MERMAID, dont side track leh. Are you Tai Chi master?

After all the BIG TALK about superior Bishan and Sky Vue, and saying price of JG has already factor in ALL future potential of JLD.

Am I right to say that you are betting Sky Vue in Bishan will achieve higher capital gain and rental yield as compare to J gateway when both project TOP in about 3 to 4 years time.

Yes or No?

let me share wif u a lunch time tale since u r so free & no one entertain u.

In the gungfu show tat I enjoy watching, there will always be a swordsman who practices 邪魔歪术 and ended up 走后入魔。

Due to the havoc tat he created in the 武林,a supreme master decided to 废了他的武功。Then he will go around asking ppl, seeking confirmation again & again:

我到底是不是天下第一?:D

When ppl reply him 你已经是个废人了。

He does not believe & roared:
我才是天下第一!
你们一定是妒忌我才这么说的!

The premium for MM vs. bigger units is large and getting larger. This is developer way of extracting maximum value out of properties investors due to the cooling measures etc. It has never reduced and has been increasing since MM is introduced. This premium will be the first and fastest to correct in a downturn. I recall reading a US article (manhattan) that small units are very hard to sell during a downturn. During a downturn, it might be wise to pick up a couple of MMs since the premium will grow again during an upturn. I strongly believe the 7% ABSD for Singaporeans are temporary. I will wait at least for this cooling measure to be removed before investing.

AKA - never give a sucker an even break.

What you say shows that you understand this outrageous Rip-People-Off, Rob-The-Poor premium very well.

Trust me, when its time to sell the MMs, prices people willing to pay will fall back to the normal range.

Just because one unit is 488 sqft and the other is 988 sqft, and both side by side, you cannot expect the 488sqft resale buyer to pay $1,6xx psf when his neighbor 988 sqft paid only $1,3xx psf.

This can only happen in primary launch because buyers are price takers. And developers try to rip these eager investors off - right into their bones!

It is not my intention to try to convince u tat JLD prices muz be the same wif other OCR prices.

I am saying ... J gateway prices is very high cos it has alrdy factored in all the potential of JLD.



since you say J Gateway prices already factored in ALL the potential of JLD, so are you saying that Sky Vue will have better potential for capital appreciation and rental yield upon TOP?

Rental is a function of price. For sure SV will command higher capital gain vs J Gateway based on purchase of $13xx psf and $16xx psf! :p

please give Mermaid a break lah. you still want to make fun of him with this kind of childish joke.

Anyway, while you are at it, are you certain the Sky Vue will achieve higher capital gain and rental yield when both project TOP in 3 to 4 years time.

Latest transaction for 5-room bishan hdb is $8xxk n highest recent transaction for jurong east is only $6xxk for similar sized unit. The gap between hdb n condo is not as huge as jgateway n surrounding hdb. Higher hdb prices in bishan opens the possibility of hdb upgraders gaining entry into the pc mkt in bishan , but if u look at jgateway pricing n the way hdb prices are moving in that area , just think to yourself how many hdb upgraders there will pay a million bucks for your tiny little space that they can hardly call a home, n to think that it is not even classified as luxury :doh:

Agreed. Low quantum is not a sustainable reason for higher psf per se. Especially, during resale. Also, there are more 1BR than 3BR units for such projects. Normally, we pay premium for rare units, not the other way round. I respect the market forces for today MM's premium pricing. It does seems too large for me now. Perhaps, the market is right. More observation required.

There are some intracacies in the caveats lodging process.

You may want to consider checking out with your lawyer next time about this. The $1,3xx psf unit is probably transacted sometimes back.

well, the psf (during launch) was ranging between 1100-1200. i registered interest, got my cheque ready, went down early on launch day and every unit, except some PHs, was snapped up by VVIPs on priority list.

Bishan/Thomson selling at $1,4xx-$1,5xx, those who paid $1,6xx-$1,7xx for Jurong MM overpaid BIG TIME!

One of the favorite argument is also big units vs small units. In any normal development, big small units price variances typically DO NOT exceed 15%. But for some Jurong MM, developers whack the MM buyers BIG TIME!

People should go more showflats (I always persuade serious investors to go showflat and learn). Check out all the pricelist of SV, Thomson Three, One Balmoral, and whatever launching now la, QBay, SkyWoods, etc etc. Understand the pricing between 5th floor 1,2,3 BR and see the price variances. Understand floor premium and how developer price per floor. I better say exclude ground floor and penthouses, their pricing got other formula which I dont feel like sharing here with one or two ungrateful people... other readers keen to know can PM me. I very willing to share.

Per floor pricing can only be different if say in East Coast, Meyerise, or Aalto, say above 12th floor then got decent seaview, etc.

Ceteris Peribus, 4 years later, price increase in Bishan will be much better than the Jurong MM at $1,6xx-$17xx. Reason ? Because people buy cheaper la! Why people buy cheaper ?

Then back to the basic property investment principle which that one or two person cannot understand lor! That Newton is more expensive than Novena than Balestier. Jurong will be cheaper than Clementi, than Bouna Vista, then Queenstown, than Redhill.

Ok la! Enough of FOC education for those who visit too few showflats.

