tamarind - wld like to check w you: how do we check which cr card cld be used? there is an option for mastercard as well in \"overseas payment\"?

windows,
All the payment options are listed when you are about to make payment.

Mastercard also uses the Secure Online Shopping (Verified by Visa) feature, it is the same as the Visa card.

So far I have only used Citibank Visa to pay successfully for 6 times. dangdang website did not say which credit card can be used. They only say that they use the \"Verified by Visa\" feature. If you google \"Verified by Visa\" and go to the visa website, you will find that only Citibank credit card in Singapore has this feature.

Amex card is also listed as onle of the options. According to another parent, DBS Amex card is the eaiest to use.

I have no knowledge of other payment options.

How is your order ? Have they shipped out already ?

hi all,


I found ‘Words & Images’ by ‘King of the Chinese Series’ at You Lian, Bras Basah. It is published by ‘King of the Learning Centre Pte Ltd’ which runs Chinese enrichment classes at Leng Kee CC.

‘This book cleverly transforms abstract and challenging Chinese chracters into interesting pictures from which the characters were formed. From the pictures, young children will recognise as well as understand the meaning of the related Chinese characters’

If there are other parents using this book to teach their children Chinese at home, please share here. Thanks

Hello,


Just want to share with everyone here.

The Word & Images bk 1-3 are found in Toa Payoh popular branch. Left 3 sets since the last time I saw it on Friday evening. I bought it at $26.xx after 10% discount.

As for the Word & Images bk 4 (which Wan has shown above) are found in Union Book Co at Bras Besah.

Hello Tamarind,

Hahaha! Same question as Pokemon. How do you know whether a book is good when there is no sample pictures (unlike amazon).

Can share? :clubmyself: I am very blur in chinese reading.
