrender fee @ SGD80

Agency fee SGD55

THC

LCL stuffing charge

blah blah blah

 

Then, you need to consider discharge port LCL charges (quite similar to above)... 

 

And that's before you can even take out from the LCL deconsolidation freight station. 

 

To be honest, it won't be very expensive if it's LCL

 

Of course, if your custom conference table is so big that it has to take up one container, then of course expensive la.

 

 

 

Yup. They will definitely ask for import permit to Malaysia.

 

If no permit, then prepare to go lockup do naked squats

Sorry for misunderstanding, my LCL refers to road cargo.

 

Which may also refer to loose trailer load as lorries from Malaysias always haul by trailer load, not container load.

LCL means Less than Container Load.

FCL means Full Container Load.

Breakbulk means loose cargo non-containerised.

Bulk means bulk, LOL... as in dry or liquid bulk, e.g. iron ore or crude oil.

Yes i know, i dabble with logistics matters during work from time to time.

 

Just that I apply this to road cargo context because Malaysian trailers do consol cargo as well.

 

You hardly see Malaysian trailers leave Singapore empty because the consolidators make sure there is cargo for the trailer to pick up after unloading its Malaysian cargo in Singapore.

I went to courts Tampines yesterday and they have functional display sets for both the 48" and 60" LED KDK fan.

 

You can just go down and ask them to demo for you. Stand under it and see if it is windy enough for you. 

 

Price wise..... They are selling for 3 times the price as JB.

[Vratenza]

Thanks for the suggestion.

 

But I find testing fans from airconditioned shops abit misleading.

 

Tested those bladeless dyson fans at those electronic megastore damn shiok... damn cooling.

 

Did not buy from them, ordered from Parisilk, product reached home, without the airconed air for it to blow at you, the wind chill effect is machiam half.

Testing water cooler in shopping centre lagi misleading!
