Hi Software Experts, Asking on behalf of a friend who runs a SME and is looking for such software: "we are looking for an integrated software solution comprises of POS, Retail Management system, Wholesales distribution(Sales Order entry and Inventory management) and Manufacturing (Production tracking, WIP and delivery tracking) components. All these mentioned components must share a common Financial Accounting software platform. The solution is expected to be cost effective coupled with prompt and reliable support from the vendor. We need to first find out the pricing structure and the vendor's interest in conducting a product demonstration at our premises without obligation." If you have lobang, let me have the contact info and I will pass it to my friend. Thank you very much Regards,

2) As above ... anyone willing to share more. Some can ridiculously asking for 5K to do a programming job. And 8-10K to do a DBA role in banking industries.... they think BANKERs are Robert head. I asked my HR how to counter check and she mention very difficult to verify their degree and she ever email to their respective college but never reply... perhaps need to pay a little sum to verify their cert. I even know some FT asking me to bluff to know certain skill in order to get into the job then learn from there. If this case, seem like many people doing this..... What can i do to protect against them. This is too much for us to take it. Whereby most of the time they will work for couple of years and the savings are enough to build a two storey Bungalow with a little nice garden. And as for me after couple of years, i still couldn't a five foot way in singapore. I am believed there are still thousands of uncaught fake FT degree out in singapore and MOM just unlucky to get hold of them. It just like smuggle cig from JB. Every day thousand s are doing it and many just go past uncaught. 2) Also in chennai, they are claiming they can get almost similar salary range... is it true.

Hi all, A friend of mine range me up just now and asked me to check in the forum for quick advice. His son (less than 21 years, less than 1 year driving license) rented a car without his notice and got into an accident. The car run into the car park railing and damaged the bumper. Now the Car rental company wanted the son to pay $1k for damages. According to the Son story, the steering wheel suddenly locked up when he was parking and then he knocked the railing. My friend is of the thought that how could a rental company rent a car to a minor (less than 21 with less than 1 year license) in the 1st place? Is this legal? This is the question that I can't answer him. I thought youngsters can learn driving so car rental company should be able to rent to them right? I actually advised him to go outside workshop to fix the problem and return back to the car rental company. This could be cheaper. I know there are many experts here, kindly advise me on this. Thank you very much. Regards,

dun believe anything you read in HWZ? i want to sell my 12 years old account in mcf, who want to buy?

Hi! any bro here is sales line covering Malaysia? got a job offer that expected to travel into M'sia (Muar, Melaka, KL) almost every week, 2 to 3 days in each one trip. they give $800 (need to give CPF). Only M'sia toll, parking and Malaysia petrol top up can claim. Like to know what is the standard market rate for the transport allowance? need to consider the increased risk factor when going into M'sia. my main concern is : 1) faster wear & tear 2) vehicle breakdown or towing (who pays?) 3) accident in Malaysia (excess, insurance loading foot ourselves?) 4) theft & car stolen ( surely insurance won't cover everything) 5) coffee $$$ Thanks!

http://www.humanleather.co.uk/index.html You have to check this website out. I can't even copy-paste from the website easily as right-clicking is disabled. I still can't figure out if it's legit or just an elaborate deadpan hoax. And yet I feel oddly tempted to get a human leather wallet - if only the prices weren't so high (upwards of $14,000 USD).

