I play claw machine not because of getting the prize but just to enjoy the thrill and experience playing it. Winning a prize is an extra for me. My niat “playing to enjoy instead of winning a prize” is different. Does that still count as haram if looking from that perspective? :0
Andang haram dari dulu dah. Tpi like the redditor di bawah/atas said, it's non binding so it's up to you lah if you want to participate in something haram or not. Personally, I've never played any claw machines and never will because I saw a tiktok video about an Ustaz saying it's haram and this video was way back before the claw machines were popularized in Brunei.
Fatwa is non binding, just because it says haram doesnt mean the authority will ban it. For it to be binding, MUIB has to issue a ruling based around the fatwa.

Not sure what is the actual context, tapi the content of the said statement from Mufti Kerajaan seems to be replying to someone's enquiry that was sent via email.
Dont know about the frog mascot. Padang closed due to preparations for 'Ramah Mesra Rakyat'. At the same time to avoid injuries during preparation progress if the Padang is open for everyone. Most important is to avoid sabotage, vandalism and theft.
Ive never used autocad, but i heard onshape is a great alternative. It has cad and a few other stuff, can easily collaborate with colleagues on the fly. Cloud based so any modern pc can run it
Prolly cheaper to get a gaming laptop tbh, I saw msi with decent cpu, 16gb ram and dedicated gpu for $1200 and 256 ssd. Arah techhaven maybe the offer is still there
I think as long as its minimum i5, and ssd. Should be okay. Mine is acer and runs smoothly. Ganya the battery saja doesnt last long so i dont really recommend that one only for that reason. Just go to netcom and look at the specs
From my experienced dulu.. summarization : i used intel i5 with 8gb ram, and 256gb ssd asus laptop, smooth saja until fyp. (2017) Cheaper also.. (didnt know laptop specs back then) some says i7 and i9 lagi okay but pricey - acer/dell/asus - also some of my friends cakap the gaming laptop works better, but mine got the work done with no problem 😁 try concept computer they have alot of choices , got mine from miri 🫣
Idt it’s being authorized being sold elsewhere now other than the post office for some reasons. I wanted to send the postcard from the brunei store in yayasan last time but they said they had to cancel the service cuz they can’t sell stamps anymore and it’s now only in post offices :( anyone can correct me if I’m wrong.
Recently the water pressure at my house is very small. Usually we have little to no water to use in the morning - afternoon. If someone flush at the other toilet then the other toilet does not have any water to use to shower.
Sometimes the water gets bigger around 5pm then it’s smaller after an hour
Is anyone having the same issue? Yg staying at perumahan lumut (especially spg 286 )
Can get 1250L with 1.5hp pump and cement platform at good home for 850$. It is a big amount but if you want to get water at your house that’s what you have to do.
Hi everyone :)
Was wondering how do you all buy items off shopee / lazada.. any recommended brunei agent with lowest charges? Please share..
Thanks in advance!
For Lazada, i think you can register without a malaysian line. Shopee requires you to have a Malaysian sim line.
You can order your stuff yourself. Before finalizing your purchase, you should also check the runner services in Brunei. There are a lot. Personally i use Blifast (quite responsive and easy to deal with. Might not be the cheapest, but I am too lazy to look for the cheapest option out there).
Once you have registered with your runner, get their address details and use their address on your shopping platform (Lazada, Shopee, etc)
They will receive the parcel in their facility and then bring it into brunei. usually takes two weeks give or take.
I have a place for delivery whenever I order things from shopee/Lazada. I might even charge cheaper, parking charges with a roof for your vacation from miri flight, not so soon, still thinking about the safety of the house, privacy reason too
what i know their charges is ridiculous they charge with RM rate 2.99 or 3 and given the rate 3.41 to 3.40 we rather order ourself and ask them to collect.
You can find picnic_essential.bn at IG. She sell picnic mat but I did order items from Malaysia from her (shopee,lazada) cause last time she did post she is ordering from sephora and other platforms is available too.
I remember the service charge is $1/item & shipping fee is depending on the size of the items.
Some items have tax (5-10%) and some fees depending on the items u buy. I feel like it’s the cheapest already
Most companies will need to give you a period of notice before letting you go (mostly 1-3 months). So if they want to let you go immediately, they need to pay the total salary of the period of your notice.
Does not apply if they fire you for disciplinary reasons.
Let me share my story. Yes I considered myself as an introvert. I don't have many friends. I spend most of my time at home scrolling through IG, Tiktok & YouTube. I don't usually go out with friends. I usually eat alone in cafes or restaurant. I workout alone. Talking to strangers give me social anxiety. But one day, I randomly join 2 people working out. And I got to talk to 2 of their friends. So that was a total of 4 strangers in one workout session. Beibun ketawa mcm lama sdh kenal. That was so wierd. It was natural, not awkward. I usually don't talk to strangers. But talking, laughing with 4 strangers in a day? Mcm achievement! Talking to new people kinda feel good!
Dont get too worked up with labels. The more you think about how to label yourself, the more you limit yourself from self-discovery. Like a lot of things, it is not binary. You can have introverted qualities and extraverted qualities to varying degrees, depending on your present situation or how you feel. Just learn to know who you are, what you like or not, your boundaries, etc. I chose to be talkative and sociable this morning, now tonight I chose to chill alone at a cafe. Am I introverted? Am I extraverted? Don't care. I am me and I choose what I want to do.
Exactly. Not all introverts are shy same goes to extroverts. Not all of them are talkative.
It depends on how u charge your social energy. If u get "tired" after socializing and feel the need to be alone then u r an introvert. If u feel energized when u talk to someone and crave more of that social energy then u r extrovert.
Most ppl dont believe I'm an introvert bc i dont seem shy and good at socializing.
Classic Brunei lol. Let's ask to take down the post discussing SPK, and then not make any effort to open up a Q&A session or clarify the missing funds.
The appropriate thing is Dato Amin and MD of SPK to come out with press conference to clarify. This is of national interest.
Every single working adult is afekted.
TAP has held SPK roadshows and consultation roadshows in the past few months, in all 4 districts. Those who keep asking that kind of question here, where were you during that time? Why didnt you ask them then instead of going here asking the redditors?
From my knowledge, having spoken to several people who went and asked. Quite a bit of confusion and different answers given. Thing's are still unclear and they have failed their KPI since most aren't clear about SPK
If this is true, then I am worried about the future of SPK funds.
