      don’t make unnecessary stop. how much can you save from eating in JB or buying petrol in JB?


      those driving luxury car or MPV must hv done their sums to know whether it is worthwhile venturing to JB for grocery and fill up gas.

      back to topic, no one should take safety for granted. one should be vigilant and have some common sense wherever they go.

              Does anyone know where exactly the incident happened? Just curious since it happened within 3km from JB/Woodlands Checkpoint, which is quite near.

                Read about this incident from another local forum, happened in early May this year to some guys. Probably real as the poster is quite active in that forum, and nothing to gain from creating a story. But I do not know this poster in person.



                They had lunch at the JB \"paper wrapped\" chicken place and had park their car beside the canal. When they were about to leave when a middle aged man suddenly came to the car and took out a syringe filled with dark red liquid.

                He prevented his friend from closing door and switched off engine, syringe was just right beside friend's arm.

                The man then said in chinese \"Boss, can help me? Give me RM100 or else I will poke you with the syringe\".

                They did not have enough ringgit on them as they were planning to change at KSL after lunch, that syringe man got even more agitated when they shown him all they had left was RM50+. He then demanded S$50 and by this time the syringe was almost touching his friend's skin.

                Syringe man left and walked into back alley after he gave him the money, female passenger inside car had a bad scare when she saw syringe beside her husband.
                Same thing happened to my friend at a car-park. He was alone then getting into his car. He said it was nerve-wrecking. :nailbite:

                    A photo of that place was published in today’s Straits Times. Said to be a popular spot for Singaporean to stop and buy some fruits before heading back. The dark parking space is right next to the stalls. Maybe Singaporean will start stopping their cars right infront of the stalls instead.


                    Safer to take chance with traffic police than to risk getting robbed or kidnapped.
