St Forum Clear walkways of obstructions in case of fire THE double tragedy that occurred due to the fire breakout in Hougang Avenue 8 was totally unnecessary, if not for errant shopkeepers obstructing the walkways. It set me wondering: Did the authorities do enough to ensure these shopkeepers abide by the rules? Despite several warnings and fines, the walkways were still blocked. Could the authorities have done more - say, not allowing them to open their shop until the situation was rectified? Besides these errant shopkeepers, what about irresponsible residents who have numerous plants in the walkway, clothes and shoe racks, and often shoes strewn across the slightly more than 2m-wide walkway? I think the HDB and town councils should intensify their checks to include common corridors of flats on every level of the building. They should issue a stern warning to residents who insist on having potted plants on huge racks, clothes and shoe racks in the common walkway and shoes strewn across the common corridor (which is also the common walkway to stairwells). In time of emergency such as a fire, these bulky items blocking the path could become a hazard, causing people fleeing to trip and fall. One positive example is the National Environment Agency which is doing a good job by stepping up its checks in a bid to bring down the number of dengue cases in Singapore.

have you tried turning the tap(meter) outside your house to full? learned this from pohjoo's staff. if still the same, guess you need to change the shower head to those with a shallow/"thin reservoir" type. shallow/thin thick - requires more water pressure.

for that you need to remove the old silicon and apply new layer of ANTI-MOULD silicon. cos the mould(black thingy) is inside the silicon, no way you can clean it.

cant - unless your washing machine is beside your toilet bowl. use pail to collect, then use it to flush all your toiletbowls + wash your corridor + wash balcony + rubbish chute(if any).

bulbs dont explode. I have 2x halogen + 4x philips 5w energy savings bulbs switched on 24x7 and my pub bills are always below $70.00. the only way to make a dark place to look bright is a light bulb, only conmen will tell you to hang whatever ornaments to make the dark place "look bright".

two floorplan are different??? 2nd one looks a lot better than the 1st pic.

just fix a energy saving lightbulb 24x7 to the area. get your contractor to do it, should be less than $100. 7ft or 8ft is for those who puts a altar facing maindoor. since you free thinker , then these measurements doesnt count. fs ruler is more for doors,altar table or house structure(if you rich enough to build one).

1) keeping house SPANKING CLEAN is already good fengshui. 2) what to put at cai wei depends on different fsm(1) and location of cai wei(2). what i learned - no water feature. water feature is used only to "PULL" good qi in.
