Cecil, i am helping a client dispose a very nice standing Guanyin statue, together with all his furnitures. Is there anything i need to note for disposing Guanyin statue?

Location: 104 Jurong East (approximately 1 km away from Jurong East NRT Unfortunately, unless one happens to visit the estate... But .. please don’t visit their toilet?

Chee Cheong Fun although is a common breakfast food. But in my opinion, this stall stands out especially their chilli sauce with the smooth texture of their plain rice noodles.

Both Bellewoods clubhouse and Bellewaters ECs have similar child or kid friendly toilets: with a kid WC + sink. Although this is quite common in many shopping Centres, it is often never given any priority in most condos or ECs

Avoid child’s hand getting pinched! Seen this installed at a client’s new hom several years ago. By installing a flexible sheet of clear vinyl or cream colour… etc…

Sign says Closed until further notice... What do you think this means? Hmmm It has been around Katong for at least 50 + years or more!

This year, some cash-in on Chinese Zodiac signs engraved on individual hulus or bottle gourd...

Chong Pang : Soon Lee Heng (stall name) Chinese style Satay stall. I happen to walk past the first satay stall at Block 2 Changi Village and ordered their chicken satay. Pleasantly surprised to find how moist, chewy the chunks of meat were. Later realised that they have 4 or 5 photos of our current PM and his wife having satay at this same stall. Looks like there are two Chinese satay stalls and wow! Like 4 more Malay versions of satay (stalls), here!

Cockles are now so small In the past medium sized cockles were the best. Eaten with chillies and garlic.. And a source of cheap protein for the poor. Hepatis was unheard; then.

Had an hour and a half to spare before next appointment Mentai Ya, Level 1, Beauty World Center $5/- Latte

coincidence or conspiracy? The new U.S. $20 dollar bill contains hidden pictures of the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks! Yes! see for yourself...

Although the attached layout plans are very common for Singapore government board flats (HDB); When I first received a copy of one of them; at first glance, I thought they were the same! While, they are not exactly the same identical layout plan; as there are slight differences especially the entrance to the kitchen; but, overall, they are very similar in many ways! Can you see the differences? There are some who are concerned with the kitchen entrance visible to the main entrance door of the Bukit Panjang unit. By the way; both blocks/units TOP at thes ame time: one is in Bukit Panjang and the other at Ang Mo Kio.

Singapore's standard colour for a fire hydrant is RED. However, in West Malaysia, Johor Bahru; the fire hydrant is YELLOW in colour. Which is adopted by many other countries...

The Singapore local version has a dull light to dark brown colour. Part of the sparrow species. Once captured will usually bite it’s tongue. Thus will never ever see them in captivity. Often goes in a pair. In many other countries, they can be in yellow, bluish etc... Hokkiens called it: “ceck Kar Chiao” which literally means rice bird.

If the WC sewerage drain pipe is not properly capped, this can occur. As often the contractor merely places a plastic membrane sheet and covered by a tile. Once the “u-trap” no longer hold liquid, by osmosis, the sewer smell may slowly seep out of this tile. Thus causing the stench. The disadvantage of capping is the floor may have to be raised to accommodate this plug.
