RenoKu presents Starting and Planning Your Renovation - Part 2, the sequel to the wildly popular (what else?) Part 1. Part 1 was previously the most popular RenoKu article and was read by approximately 9.5 people from around the world. This strange figure occurred because one person only managed to read half of the article before the computer suddenly went up in smoke in a mysterious X-Files-like fashion.
The title of the most popular post has since gone to the MML Tile Estimator. Apparently, there are a whole lot of people out there most interested in counting tiles (a very strange phenomenon).
Continuing where Part 1 left off, this edition of Starting and Planning Your Renovation brings three more useful tips. Without further ado, let's read on!

Finding yourself short of cash for your renovation? Bank Rakyat (Bank Kerjasama Rakyat Malaysia Bhd) and interior designer Casa Impian Sdn Bhd will be glad to help with their interesting personal loan called Personal Financing i-Aslah Purchase Plus.
What this means is that customers will be able to take a loan from Bank Rakyat by engaging Casa Impian for their interior design and renovation work. The minimum amount for the loan is RM50,000 to a maximum of RM150,000. The interest rate is stated to be as low as 4.9% per annum and monthly installment as low as RM53. Repayment period is up to 15 years for qualified applicants.
Those outside Klang Valley are out of luck at the moment since Bank Rakyat will initially only offer this financing facility for those in the Klang Valley. Reason given is that this product involves detailed consultation and layout presentation to each applicant.

Here in Malaysia, we are fortunate to have so many choices of timber to choose from. So much so, it can be confusing to differentiate one type of wood from the next. Fortunately, there are resources online where we can look for information. All thanks to Malaysia's Multimedia Super Corridor that has brought the country many benefits among which include isolating all IT geeks in a far flung place called Cyberjaya and bringing broadband to Malaysians in the form of Scream-max (which is what one does when their broadband internet connection goes down).
Oh where were we?
Ah! Wood.
Here is a summary of this post contents:
- Table showing timber strength, applications and moisture content
- Timber Verification Services
- Description of Commercial Malaysian Timber
- Showcase of Malaysian Hardwood Flooring