Is SV really cheaper? I was at the SV showroom and the lowest quantum MM still available now is on the 26th floor and around $17xx psf. Based on URA caveats for J-gateway, those MM sold between 26-30 Floor also around $17xx. Since MM mostly for investment, and hypothetically assuming there is a 26th floor MM unit available at JG now at $17xx also and only just between JG and SV, which is a better buy for investment?

stop listening to all that BS from DKSG lah.

In July 2013 after the JG launch, he claim that Jurong PC owners are going to take profit and "upgrade" to property closer to city as a result property price from Jurong to Orchard will rise.

Fast forward 3 months, SV was launch 10-15% LOWER than Sky Habitat, and URA Q3 (Jul to Sep) estimate reflect a decline in CCR and RCR prices.

And now he still got the cheek to say that $1600 bishan good buy. Kovan $1500 also good buy. Dont he know that FH RV condo are also selling at $14xxpsf.

Isnt it obvious that snake oil seller will always say that his snake is the more venomous and his medicine is the most effective.

Anyway, dont waste time reading what he has to say because what he say is meant to feed the headless troll who will agree and choke on what he says.

Dont believe ask his bootlicking Mermaid loh. Talk so much about how great is Bishan and Sky Vue, when ask as simple question if he is committed that SV will achieve higher capital gain and rental yield than J Gateway upon TOP, he started degenerate into cheap talking and act blur.

From the sound of it, and the fact that the SV unit is still unsold, it seems $17xx for high floor SV MM is overpaying too. But no doubt someone will eventually buy up this unit also. In this case, isn't the one who bought JG MM at $14xx (low floor) better off than the one who bought SV at $17xx (high floor)? If so, aren't we just talking about what psf and quantum is still good for investment in general, rather than jurong bad and bishan good or vice versa?

there is no debate here. just plain big talk by trolls trying to talk down Jurong region property.

Or else you would have confidently said that I MERMAID is confident that SV will achieve higher capital gain and rental yield when both project TOP in 3 years time because Bishan is a superior location as compare to Jurong Lake District AND price of J Gateway has already priced in ALL future potential of JLD development.

But according to someone below, new launches are going to have REAL fire sales in 2016.

So, 3 years time in 2016, what's going to happen to J Gateway?



New launches might not be affected for NOW, but the tsunami will come in 3 years time when the full loans kicks in. Perhaps that will be the best time to pick up real firesale? in 2016?

If you want to reply my post, you should at least reply my question about how confident you are that Sky Vue will have better capital gain and rental yield potential over J-Gateway

And your objective in this thread should be debating about the growth potential of Jurong Lake Distict, not going around like a busybody asking if you are vested here or there or how much you are pay for it etc etc.

Honestly if you have nothing constructive to add to this thread, you should just keep quiet or start a thread to talk about other potential district which you think have good potential. I am sure "investor" like you should know more than just Jurong Lake District.

Aaarggghhh ! Just lost my reply to your post.
So I will summarise here rather than retype.

This is a multi tiered question.

MOST important point is :

If 20th floor Jurong MM sells for $1,6xx and 20th floor Bishan MM sells for $16xx, which you think represents a better price ?

Other points you may want to consider :

Point 1) - Floor premium and Developer pricing strategy. Check out other CapLand PCs like D'Leedon and Interlace (I think, coz its many years and many showflats ago), they use the same strategy. SO comparing between different development using the same theory that floor premium is the same is sometimes inaccurate.
Pt2 - showflat experience. Always have some reference floors in mind, Office Boy use 20th floor as reference. So that when you move from showflat to showflat, you have a good comparison in mind. You wont be comparing Jurong 5th floor with Bishan 25th floor and confuse yourself.

Some developers have a view of the market and is willing to take the risk and time the market (eg RV Suites by Allgreen), some will see off a certain percentage then keep the rest to time the market (eg Aalto). So you must more or less understand the developer's pricing strategy and see how we can profit from it.

Last time, we all know developers are very keen to sell the first 10-25% cheap, and once done, they will move the price up. Partly coz they need the seed capital to start building. Examples of these are Soilbuild (last time before they delist and relist again this year). Office Boy bought before those they move price up 5% the next week kind, coz they already hit the quantum they want and want to use the rest of the units to squeeze the market.

But now, pricing strategies changed, developers now are more eager to squeeze every ounce of blood out of buyers, thus they can price it such that floor premiums differ significantly! Last time such things wont fly.

Ok la! Enough said about pricing, wait people say Office Boy trying to act smart, not qualified to talk about pricing.

Remember the 4 pillars of property investment : Buy (which includes pricing), Hold (rental), Finance, Selling (which includes sell side pricing) ! Do well in these and you will certainly succeed !

of course for someone to like to flip flop, he will not want people to discuss what he had said in the past.

e.g. From jurong to orchard, prices will rise as result of J Gateway launch.
fast forward 3 months, RCR CCR, Bishan prices all drop.

Now KPKB saying is bishan sell low, jurong mm is overpriced.


after all that big talk, no trolls dares to say they are expecting Sky Vue to outperform J Gateway in terms of capital gain and rental yield. If they are no confident in what they are saying might as well keep quiet right?

