  5. T.O.P. expected in May 2020 Oops! Spoke too soon! Have to wait a few more months! We may have to camp at East Coast or West Coast Park! Our rental lease just ran out...
  6. Not a resident. This is not from 100 Palms. Photo taken around two or more years ago at another development.
  7. What is the 1st Habit of Feng Shui?
  8. No need for a person's birth date for roof-tile selection. A photo tells a thousand words! In I-ching water (blue) above one’s head implies difficulties.
  9. Case Study: If you really need to sent through us an email via your hotmail / live / outlook account, please include your HP no. (via WhatsApp) also. Thank You. I am more worried about hotmail. As a few of my mails, please check your spam. Not too scared of office.. office.. is more of a privacy issue Have just sent a total of five emails. thank Client: It really went to junk. I move them to inbox Ya, hotmail e-mail filtering is one of the worst I have seen. Always have this issue. That's why usually nowadays when I see the order from hotmail, I usually will whatsapp/sms them just to double check. FYI, hotmail.com/live.com/outlook.com are the same hosted by hotmail server.

  11. What could be worse! Then this? To be stuck in a west facing home in the equator. Don’t need to open windows? Given that windows can still use a uv-protected tint... Experienced buyers even if they are west group.. may even give that house a miss.
  12. Post from tan suee chieh ex ntuc income ceo who is an actuarist (calculates risks of people dying or getting sick to calculate premiums to charge for insurance) its long but v sensible esp when it tells u the odds of dying from normal old age is higher than from the virus.... COVID-19 – A psychological and an actuarial approach. There is a lot of fear of COVID-19 coronavirus. Largely, it is the fear of unknown, as this virus is new. As Gandhi said, “The enemy is fear. We think it is hate; but, it is fear.” As a trained psychologist and an actuary, and a student of crowd dynamics, I would like to bring a sense of perspective, different contexts and rationality into the discussion on COVID-19 to dispel fear. As of 15 February, we have 1527 number of deaths in the last three months arising from 67,000 infections (99 % from China). These numbers are certain to rise to tens and maybe hundreds of thousands of deaths and millions of infections. So when you hear about more deaths, you should not be alarmed. This is how pandemics work. For me, the increase in numbers were not particularly alarming, as they look like arithmetic progressions rather than geometric progressions. So we do not have to be paralysed by fear of these statistics. We can be rational, objective and calm in our our response because 1. In 2009, the H1N1 swine flu which emanated in USA caused 360,000 deaths (range 150,000 -575,000) in the first year – CDC/Lancet. And 762 million infections in the first year. (Science Alert). The fatality rate was 0.1 %. Were you panicking then? 2. Do you know according CDC (Center of Disease Control – USA) about 40,000 people die from seasonal flus worldwide monthly? Do you worry about dying from seasonal flus? 3. Do you know that according to WHO (World Health Organisation, a United Nations organization) on a worldwide basis, • 65,000 die from HIV monthly • 112,000 die from car accidents monthly • 130,000 die from diabetes monthly, and an additional 185,000 die from high blood glucose monthly • 250,000 die from alcoholism monthly • 600,000 die from smoking monthly • 1.5 m from heart disease monthly Also, according to John Hopkins University, 20,000 die monthly from from Iatrogenic causes (medical errors) in USA alone! Don’t you think you should worry more about the above causes of death, which are more threatening to you than COVID-19 and which you have a better control of? Don’t you think it’s better and more productive to lose weight, have a balanced diet, exercise, drive safely, sleep well and do not imbibe too much alcohol than to worry about COVID-19 inappropriately? But of course, I am not asking you to be reckless. I ask you to be responsible and do your part! See the MOH website. https://www.moh.gov.sg/images/librariesprovider5/default-album/moh5m_english.tmb-medium.jpg?sfvrsn=762d32d8_1 https://www.moh.gov.sg/images/librariesprovider5/wuhan-coronavirus/eng-jpg.tmb-medium.jpg?sfvrsn=396258d8_1 4. Current estimates of fatality rate of CPVID-19 is 1.5% to 2.5% but some scientists believe that eventually this rate will come closer to the swine flu of 0.1%. And PM Lee Hsien Loong implied that as well. Discovery of vaccines will of course reduce the rate to close to zero. And preliminary data suggest those who die are of vulnerable groups – those who are older and those who are already sick. For comparison, mortality rates of Singaporeans Age 50-54 0.376% Age 55-59 0.619% Age 60-64 1.318% This mean if you are infected with nCOV-19, your chance of dying from it is quite close to a Singaporean person age 63 dying at the age of 63 of all causes. Does a 63-year-old man going around worrying he will die that year? Please understand this. You have to get infected first. Your probability to get infected is very very low, and you can reduce this further. I will write in a separate posting on how you can reduce the rate of infection. Lastly, if you do get infected, I can recommend things you can do to strengthen your immune system. Sleep and intermittent fasting. And, l will write on this separately later as well! One of the philosophers I admire is Bertrand Russell. He said “Fear is the main source of superstition... Toj conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.” If you agree with my sentiments, please share my posting.

  14. Many considerate developers provide sound proofing baffle boards at each of the balcony to help further reduce Decibels of sound. Hope that MCL provides these for road facing units. They should. Actually it does help! Extract from one of my past forum posts... Do check if something similar to above is provided for you? Or several owners write in to get MCL to provide this as a goodwill gesture. Recently PARC Riveria, The Clementi Canopy and even units facing MRT tracks at The Visionaire..were provided with this...
  15. Generally, the road noise on the 16th floor is tolerable. However, I have greater concerns regarding the 4th to 8th storeys. The construction of Parc Esta is exceptionally neat, systematic, and orderly. Most importantly, I pass by there every other week for marketing or the Marine Terrace Market. The various blocks are rising at an astonishing pace. I previously owned an MCL unit 20 years ago. The quality was good. The only downside was the lack of choice, as I had to exit after 99 years. In fact, the recent PARC Riveria is quite minimalist, which is beneficial for long-term financial planning. Once a unit reaches 13 years or more, the concealed water heater and air conditioning tend to fail. LOL. The sinking fund for repairs and maintenance can become expensive, with costs for repainting every five years, necessitating increased contributions to the sinking fund.

  18. This should not pose a problem. At the Eunos market and food centre, there exists a Malay food stall. It coincidentally shares the same name as the mosque: Darul Aman. This name translates to Peaceful House. The situation was different in the 1960s and 1970s. During certain times of the day, religious music is played loudly over a considerable distance. If you had purchased your unit back then, you would have literally faced the music at least four times a day, which is quite amusing.