Sorry bros. This piece of news I catch no ball. So the director who took $64million loan facility from Goldman to buy stocks kanna forced-sales coz Goldman deemed him defaulted on his debt which subsequently caused the unusual trading activities of that 3 penny stocks which were subsequently suspended? http://www.singaporelawwatch.org/slw/index.php/headlines/33646-third-penny-stock-case-against-goldman Source Straits Times Date 27 Nov 2013 Author Rachel Scully Third penny stock case against Goldman Blumont director says bank breached duty by force-selling his shares ANOTHER shareholder caught in the trading debacle over the Blumont Group, LionGold Corp and Asiasons Capital penny stocks is suing global bank Goldman Sachs. Mr James Hong claims the bank, which had given him a credit facility of more than $64 million, breached its duty of care when it force-sold his shares in the three firms last month. He is the third person to take legal action against the bank. Ipco International chief executive Quah Su-Ling and LionGold independent director Ng Su Ling, who is also Ipco's company secretary, have both commenced legal proceedings. Recent media reports said Ms Quah had loans in excess of $61 million with Goldman Sachs. Singapore-based Mr Hong, an executive director at Blumont, first bought shares of Asiasons and LionGold in 2007. Last year, he received some Blumont shares in his capacity as the firm's executive director, according to documents filed with Britain's High Court on Monday. Mr Hong had also come to know Mr William Chan, chief executive and chairman of Stamford Management, last year. Mr Chan offered to act as an investment consultant and assist Mr Hong in procuring loan facilities from banks for his investments. He later told Mr Hong that Goldman Sachs would be willing to extend a loan facility to him against his shares in Asiasons and LionGold. Mr Chan also introduced Ms Quah to the bank. Mr Hong opened an account with Goldman Sachs in February this year, pledging his Asiasons shares in exchange for proceeds he could use to buy LionGold stock. The size of his account with Goldman Sachs was estimated at about $12.4 million then. In September, the bank agreed to fund the cost of the 1.75 million Blumont shares Mr Hong would take up as part of its rights issue. However, things took a turn on Oct 2, a day after the Singapore Exchange (SGX) asked Blumont to explain how its market value had jumped more than 12 times to $6.3 billion within nine months. Mr Hong's court papers show that a Goldman Sachs representative e-mailed him a demand notice at 11.48am on Oct 2, stating that he had to repay the $64 million loan in cash by 1.30pm that same day, less than two hours later. Mr Hong then received an e-mail at 1.36pm stating that as he had defaulted on his payments, Goldman Sachs would "exercise its rights to appropriate all or any of his assets it held" to pay off his loan. The next day, Mr Hong told Goldman Sachs that he had obtained an alternative loan facility of $40 million from BHP International Markets in exchange for 27.4 million Asiasons shares. Despite this proposal to pay off his loan, Goldman continued to sell his stakes in the three counters. These transactions carried on through Oct 23, even after the SGX had lifted its designation status on the three stocks. Mr Hong contends that Goldman Sachs had "arbitrarily, capriciously, perversely and irrationally" sold the shares even when their values had fallen by 70 to 90 per cent. The bank continued to sell the shares even after the SGX announced that it was "apparently engaged in an investigation into the trading and price fluctuations" of the three stocks, alleges Mr Hong. He is suing for damages, interest and costs. [email protected] Source: Straits Times © Singapore Press Holdings Ltd. Permission required for reproduction.

Quoting from a HWZ thread and 9 pages. Still no csi....... Find him out. Email to his company la I deliberately haven't mentioned the topic (because there's already another debate on the wrongs and rights of the matter) Why I started the thread was because of a) Dragging a company into a "off company time" matter b) trying to screw with someone's ricebowl. I find this trend super disturbing - where people try to drag a company into what should be a private matter. It doesn't seem right. Why should my company be pulled into something I do in my private time? I am not using their name, quoting them or anything else - it has nothing to do with them. How far is it from this sort of thing, to being fired for the political party you support - or to the social cause you like? Or even to getting in trouble for the girl you date or the car you drive? It has nothing to do with the company - so they should be left out of the matter Your thoughts?