The good thing about the SSD is that prices will be very sticky. Hardly anyone will sell unless he really has no choice within the first four years. He is also very likely to be able to afford to hold due to the TDSR rule. So, both JG/SV price will not move much for the next 4 years. Given that only the SV is sold post-TDSR, it is possible that some JG investors are not TDSR proof. Thus, JG will have more resales during a bad economic downturn.

Anyway, it will likely to be a stalemate during a stagnant secondary market. I.e., MM investors are stuck with their units and hardly any one who is vested can really sells in the near term. All the actions are now in the primary markets. So, there might be better and nicer projects (not cheaper, but greater value) coming out in the near future (e.g. DUO).

I'm not trying to promote any condos, but since I live in Bishan thomson area and travel to Jurong East and Boon Lay quite often, here's my thoughts:.

1). Air quality: The air quality in Bishan is generally very good as there are no heavy industries nearby and is surrounded by MacRitchie/Seletar Reservoir and Bishan Park. In my opinion, the air is as good as you can get other than the East Coast park.

In comparison, there are many times I smell chemicals and burnt plastic smell when I travel to Jurong. What you can smell is bad enough, what about the odorless chemicals?

2). Schools - no need elaborate.

3). Accessibility:

MRT - because Bishan is on circle line which cuts across all MRT lines, so you can travel to most places in Singapore as fast as a car and even faster than a car during peak hours. You can also go to JE via Buona Vista.

Roads - CTE, Lornie Road, Braddell Road, Thomson Road - by car you can reach anywhere in Singapore within 20 minutes outside the rush hours.

Bus - by bus, you can get to almost anywhere in Singapore, Tuas, Changi Point, Woodlands, etc, within 1.5hr.

4). Population: The population density in Bishan is low and is made up of 90% locals and maybe some Malaysian PR. Outside of Junction 8 PRC and South Asian citizens are rarely seen, accept those working in coffeeshops and foodcourt.

In comparison, the population and congestion over at Jurong East and especially Boon Lay is terrific. Certain parts of Jurong is like Little India or Chinatown. It is also very hazardous to drive in Jurong due to large number of FW riding bicycles without following traffic rules.

5). Future Development: Just like Jurong East, Bishan has a huge plot of undeveloped land around the MRT.

5). Future Development: Just like Jurong East, Bishan has a huge plot of undeveloped land around the MRT.

1) Have you factor in the air pollution of the 2 crematorium, which is just over 1km away from Bishan? From what I have read, when a body goes up in flame, it will release toxic gas.

2) There are definitely more schools and institution in the western region region. details is available here
http://forums.condosingapore.com/showthread.php?t=18201&page=192

3) As far as accessibility is concern, LTA has announced they are going to build 2 new MRT lines which will greatly help improve the connectivity of Jurong region, one is the Jurong region line, and the other is the cross region line, which will be completed in 2021-2025 and 2030.

As for road leading to bishan, you might want to know that the traffic on lornie road during peak hour can be extremely bad and this often caused jam all the way till PIE and Adams Road.

Having said that, blueprint behind the JLD masterplan is to create a self contain regional commercial center, hence people living and working in Singapore will not have to leave Jurong at all.

4) Jurong is an extremly big region, and if you look at the map, you will know that its many many time bigger than Bishan estate. Hence if you wish to compare to Jurong estate, then it might be better if you combine Bishan and AMK. OR else you could compare Bishan to Toh Guan area.

As from demographic profile, jurong region has got the largest concentration of middle age group in Singapore and perhaps also has one of the highest percentage of 5 rm hdb flats in Singapore. And it has also been reported that as a result of JLD, there is an increase number of higher income earner moving towards west. I am sure if you do a google search you should be able to find the report.

5) As far as future development, the 2 plot of land next to Bishan MRT, its zone for residential purpose, and the best you could hope for will be a mixed development of retail cum residential. This is something which we already have in Jurong for long time, ie. Jurong Point.

For JLD development, it is actually too big to list everything here and even URA has to create a MASTERPLAN for it.

My gut feeling is that the article ringo put up is all propaganda.

Of course the government has to create such "plans" for all districts which needs it. So that people who stay in these areas has some hope.

Key word is "some". But some developers over-cooked the "plans" and used it to rip innocent, low budget MM buyers off like vultures tearing off a desert trapped man!

It is indeed too tough to watch how the person fight for the final battle !

1) Have you factor in the air pollution of the 2 crematorium, which is just over 1km away from Bishan? From what I have read, when a body goes up in flame, it will release toxic gas.

2) There are definitely more schools and institution in the western region region. details is available here
http://forums.condosingapore.com/showthread.php?t=18201&page=192

3) As far as accessibility is concern, LTA has announced they are going to build 2 new MRT lines which will greatly help improve the connectivity of Jurong region, one is the Jurong region line, and the other is the cross region line, which will be completed in 2021-2025 and 2030.

As for road leading to bishan, you might want to know that the traffic on lornie road during peak hour can be extremely bad and this often caused jam all the way till PIE and Adams Road.

Having said that, blueprint behind the JLD masterplan is to create a self contain regional commercial center, hence people living and working in Singapore will not have to leave Jurong at all.

