Guys, beware of fake Astro technicians...they are on the loose again canvasing in disguise as Astro guys, with uniform andfake id cards and all. This was highlighted by Astro themselves when I made a report on my faulty Astro service some days ago. They told me not to open the door unless these details are verified: Name, IC on ID to match and correspond with their IC of which I am supposed to demand to verify. Job report number and description given to me earlier over the phone to match with theirs etc...only then do i let them in..

And the funny thing is how do they know your decorder is having problem.. Must be an inside job.:listen:
 
Everyone wants to do good....eg charity. But it is abused. Anyone who comes to me for donation will get a quiet "friendly" stare from me until they go away voluntarily. I do charity but after a while doing charity is like giving money to the wrong ppl.

SO...tip is....

1.Do not give charity to individuals by the roadside or in coffee shops. The money will surely masuk thier pocket.
2.if want to give charity, go to the establishment and make donation (do we actually have the time to do that?)

I stopped doing charities tak kira old lady ke or old man or old folks home or any shelter. Doing good but kena con is not satisfying at all. Better do charity with Income Tax Dept.

I do the same thing as well. I rather go direct to the organisation that needs the donation, drop off a cheque and get a tax-deductible receipt at the same time. So I know for sure the money goes to the needy, and I get a tax deduction at the same time.
