Just received this comment below from a new resident of Pearl Garden and his or her questions are quite valid. Can GE Tan and MC comment on this? I am keen to know the answers too. Thank you very much.
Hello Jimmy,
Nice to meet you.
I’m curious to know whether we can use the facilities of PG’s club-house (like swimming pool, Gym room, Aerobic room, squash court) to earn side-income? Is there any rule/law in PG’s handbook describe the Do & Don’t?
Sometime I observed we do have Yoga-course, swimming course or other courses which I believe is not organized by PG right (I do see some outsiders coming to join the courses). hence, it triggers me to think whether we can use these facilities for business purposes.
If yes, what is the condition?
Rgs,
Resident from Block C

Hi Resident Block C,
ReplyDeleteHere is the reply from the management on the above issue.
Jimmy,
We do not encourage resident to make use of common facility to make side income. Management need to review the request from case to case.
We approved Yoga class previously for PG residents. If there is not enough students from PG to form the class, we allow outsider to join the session. Every class must have at least 1 PG resident and the fees paid by resident must be lower than outsider.
Tuition is definitely not allowed.
Pls ask the person interested to conduct the class to submit their proposal to management for approval.
Regards,
KS Gan
Gan,
ReplyDeleteDo we have the house rules ready? If available, the residents could refer to it.
Hi Resident Block C,
ReplyDeleteHere's another comment from the management.
Jimmy,
Pls ask him to send the hard copy as management may not have answer for him.
We will discuss this in our monthly meeting on next Saturday.
Regards,
KS Gan
Hi, since someone has highlighted this issue, then i also would like to seek some comment from PG management team.
ReplyDeleteI would like to learn and play tennis and squash, however, i am lacking buddy. Recently, i find some sport buddies (not PG resident). Therefore, can i invite them to play with me in PG?
Somemore, if i invite my colleague swim with me in PG pools, can do?
Hopefully i can get permission la, or else, i hardly invite junior Lee join us leh.. hehe..
Ping
Hi Ping,
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky leh...I am a keen tennis, squash player...and also looking for players...if you want to play, give me a call...
I think for the game which requires two to play, in deed a partner is necessary whether his or she is from outside...tak kan we play tennis alone and whack the wall like orang gila.
I believe if our friends obey the rules and regulation of PG, no problem wor...
Ping, did you invite Lee Jr or not? Belum cuba, belum tahu...
Hi Jimmy... i think you marry hor? hehe..
ReplyDeletenot yet date him la, but will need to cuba later lor if he likes to play tennis or squash.
Need some excuse for gathering ma, right?
My friend like stocky or little chubby one.. so any stocky and little chubby guy wants to play tennis or squash, can contact contact la.
Kita sama sama main BOLA. hehe...
Ping
Wei Ping,
ReplyDeleteMarried aredi cannot play tennis or squash ah? LOL...look it is time for all of us to get together and know each other and talk rubbish while playing tennis or squash. I am free in the evenings and I really need the exercise...
Hi, talking about tennis, i actually also like it after i enjoy watching tennis tournament on tv... especially recent US open, very nice watching...
ReplyDeletebut, i never play tennis before, i dont have racquet or balls... is there anyone who willing to play with beginner? then i should try to play.
I been here for 4 years plus and i never use the tennis court, LOL... so lau yiah am i!
Recently also getting 'tayar' mark on stomach, really need to work out...
J.
J,
ReplyDeleteNo problem la...we can start playing tennis first, exercise and sweat...play on this Friday evening? Anyone wanna join? I have 2 rackets...
I agree to Gan’s comment. I think the core purpose of the common facilities is only for PG Residents and their accompanied guest and not for commercial by individual or management. Sorry, correct me if I am wrong. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, it should be free for all PG residents but however a small token charge for facilities/equipment rental is reasonable to ensure confirmation on the booking and some assurances and accountability from the “normal” people using it. Incomes derived from this are insufficient to exempt us from paying RM135 or reduce it to RM80.
Unless this cat is allowed to open a “cat-house” at the former show-unit then maybe the income will be enough….ummm, is it a good idea??? LOL
Jimmy,
You fit the description, the stubby type???? Oh…anyway, please do not confuse nice people like Ping or her friends regarding the games or activities.
When playing solitaire squash, (not tennis) you whack the wall with your balls, it will return to you. For solitaire tennis, you whack your balls at where God knows; it will not return to you…you need to pick them up yourself later. One more thing, you forgot to say how good you are at bedminton or is it bownling? Is it belum cuba, belum tahu, sudah cuba, lagi mahu??
Also, you did not tell Ping that whoever is over 21, do not need permission to do anything, whether here at PG or anywhere else. Just book and secure the place for the activities.
BTW, all using the PG swimming pool should be in the proper swimming attire, outsider has one advantage though, and they can do so in their birthday suit…. Jimmy, people wish to see you in trunks ley.....LOL

