Dear Ben,

1. Further to what I had mentioned earlier, this house, which is in a good estate has `more elaborate' counter-actions against it being the corner house.

2. The Two Ba Gua mirrors is considered "minimal" by this owner's corner house at Meyer Road, Singapore.

3. Here is a top-view and picture of the house:-

4. The owner of this house further added high brick walls to his corner house:-

5. The above is not the end of it. In this picture, one can see a close-up of a symbolic old lamp (to provide light) to the house.

The owner does not light it up but by installing it along the wall, it symbollical means to brighten up the wall area:-

6. This slide shows the main door is away from the corner of the traffic light:-

7. In addition of the high walls; lighting; you will notice a warrior with two tall pillars of lions guarding with him the corner of the house:-

8. In addition to the above, you will notice bushes providing double protection to the brick wall. And there are actually more but not shown clearly i.e. you can see a Ba Gua roof behind or next to the warrior on the right of the picture. The owner also has some other brass figurines.

9. Thus, one can imagine, in Singapore, these are some of the examples or extend that a homeowner would go thru to `protect' or `triple-protect' their homes!

Therefore, it makes the two ba gua mirror you mentioned for the house - minimal as compared to such an elaborate work done.

10. The brick wall is in away also commonsense approach. Especially if it is there to `protect' the house in case, there are accidents along the busy intersection.

11. And should a vehicle veer into the house, at least, the brickwall would offer the first level of protection.

12. Ben, once again many thanks for sharing with us i.e. especially the effort to take the photos.

13. Yes, in some homes, where thre is a corner house and the `frontage of the corner' here is long or exposed, some may place Ba Gua mirrors.

But frankly, no matter how many mirrors one placed: there is always a higher risks of accidents happening at road junctions. And cars, vans / lorries may go out of control.

It is therefore, more prudent to have a solid wall. Or if there are frequent accidents, the government authorites should consider `highway' type of barriers to protect the home. This is a better, than to trust it to Ba Gua mirrors to halt the advance of a run-away vehicle.

*JOKE* maybe, the owner should see the movie SPEED and SPEED 1. To get a sense of moving objects cannot be stopped by a `mirror'.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
