Marine Blue Twin  Towers Under Construction 

Previously before Marine Parade Road (MPR)  got diverted, there is a comfortable distance between MPR and the service road as well as the main gate / and actual block frontage of Marine Blue:

Today, it does not look anything like the above. MRP is just a few yards away from the service road leading towards Marine Blue's main gate.

Photos take on 26 April 17... TOP soon...

And the temporary closure of Joo Chiat road for one year for the MRT station 

Site plan

Along Parkway Parade side, currently Marine Parade Road has been diverted (hopefully not permanently) to just a few yards away from the service road leading into the main entrance of Marine Blue.

Today, Marine Parade Road (dual-carriage way) original highlighted in YELLOW has moved (not sure if it is permanent or not?) To the red line which I had drawn below:-

Thus Marine Parade Road (now) is closer to the main entrance side of Marine Blue.

If the diversion is permanent, I give two stars for Location x 3. But if the Marine Parade Road has been re-diverted back to it's original location, then I give an additional 3rd star. Making Location x 3 = 3 stars, instead.

 

 

Today, I was at the passenger sit while Robert drive.

The background is Marine Blue.

Marine Parade Road is today because of the road diversion is so close to the main entrance of Marine Blue.

The Black car and yellow cab is on the service road. While our vehicle is along the Marine Parade Road heading towards Still Road.

For now, the bus stop is just 20metres from the frontage of Marine Blue.

Hope one understands now why I gave Location x 3 a poor score.

This poor score is based on Feng Shui. Not based on how near it is to facilities like Marine Parade Central or that of Parkway Parade etc..

The truth about annual Feng Shui products: what’s sold as tradition has become a highly profitable buying trap.

What many people don’t realize: annual Feng Shui products are less about balance and more about selling fear. Annual Feng Shui products aren’t guidance they’re a carefully engineered sales cycle. Let’s call it what it is: the annual Feng Shui buying cycle has become a commercialized scam.

Understanding the Commercial Side of Modern Feng Shui

• Feng Shui Without Forced Buying: What Clients Are Rarely Told

Many Feng Shui shops deliberately push customers to buy new items year after year, making it seem like these purchases are unavoidable. The bigger the family, the more objects we’re told we need, filling our homes with products we never truly needed in the first place.

Over time, this becomes a repeating cycle—almost like an addiction—where people feel they have to make an annual pilgrimage to these so‑called Feng Shui masters. Fear, superstition, and guilt are quietly used to pressure people into buying again and again. In the end, the real purpose becomes clear: generating super‑normal profits for the sellers, while ordinary people unknowingly become their victims.

Recognizing this pattern is the first step toward breaking free from it.

Behind the friendly advice lies a clear motive: to push customers into buying as many products as possible—one for each of the nine sectors of their home. This isn’t guidance; it’s systematic upselling disguised as tradition.

If we want this cycle to end, it starts with us. Please spread the word: when people stop buying out of fear, the selling stops too.