4) Jurong is an extremly big region, and if you look at the map, you will know that its many many time bigger than Bishan estate. Hence if you wish to compare to Jurong estate, then it might be better if you combine Bishan and AMK. OR else you could compare Bishan to Toh Guan area.

As from demographic profile, jurong region has got the largest concentration of middle age group in Singapore and perhaps also has one of the highest percentage of 5 rm hdb flats in Singapore. And it has also been reported that as a result of JLD, there is an increase number of higher income earner moving towards west. I am sure if you do a google search you should be able to find the report.

5) As far as future development, the 2 plot of land next to Bishan MRT, its zone for residential purpose, and the best you could hope for will be a mixed development of retail cum residential. This is something which we already have in Jurong for long time, ie. Jurong Point.

For JLD development, it is actually too big to list everything here and even URA has to create a MASTERPLAN for it.


Again, I am also not trying to promote any condo.

2. only bishan's roads are jammed?? you mean jurong east isn't jammed?? you mean that all the articles on stomp about people can't even get onto Jurong East Mrt platform are all faked?

3. there are no HILs in JLD. if you think HILs in the west = HILs in JLD, then you might well say that JLD is super prime because most ministers live in bukit timah = most ministers live in JLD

4. JLD caused higher income earners to move west!!!! wah piang, so all those living in new estates like punggol are beggars and lower classed scums lah?!??

The problem is Jurong MM at $16xx-$17xx has already priced in every single molecule of growth for the next 15 years!

But also cant blame the 24/7 defender who says he is not defender, when people bought Jurong MM at $16xx-$1,7xx then realised :

Bishan/Thomson MM selling for $1,5xx-$1,6xx !!!
AND Kovan/Hougang FREEHOLD MM selling for $16xx !!!

People scared, one and only investment end up like that.

But in the very near future, we will see more places sold or selling for $1,5xx-$1,7xx, then we post here to let other Jurong wannabe buyers BEWARE!

Dont be silly regulators and please dont get carried away by thinking that you are finally able to ask an intelligent question concerning property.

Investors are only interested growth potential, not historical price
If aiming for the most expensive property is the how you make money, then Bishan will not be on the top of that list.

Do you think that SV price in Bishan will appreciate faster than JG when both project TOP in 3 years time?

Have you conveniently forgotten about my question on $3000psf orchard property? Yes, when did Orchard property started selling at $3000psf, which project and what is the average unit size. And when did Jurong new launch sold at $500-600psf, which project, what average size.

Please dont be misled when people tell you NOT to worry about historical price and focus on the growth of a particular area.

Historical price is the ONLY thing you must focus on when making a purchase.

This applies to both the buy and sell legs.

Sell leg easier for people to understand, eg if you know your downstairs neighbor, same unit just sold for $1,250, dont get conned by people to sell at $1,150.

When buying, take note of the prices of surrounding area and the prices they are selling at. Be familiar with some of these concepts :

1) New launch vs resale premium
That is the amount people are willing to pay for new launches vs resale. You should not pay too much a premium. Eg. Nearby resale PC selling at $1,0xx-$1,1xx, you shouldnt be paying $1,6xx for a new launch.

2) FH and LH premium - wont disclose here what is the tecnically correct number, experienced investors should know this at their fingertips.

3) Project's pricing strategy, which I discussed in an earlier post.

Main thing is to stay calm and not rush and buy just because the queue very long and agent tell you that paying 40-50% premium is worth it!

It is better to pass then to kenna ripped off. Because as we know, we only got a few bullets to buy.

Anyone who bought the most expensive CCR apartment in 2008 will still be nursing their wounds. Thats a fact that you can see from the below chart.

For investors, its important to remember that historical price doesnt determine the future growth potential because in Singapore, urban development plays a big role in changing the property landscape of Singapore and that has got the greatest impact on property prices.

With the announcement of JRL, CRL + JLD, there is no reason for anyone to believe that prices of property in the west will not shine. And dont let anyone tell you that growth potential of west region property will be limited by historical price because J gateway success and strong rental demand in the western region have already proof otherwise.

Like i said before, if you wish to make money in property, focus on growth potential because with SSD, you dont really have time to waste your bullet holding on a property thats yields on 1% over the past 5 years (ie. for someone who have bought a CCR property at is peak in 2008)

We just need to let owners of the West BEWARE of what are the PCs new and old in Singapore that is selling at the same or lower price than $1,6xx-$17xx.

That is all we need to do.

Moderators, if you are reading this, it is time to bar ONE character from this forum that is hindering our discussion process.

This person has been inciting racial tension, keep mentioning about religious matters, call names and provoke angry responses.

So, please remove this person.

In comparison with PCDD/F emissions from waste incinerators (municipal, hazardous and medical), those corresponding to crematories are significantly lower".


"Although PCDD/Fs, usually referred to as dioxins, are generally produced
in many combustion processes (Kulkarni et al., 2008; Zheng et al., 2008;
Shen et al., 2009), until a few years ago, incinerators were catalogued as one of the most important sources of toxic emissions, not only PCDD/Fs but also heavy metals (Shibamoto et al., 2007; Zheng et al., 2008).
Therefore, incineration has received prolonged special attention, and the
concern raised has had significant implications in current regulatory
practices (Franchini et al., 2004; Lonati et al., 2007; Kim et al., 2008).
Intensive studies have been conducted on various PCDD/F emission
sources, including the waste combustion sources, chemical-industrial
sources, and other thermal sources."


