Property investment and quality of air?

[Windwaver]

So far, every time our neighbor gives us some 'poisonous' air, I notice the western part of Singapore especially Tuas and Jurong kena the most. That is a no brainer given the fact that area is nearest to where the fire is burning.

 

I brought this up because many property investors that I come across seem not to put that into consideration at all.

 

What do you guys think?

I agree with wind30. I think those property investors do not want to point it out to make you paiseh.

Wah liao, of course NOT my friend. I'm just surprise that most people didn't put that into their list of consideration.

 

Seriously, the foul air is something that can be very harmful. PSI is one thing, at least we can SEE it but PM2.5 is another thing.

 

For those who are not sure what PM2.5 is;

 

Taken from http://www.epa.gov/pmdesignations/faq.htm

 

"Particles less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter (PM2.5) are referred to as "fine" particles and are believed to pose the greatest health risks. Because of their small size (approximately 1/30th the average width of a human hair), fine particles can lodge deeply into the lungs"

I know him..........but he don't know me

 

The son of a fishmonger, Peter Lim was educated at the Raffles Institution and obtained a degree in accountancy at the University of Western Australia. Singapore's Sunday Times described him as "publicity shy" and supporting education without seeking the spotlight, having worked as a cab driver, a cook and a waiter during his university days.[3][4]

 

Lim became a stockbroker for mainly Indonesian clients. His successful returns earned him the nickname "Remisier King" (Singapore term for stockbroker).

 

In 1996, he became a fulltime investor, investing $10 million in palm oil producer Wilmar International, now valued at $700 million
