Cheap Workshop in Malaysia...

[TVT]

I brought all my parts from sg. to jaybee for replacements, remove all packagings and hide undercover places like seats, and the spare tyre slot.

Sir Fong, isn't it cheaper to purchase spare parts in JB than in SG? Or you have lobang to get parts in SG even more cheaper than Jaybeeee?

I got caught once with the below attached picture of 4 pcs brand new yokohama suv tyres bought from Lee Beng Battery & Tyre at AMK Ind.Pk 2, it took me 20 minutes in negotiating with the big fat custom inspector in his air-con office for settlement with 10rmX4=40rm to cleared the harrassment

Bro, were the new tires attached on your wheels or just placed in your boot, when you got caught then?

Careful sourcing and making pricing comparison is my objective for deciding my purchasing strategy

Yes Sir, the Malaysia made brand such as Silverstone in same tyre spec is expensive than my yokohama from sg.for $60/each. I heard feed backs from Malaysian friends that the Silverstone tyre quality is bad and not lasting.

Their warnings were lame......Rubber is Taxable lor ! It is their magic words for something's like our infamous ERP Gantry...pee..pee..pee :angry:

 

do u noe tat msia produce raw rubber only and export these out to other countries for the make of tyres? dan the most funny part is when they import those tyres back into msia (make wif their own rubber), the taxes are very way high expensive...

Many years ago, I heard their ex-pm Dr.M.Mahatir in TV3 speech in his anger :angry: he admitted the bumiputra systems seem damaging the Nation Reserves, he said that the gahment bumiputra system provides resources for promoting Agriculture Farming and Plantation for it's own "people's" to strike for good decent earnings, but these own "people's" had abused the goodwill and welfare syetem by renting out the land and selling equipments & fertilizers to another type of minority "people" to engage developing business opportunity.

I don't mean he is a clean politician, but found him a daring leader whom speaks out directly from his mind challenging the heavyweighted National Policy, sadly it's all over by now that he can't even turn over a pebble for a change for beneficial and fair to all his peoples, this is what politics are all about
