Good question but posted at the wrong section. You should go to Welcome to HDB InfoWEB or lagi best, go HDB ask the officers directly.

Other budget airlines does not hav this restriction. But if u buy the ticket using cc via their Lionair ticketing office, then it is ok. The restriction only applies to ONLINE SALE.

Hopes this helps. And by the way for those who ar reading this, Lionairs offers 1 of the cheapest ticket to HCM for now. 1 way cost abt 70-80sing only. They ar using brand new plane and offer free food onboard.

Thanks for sharing. For this, i think i have to credit my sister-in-law. Don't know how she board the plane without my credit card. hahaha. I am frequent flyer with Vietnam Airlines and Garuda Business Class, so not so sure of other airlines. To avoid trouble, i better buy Tigerair for my sis-in-law next time round.

Hihi. Rom 1st, rent a room while waiting for PR, then get flat. sorry to be rude here but the most important of all questions is where u noe ur gal. if from KTV etc...be very CAREFUL. 95% of them ar out to get ur $$. The remaining 5% ar either newbie, tired of KTV life or found a person that can afford her whole family( not urs ) expenses.
With ur income, it will be VERY HARD to survive, cos u will hav mthly housing loan, ultility bills, expenses for her family etc. If possible try to bump ur income to 3k level then still possible. u can either work OT or buy a slightly bigger hse (4rm ) and rent the rms out to normal folks for abt 1k extra provided ur CPF is large enough to minimise ur mthly hse loan. if ur gal is ex-KTV, recommend ur rms to her KTV frds at abt 15-18$sing per nite. u will be able to get abt 1.8 to 2k rental income by having 4 tenants.

hope this helps.

I "dated" my gal long enough to noe how some of their system works. the rms that they stay usually ar HDB flats owned by ex-KTV gals with their singapore hubbie. $15-18 is abt the market rate with vietnam home cook meals provided. I intend to go this way until my relationship with my gal turn sour not long ago............

Bad idea...staying with ktv frens will be dangerous...alot of things can happen and will happen...best is to totally get away from her ktv frens which is a bad influence....

hahaha...this is one thing which can happen...and likely she is back to work at KTV liao or found life is greener else where...

$15-18? lots of $10 rate around Geylang area near their work place, save them taxi two ways especially the mid night charge after work. they don't walk or take bus, damm lazy. they don't really need home cook meals as many kind brothers here are willing to bring them out for food daily

They dun really need the meals at home.
They wake up late afternoon and at most cook some maggie noodles, eat, go to nap again til 7pm. Then their regulars who dun see them inside the pub will show up at JC coffee shop eagerly and happily order food, buy cigarette, top up prepaid card and sometimes pick up shampoo/bath form for them. Then follow by some pocket money before she goes to work.

My wife last time at JC got 3 such morons who do that. That explain why she can afford to skip work almost everyday and stick with me even when i dun give her money. She even showed me the 3 morons when at JC

one of them could be brother here luckily I don't cheong JC area.

i ever spot checked one room upon the invitation of one girl ....

4 double decker beds, meaning 8 persons in one small room with those 1-horse power air-cond.

$10 X 1 girl X 30 days = $300 X 8 girls = $2400 per month per room.

that house got a few rooms .... good income man ....

have you seen one at Joo Chiat, the ceiling is very tall at second floor. So they build another level of platform to it. Those at the highest level cannot stand up straight without hitting their head. And there is only a run down deskfan to cool 4-5 gals inside, all cramped with their luggage bag and thin mattress.
Some of you who are hook up with JC gals long enough would have heard cases of theft of money and handphone among the room mates.

hehe.. I was also a carrot head for my wife when her handphone was stolen that day and that evening met up with her at Lavander MRT and passed her a brand new SE phone. She had anticipated me to ask for free sex in returned but I had a very important task to do so went off in a jiffy.
Gals who had been in the trade long enough and comtemplating retirement cos of competition from young gals will throw out 2 fish line; one to hook money, one to hook people.

Vietnamese where also can sleep la. No need mattress, no need pillow, as long as have clean floor can sleep roi. Even if kitchen or toilet floor is clean, they can also sleep.

Wow, that is very true! My gal is currently throwing both lines at the same time. The one that hook people is bitten by me, the other one to hook money is bitten by this guy who always gives her alot of money. Just have to wait till the end of this year then we'll hopefully get married, if we can last till then. Hopefully she don't get pregnant by then too! hahaha...
