If the Main Door is important to you, I am sure, this article will be of interest to you. Please read on..... Note: In case you want to visit the Property Developer's Website featured in this article here is the URL: Visit Wing Tai Asia - Property In my opinion, Wing Tai Asia, is a `new kid' on the block with regards to it's Property Development scene in Singapore. Their core business is related to "clothing" and is still today. *JOKE* Erh...Perhaps or maybe, they should simply stick to it! Source & Credit: The Straits Times, Singapore 18 April 2002

1. How true is this statement? 2. Well, if you ask me in Singapore, this is very true! In the attached article, you can find out that Singapore families queue up 4 nights in a row just to book a government apartment. 3. In our culture, we hear this term in our daily life: The Kiasu Singaporean. 4. Meaning of Kiasu: Hokkien for "afraid to lose". eg Kiasu Singaporeans will camp overnight for free stuffs. Or in this case.. camp overnight to "book" or buy something... like property? 5. You can also take our `local test' to see whether you are equally considered as a "Kiasu". *JOKE* Can you fit the Singaporean image? Check out this url: http://www.med.nus.edu.sg/pcm/stress/Ki…

And many forgeries of this painting is floating around. 3. For many Chinese businessmen, they love to place a painting of galloping horses. It can be 6, 8 or 9 horses. 4.

Please note that I am suggesting that you go out and go b…

chanced upon this and also noted that the apt front faces a junction. Although situated on the outward bow of the road, the opposite road bows inward. What is such effect on the residence especially one on the low level.

Dear All, In Hong Kong, Hong Kong & Shanghai Banking Corporation HQ building took a desperate attempt to place two cannons. Hong Kong Feng Shui practitioners spare no efforts to use `black' feng shui on others. Even in Singapore, some buildings were built on `black' Feng Shui e.g Suntec City. Warmest Regards, Cecil

For a house which has sloping back and in this example with a major road at it's back, such retaining brick walls are ideal. Notice that the retaining wall(s) are of sufficient height.

This house at the `T' junctions avoid having it's main entrance facing it. It makes sure that there are few openings if any (allowing the threat of sha qi).

Dear All MAKING USE OF THE PRODUCTIVE CYCLE UNDER THE FIVE ELEMENTS CONCEPT Case Study ========== 1. This shop's owner / centre-point of shop display lacks water element. 2.

In my opinion, I personally do not like the colour scheme for this new block of government public housing. Personally, I feel that it is a mismatch of colours especially white with apriot. Furthmore, the wall relief reminds me of the design found on water tanks above the roof tops.

This paranomic picture was taken on an aerial bridge showing part of the Parco Bugis Shopping complex. It has a unique blend of circular glass facade (see above) allowing light into rows of `old style' shopping units - which predates to the individual shop houses of the 1950s to 1960s era. Besides this, Bugis area was formerly famous for transvities that frequent this bugis area in the 1970's. Now due to redevelopment, gone forever. Although this location is not strategically located in the most recent hub of Marina shopping or the old Orchard road shopping area, because it is served by the Bugis MRT, this is indeed a popular hive of activity. It seems one can hardly get …
