Do you love to shop? Well, if you're traveling to Singapore, shopping along the Orchard Road belt and Suntec City is an event you must not miss. There are sales all round the year, especially during July (The Great Singapore Sale) and the Christmas season. This article shows you some special tips for shopping on the island state.

1. Prices and Bargains
Before you buy anything, make sure you check and double-check the price. In the major shopping malls (e.g. Takashimaya) - it's usually safe to assume that prices are fixed. However, if you're shopping in 'bargain' area like the Bugis Village flea market, Lucky Plaza, Little India, Chinatown or Sim Lim Square, make sure you bargain and try to bring down the prices.
2. Credit / Charge Cards
Most major shopping centres and malls, along with restaurants, will accept credit cards and charge cards. However, be sure that you bring along a more acceptable kind of card like Visa or Mastercard. I can't vouch for the wide acceptance of other cards like American Express or Diner's Club.

3. Money Changers
There are many money changers on the island. What I'd be careful with regarding money changers is this - watch out and make sure they are licensed. In Little India and probably Chinatown, there tends to be many unlicensed changers who may short-change you if you're not careful. To be safe, you can change money at a bank or the hotel - but it will be more expensive.
4. Sales
As mentioned, there are sales throughout the year in Singapore. One of these is the Chinese New Year sale around end January each year, along with the Great Singapore Sale (June and July) and the Christmas sale (Dec). Be sure that your shopping trip coincides with one of these sales if you want the best bargains.

5. Deposits
Some stores will accept an initial deposit and allow you to pay up the balance upon delivery. Make sure you understand the exact terms and conditions of such arrangements before you sign on the dotted line.
6. Goods and Services Tax (GST)
All goods and services in Singapore are subject to a 3% GST tax. Be sure you're aware of this when you're out shopping. Check the receipt to ensure there is no over deduction.
7. Exchanges and Refunds
If you find that the stuff you bought is faulty merchandise, you can bring back the original receipt or proof-of-purchase and ask for an exchange or refund. But note that mostly only the bigger department stores will honor such a policy. If you have fault goods from a small street side vendor, then don't expect to be able to do this.

While on assignment and at the executive hotel, it should be a safe sanctuary for your principal. However, hotels are now becoming prime targets for terrorism evident by the two recent Indonesia Jakarta hotel bomb blasts at the Ritz-Carlton and Marriott.

First rule in executive protection: don't make any more enemies. To do this start cultivating professional networks with the hotel security staff. Meet with the security director as part of your advance work. Communicate with him or her effectively and seek the advice from hotel security directors they know the hotel and the area best.
Ask for assistance directly oriented towards your principal's safety and convenience. This should include special parking privileges, use of a private elevator, additional security patrols near your principal's hotel suite, etc. Kindly as the hotel security director to ensure that your instructions are followed.

During your visit maintain respectful and professional relationships with the entire hotel staff as well, but don't be chummy, Don't look at the executive hotel as a temporary rooming house. Think of it as a place to build your support network, gain the ability to tap into professional relationships, obtain special insights and allocate resources directly towards your principal's safety and comfort requirements.
By using these methods you will have a hotel security staff who care about the protective and comfort needs of your principal. Building these support networks translates into more security, privacy, flexibility and less headaches. These connections will allow you to do your core job of executive protection better and help you achieve great assignment success.
By taking advantage of the hotel's security staff you will have a network of professional who care about your security wants, needs and desires during your stay at the hotel. The only problems come to agents who make outrageous requests without first expanding their network and influence at the executive hotel. Do this and you will have a staff of people at the hotel making you feel that everything is being done just for your principle. These deliverables are priceless in our industry. Keep safe and God speed.

Are you a solo professional? So what does that mean? Are you any different than a C Level executive, entrepreneur or small business owner?
In our lives be them business, professional or personal, unless we can clearly crystallize specific terms that we use every day, we end up hitting more often than not the wrong targets. For example, can you define the following words for yourself:

• Success?
• Purpose?
• Passion?
• Values or business ethics?
• Quality?
• Professional?

Many solo professionals include these words on their web sites, in their every day speech and thoughts. Yet, what do these words really mean to us especially the word professional

When we think of someone being a professional, we look at specific behaviors that this person demonstrates. These behaviors may include:

• Dress
• Personal cleanliness such as clean hair, clean nails, etc.
• Speech from actual spoken words to syntax
• Body language
• Actual physical and verbal interchanges

Within the word professional is what has been now taken as another word that being pro. This first syllable of this word is "pro" which is also a word (adverb) and means for (Latin). Pro can also be used as an adjective and means before (Greek).
Possibly, we can use the word pro as an acronym using 3 additional words to better define what we mean when we say pro.
The first letter is P. People who are Pros or are professional are very personable. They reach out and look to others to help or to be helped by.

R is the next letter. Solo professionals must always be respectful. Being everything from errand runner to billing clerk to sales professional demands being respectful to everyone. This is sometimes a challenge with all the changing of the hats solo professional experience every day as they run their businesses.
O is the final letter. By being open, solo professionals have the ability to maximize opportunities and thus work smarter and not harder.

Malaysia advertises itself as '"Truly Asia", it's easy to see why when you land in the capital, Kuala Lumpur. Kuala Lumpur is a mind boggling and endearingly chaotic city. The most dazzling combination of history and tradition and range of multi cultural cuisine is a treat to the tourists. Kuala Lumpur is a truly international city and home to many expatriates who have found it comfortable as well hospitable. It has some of the best Malaysia hotels also some of the best international hotel chains. It boasts some of the most interesting shopping malls selling a range of electronic goods, clothing and of course food courts. The singularity of the malls is in stark contrast to the variety available at Kuala Lumpur's street markets from cheap imitations to genuine antiques.

Rantau Abang is completely different from Kuala Lumpur. Some years back it was famous for the beautiful leatherback turtle until tourism and crowding affected the nesting patterns. Today turtle sightings are rare but the beaches are still a popular holiday destination for Malaysians. Georgetown, Penang's major city is a reflection of Malaysia's colonial heritage. The lovely old buildings are reminiscent of Britain. It is a UNESCO world heritage site and has architectural contributions from China, colonial Britain and local community. It has many interesting places and is a tourist friendly place and most tourist attractions are accessible by walk
Sandakan, a city in Sabah province is a good getaway for wildlife enthusiasts. The Sepilok Orangutan rehabilitation centre and the Turtle Island National Park are both around Sandakan. Wildlife enthusiasts love these two places. Kota Kinabalu is another city in the Sabah province and the two areas are noted for their fresh seafood. As proud as Malaysia is of its diversity, Kuala Terengganu is the mainstay of the Malays. This is where the Malay culture and heritage is best viewed. It has many beautiful mosques including the lovely floating mosque. It is the gateway to several gorgeous beaches and islands that are found along the coast.
Across Malaysia, the cuisine reflects the multi ethnicity and the multicultural nature of the country. The food reflects its history and is happy amalgamation of Indian, Chinese and Malay cuisines. There are also lovely contributions from the many indigenous natives of Malaysia. The Malaysian cities have as much to offer as their more popular island counterparts. In the end visitors have only two words to say to Malaysians for this truly Asian experience-Terimah Kasih means Thank You in Malay.
