There are a lot of choices to buy furniture in Singapore. Apart from the usual modern furniture, you can buy ready-made or custom-made rattan and oriental furniture. If you decide to buy Oriental furniture, be aware that their size and design may not be suitable once you are repatriated. A nice antique Chinese bed is not only difficult to transport but may look awkward in your living room at home in London, as nothing else will fit in! Besides, this furniture is made for use in a different climate and may shrink, expand and crack. Also, before shipping back your furniture you should have it fumigated!
Antiques and Reproductions
Before you start, you need to decide if you want to decorate your home, take back some memories or seriously collect specific items as an investment into the future. The term antique is used for a variety of items offered and you need to inform yourself first about the host and home countries’ regulations and custom requirements such as import and export restrictions on religious artifacts (e.g. Buddha statues).
- Educate yourself before you buy.
- Keep detailed receipts of each item, and take photos.
- Buy quality, not quantity.
- Envisage each item in your home country environment and be realistic about size, durability and looks.
- Insure expensive new purchases.
Custom-Made Furniture
To avoid confusion and disappointment, provide a sample or a photograph and specify your requirements in writing:
- Correct dimensions/measurements.
- Type of material to be used.
- Type of frame/material used.
- Type of finish and color.
- Type of foam to be used for padding and cushions.
- Springs to be used (box springs are recommended).
- Fabric of the cushion cover.
- Cording.
- Time of delivery.
- Price, incl. taxes and other costs involved.
- Deposits you made.
- Extra requirements like kiln-dried wood, fumigated etc.
- The support structure should be made of hardwood frames.
- Screws should be used instead of nails or staples.
- Cuts must be concealed.
- Wicker used should be evenly woven and have close fitting joints.
- Cushions should be made out of high-density foam.
Oriental Furniture
There are many different types depending on the country of origin, style or material used. Furniture made in India or Indonesia is often produced in small villages and come with a native touch rather than being in an immaculate condition, which is very exotic. Chinese furniture come in rosewood, camphor, lacquer, coromandel, teak, Elmwood and many other woods and may be antique, a reproduction or modern. Custom-made furniture should be seasoned or kiln-dried to avoid shrinking in a dry environment. To allow the wood to expand furniture should be produced with tongue-and groove- floating panels.
Teak Furniture
The Latin name for Teak is Tectona grandis, which is offered all over Southeast Asia. Teak is an extremely dense, coarse-grained hardwood, which is well known for its durability and resistance to water, the woodworm and many chemical agents. Today, there are teakwood plantations catering to the furniture industry.
When purchasing Teak furniture:
- Buy 100% solid teak. (Not Shorea wood or a combination of both woods.)
- Teak should be made from kiln dried and not green lumber.
- Teak should be plantation grown. Ask for certification.
- Thick pieces of wood used make the product solid and durable.
- Oil finishes will darken the products.
- Plain furniture lightens into a silver gray when left outdoors.
Oriental Carpets
- Before you buy any Turkish, Persian, Chinese, Pakistani, Indian or any other carpets check your own countries custom’s regulations as there may be restrictions on importing them back home.
- Join a class teaching you how to buy a genuine oriental carpet (sometimes offered by dealers.)
- Buy at a reputable dealer and insist on a certification with origin, description, price, date and place of purchase even when you pay cash and keep the receipts at a safe place.
- Try out your carpet at home before purchase and make yourself familiar with the return policy of the dealer.
- Before you bid at a carpet auction, learn the trade!
- Buy pads or rubberized mats (Ikea) together with your carpets to prevent slipping on marble, tile and wooden floors.
- Ask your dealer how to care for your carpet.
- Inquire about after-sales services like cleaning and repair.
Beds and Mattresses
Sizes of beds and mattresses are different form those in Europe, Australia and the US, that may imply difficulties buying suitable bed sheets when in Asia or back home. Some shops offer imported brand name beds in standard lengths but oversized beds are difficult to find. Southeast Asian beds are usually shorter and sometimes narrower. Sometimes mattresses in US sizes can be ordered for an additional charge. Never buy bed sheets or linen unless you have measured your bed before.
Electrical Appliances/Computers/Accessories
- Consider renting, rather than buying, new electrical appliances.
- Go price shopping and bargain.
- Items with local warranties are less expensive and will do if you do not want to take the item back home.
- International warranties are granted for brand names.
- See if repair center lists provided with the product include your home country.
- Have your warranties stamped by the dealer.
- Prices vary according to their origin (where they are manufactured).
- Check about the latest models before buying, as shops like to sell older models first.
- Desktop and notebooks need to have dual voltage power supply (110-220 V).
- All items ideally should have a voltage switch for use in other countries.
- Make sure prices stated include delivery and installation, if necessary.
- Insist on delivery time stated on the receipt.
- Include purchased item into your insurance on return!

If thereâ??s a proverb that captures the outlook for the U.S. economy in the New Year, itâ??s the one that says: â??Itâ??s always darkest before the dawn.â?
