Dear Wasis,
When I have the time, I will take pictures of some examples.
Do take note that when I mentioned basin (apologies) it is not literally a basin but:-
1. The area is a natural area which is slightly lower than the roads or main roads leading to it.
2. Sometimes, the main roads have been `raised' a few metres higher. Or due to it's natural profile, roads or main roads are built on these higher ground. And houses within it is acessible at a lower level.
3. In some instances, yes, without proper irrigation and when there is an exceptionally high tide, places like " Opera estate " did e.g. once in 20 years had flooding problem. In recent years, the government had built some `automatic' flood gates close to the river mouth and increased the drainage system.
4. Another good example, for those who stay in Singapore is the stretch of Upper Bukit Timah road area.
5. I remembered many many years back, where the University of Singapore, was located at Upper Bukit Timah road. Whenever it rains, flood occurs e.g. something like once or twice a year. Thru the efforts of the government in the late 1970's, the drainage was deepen and overall, today, there is no longer any more flooding.
6. The rationale for the lower land is it is slightly more yin. And in such situations, is a conducive environment for insects such as the highly prized crickets & grasshoppers. These makes the land exceptionally good environment. This area, Bukit Timah is a choice site and has good Feng Shui.
7. But as you have correctly mentioned, without proper drainage, it does not matter. Contrast this to countries that make lots of effort, money and commitment. This is where their fruits of labour counts.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil

User's Comments Apart from learning the traditional method of this system, they have also taught me about compassion and humility. These qualities are extremely important in my opinion as we are dealing with people's lives when we delve deeply into their Four Pillars Chart and try assist as much as possible. Over the years, nothing has been too much of a problem for them in helping me attain the success I now experience. How I wish they were in down town Perth, Western Australia. I sincerely hope you Singaporeans understand just how very very fortunate you are to have them "on tap". I am originally from Singapore many years ago and I have an excellent understanding of the culture and lifestyle of the Island. Out of interest, I "monitor" a few Feng Shui "Lists" coming out of Singapore and to say that there is amazing nonsense being proliferated is putting it very mildly indeed. I feel so very sorry for those being "sucked in". So guys, we are a very lucky bunch of folk to be under the umbrella of Cecil and Robert Lee. I have no doubt reading all the posts that come thru Geomancy Net that you all do appreciate their efforts. Sincerely Glyn Hezakiah |