Hi Jimmy and everyone else,
ReplyDeleteI'm also interested in playing some tennis, as I too am carrying a little too much holiday and travel weight... Do let me know if you feel like a game, I'm always up for some exercise, and I have 2 extra racquets, if anyone wants to have a go :)
Cat,

I try to go back early on Friday, coz having audit this week... if i can make it, i surely will join, but someone need to lend me racquet coz i dont have any. Thank u in advance.
Good nite,
J.

Aiya...like that ar, cannot explain in the blog ma, sensitive lo to the PG wives, they will skin this cat alive lah.

cat
soli.. i read this late.
ReplyDeleteso any single stocky macho guy playing tennis on last friday?
Ping
Ping,
ReplyDeleteJoin us la next time around, there is this "Lee Hom" look alike by the name of Vincent playing that evening..Stocky male got la, but not macho and not single.....
'Lee Hom'? u sure or not?? how old is he leh?
ReplyDeletewhen will be next time leh?
aiyah, pity stocky guy is not single, hehe..
Ping
Ping,
ReplyDeleteReally leh...only own PG Lee Hom...next tennis game all depends on you...main actor and actress must be there ma..you decide and let me know..
And his age, about 26...
aiyah, 26 too young la.. thought is same age range as jr Lee...
ReplyDeletewell, i will be on holiday during raya holiday... u all go anywhere??
Ping
Ping,
ReplyDeleteToo young ah? Wei, what age range are you looking for?
Will be back from Beijing this Friday and probably stay at home. Need to do some real exercise to trim down the tummy. Eating too much aredi..LOL
Jimmy,
ReplyDeleteSince Jr. Lee seems elusive, maybe Ping’s friend would like to consider giving Uncle Lee a shot? He has been available for quite some time now. Ask Ping to check it out with her friend, probably this could be her second preference.
Tell her, Uncle Lee is like “Ginseng”, the older it gets, the better it becomes, potently.
Ping’s friend could be indebted to you for life for discovering this treasure.
What say you, wanna take a chance? Come on….make it happen, man….LOL
cat
Cat,
ReplyDeleteLOL..you crazy la...Uncle Lee like old ginger...
Jimmy,
ReplyDeleteLOL....ya lor, same meaning ma..."old ginger" is "hot" ley. umm...Ping, your friend wants to confirm this status?
cat
what my friend prefer is like Jr Lee age range.. middle 30 to early 40.
ReplyDeletewoman like this age, desperate to have one guy for loving ma.. right? hehe...
old ginger is good, but 'kuay tao por' liao la... (in hokkien), beh tahan later, haha
But after sunday incident, i guess i wont recommend Jr Lee to my friend liao...
Ping
Man, had no idea what was happening here... What lee hom la? Most people who just met me normally say that, but I definitely don't look like him upon closer scrutiny. Anyways, Jimmy et al, do drop me a message whenever you're interested in getting your pert tummy back :P
ReplyDeleteHi Vincent,
ReplyDeleteYup, I wanna get rid of the beer stomach...I can be reached at 012-4010883.
Hi Vincent,
ReplyDeleteSo, my earlier assumption why your car was scratched is correct because you look like “Lee Hom”, right?? Now you know who is the vandal??? Answer: Ping’s friend after finding out you are “Lee Hom” but felt disappointed as you are too young and not stocky….LOL
Ok, jokes aside, please share with us the set of exercise or diet that people need to retain tummy pertness. Can you write it here in the blog?
Hi Ping,
You have told us the reasons why a man over 30 is still not married; do you mind also telling us the reasons for women????.....LOL
cat
Cat,
ReplyDeleteInteresting.....Ping any answer ah?
Cat, I'm no gym expert or anything, in fact, I don't exercise a whole lot and I have a body comparable to that of a lamp post, but I guess the general rule of thumb is the more you exercise, the more calories you burn and 'hopefully' the more fat you lose (preferably around the tummy area) :P
ReplyDeleteVincent,
ReplyDeleteOIC....I thought you got a six-pack tummy. People like Jimmy and me got a tummy due to six-pack, that's the difference...shit! Right, Jimmy?....LOL
Nice talking to you.
cat
Cat,
ReplyDeleteLOL...yup,used to have flat tummy like Bruce Lee but its left is one bloated "sai thor"...shit stomach...