Didn't we tell you that those chemical industries, waste combustion, waste incineration produced the most toxic stuffs? All those are in Jurong, Tuas, and Jurong Island! :banghead:

Basically I find this 24-hr PSI reading chart to be a joke. Basically it is telling us that the West area with all the heavy industries spilling all those toxic gases, CO, SO, has lower pollution than the Central catchment area! Anybody believe that? No I don't. So, the most logically thing must be that the West sensor is probably located in the middle of the Jurong Lake, while the Central sensor is probably beside a power generator thus hyping up measured pollution value! :rolleyes:



can any of you just ask your primary school kids to tell you which color chart correspond to lowest reading??? with ENT problem also can as long as they do not have color blind. if you need more detail, refers to NEA website. don't tell anyone or spread rumour about something you cannot smell, cannot be measured and so on...ppl likely to believe in fact.

your fart can make yourselves retard....be careful, don't fart too much! it will affect your family and ppl around you. thing that you can smell....what can you expect!

why don't u give a call to NEA and specifically ask them to put the sensor in Jurong island. better gauge I think.


Basically I find this 24-hr PSI reading chart to be a joke. Basically it is telling us that the West area with all the heavy industries spilling all those toxic gases, CO, SO, has lower pollution than the Central catchment area! Anybody believe that? No I don't. So, the most logically thing must be that the West sensor is probably located in the middle of the Jurong Lake, while the Central sensor is probably beside a power generator thus hyping up measured pollution value! :rolleyes:

Oh WIND! But the wind can never make all those toxic gases like CO and SO etc toxic gases disappear immediately when they are generated in the West. But surprising you are telling us that the wind make the toxic gases disappeared so that the West sensors will not measured them, and these toxic gases mysteriously flew across the whole big piece of West land without being captured by the "West PSI sensors" and phew they land in Central area and are only captured by the "Central PSI sensors"? That is absolutely absurd and illogical. I don't just accept anything I read as though they are the truth, we need to use our brain to distill and find the "real truth"! There is just a big "hole" in those data! :doh:

the reason why I am suggesting is not because I hope you will do it but because I know you cant do it,

I am just interested to see what sort of excuses you will give in order to create a false impression that you actually know a lot when we know you know so little.

Btw, talking about health and air pollution, I am not sure if you are aware that many pharmaceutical giants are operating out of Tuas, which is very close to the Tuas incinerator. So the question is, do you have reason to believe that these companies; who employs hundreds if not thousands of highly paid professional in the field of medicine and drugs, will agreed on the Tuas site if there is a real concern of air pollution?

teddybear
09-10-13, 23:09
Simple, because the govt didn't give them other choice and hence they have no other choice. Those highly paid professionals also have no other choice if they choose to work in those companies for the sake of the high pays.
That is why, Is it any wonder that their top-most level executives do not live in Jurong despite the fact that their plants are in Jurong? :ashamed1:
So, as you can see, the concern is very real, despite the fact that these people's families turn on the air-con 24 hours a day which in a way already can help to reduce and alleviate the toxic gases and pollution factors (and even after doing so, they refused to live in Jurong)!

Dear readers,

To some a River Valley PC is worth = same size Jurong PC + a holiday (say super expensive $100K holiday).

No wonder this same person end up paying $1,6xx-$1,7xx for a Jurong MM !

Most people knows a River Valley PC is worth at least 2 Jurong PC!

We seriously have to rest our case.

firstly before you go biting off more than what you can chew, at least know what PSI readings mean.

SO2, NO2, toxic gases are gaseous pollutants - i.e. they are not in particulate form and hence, do not constitute to PSI readings.


secondly, the PSI reading for the western region is higher than the rest of the island. so, you agree that air quality is relatively worse in the west?

lastly, don't use stats blatantly, lest it boomerangs and slap you in the face

I didn't say contamination risk for their products, as their products are manufactured indoor, QC controlled, air clean-filtered, but the same cannot said about the air people breath in outdoor. As for employees, they are already compensated with higher salaries and they should know their risks (e.g. you work in manufacturing involving toxic chemicals, you should know your risk right? Otherwise why would the company pay you high salary in manufacturing sector when they are supposed to be cheap to compete with low-cost manufacturing done in China?)

There are certain things which people know, but which few people will/order to carry out long-term investigations just to throw money to confirm the truth, and is better not to reveal the truth for the reason you mention - not multimillions but BILLIONS $ law suit. Anyway, since you can't prove it, they know that you have no case. And nobody is going to spend money to give you the proof to let you have the case to milk them. Having no case doesn't mean that there is no truth, and having no long-term study doesn't mean the risk doesn't exist (in fact, the shorter-term study already proven the risks, but people will always argue there is no long-term study to prove it, just like you if they want to deny it).