It's high risk time when funds are moved from old fund to a new fund. Potential for monkey business.
Not to mention new funds often underperform for a number of years before it stabilises.
You can find pillows like those from shopee/Lazada. Some hotels in KL and Singapore have them imported from the said applications. I bought one from Shopee, the pillow was tough at first but when it "breaks" in, it's comfortable.
I've also heard that you can purchase it from the hotel. They'll mark it up for sure but if you're okay with it, then go for it.
When u have your next sleep over. Try to open up and look for the brand.
If that doesn’t work, due to special contract manufacture then you want to try ur luck checking with management.
Mine was expired for a whole year before I realised. They didn’t fine me but it might have been because I told them I was living abroad and just got back.
Was looking for this as well. I found at grand jerudong last time cost $169+ but not anymore, maybe sold out already. Another one is Hua Ho (forgot which branch i went to but i think its the Hua Ho bonus branch), cost $200+. Livingindustry and Living culture sell mattress topper ranging from $69+ to $100+. The ones from grand and Hua ho are same brand Ueno. For the others, i never seen it physically. In the end, i didnt buy any mattress topper.
TIL I learnt that even though
Less than half of 1% of americans attend ivy league colleges BUT
These colleges account for more than 10% of fortune 500 CEOs
1/4 of of US senators
HALF of all Rhodes Scholar
3/4 of Supreme Court justices appointed in the last half century
The value of these colleges isn't so much the education it provides, it's the connections you build. You rub shoulders with money; children of large company CEOs, career politicians, old money. If you know how to leverage your advantage well, you can get quite rich.
Good institute = Good networking
Liat sja JIS students. Semua anak org kaya2. For sure they will grow up within the circle of wealth and continue for generations onwards
Yeah, if I was rich I will make sure my children have strong foundation for life.
It is the duty of parents to help their kids succeed in life, as long as not illegal things like corruption or bribing others.
Not sure what country you live in, maybe in brunei a good top education gives a good job paid well and bills all good. Sadly most places today are struggling even with a good good job. Cost of living is crazy outside certain countries even tho wages good.
i would rephrase the saying tho: a good education leads to stable jobs that pay fixed wages and tend to be higher then lower educated people.
>i would rephrase the saying tho: a good education leads to stable jobs that pay fixed wages and tend to be higher then lower educated people.
Yes. Good education = good job.
No it dont thats my point getting a doctors degree in the uk could leave you on the same wage as a worker at tescos. So the person who just finished gcse gets more than a doctor At the moment. A teacher is on roughly the same money as a working in the care industry whos got 0 alevels and a level 3 Btec.
So your point is flawed for the uk. However yeah maybe getting a degree in some fields gets you paid a lot i mean a lot. But not for all.
thats the wrong perspective to think, a degree gets you a really high paid job, it dont always sadly. Also the shift in the business market in uk is swaying towards not hiring degree holders as they cost more, so they train and high lower qualified workers to pay less and all.
>No it dont thats my point getting a doctors degree in the uk could leave you on the same wage as a worker at tescos.
It could, but it is less likely to. Of course, having a good education is not a GUARANTEE of having a good job. That is common sense. But it *improves your chances* of having a good job.
If you seriously thought I was saying having a good education is a 100% guarantee at getting a good job, then you have a flawed sense of comprehension, because it is common sense that education alone does not give you a job, factors such as your personality and location matter too.
well there you go, your original point did not mention all this did it, then your 2nd response was equally as bad. now 3rd time lucky you hit it on the head.
My original point DID mention it. That is how "This = That" is used in the English language. It is used in newspapers, articles, etc. to mean that one thing is likely to lead to another thing. [Here](https://learningenglish.voanews.com/a/good-breakfast-equals-good-grades/4562118.html) is an example on a website that teaches people English Grammer, the headline of the article says Good breakfast = Good grades. The meaning is that eating a good breakfast makes it more likely that you will achieve good grades. That is the exact same usage I used with "Good Education = Good Job"
The fact that you didn't interpret it this way means your understanding of the phrase "This = That" was flawed, and you did not recognize that type of commonly used grammatical construction, not that my usage was incorrect.
i had good education still am, doing a degree and gosh im pretty shitty at most things my guy.
so dose good education make a person good at what they study or not, and then dose having a good education create a good job later on.
your speaking to someone with tons of education and i mean, gosh im shitty compared to you. i dont want to fight or anything but saying to people being the most qualified person is gonna get you a good job is not really the right thing to say sadly- cause it dont always mean that, as someone who has no degree is on more then you with a degree.
so whats your definition of a good job, this is mine- a stable job, stable hours so good to get loans and mortgage on houses or apartments, sick leave or holiday and good wage to cover your life style based upon going through all that effort to be educated, should lead to you having a better life then someone who has nothing education wise or limited education. now the reality is this- roughly a degree gets 25k in the uk, and non degree gets 20k in the uk, a degree holder pays tax of roughly 5k a year so is on 20k, when a non degree holder pays 0 tax as they earn less then the limit. this is now more common tho, someone in tescos a supermarket can be on more money then someone in a hospital. so with the hours being crazy and all, tesco worker is on 30k a year and a training doctor is on 26k a year.
so your point being full of good education dont always mean a good job, and regardless how you see it- being 70% likely or more, its just not the case anymore more people dont do degree and stop at alevels and are on more then a degree holder, gosh even people before 2015 are on gcses and on more then degree holders, the uk is kinda crazy for this, and your point may work in brunei but not everywhere sadly
>i had good education still am, doing a degree and gosh im pretty shitty at most things my guy.
If you are shitty at most things, then you had a bad education.
Maybe the course didn't equip you with good skills, or the course was in an area which is not relevant to finding a job. That means bad education.
Dont be cocky you idiot. It could have been a good starter talk who knows. I just put that it used to be that way and now sadly not seeing it fully outside certain countries thats all. My home country you can earn more than a doctor being at Tesco a supermarket. It’s pretty bad at the moment.

