Tat can be solved by getting a Rider for waiver of co-insurance.

just an increase in premium thats all. The reason why there is an excess is to bring your financial interest inline with the insurance co, thus allowing them to give you lower premium.

Like my travel insurance, my 6694 damaged, but because i choose A$100 excess, i was out of pocket the first A$100, subsequently the rest was covered. Although I did lose a fair bit in currency rates

Mind Your Body

Hi friends,

I came across this weekly newspaper supplement y'day in the Straits Times and I'd like to highlight some information which I feel may be useful for us. If you can, go grab one copy. It's free if you'd purchase the main papers. To note is one section titled "Heath&You"(pgs 4-55). They have (I personally feel) very good health tips which I did not know until y'day .

These are the noteworthy tips :

• Cracking knuckles leads to arthritis?;
• Drinking milk causes phlegm?;
• Sweat your fever out?;
• Sexually transmitted diseases from toilet seats?; and
• Starve a fever, feed a cold?.

Other titles include :

• "Eyes wide shut" (about sleeping problems);
• "Back to basics" (back problems);
• "A perfect smile" (children's dental health);
• "Sex in the bedroom" (playing it right);
• "Making babies"; and
• "Getting pregnant".

There are many more information in there and I honestly think this week's edition gives very direct, straightforward details. Good enough for laymen like us to know.