Intelligent/Smart people will know how to differentiate and take the necessary actions that are best for themselves, don't need to wait for somebody else to spoon-feed them. The worst are then who suffer long-term irrevocable illness and suffering without even knowing how they got it in the first place! :rolleyes:

Carbon monoxide poisoning is the most common type of fatal air poisoning in many countries. Carbon monoxide is colorless, odorless and tasteless, but highly toxic. It combines with hemoglobin to produce carboxyhemoglobin, which is ineffective for delivering oxygen to bodily tissues. In the U.S. 60% of carbon monoxide is caused by on road vehicles.

why dont we ask the professionals, the insurance companies and or/actuarists in the insurance companies?

i am sure there are a number of insurance agents in the forum.
they just need to input in the calculator and their software will spit out the premiums.

1)life insurance.
2)health insurance.
3)accident insurance.

are the premiums for the 3 above insurances
A) residents who live and work in Jurong/Tuas.
B) residents who live in Jurong but work in the East.
C) residents who live in the East but work in Jurong/Tuas.

i would suspect that the premiums for life, health insurance would be similar in all A,B,C
however, accident premiums would be higher for those working in manufacturing/factory/heavy industry environment.

if westerners have shorter life span, then their life premiums be higher isnt it?
if westerners have more health problems, then their health premiums be higher isnt it?

and if the life and health premiums are the same,
1) are the healthy easterners subsidising the unhealthy westerners?
2) there is no difference between life span & health of easterners and westerners?

i believe companies should have workplace insurance for employees. secondly, the premium of working in a high risk environment, e.g. deep see rigging, should be higher than working in a childcare center.

No one has the same willingness to pay (WTP). E.g. a sellor may thinks his place is worth $1m and there is a buyer who values it at $1.2m. There will be a deal done even if previous transactions are $950k only.

In terms of air quality in Jurong, there will be people who, after doing their research and experience it for themselves, decided to think it is not going to affect their WTP. Some may decided that this is the deal breaker and their WTP becomes very low. There are also lots of things that affect one's WTP. Some are particularly buillish on plans. Some felt plans are not important at all, location is.

So, there is no way we can convince everyone to agree on the same things and end up with the same WTP. If we can achieve it here, we probably has the formula for world peace. At the end of the day, if everyone thinks the same, it may be difficult to sell to a sellor who values your place higher than what you want to sell for.

It is getting quite ugly with everyone insisting that their own WTP is correct.

As I have said many time over, if you think there are genuine health risk for people living and working in Jurong, then you should write a thesis to prove what you say does affect the health of people living in the west.

Or else, the Orang Asli in Malaysia will start posting saying that Orchard Scotts Road pollution is health threatening because of the traffic etc. Are you going to dispute that exhaust gas coming out of cars, buses, taxi and trucks doesnt poses health risk.

1) Have you factor in the air pollution of the 2 crematorium, which is just over 1km away from Bishan? From what I have read, when a body goes up in flame, it will release toxic gas.

2) There are definitely more schools and institution in the western region region. details is available here (So there are no schools and HILs in the rest of Singapore?!!?)

3) As far as accessibility is concern, LTA has announced they are going to build 2 new MRT lines which will greatly help improve the connectivity of Jurong region, one is the Jurong region line, and the other is the cross region line, which will be completed in 2021-2025 and 2030.

As for road leading to bishan, you might want to know that the traffic on lornie road during peak hour can be extremely bad and this often caused jam all the way till PIE and Adams Road. (No traffic jams in Jurong??!)

Having said that, blueprint behind the JLD masterplan is to create a self contain regional commercial center, hence people living and working in Singapore will not have to leave Jurong at all.

4) Jurong is an extremly big region, and if you look at the map, you will know that its many many time bigger than Bishan estate. Hence if you wish to compare to Jurong estate, then it might be better if you combine Bishan and AMK. OR else you could compare Bishan to Toh Guan area.

As from demographic profile, jurong region has got the largest concentration of middle age group in Singapore and perhaps also has one of the highest percentage of 5 rm hdb flats in Singapore. And it has also been reported that as a result of JLD, there is an increase number of higher income earner moving towards west. I am sure if you do a google search you should be able to find the report.

http://forums.condosingapore.com/sho...18201&page=192 (http://forums.condosingapore.com/showthread.php?t=18201&page=192)

3) As far as accessibility is concern, LTA has announced they are going to build 2 new MRT lines which will greatly help improve the connectivity of Jurong region, one is the Jurong region line, and the other is the cross region line, which will be completed in 2021-2025 and 2030.

As for road leading to bishan, you might want to know that the traffic on lornie road during peak hour can be extremely bad and this often caused jam all the way till PIE and Adams Road. (No traffic jams in Jurong??!)

Having said that, blueprint behind the JLD masterplan is to create a self contain regional commercial center, hence people living and working in Singapore will not have to leave Jurong at all.

4) Jurong is an extremly big region, and if you look at the map, you will know that its many many time bigger than Bishan estate. Hence if you wish to compare to Jurong estate, then it might be better if you combine Bishan and AMK. OR else you could compare Bishan to Toh Guan area.

As from demographic profile, jurong region has got the largest concentration of middle age group in Singapore and perhaps also has one of the highest percentage of 5 rm hdb flats in Singapore. And it has also been reported that as a result of JLD, there is an increase number of higher income earner moving towards west. I am sure if you do a google search you should be able to find the report.

