1. Numerous blocks associated with the same neighbourhood HDB flats; at the VOID deck (ground level), every pillar appears to have a tag, such as C4033, etc.. 2. What is the reason for the excessive tagging of the pillars across several blocks of flats? 3. These flats were built between 1984 and 2003, specifically around 1997. They are relatively new and do not appear to be in disrepair. Is it necessary to monitor each pillar as if they are in critical condition? 4. Perhaps the town council requires precise identification of each pillar and its location. For instance, a maintenance team might be alerted... 4.1 Block 391A Compassvale Street, Pillar no. C4033 has st…

In my opinion; this household had placed a pair of elephants as a form of seating .. that's all. Why a pair? Everyone seems to love "pairs or couples" right?

The fan in the attached photos have retractable blades. BUT of aFeng Shui friendlier design... This streamlineand elegant design is better than the earlier boomerang type of design. It looks more "femine".

LATITUDE @31 - 35 Jalan Mutiara, a freehold site completed in 2010. An interesting art piece: could it be that the two statues looks like an L and an inverted L? What do you think?

Yu Huang Gong, Temple of Heavenly Jade Emperor (the former Keng Teck Whay Building), 150 Telok Ayer Street A milestone was marked in Singapore's heritage history on 31 March 2010; Taoist Mission (Singapore) became the new owner of the "Keng Teck Whay" a Singapore's National Heritage Monument situated at 150 Telok Ayer Street amidst the heart of the financial district. The 170 year old building is now a dilapidated state and is desperately in need of restoration and conservation. The building's architectural style and social heirtage is a living testament to the founding members' efforts and contributions during Singapore's early settlement since 1831. The attached ph…

Does this only apply to Singapore? Urinating in lifts can bring grief - to the offender! In Singapore, this is a fine of up to $1,000.00 Many Singapore public housing lifts even has this warning etched on the lift wall " URINE DETECTION " or " Camera-Ready" (As the word camera-ready just means it! No camera installed, yet!" Oh! I forgot! SINGAPORE IS ALSO FAMOUSLY KNOWN AS A "FINE CITY". And for tourists coming to Singapore, it is certainly worth buying a "tourist" T-Shirt with such a "name!" Do get such a t-shirt; in Silly Singapore!

Government's Asset Enhancement Scheme 1. Photos taken@ Teck Whye Lane showing a block of flat in the process of installing several lift shafts to ensure that each unit can be reached by a lift. 2. Formerly, such a block has a central lift and the lifts often only stops at staggered floors e.g. 1, 3, 6, 9, 11 floors. 3. One good thing about the lifts to every unit is to allow the elderly and allow for wheel-chair friendly access. 4. Previously this government asset enhancement scheme was a "carrot" used during every elections (in the past): "if you don't vote for me; you don't get such an upgrading". Many believe;in the 2016 elections; thisis no longer a carrot nor a stick…

Uncommon to find a pair of elephant figurines at establishments in Singapore. Elephants are revered in both India and Thailand. This Elephant seems oriental as the body of the elephant has the carvings of the five claw dragon.

Again, this is pure commonsense that if we can avoid; try to avoid staying near to petrol stations. Where possible, since this new estate: Compassvale Beacon does not have any units on the ground level; try to avoid staying on the second or even third level; as a safety precaution against vapour or fumes from the daily pumping of petrol / diesel and the storage and filling up by petrol tanks..

I believe this is the government's first ever (Housing Development Board - a government statutory board's) foray into "condo development". This "condo" type of development has a total of three tower blocks and many do really have city views. Tower type of blocks or "point-blocks" are again a very forgiving structures. As each tower block allows air or qi to circulate in and around the entire blocks thus often; it does not sufferas much from "still" or less vibrant qi. If you take a close look at the photo image: city view5.jpg; when one steps into this development; one can see a very pleasant retro classy black and white checker-board style flooring. When we step closer t…

The Beeh Low See Buddhist Temple is nestled between Jalan Jurong Kechil and Toh Yi. The main building of the temple is sitting South facing North and elevated on a hill. Based on Shapes and Forms Feng Shui; it is said to be sitting on a hill, facing water". What is unique about this temple is the entire Toh Yi Housing Board Flats were literally built around it. Here, the temple came first; before the homes!
