Moved by the appalling living conditions of vision was for them to be home owners. the time, he resolved to provide affordable and quality homes for all Singaporeans. Even as Singaporeans were being re-housed in better homes, Mr Lee's Key policies he introduced to keep flats within the means of families, continue to undergird the approach today.

Source & Credit: The old Singapore HDB estates, primarily constructed during the 1960s and 1970s, reflect the country's early efforts in public housing development, showcasing a significant period in Singapore's urban planning history. These estates serve as a testament to the evolution of housing solutions in response to the growing population and urbanization challenges of that era.

Distinctive Curved Staircase - can be found on older Singapore $2/- notes Toa Payoh Central Today, Chung Khaw Bank Ltd no more = was taken over and merged to form United Overseas Bank Ltd Distinctive Point-Block HDB flats where each flat is a corner unit with minimal sharing of neighbouring walls!

Similar can be found at Kembangang Marine Parade Laguna Park & Laguna View, 1978 Beside the East Coast Lagoon Night soil (sewerage waste) carrier Historically, numerous residences or establishments lacked an indoor sewage system for the disposal of waste. As a result, there exists a cavity situated directly beneath the squatting toilet, featuring an opening that permits the disposal of human waste into one of these oval containers. When the bins are full and ready for collection, individuals [e.g. shown in the photo] would extract these tin-lined waste containers and secure a lid over them in preparation for transport to a truck equipped with multiple compartments for waste disposal.

Based on the limited information, can only apply what is simply COMMON SENSE FENG SHUI Simply, when one enters a bedroom, more or less one can already envisage where the bed could be placed. Encountered this before? Visually, seen the bedroom door, the windows, the wardrope location and for the master bedroom the attached bathroom door. "Worse still if one has to place a King or Queen sized bed! LOL 1. Based only on general Feng Shui, and given that you may be using a Queen sized bed (width is 5 feet) and King sized bed is 6 feet, there is very limited location where the bed-head can be placed. 1.1. This is the best that you can apply or try to fit the bed to the room bearing in mind that there are windows, openings e.g. bedroom door and cabinet accessibility. 1.2. The above cannot be really considered as "Perfect Placement" since there are THREE (3) SCIENCE OF FENG SHUI WHICH ARE UNFORTUANTELY MISSING LINKS TO THE ABOVE. Want to really know what is "PERFECT PLACEMENT?" 2. When it comes to proper Feng Shui: 2.1 Step 1: a chart, sample is attached is prepared: 2.2. Step 2: Bedroom is reviewed based on several criteria: 2.2.1. Optimal Bed-head direction is looked at based the person's best bed-head direction: APPLYING EIGHT HOUSE CONCEPT 0R 4 GOOD/BAD with 2.2.2. In this illustration one will notice the Master Bedroom windows are located or influenced by the East sector. (Based on Eight House / 4 Good- 4 Bed directions) 2.2.3. The qi or energy coming into the Master bedroom favours Mrs = her "Health". While for Mr is his "Spook". 2.2.4. Thus there is no accident why Mrs is suppose to sleep closer to the Master windows. Where Mrs acts more like a knight in shiny armour shielding Mr who sleeps closer to the wardrope / toilet. 2.3. Step 3: Applying Flying Star Feng Shui - which today found that East sector is now the Career and Overall luck/ (Already started in 2021 till 2043). Here, Flying Star can also provide a guide whether Master Bedroom is a good or bad sector. As in this case, today, it is a good sector. APPLYING FLYING STAR FENG SHUI 2.4. Step 4: Applying Ba Zi Feng Shui with Flying Star to determine the best colours for e.g. East Master Bedroom:- APPLYING BA ZI FENG SHUI Based on this.... 3. Without the above, THREE (3) concepts it is as good as go with your feel. 3.1. Unfortunately, without the Science of Feng Shui: a. Eight House / 4 Good-Bad b. Flying Star Feng Shui c. Ba Zi Feng Shui 3.2. Can only reply on general Shapes and Forms. Might as well, frankly, get hold of a COIN and do this:- + APPLYING COMMON SENSE OR COW SENSE FENG SHUI, HERE Actung! Caution The Science of Feng Shui is the missing link.

Part 3: Teochew Mee Pok Stalls all over Singapore
Cecil Lee replied to Cecil Lee's topic in Current Affairs & Lifestyle
Very unusual stall name. Botak in Malay means bald head. Hopefully won’t get bald after eating food from this stall. LOL Like this one. The gravy or sauce is light and nice. Leaves no weird or strange after taste unlike from some other stalls. $4.50 minced meat and meat balls version. Add $1.20 for three wantons. (As they also sell wanton noodles). -