Basically I find this 24-hr PSI reading chart to be a joke. Basically it is telling us that the West area with all the heavy industries spilling all those toxic gases, CO, SO, has lower pollution than the Central catchment area! Anybody believe that? No I don't. So, the most logically thing must be that the West sensor is probably located in the middle of the Jurong Lake, while the Central sensor is probably beside a power generator thus hyping up measured pollution value! :rolleyes:

Trial begins against BP over Texas refinery emissions



By Erwin Seba
HOUSTON | Wed Sep 11, 2013 5:02pm EDT

HOUSTON (Reuters) -

Trial began on Wednesday in the first four of 48,000 civil lawsuits filed against BP Plc for pollution from the 460,196 barrel per day (bpd) refinery it owned in Texas City, Texas until early this year, according to court documents.

The four suits allege that people were harmed when the refinery released vapors into the atmosphere from its hydrocracking unit during a 40-day period in 2010. The city had a population of 45,099 in 2010, according to the U.S. Census.

Since the first lawsuits were filed in 2010, the British oil company has denied the claims that people were harmed by the emissions, which included 17,000 pounds of benzene, according to notices filed by the refinery with Texas pollution regulators.

BP said in a statement on Wednesday that: "Neither the community air-monitoring network nor the BP fence-line monitors showed elevated readings during April and May 2010 and we do not believe that any negative health impacts resulted from flaring at BP's Texas City refinery during this period."

The four plaintiffs whose cases began on Wednesday are seeking compensation of $200,000 each from BP. All 48,000 plaintiffs in the refinery lawsuits also are seeking a single punitive claim of $10 billion that would be donated to charity.

In 2011, BP paid $50 million to settle a lawsuit by Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott over pollution from the refinery between 2005 and
2011.

i mean does insurance companies really want to lose money if really jurong-ers have shorter life spans and more health problems?

think these are distinct issues.

1. there are pollutants all around us; vehicle exhaust, paint fumes, etc. it is a fact that the further the distance away from the source of toxic air plume, the lower the concentration. however, there is a finite distance and i believe NEA or the gov has regulations to safeguard air quality. hence, breathing next to an incinerator chimmney is NOT recommended. to keep things simple, let's not go into detailed calculations.

to those who are are purporting that the air quality around jurong/tuas is comparatively poorer, there is some truth to it.

2. assuming that point 1 is true, is there a correlation between the elevated levels of gaseous toxins and adverse short/long-term health outcomes? well, the levels may be too low. some may argue there could be long-term harm then. then we need to know how our bodies metabolize or excrete these toxins.

although air quality may be poorer, it may not negatively affect health and hence, no impact on insurance premiums. if anyone or agency can prove otherwise, our million-dollar-postman Vivian will be out of job faster than you can say "AH-CHOO!"

3. assuming that point 1 is false, there is no need to explain further.


BUT, i have a bone to pick when some moron claim cremation of bodies produce toxic gases that rival those from heavy industries.

In case you think flaring is a pretty (breathtaking) sight to behold...

Sometimes massive flaring also seen at Jurong Island (http://wildshores.blogspot.sg/2011/08/massive-flaring-at-jurong-island.html)


From Wikipedia
A gas flare, alternatively known as a flare stack, is a gas combustion (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustion) device used in industrial plants such as petroleum refineries (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_refinery), chemical plants (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_plant), natural gas processing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_gas_processing) plants as well as at oil or gas production sites having oil wells (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_well), gas wells (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_well), offshore oil and gas rigs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_rigs) and landfills (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landfill).

Whenever industrial plant equipment items are over-pressured, the pressure relief valves (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_relief_valve) provided as essential safety devices on the equipment automatically release gases and sometimes liquids as well. Those pressure relief valves are required by industrial design codes and standards as well as by law.
The released gases and liquids are routed through large piping (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping) systems called flare headers to a vertical elevated flare. The released gases are burned (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustion) as they exit the flare stacks. The size and brightness of the resulting flame depends upon the flammable material's flow rate in terms of joules (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule) per hour

Flaring constitutes a hazard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazard) to human health, and is a contributor to the worldwide anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide). For example, oil refinery flare stacks may emit methane (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methane) and other volatile organic compounds (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volatile_organic_compounds) as well as sulfur dioxide (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_dioxide) and other sulfur (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur) compounds, which are known to exacerbate asthma and other respiratory problems. Other emissions include, aromatic hydrocarbons (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromatic_hydrocarbons) (benzene (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzene), toluene (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toluene), xylenes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylenes)) and benzapyrene (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzapyrene), which are known to be carcinogenic.


The quote from the article linked below is also very interesting.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/05/06/keystone-xl-oil-refineries-pollution_n_3223339.html

Quote :

"Flaring also happens to be one of the ways that oil refinery emissions, such as cancer-causing benzene and other ozone-forming volatile organic compounds, escape detection (http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Environmental-groups-sue-EPA-over-refinery-4484297.php), and therefore regulation, according to a lawsuit filed against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency last Wednesday (http://www.environmentalintegrity.org/news_reports/documents/2013.05.01__EmissionFactorsComplaint_FINAL1.pdf)."

