catseyes2004sg 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2009 Eh actually hor... they are not the cheapest... OUR lighting which we almost went all over singapore and finally found a good place near our home which is so much cheaper than lightings.com.sg . The only problem is the selection of choice is limited but the price is much much cheaper than all the shop @ balestier or even those @ geylang. Here is the address: Haikel Lighting - Raymond 92702814, Blk121 Bt Merah Lane 1, #01-08 *Just tell uncle that the ERA couple with a Baby boy recommended & you can get some discount... ask him for his NEW toy like LED lights see if he has anything to show...* Oh really...tks Goobii for such good deals, hehhe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jesslyntan 1 Report post Posted December 1, 2009 Dear all, its me, Jesslyn's husband, it had been interesting reading all these comments and blogs. I never really had a chance to follow thru and all threads until this week where I start 1 week leave to get my life back. and also got some free time to read thru. most of the while I just glimse thru, never really read up too much cos of other work. In fact, I think over the whole 4 months, I only pen down 1 or 2 comments in my own T-blog. no doubt about it, last 4 months was a challenge, I am sure the other affected house owners felt it too. I guess we all had our fair share of grumbles and unhappiness, my advise to all, LIFE, is full of up and down. This incident will just be a ripple in our sea of life. Our lives are filled with many other things to rememember when we are old, do not let it burden you that you lose the value of other more appreciative things in life. What most people din know, I actually got a cousin contractor which gave similar quote close to Ah Soon. It was my choice to choose Ah Soon, It was my choice to pay the few installments even though things were not moving as expected. Now that things are not on track, I guess, it was my choice. No one made that choice for me. There were many road diversions along the way, I had chosen the paths that leads me to here right now. Not right nor wrong, it had been my choice along the way. Remember, the flutter of a butterfly can cause typhoon somewhere else. Not deserving nor undeserving, neither blessing nor misfortune, good or bad, It is just a life experience. While I was disappointed, I can accept his explaination cos I had been thru rough patch in life too. Although I cannot verify his explaination, I was still satisfied that he had agreed to come out and meet me monday. It was very late notice thus I guess Jason (JASKEL) did not managed to get all affected home owners to come down. By now, I trust there's been a few meetup and there are some resolution to the few of us, the path is brighter now. My issues will not be fully solved as well, but the issues is better managed now. There will be inconvinence over the next few months, but only for a few months, we have many good years ahead of us. So go on living your life. Everyone is entitled to air their view, including me. It is also up to everyone to have their own intepretation of other people views. Do what you think is best for you and move on. Thus far, in my short contact with JASKEL, it had been pleasant. I trust he had made his position quite clear, he can assist but he is not charity. He has his own life too. There is a limit to his resources, he can only do so much within his limits. Nevertheless, I do thank him for willing to step forward to coordinate things for us. He did not insist to take over the unfinished work by his sub cons, even tho that is an option ava to both of us, but rather, with his experiences as a contractor, he had given me alternatives and other options for me to choose. Again, the choice is mine. and, defintiely, he had gave me many options which I did not thought of previously. Jason, Thanks a Million! To all in same situation as me, do what you feel is right, the choice is yours too. My train had just entered a tunnel which is 4 months long, while it was dark, it was still moving on. Now that I see the tunnel opening, I must prepare myself for many more miles before I reach my destination of house completion. I do not know the weather outside the tunnel as well. No one knows, but I do know, after I reach my station, my train will move on to subsequent destinations, so will yours too. so if you got the chance, look out the window and enjoy the scenery. Best wishes to all. Looking forward to meet you when our trains arrives at the next station. BTW, advance Festive Cheers to all, Merry X Mas! Edmund Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaskel Edmund.. so glad to hear that at least you "see openly" instead of brooding on something you cannot help. I've been reading about the situation in your house for some time and find it so upsetting. I do hope that everything gets resolved soon.. one way or another.

jesslyntan 1 Report post Posted December 6, 2009 ah soon 拿了我们20K后,因为还不出钱,更没钱安排工人继续我家一推没完成的工,只好自己从新出钱请工人来完成工程,钱被ah soon拿了,没多余很多钱,有些工业只能硬着头皮自己动手。 上星期付出$1500让电工回来帮我们把等和插头等给装上了,装时我没带相机,当时心情很糟糕,没拍照。 隔天早上,Jaskel来帮我老公跟他一起把ah soon没申请,不被HDB批准的窗口hack掉。下午让ah seng的工人来装修改的窗口,客厅和房间加多下面那片玻璃ah seng竟然要多$500,Jaskel说媒那么贵的,但是时间紧迫,只能让他做先2,帐务问题我们迟点再算!因为我家窗口和铁窗门等ah soon只给了定钱,我们还要补钱T_T Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jesslyntan 1 Report post Posted December 6, 2009 我老公累死了 ah seng做错我家铁门,开了个洞在角头,我咬工人拿回去改,他们说要一个星期后才能回来装T_T,所以只好再等。。。。。。 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jesslyntan 1 Report post Posted December 6, 2009 这个洞也是ah soon留下来的手尾,本来是要木工做一个门板再上砖成为一个藏起来的活门的,但是应为要应付还没完成的工程,我们没资金了做橱工了,没可能有橱工会接做一个门的工,所以...... 昨天我老公就拿了买了工具带去,打算再DIY一个门来盖。 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jesslyntan 1 Report post Posted December 6, 2009 昨天晚上,jaskel和他的夥伴在忙完自己的工程后赶来帮我们把前天干了的石灰上滑白灰,手工当然没专业的师傅好,但是那份热心我们很感动,有家住就好,不要嫌弃,他们来帮我们做事义务的,所以,请大家来我家看时也不要嫌弃,现在一切要看开。 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jesslyntan 1 Report post Posted December 6, 2009 (edited) 看我家惨脏的厨房,右边垃圾桶还是Jaskel帮我门买,另外义务帮我们安装的。 一推还没得装上的的barang-barang。 ah soon买错房间门把,我家两个们都是开左边,结果他买了一左一右的,结果装上后一个对,一个就倒转了,两个一起看很不谐调,但是没办法!有好过没T_T,(虽然颜色款式也不是我选择的-_-) 最离谱的是,他装大门没买门把给我,还是要自己解决。。。。。。 装了门,上了灯,油漆了的屋子,感觉好多了 Edited December 6, 2009 by jesslyntan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
