First Time Open Door Procedure for new or re-sale home
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Around Singapore
Question on Move-in custom:-- Hi Master Lee, good morning. I'm moving in tomorrow. May I ask: I'm referring to the handbook u shared: 1. if i not bringing a charcoal stove, a piece of charcoal wrap in red paper ok as well? Do i need to keep this piece of charcoal in the house? 2. the items such as pineapple, fa gao etc, after bring in house, put at stove? When can discard if not eating? 3. if i following religious procedures from parents to burn the gold paper, these praying items to put in house before move in? As in don't bring when move in? Reply:- 1. if not bring. then no need piece of charcoal. But make sure that tomorrow the actual kitchen stove must be used. Can be boil water or cook something 2. Pineapple can anytime consume. Such as keep in the fridge and makan anytime. Fa Gao if it is new and edible, each family member just get a small bite. and can throw away. but if it does not look appertising then two or three days later throw, throw 3. Can do so. But becareful of smoke detectors around. Such things based on common sense as no bible or procedures for these -
You wrote: Does that mean that we should avoid stack 40, 41, 48, 49 (given their proximity to the central rubbish chute) if we are looking to purchase a 2 bedroom premium? 1. If one has the time, can read some of the information, here:- 1.1 For example: "Bcos my old hse is near rubbish chute i didn't notice. 1st timer dunno blur blur. I had a hard time selling n sold it 20k cheaper than my neighbor....." Although this belongs to a HDB upgrader, even near not next to also can affect re-sale value.. 1.2 In the link provided above, I have outlined additional reasons for the absence of a unit's main entrance door adjacent to a rubbish bin chute in the lobby. 2. In the future, some buyers themselves and/or even potential buyers (PB) may request to bypass such a unit or entire stacks with this layout plan, especially if they consult a Feng Shui master. 3. You have the right to request your respective ERA representative to obtain the block plan that includes the lifts and rubbish bin(s). If not satisfied, consider requesting a different ERA representative. Typically, the ERA representative will comply, as it represents a potential loss of commission for them. 4. I distinctly recall a client who was on the verge of booking a premium unit at La Fiesta! After I advised him to investigate, he discovered that the common rubbish bin was indeed next to the unit! He successfully booked an alternative unit, as it was still at the Option to Purchase stage and he was about to submit a cheque for the unit. 5. At PARC Esta, one of my clients expressed interest in purchasing larger units, which were not impacted by the rubbish bin(s). He did not investigate the precise location of these bins, as they were grouped near the central core area within the lift area. 5.1. Therefore, I recommend checking stacks 40, 41, 48, and 49. Ideally, the units should not be adjacent to or facing the bins. However, if they are, it would be prudent to reconsider. A disadvantage of Tower Blocks or Point Blocks with common rubbish bin(s):- And Yes! There are no corners to begin with...

Hi master I am changing my tv console backing in the living room glass panel is it ok? Currently is just normal laminate ChangingFrom laminate material to glass panel Reply: Frankly this has more do to with common sense. For example, most people use 1st choice = matt finished laminates. Even if the laminate is glossly, it is not as reflective as glass surface. Thus if you have strong or spot lights, the lights may bounce from the glass panel (depending) on the rays of the light. Up to you. But suddenly, need to wear polarised spectacles.. to block from the glare, then... don't ask why Another common sense factor is that: should the TV be mounted on the wall or glass panel, how to drill holes. Or even if can drill holes, in the future change TV set. How to drill holes into glass. For example, Sony TV uses it own proprietory mounting piece. They don't know how to drill into glass to mount it.

THIS IS A MODERN COMMERCIAL NOVELTY (akin to FAKE News) CAUGHT ON BY SEVERAL LOCAL BANKS MARKETING DEPT., TODAY! LOL! Li Chun on 4 February 2019: Best times to deposit money if you want to ‘Prosper’ in 2019? FAQ: Must I visit the bank or can I do a transfer from one bank account to another? Reply: As this is Fake News, it does not matter! If one has nothing better to do; then please go queue at the bank lah! Furthermore, no logic to transfer from an account (withdrawal) = isn't this considered inauspicious, first?

The view from the main entrance door allows me to peer into the inner workings of the kitchen. Master Lee, frost up or white roller blind (outside on wall or inside kitchen) is good? The idea is to mask the lower half of the kitchen so that the internal organs will not be seen from the main entrance door:- Can also be fully covered.