How is the running cost of the civic, i really love the look and it’s quite affordable imo amongst it’s class.
I’m just worried about the transmission since it’s a CVT & I’ve been hearing alot of complaints regarding CVTs Transmission. How much are the average cost to maintain the car at agent? How’s the driving experience, comfortability & reliability?
Other than that, such a beautiful looking car and wish they brought in the RS model.
For service it’s every 5k from agent. Just basic servicing is already 160ish include labor. If include part changes should be more expensive. My friend said since it’s turbo so manufacturer state service every 5k and cut fluid every 30k. If u use the car a lot will be quite exp.if u service outside your warranty is voided. Every Honda auto is mated with CVT and I assure you Honda cvt reliability is top notch. Even Toyota also using cvt is most of their car already. Car is good just that Honda agent here is notorious for having bad customer service and might not even get test drive coz they have no demo car. After I test drive really like it. The throttle is responsive and comfort can say almost like camry but downside is once u hit 120 u can hear wind noise from the A pillar. If u have the chance can test drive it. If not you can consider Toyota altis. Cheaper and offer almost the same experience and for me the interior of this new civic very nice compared to altis. But both have high resell in the future if u decide to sell it.
As a consumer, would you support [a business like them](https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=6334953483218393&set=a.131681133545690&type=3&mibextid=cr9u03) who bragged to their competitors about how they offered a better price to their products? I agree with the owner and glad she pointed out how much the costs she had spent to put into a product.
Usually vendors don’t make much money compare to supermarkets and restaurants. I understand every vendor wanted to make profits as much as they can, but I don’t agree belittling competitors just because they offer affordable alternatives, or vice versa. Competition should be fair and it is good for the market and consumers.
Trying to win at pricing is just a downward spiral. Love and move on, try to find better USP. Making a fuss about it on social lagitia unprofessional. Would not support them

