Kandang Kerbau Market History. Today it is renamed Tekka Market Tekka Market, also known as Kandang Kerbau Market, was built in 1915 and became a well-known marketplace for fresh cut meat. The name, Kandang Kerbau, made reference to the surrounding cattle trade and means "buffalo enclosure" in Malay. The Chinese called it tek kah because of the wild bamboo found in the area. The original market was located across Serangoon Road, opposite the present site. Tekka Market was popular amongst all communities and known as the "people's market". It gained a reputation for its varied and reasonably priced fresh vegetables, meat and seafood. During the redevelopment of ".e …

An old estate. Tasty food... Many new food court does not feature turtle soup. Old estates like Old Airport FC still has one. Their dry noodles is very tasty, the shiny gleam means that all the noodles are evenly coated with spices and chilly. Dry is $3/- One of the best.. I had tasted. You will certainly become Happy and Lucky once you tasted this vegetarian food stall. I believe this stall’s satay must be delicious... Are you studying for your Master’s degree? If so, you will sure to pass if you eat at this stall: Where to buy delicacies? Here... Rarely seen a ve…

Kim's Fried Hokkien Prawn Mee @ Jalan Eunos Branch Kims first opened a stall in a coffeeshop at Changi Road in the early 1970's. (At 5 1/2 mile Changi Road) Oveall, their hokkien prawn mee is in my opinion, better than many other comparable fried hokkien mee. What is unique about it is that Kim's always wear long sleves and pants with a shiny Rolex watch pluc a distinctive Mercedes belt. He has two large woks. His version like that of the old school style Hokkien mee is the drier version. Another famous stall serving drier hokkien mee is at old airport road. The old airport road stall gives less value as his $5/- is a small packet with sliced chil…

Dear Anon, Thanks for your comments. Whenever, I personally detect a `tone' in writing of someone wanting `Instant Feng Shui' as in "instant coffee", or fast food Feng Shui. I mentioned to contact a Feng Shui practitioner in the hope of `bringing' some reality i.e. it is difficult to do a proper Feng Shui if one is new. Thus ideally, in such situations, best to go get a Feng Shui practitioner (competent one). By giving the above example, my hope is that if one practises Feng Shui, I have mentioned thus to go slow. As the common saying goes, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. Warmest Regards, Cecil

Dear Steven, Generally, it is very difficult to comment based on a few characters of the English language, as there are many variants or terminology used. Perhaps, if you can later recall, some of the characteristics, this may help. Some Chinese Feng Shui methods, may not be accurate because, in the past, it was said that a certain Chinese emperor, planted falsehood, while selfishly kept the `real secrets' with him etc... Thus, not all literature, even in the past may be used. Warmest Regards, Cecil Thank

Carjacking Foiled An elderly lady did her shopping and upon return found 4 males in her car. She dropped her shopping bags and drew her handgun, proceeding to scream at them at the top of her lungs that she ?knows how to use it and will shoot if required... so get out of MY car!? The 4 men didn?t wait around for a second invitation. They out and ran like mad, where upon the lady proceeded to load her shopping bags into the back of the car and got into the drivers seat. Small problem: Her key wouldn?t fit the ignition. Her car was identical and parked four or five spaces further down. She loaded her bags into her car and drove to the police station. The sergeant that she t…

We can draw a parallel of the keen observation required by a Professor of medicine to the keen powers of observation; in Feng Shui.... The Power of Observation ! Students at the UH Med School were receiving their first anatomy class with a real dead human body. They were gathered around the surgery table with the body covered with a white sheet. Then the professor started the class by telling them: ?In medicine, it is necessary to have 2 important qualities as a doctor. The first is that it is necessary that you not be disgusted.? The Professor uncovered the sheet, sunk his finger in the ass of the dead body, withdrew it and sucked it. ?Go ahead and do the same thing,? he…

As I have said before,many bazi and fengshuilearnersjump on the bandwagon just to rake it in,and quickly too.Not only new practitioners,but the so-called experienced ones are,well,obsessed with money too.That's why they need to have fengshui "conventions",advertise full-page in the papers, etc,in order to raise their public profiles in the world. Paying close to S$300 just for a bazi reading?For that amount,you can get many good books on bazi and read up yourself,or read the postings on bazi forums. Am rather curious what "secrets"the "experts" will graciously "transmit" to the audienceat the coming Singapore fengshui"convention" at Suntec City.At last year's(2007) "c…

Dear Karen: Feng Shui consultations can cost around $500.00 up, this may or may not include round trip air fare depending on where your chosen consultant resides. May I suggest investing in basic feng shui books. This is not only for finding out good information like, "where is my wealth corner", but for the purpose of understanding what your feng shui consultant is talking about and the purpose of any changes being made. Under "Book" recommendations, Robert and Cecil Lee recommend "Feng Shui for Beginners" by Richard Webster. Other good beginning books are; Feng Shui for Apartment Living by Richard Webster Feng Shui Step By Step by T. Raphael Simons The Western Guide To…

Dear Anon, I would like to point out that `light' does not necessary mean `bulb' electricity. I believe our Sun came about long before the `bulb' electricity came into place. Usually, when I mentioned about lighting, e.g. it refers to natural light and necessary the `Edison' light bulb. I hope you *Joke* can now look at lighting from a different perspective. Warmest Regards, Cecil
