The Art of implementation is equally important as the science of it-

Mr Gerald Giam Yean Song asked the Minister for National Development (a) how many HDB blocks are more than 40 years into their 99-year lease; (b) what will be the value of an HDB flat once it reaches the end of its 99-year lease; (c) what is the average number of flats undergoing redevelopment under the Selective En Bloc Redevelopment Scheme (SERS) each year for the past 10 years; and (d) whether the pace of SERS is fast enough to redevelop all HDB blocks before they reach the end of their lease. Mr Khaw Boon Wan (The Minister for National Development): The Selective En bloc Redevelopment Scheme (SERS) is part of the Government?s estate renewal strategy for older estates. It allows intensification of land use and revitalises such estates through new developments. At the same time, it offers an opportunity for flat owners to buy a new replacement flat with a fresh 99 year lease. In the last 10 years, SERS has benefitted the owners of about 18,000 flats. As the name suggests, the identification of suitable precincts for SERS is selective. The selection of sites and pace of SERS will depend on factors such as their redevelopment potential, and the availability of replacement sites for rehousing and other resources. Currently, there are about 300 HDB blocks with 31,000 flats which are more than 40 years into their 99-year flat leases. Like all leasehold properties, HDB flats will revert to HDB, the landowner, upon expiry of their leases. HDB will in turn surrender the land to the State. [Source: Singapore Parliament Reports]

This is one of the many considerations under Can or Cannot Buy this home or that home?

Research is the key to the "Art" of Feng Shui. Not products. When the buying, Stops! The selling, Can!

My geomancer says I lack the fire element. I need "fire" in my life...

Clue: "Many of the so called Feng Shui products were produced not too long ago. And many of them are modern commercial products sold under the guise of Feng Shui." Remember that your parents and grand-parents time don't have such products like the three-legged toad, crystals and many other useless products... When the buying, stops. The selling, can!

#3 = Quarrels, conflicts and legal entanglements in the SE sector, this year

The Water Wealth or Current Prosperity sector for Year 2014 is at the South. Here, one may consider placing a water feature especially if this is the balcony cum living room area. But a water position may not be appropriate if this is a bedroom, storeroom or kitchen.. etc... Do take note that if a sector is considered auspicious; an alternative is to have an activity (or activity in that area).

Blame it on the stars-Flying Stars! #5 = misfortune / sickness #2 = sickness #3 = quarrels, conflicts & legal entanglements... Take note the following sectors, this year:- Sickness Star this year is atEast Misfortune/Sickness Star this year is atNorth-West Disputes/Quarrel Star this year is atSouth-East Education/Romance Star this year is atCenter Grand Duke this year isSouth, 180 Degree. - Avoid sitting facing the grand duke or disturbing him by having renovations. Location in Conflict isNorth. - Avoid having renovations done opposite the location in conflict.

This Lunar Year:- North-West is influenced by #5 = Misfortune & Sickness. A concern if this is the bedroom (bed-location) or open spaces where activities are to be carried out e.g. the living room. This Year's wealth sector #8 is at the South of the home or office. The Year of the Horse:- http://www.geomancy.net/resources/yearly-forecast/fortunes-2014.htm

My Earth Luck = Feng Shui is good = A+++. But his is bad... an "F-grade"

The dog sure "hates" The dog whisperer... can't blame him....

Flying Star Feng Shui: Sector has stars [1] & [6] = Power and Authority (Especially good for police or uniformed personnel & also generally good sector). "

A mad Master + his equipment = demonstrating his concept of "the flow of qi".....

Would you believe: Even entities needs a rest?

Red is my auspicious colour... It is yours?

This fruit stall is literally stocked with nearly all varieties of fruits....

I had mentioned previously, a test of whether a home is concerned with a Sha Qi or poison arrow is to imagine if "a run-away vehicle could in a straight-line - smash into the home"... In this case, less lightly for the house marked in yellow as "A". But is more highly likely for house marked as "B". If one follows the purple line....

This is one of the situations where; perhaps; you really need an expert to be there ON-SITE to do a judgement call. Especially since the new owner(s) are perplexed with the period since you have plotted every of the relevant period chart. Unfortunately, such a huge chunk or mass of words, sentences... can't give a clue, here. "Let's be physicial" = ONSITE : especially the human sight & smell...

The Block to the right of the photo....This semi-arc design ensures that all the stacks face the same direction. Especially good there is a good frontage such as the sea...

More photos...

This estate Blocks 780, 780A to 780G is close to the Woodlands Industrial estate TOP recently. The exterior walls and the interior passage-ways also spot a greenish colour. Shown in the photos... workers were feverishly trying to work on the common property which you can see is not even completed, yet.

Frankly, there is no "Encyclopedia Britannica" for such situations. And there are so many varying opinions. For example, even during the Chinese 7th month; some have booked a house or a car during that month. While others are fearful to do so.