Ascent @ 456 at Balestier Road by Quest Homes Pte Ltd (Freehold)
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Around Singapore
In 1966, the site where today's Ascent @ 456 Balestier Road is just a road away from Shan Road where part of Tan Tock Seng Hospital was:- Today, there are a row of shop houses including Balestier Hotel acting as a buffer with Ren Ci Nurshing Home. While Tan Tock Seng Hospital is now further away approximately around 550 metres away at Ascent @ 456's 7 O'clock position:-- Otherwise, not much has changed. -
I am trying to add some resource on the newer project: Ascent @ 456 given that it is relatively new development. As for Wilkie 80 which TOP around the year 2000, this is not a new project thus not within the terms of reference of this topic " Want a NEW condo reviewed". It is not new. It is an old project. Also in the early years few if any resources were uploaded to the internet.

Ascent @ 456 at Balestier Road by Quest Homes Pte Ltd (Freehold)
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Around Singapore
Part 2: If part of the master bed faces the master toilet door is this also considered as "the coffin position?" Type A1 & A1a:- 1. There are two differences in opinion, here: 1.1. VIEW-POINT A:- A: Some Feng Shui Master (FSM) would automatically say that whenever a bed faces ANY DOOR, this is considered inauspicious. Some quote this "the coffin position" thing. While others don't know the actual story. As they were told that this is inauspicious. To this category of FSMs, a taboo is a taboo even they don't want to take an effort to understand why. 1.2. VIEW-POINT B:- B: Personally, it is my nature to first try see if there is any association with Common sense or not? 2. I found two considerations:- 1st consideration = Coffin position valid? 2.1 There is some logic in legs facing a bedroom door. As under symbolism, the bedroom door can lead towards the main entrance door and out of the home. 2.2. But if the partner's legs face the toilet door; one is "brought" into the toilet and usually even if a toilet has two doors, the two doors does not lead DIRECTLY towards the main entrance door. Here, one still needs to back-track into the bedroom and then brought out towards the bedroom door. 2nd consideration = Common sense? 2.4. Here, whenever we flush the toilet; water would be forced into the toilet bowl chamber and the air within this chamber would be forced out of it. Here the air may be forced linear out of the gap of the toilet bowl seat. Since the toilet bowl directly faces the bedroom door then towards the bed; this is less than ideal. Simply close the toilet door is acceptable remedy. 2.3. This is based on science. Here, if the lid of the toilet bowl is in the closed position, usually there is still a small gap where the there is always those rubber studs that is between the plastic seat on the toilet bowl that cushions it from the ceramic material of the toilet bowl. 2.4. For the above, reason, it has nothing to do with "the coffin position" but based on common sense. 2.5. Fortunately, the above illustration is an exaggeration given that the "spray" in misty red should not be too strong a force to reach the bed. -
Part 1: Ascent @ 456 & Symbolism in Feng Shui = "The Coffin Position" 1. What is "the coffin position"? 1.1. It is where as shown, here; part of the bed face the bedroom door. And in this illustration, chances that one of the partner's legs face the bedroom door:- 2. How did this come about? 2.1. In the past and even today, when funerals are carried out in a landed home, when a family member died; the physical body in a casket is brought into the home "head first". 2.2. And when it is time to sent the decease for burial or cremation; LEGS FIRST! out of the main door/main gate of a home. 3. Thus this is how the term "Coffin position" came about. Where one should not sleep with the legs facing a bedroom door.

Color of roof tiles and exterior wall colours
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Feng Shui Tips & Guidelines
Nearly all colours except Grey. The standard clay tiles is good or the maroon colour tiles. If other materials, also avoid greying tone. Grey goes with white exterior. -
Frankly all these are commercial products sold in the name of Feng Shui. To feel better, can simply wrap in a newspaper and bag them. Thus to some: there is no trace of “guilt”. If me, I simply skip the newspaper bit and bag them in supermarket plastic bags or any other paper bags also can and throw them into the bin. I am really happy to hear of this. You made my day! Cheers!

HDB West Plains @Bukit Batok BTO launched in February 2016
Cecil Lee replied to toeatandlive's topic in General Help
Case Study 4: HDB West Plains does not live in isolation from it's nearest neighbour which is separated by a road away = Le Quest Please refer to the attached street map:-- 1. In my opinion, thanks to the Multi-store car park (MSCP) Block 463 at HDB West Plains, limited "contact" between blocks in HDB West Plains and Le Quest. Other than what is shown above. 2. Blue and pink arrrows are not an issue since the threat is to the side of each other's wall. The only threat is in RED from Le Quest as shown in the red arrow. 3. If one notice, Both X and Y are parallel to each other. Thus there are no threat from X to Y and vice-versa. Other than both Blocks face each other thus at West Plains, views at "Y" is been blocked. Same also for South facing stacks of Blk 463B at West Plaiins and South-East facing stacks at Blk 464A. 4. This is part and parcel of "life" in SGP. -