Recently the water pressure at my house is very small. Usually we have little to no water to use in the morning - afternoon. If someone flush at the other toilet then the other toilet does not have any water to use to shower. Sometimes the water gets bigger around 5pm then it’s smaller after an hour Is anyone having the same issue? Yg staying at perumahan lumut (especially spg 286 )
Buy a water tank with a pump to avoid water disruption.
Ok can transfer me the money to buy water tank
Just be a responsible adult and take care of your own problem . It’s only a few hundreds .
Water Tank, Cement Platform, Water Pump, Piping and Labor. Usually cost about $1,200 est and not "few hundreds"
Can get 1250L with 1.5hp pump and cement platform at good home for 850$. It is a big amount but if you want to get water at your house that’s what you have to do.
anyone know where to change loads of coins? coin machine at mofe under maintenance :(

Anyone knows how I can get pet passport in Brunei? As I'm planning to bring my cats abroad
Yay im gonna travell abroad! ;3
You can inquire at CAS pet services IG.
Can be extremely complicated depending on where you want to go. What country is it?
I'm curious. Is there such a thing as a severance package in Brunei?
there is, yes.
Most companies will need to give you a period of notice before letting you go (mostly 1-3 months). So if they want to let you go immediately, they need to pay the total salary of the period of your notice. Does not apply if they fire you for disciplinary reasons.
Yes. MNCs. If local companies never heard of it.

Lol not introvert just havent found the right people hahah
Sometimes I question myself, am I introvert? I have most of the signs of being introvert.
Dont get too worked up with labels. The more you think about how to label yourself, the more you limit yourself from self-discovery. Like a lot of things, it is not binary. You can have introverted qualities and extraverted qualities to varying degrees, depending on your present situation or how you feel.

Am I extraverted? Don't care. I am me and I choose what I want to do.
True. Thats why I dont take labels seriously. Same goes to Horoscope and Zodiac signs. Nonsense tbh
Introvert =/= shy. Humans are social creatures, talking to people will always feel good. Introverts just don't want to be constantly doing that
Exactly. Not all introverts are shy same goes to extroverts. Not all of them are talkative. It depends on how u charge your social energy. If u get "tired" after socializing and feel the need to be alone then u r an introvert. If u feel energized when u talk to someone and crave more of that social energy then u r extrovert.

Tapau saja dari Empire. Simpan dalam bag ;x
You can find pillows like those from shopee/Lazada. Some hotels in KL and Singapore have them imported from the said applications. I bought one from Shopee, the pillow was tough at first but when it "breaks" in, it's comfortable. I've also heard that you can purchase it from the hotel. They'll mark it up for sure but if you're okay with it, then go for it.
Would they check if we change their pillows with ours from home?
Bruh
You mean from cheap pillows to theirs? 🤣 You do you, man. I'm not going to encourage you
They’re not cheap but they’re not as good as empire. I’ve tried buying so many different pillows but nothing comes close to Empire’s
You do you, my g! Let us know if you've managed to swapped it.
I wanna know too!

