Vitual Stock Exchange

hi guys,

if you wanna try your luck in share markets but worry that you will get burn, you may wanna do it "Virtually".

You will be able to virtually trading stocks at NYSE and bare in mind that NYSE start trading only after 2200hrs local time.

It provide an example on how stocks market function and how retail trader like you and me can trade stocks.

Good luck

Purchasing power - Malaysia vs Singapore

Incase you do not know, the price of a vehicle is Malaysia is almost the same as its cost in Singapore. For example if you buy a Toyota Altis in,

Malaysia, a check at http://www.toyota.com.my/ show a price of RM 102,514.80.


Singapore, a check at http://www.toyotasingapore.com.sg/ show a price of SGD 58,988.


If you drive across causeway and up north, the cost of the car in RM will be 58,988 x 2.3 and, it work out to be RM135,672. Its about 30k more than it cost in Malaysia.


Well imagine that there is two of you, one working in Malaysia and the other in Singapore and doing the same job. One earning RM 3500 and the other SGD 3500...


Ermm... its pretty obvious that who has more purchasing power isn't it? My question is why can't the car in Malaysia cost cheaper so that its affordable to the 'rakyat'?

Lantern's Festival


Its look like a yearly affair for me to the visit Yunnan Garden during Mid Autumn festival.

It was really fun this time around as the decoration has improved and there was fireworks as well.

I hope next year will be better.