A comprehensive navigation system has become a standard for most, if not all, of today's cars. However, the same can't be said of motorcycles, at least not yet. With that being said, a motorcyclist will have to go through all the difficulties in reading a paper map if he wants to get the right direction to where he's heading. But now, things are about to change, thanks to a Russian company. This company is planning to come up with a solution known as the LiveMap. Featuring an earphone, a microphone, a light sensor, and - the best part - a micro display, this navigation system will project directions in the form of a heads-up display, just like what we can find featured in today's fighter jets. How cool does that sound? Unlike Google Glass - which projects images on the upper right hand side, the LiveMap will project directions right on the centre of the visor of the helmet the motorcyclist is wearing. And, thanks to the light sensor, the directions on the visor will remain transparent regardless of whether it is in the day or night. I would say that this is absolutely important as it ensures safety. A digital compass and an integrated gyroscope are also in place to make sure that the motorcyclist gets the correct orientation of the projection displayed on his visor, even if he's leaning the bike or tilting his head. Wow, this is yet another cool feature to anticipate, isn't it? But then, there's another problem, what about the power supply the helmet is going to need? Well, counting on a couple of lithium-ion batteries, the Russian company behind the solution claims that the helmet is likely to last a day. However, a USB charge plug will also come in handy should the motorcyclist require extra juice. How does this augmented-reality helmet sound? Well, if you're interested, you may want to help make it become a reality as the company is currently trying to raise US$150,000 (S$191,235) via Indiegogo. That amount is required to build a prototype that should work as expected. Then, if everything goes well, one of this LiveMap helmets may demand around US$2,000 (S$2,550) from any motorcyclist interested in it. Of course, there're always chances that prices may go down, even if we may have to wait for another decade.

My ride reached 145,000 km this week after 4 years. I have been very happy and satisfied with my ride. In the last two months, I had to change engine oil twice as my engine was found to be empty without oil!? Going to a local service center they did not find this problem and also one of my fans were breaking down. I spent some couple of hundreds changing some parts that did not solve the problem but just a band-aid over the problems. Driving awhile more, I found the problem arising again, wanting a second opinion I sort out our resident guru Koolaba bro and he recommended me Aldan Motor Service Pte Ltd - they service alot of Skoda cabbies, so the experience is there and have all the VAG kits and tools. Went there for a quote for the items I wanted, and fair enough price, accepted it and sent it to get it serviced. 3 hrs later got a call from the owner to say he found my engine oil completed gone and was shocked as it dose not evaporate, told me he further investigated it and found the gasket of the engine broken. He recommended me to change it as it will spoil the vehicle if I do not. With that I said yes, went to the work shop to take a look and found my main engine covers off to reveal the pistons and other parts and showed me the broken gaskets and seams. Wow why didn't the previous person find this out. Got my ride back today and it is purring again, with the changed engine mounts, my ride is also quieter and feels like no more vibrations, got new engine oil, transmission oil changed, new radiator fan, expansion tank, drive shaft cover, oil filter, coolants, valve cover gasket..etc. Worth every penny, ride feels great, (like new feeling) Just wanted to share my experience.

Anyone here faced with the dilemma that your specific job function is made redundant and you are given 2 options..ship out or take up another totally different job scope in the same company? Do you venture out to look for similar jobs which you are trained for in order to stick to your career progression or do you stay in the company to do a totally different role? Not that it happens to me but could be.. Company or career? Which will you choose? I think most bros will say career but what if the company happens to be the best you worked for so far and didnt abuse you like other previous companies did?

Need some help from the helpful bros here I'm going to US in April for a month and I am sourcing for car rental over the net.. Can't really decide on which company to rent from as their rents and add on defers quite a bit .. Hertz - most exp. good review. Avis - price quite ex also as compared to others.. Rentalcars.com - cheapest among all. A bit scary to have it so cheap. Others quote 1.4k for full insurance for a ford escape for 2 weeks. This company quote me sgd 600!!! Alamo - good pricing but not as good as rentalcars. Not sure how reliable they are. On top of that, I got to know that I can actually get promo code via UCLA and I registered as a gold member. The rate I got as a gold member of hertz and using their promo is actually more exp than I get from a guest login booking. For bros who been there and rented cars before, pls give me your advice. Thanks!!

My friend was involved in a car accident recently, it was on an expressway when a heavy vehicle swerve all the way to the right lane and stopped for road maintainance. He E braked and stopped in time but the taxi behind could not and crash into him, the impact flung him forward and he hit the truck slightly. Now the insurance company representing the cab refuse to take full liability and only willing to pay 50%, now my fren is stuck becos his car is in the workshop and the courtesy car given to him is not covered under his own insurance. He was advised to pay the excess and claim 1st party and pay for the rental of the courtesy car himself as if he wants to fight the car and claim 3rd party it will be a prolong process and he may have to come out with alot of money. He NCB will also be affected if he claim 1st party. He ask me for advice and I told him I am no expert and will seek the kind advice of the bros here. Thanks.