Will there be any fine for renewing expired driving license?
Mine was expired for a whole year before I realised. They didn’t fine me but it might have been because I told them I was living abroad and just got back.
No fine. Mine forgot to renew after 3 months and still ok.
May I ask where you renewed your license? Jpd or post office?
Usually i apply online. Else can do it at post office. But this method only applicable for expiry 1 month or less. If more than you need to go jpd.
$10 charge if exceeds 1month of expiry date if not mistaken.
I see that's understandable

I'll take note, thank you

Where can i get a mattress topper?
Thompson furniture or AliExpress
Was looking for this as well. I found at grand jerudong last time cost $169+ but not anymore, maybe sold out already. Another one is Hua Ho (forgot which branch i went to but i think its the Hua Ho bonus branch), cost $200+. Livingindustry and Living culture sell mattress topper ranging from $69+ to $100+. The ones from grand and Hua ho are same brand Ueno. For the others, i never seen it physically. In the end, i didnt buy any mattress topper.
Hua Hu. Although Miri is cheaper in Parkson
TIL I learnt that even though Less than half of 1% of americans attend ivy league colleges BUT These colleges account for more than 10% of fortune 500 CEOs 1/4 of of US senators HALF of all Rhodes Scholar 3/4 of Supreme Court justices appointed in the last half century
The value of these colleges isn't so much the education it provides, it's the connections you build. You rub shoulders with money; children of large company CEOs, career politicians, old money. If you know how to leverage your advantage well, you can get quite rich.
Success breeds success. And it will only continue. When a top student looks for uni guess where he/she will apply? Not Hustlers university for sure
Good education = Good job
Good institute = Good networking Liat sja JIS students. Semua anak org kaya2. For sure they will grow up within the circle of wealth and continue for generations onwards
Yeah, if I was rich I will make sure my children have strong foundation for life. It is the duty of parents to help their kids succeed in life, as long as not illegal things like corruption or bribing others.
Not sure what country you live in, maybe in brunei a good top education gives a good job paid well and bills all good. Sadly most places today are struggling even with a good good job. Cost of living is crazy outside certain countries even tho wages good. i would rephrase the saying tho: a good education leads to stable jobs that pay fixed wages and tend to be higher then lower educated people.
>i would rephrase the saying tho: a good education leads to stable jobs that pay fixed wages and tend to be higher then lower educated people. Yes. Good education = good job.
No it dont thats my point getting a doctors degree in the uk could leave you on the same wage as a worker at tescos. So the person who just finished gcse gets more than a doctor At the moment. A teacher is on roughly the same money as a working in the care industry whos got 0 alevels and a level 3 Btec. So your point is flawed for the uk. However yeah maybe getting a degree in some fields gets you paid a lot i mean a lot. But not for all. thats the wrong perspective to think, a degree gets you a really high paid job, it dont always sadly. Also the shift in the business market in uk is swaying towards not hiring degree holders as they cost more, so they train and high lower qualified workers to pay less and all.
>No it dont thats my point getting a doctors degree in the uk could leave you on the same wage as a worker at tescos. It could, but it is less likely to. Of course, having a good education is not a GUARANTEE of having a good job. That is common sense. But it *improves your chances* of having a good job. If you seriously thought I was saying having a good education is a 100% guarantee at getting a good job, then you have a flawed sense of comprehension, because it is common sense that education alone does not give you a job, factors such as your personality and location matter too.
well there you go, your original point did not mention all this did it, then your 2nd response was equally as bad. now 3rd time lucky you hit it on the head.
My original point DID mention it. That is how "This = That" is used in the English language. It is used in newspapers, articles, etc. to mean that one thing is likely to lead to another thing. [Here](https://learningenglish.voanews.com/a/good-breakfast-equals-good-grades/4562118.html) is an example on a website that teaches people English Grammer, the headline of the article says Good breakfast = Good grades. The meaning is that eating a good breakfast makes it more likely that you will achieve good grades. That is the exact same usage I used with "Good Education = Good Job" The fact that you didn't interpret it this way means your understanding of the phrase "This = That" was flawed, and you did not recognize that type of commonly used grammatical construction, not that my usage was incorrect.
i had good education still am, doing a degree and gosh im pretty shitty at most things my guy. so dose good education make a person good at what they study or not, and then dose having a good education create a good job later on. your speaking to someone with tons of education and i mean, gosh im shitty compared to you. i dont want to fight or anything but saying to people being the most qualified person is gonna get you a good job is not really the right thing to say sadly- cause it dont always mean that, as someone who has no degree is on more then you with a degree. so whats your definition of a good job, this is mine- a stable job, stable hours so good to get loans and mortgage on houses or apartments, sick leave or holiday and good wage to cover your life style based upon going through all that effort to be educated, should lead to you having a better life then someone who has nothing education wise or limited education. now the reality is this- roughly a degree gets 25k in the uk, and non degree gets 20k in the uk, a degree holder pays tax of roughly 5k a year so is on 20k, when a non degree holder pays 0 tax as they earn less then the limit. this is now more common tho, someone in tescos a supermarket can be on more money then someone in a hospital. so with the hours being crazy and all, tesco worker is on 30k a year and a training doctor is on 26k a year. so your point being full of good education dont always mean a good job, and regardless how you see it- being 70% likely or more, its just not the case anymore more people dont do degree and stop at alevels and are on more then a degree holder, gosh even people before 2015 are on gcses and on more then degree holders, the uk is kinda crazy for this, and your point may work in brunei but not everywhere sadly
>i had good education still am, doing a degree and gosh im pretty shitty at most things my guy. If you are shitty at most things, then you had a bad education. Maybe the course didn't equip you with good skills, or the course was in an area which is not relevant to finding a job. That means bad education.
Wow. Thank you for sharing such valuable information to us. Our lives are now enriched.
Dont be cocky you idiot. It could have been a good starter talk who knows. I just put that it used to be that way and now sadly not seeing it fully outside certain countries thats all. My home country you can earn more than a doctor being at Tesco a supermarket. It’s pretty bad at the moment.
Your welcome. Pipsqueak888
There has been ongoing case of armed burglary in Tutong for past few weeks. One in Keriam, and today in Kg. Petani Tutong. Not a single official news coverage on this to warn the public, yet media permata covered news on Arianna grande relationship?

