  Haha bro careful ah...Nowadays speaking something from ur mind on the net is interpreted as words from the mouth being transferred into text to spread a malicious info....Although i kinda agree with u man. Alwasy wanted to apply for cable tv for soccer only but it seems like the more popular it become, the higher they rise the sports price. What to do...Kopitiam rulessss

  Where got cannot cancel? All good policies allow cancellation of service. Just that you have to pay a nominal sum to them(of which is very high).

  This part is correct lah. Those who receive the SMSes to stop downloading but are still downloading are now in CID drinking coffee.

  Just that God decided to give you chance to repent. I won't be surprised if the next wave of clamping down on downloaders and you are involved.

  Today in papers there's an article on WiMAX which allows wireless broadband with range of up to 50km range. Maybe in future we can pressure Indo or Malaysian ISP to have WiMAX service so we dun need to be the slave of Starhub, Singtel and PacNet.
