Now not cheap already after renovation.
The last time I heard was 1 day $1200 to book about a 5 room size aircon funeral parlour. Now shd be more. Easy rack up to $20k for 1 funeral.

In late September, veteran undertaker Roland Tay Hai Choon was charged with evading income taxes and not registering his business for the Goods and Services Tax (GST).

Few years ago, at my late mother’s funeral, the Chinese monk from China, was quite professional. He would explain to us the purpose of each prayer and chanting.
If not most of the time, I think nobody will understand the monk chanting is about.
We actually teased him even monks also have foreign talent…

Civil servant , Public servant THEIR JOB IS TO SERVE PEOPLE
NOT WE THE PEOPLE DOING THEIR JOB!