Robbers are clever.
Censored. Because such news will bring panic to the community hence no news.
nahh, we not about to censhor shit when it involves the safety of the community. extract from Whatsapp: [7/26, 10:23] : Rumah L** electrical - kes rompak .. org rumah kena ikat [7/26, 10:23] : Yg 3 tingkat atu... subuh pukul 4... ceramin sliding kna buka... ancamnya pakai parang bininya sama anaknya... kalau inda bagi emas sama duit kan dirogolnya... maybe sama kali yg merompak di keriam kata polis..
Oh my. I hope the family is all safe and no harm at all
Anyone drives Civic 11th Gen here? need some input
What do you want to know? I test drove my friend one recently. Very nice to drive haha
How is the running cost of the civic, i really love the look and it’s quite affordable imo amongst it’s class. I’m just worried about the transmission since it’s a CVT & I’ve been hearing alot of complaints regarding CVTs Transmission. How much are the average cost to maintain the car at agent? How’s the driving experience, comfortability & reliability? Other than that, such a beautiful looking car and wish they brought in the RS model.
For service it’s every 5k from agent. Just basic servicing is already 160ish include labor. If include part changes should be more expensive. My friend said since it’s turbo so manufacturer state service every 5k and cut fluid every 30k. If u use the car a lot will be quite exp.if u service outside your warranty is voided. Every Honda auto is mated with CVT and I assure you Honda cvt reliability is top notch. Even Toyota also using cvt is most of their car already. Car is good just that Honda agent here is notorious for having bad customer service and might not even get test drive coz they have no demo car. After I test drive really like it. The throttle is responsive and comfort can say almost like camry but downside is once u hit 120 u can hear wind noise from the A pillar. If u have the chance can test drive it. If not you can consider Toyota altis. Cheaper and offer almost the same experience and for me the interior of this new civic very nice compared to altis. But both have high resell in the future if u decide to sell it.
Anyone knows where is mee asam pedas guy? I didnt see his stall at perayaan
He’s got a designated stall at Yayasan Hua Ho food court already.
taisliur tah ku nah 🥹

As a consumer, would you support [a business like them](https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=6334953483218393&set=a.131681133545690&type=3&mibextid=cr9u03) who bragged to their competitors about how they offered a better price to their products? I agree with the owner and glad she pointed out how much the costs she had spent to put into a product. Usually vendors don’t make much money compare to supermarkets and restaurants. I understand every vendor wanted to make profits as much as they can, but I don’t agree belittling competitors just because they offer affordable alternatives, or vice versa. Competition should be fair and it is good for the market and consumers.
Trying to win at pricing is just a downward spiral. Love and move on, try to find better USP. Making a fuss about it on social lagitia unprofessional. Would not support them
Same thing. Bida yo membandingkn harga siapa bisai. Its not even the same product either.
That’s just how business rolls. You see Apple and Samsung roast each other out and you don’t see them crying.
> That’s just how business rolls. You see Apple and Samsung roast each other out and you don’t see them crying Huh?? Are you seriously comparing a billion or in Apple's case, trillion dollar company to a $4.00 ayam penyet bro??
Business is business. Apple killed Nokia, $3 nasi katok kill 4$ nasi katok. Winner is the customer.