Health Studies

This 2003 study shows that the risk of stillbirth was 4% higher and the risk of the life threatening brain abnormality anencephalus was 5% higher among babies whose mothers lived near to crematoria. More details here.
Canada's Interior Health Authority did a literature review and "concluded that fumes from crematoriums are potentially harmful and that they should not be located close to a residential area." It also "found that particulate matter, which can be inhaled deep into lung tissue, is the chief threat." (see "Put a lid on fumes from cremation," Vancouver Sun, 5/12/2006)

Better stay far from the green...


After recently writing an article about Justin Timberlake’s newly reopened green golf course, Mirimichi, I began to dig deeper into the potential hazards that non-green golf courses pose and the ultimate cost that humankind and the environment will have to pay. One of the main and most talked about dangers of golf courses in recent years, has been the use of pesticides on golf course lawns.

So what’s the big deal with pesticides? Most golf courses employ pesticides in large quantities on their greens and fairways (in repeated treatments) in order to prevent pest problems. Rather than modifying their treatments to tackle specific problems, courses spray a cocktail of pesticides on their lawns; however this can lead to a dependency on the pesticides, in turn, necessitating more pesticides and a higher health risk to the public. In fact, one course in Long Island, New York was found to use four to seven times the average amount of pesticides used in agriculture, on a pound per acre basis.

ingesting pesticides can lead to health issues such as headaches, rashes, birth defects, learning disabilities, infertility, leukemia, and various cancers

These pesticides are not only a health danger to workers of golf courses or golfers, but to any nearby areas as well. Runoff and airborne drift carry the pesticides to close by neighborhoods and water sources and “pose health risks, both acute and chronic, from common cold like symptoms, nausea, dizziness, headaches, rashes, to birth defects, learning disabilities, infertility, leukemia, various cancers including brain cancer, breast cancer, [and] non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma”, says Jay Feldman of Beyond Pesticides. “Asthma rates in the U.S. have skyrocketed, and there are studies linking asthma to pesticides that are widely used on golf courses.”

I don't need to lie, facts tell by themselves. See attached picture - That "CENTRAL" region is in the CENTRE of Singapore, the Central Catchment Area!

So, now, you are trying to lie and mislead people right! :tsk-tsk:



:banghead::banghead::banghead: central mean the cbd.not Central catchment area.

PLS DON'T LIE TO YOUR OWNSelf.

Teddy, don't just count PM10. It is PM2.5 that will lodge in your lungs and give you lung cancer. If you count PM10 and PM2.5, the number is equal bad across island, about 60. To put that in perspective, AQI (including PM10 and PM2.5) is 8 in Toronto at this moment.

So, if you really worry about air quality, stop complaining and start packing to move to Toronto.

Don't worry, the PSI and PM2.5 measured in Singapore is not accurate, because how the hell can the "Central" region, consisting mostly of Central Catchment Area, have higher PSI and PM2.5 most of the time compared to the West area where the heavy industries are spilling all those toxic gases and smokes 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year? :rolleyes:

And we haven't talk about all those toxic gases are not captured in PSI and PM2.5 yet because these only measure particulates, not amount and toxicity of all those toxic gases! :banghead:

True, particulates are measured by AQI, not toxicity. But the country is so small, toxic air can get to your neck of the wood in two minutes. So what difference does it make you live at orchard or Jurong? You may be better off living on Jurong Island. the chimney is so high, the further you live away, the more toxic the air is, frankly.

Simple - the further you are from the source, the safer you are.
Since you agreed that the Jurong have more particulates, and Jurong is exposed to toxic gases 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, if the toxic gases become too much over long period of time, Jurong people will get it first. The rest of the region will get alerted and have time to make remedy actions. So, it is good that Jurong has more people living there as "litmus test", and help to cleanse the air there, and be the early warning system for the rest of the people living far away from Jurong. :beats-me-man:

don't need to waste your energy explaining to her. her mind is shut. even when you present facts, she will say facts are not true, many things cannot be seen or measured. she rather believe in things that she cannot see...:)

why central region sometimes higher PSI, wa lao, go ask secondary school kids la. she must have either failed her science or Physic or IQ damn low...pardon me, tabole tahan...:doh:

enough said. :2cents:

Not true, what you said. The smokestacks on Jurong Island are so high, the vicinity will be as clean as Snow White's cottage. It is the area where the toxic air lands that will receive most of the toxic air. Get it? With the right wind direction and velocity, CCR will be the "beneficiary" of this divine wind.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_pollution

Read the portion on Atmospheric Dispersion....

It is true that those working in the refinery are the safest after all..... HAHAHAHAHAHA

It uses a Gaussian dispersion model for continuous buoyant pollution plumes to predict the air pollution isopleths, with consideration given to wind velocity, stack height, emission rate and stability class (a measure of atmospheric turbulence)

Think about the HAZE from indo..... See how far it was.... So all of u guys better pray NEA put a check on the pollution.... HAHAHAHAHAHA

If not better by a house nearest to the chimey.... I believe there are people technical enough to be able to calculate based on the formula the dispersion...

I ain't one of them.... Hahahahaha

Dispersion model is old school. Now people use computational fluid dynamics. Don't stay near the chimney.

But Singapore is too small - west has Tuas, south has refinery and landfill, north has Pasir Gudang, east has Pengerang and central you get everything.
