heard from relatives to avoid buying cars or house during ghost month. but if one really have to, what precautions to take? put tailiman or buddha pendent in car etc? or no such thing? any expert care to advise?

Was in Jb yesterday to relax and unwind. But suay suay at night, when parked my car at Jln Austin Height 3 to eat at mobile steamboat shop, my car got broken into. All because i din notice my gf left her handbag in full view on the rear seat. Was parked about 20 lots away and din hear a thing. Only saw the damage on my rear right window smashed when returning to the car and only handbag gone. Damage was a handbag with less than 50sgd, a couple of cards, 2 passport and a broken window. Make police report still need pay myr2. Go to Singapore Consulate Chamber at city sq 35flr still need to pay myr36 per pax with passport size photo just to get a temp pass to return to SIN. As it was first encounter in my life to lose passport overseas, running around and asking around like a headless chicken. Therefore, just to give a quick guide to others who may encounter such problem, 1) Make jb police report. Pay myr2 2) Call Mr Joey from MFA station in JB. Tel: 0797902266 (24/7) 3) Prepare passport size photo and myr36 per pax and proceed to City Sq 35flr office tower to get temp pass to return to SIN. 4) Proceed to jb CIQ custom to get it endorse 5) Proceed to SIN immigration office to handover the temp pass and get acknowledgment letter. 6) Make local (SIN) police report as this involve criminal act. 7) Go down in person to ICA lavander Q up to make new passport. sgd80 for passport + sgd 50 penalty for first offence for lost of passport. Additional Info JB CIQ is starting new procedure soon. After getting the temp pass to enter SIN, need to go to JB immigration office ( Not CIQ ). The place where malaysians do their passport / IC located about 10mins drive away to get exit permit and pay MYR100 per pax (Amt not confirmed yet). After which, then you can go to CIQ and exit back to SIN. Hope this help for those who encounter such situation.