Regardless of any formal announcement of whether or not the United States drops into an actual recession, the ongoing credit crisis guarantees a contraction of the American economy by virtually every measure we know. That period of darkness will be marked by a dramatic slowdown in economic activity, as well as by rising unemployment, additional declines in U.S. stock prices, and constant volatility. It could last as long as 12-18 months.
But when the dawn does come, it will be one to remember. If U.S. President-elect Barack Obama gets it right - and I have every reason to believe that he will - then investors will be presented with the greatest investment opportunity of our generation. At that point, shares of American companies will be at such low levels that wholesale buying by individuals, mutual funds, pension funds, institutional money managers, and foreign-controlled sovereign wealth funds, will generate gains that will not only make us whole, they will make us rich once again.
A Market Mandela
Creating an analysis of the U.S. economyâ??s outlook for the New Year is akin to creating a mandala, a geometric work of art whose pattern, symbolically or metaphysically, represents a microcosm of the universe from the human perspective. In some Buddhist temples, mandalas are made of tiny colored beads, painstakingly created by several monks as a form of meditation. In celebration of the ever-changing nature of the universe, the mandala is then joyously shaken by its creators, until it is once again nothing more than chaos embodied in a box of colored beads.
Regardless of the big picture, analysis of a mandala - or the economy - always starts at the center and emanates outward. With the U.S. economy, that centerpiece is credit. The credit crisis has shaken the complex mandala that is our economy and transformed the United States economy into chaos. Itâ??s complex because this economic-forecast mandala derived its form from thousands of individual pieces - in the case of the economy, from scores of data points, many of which are currently dark and foreboding.
The credit crisis we are experiencing results from the contraction - or worse, the cessation - of lending. Under normal circumstances, institutions and markets freely facilitate capital movement between lenders and borrowers. But thatâ??s not happening, now.
Because of a lack of transparency into the balance sheets of borrowers holding such complex and illiquid securities as collateralized debt obligations, credit-default swaps, and non-performing loans, and because of increasing recessionary fears affecting businesses and households, lenders donâ??t want to increase their loan exposure. Banks are holding onto the cash and liquid securities they control, using them as a cushion against their own potential losses. The U.S. Treasury Departmentâ??s direct-to-bank capital injections do not alter these banking realities. In fact, as a Money Morning investigative story recently demonstrated, instead of using these taxpayer-provided infusions to increase their lending, these banks are using the money to finance takeover deals.
The Recipe for a Recession
Whether or not the United States is technically in a recession ultimately will be divined by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER). The business-cycle dating committee of this privately run, nonprofit economic research group is right now studying five factors in an attempt to determine if the United States has entered a recession and, if so, when that downturn started, MarketWatch.com reported. Those five factors are:
- Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
- Industrial production.
- Employment
- Income.
- Retail sales.
Regardless of any formal announcement by the NBER of whether weâ??re in a recession, the credit crisis guarantees a general contraction of economic activity, by every measure.
â??Any doubt that weâ??re officially in a recession can be put aside,â? Anthony Karydakis, former chief U.S. economist for JPMorgan Asset Management (JPM) - and now a professor at New York Universityâ??s Stern School of Business - recently wrote in Fortune magazine. â??The rapid deterioration of labor markets points to a sharp decline in hours worked and output in the fourth quarter. This is likely to lead to a decline in personal consumption to the tune of 5.0% or so for that period. Since [consumer spending] makes up about 70% of the economy, the stage has already been set for real GDP to shrink at a more than 4.0% rate in the fourth quarter.â?
Confirmation of that belief is evident by looking at each of the NBERâ??s five key indicators.
- Gross Domestic Product (GDP): The U.S. Commerce Department estimated that the U.S. economy, as measured by GDP, rose 0.9% in the first quarter. In the second quarter, GDP advanced an estimated 2.8%. For the third quarter, GDP declined an estimated 0.3%. My own econometric models suggest that GDP actually contracted at a 1.5% pace in the third quarter and will decline another 2.75% in the fourth quarter. For the year, that would mean the U.S. economy actually fell 0.55%. The U.S. economy last posted a full yearâ??s negative GDP in 1991, when it declined 0.2%. Verdict: Recession.
- Industrial Production: This measure of output by the nationâ??s factories and mines dropped 2.8% in September, and a very steep 6.0% in the third quarter. Verdict: Recession.
- Employment: The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics announced Friday that Octoberâ??s unemployment rate was 6.5%, a jump of 0.4%, which was double what most economists expected, and also its highest level in 14 years. The economy has now lost a total of 1.2 million jobs since the beginning of the year, with nearly half of those losses occurring in the last three months alone, pointing to an acceleration in the pace of erosion in labor markets. Karydakis, the Stern School professor, wrote in
Fortune : â??By way of comparison, during the 2001 recession and in the sluggish growth that followed in 2002-03, the unemployment rate reached a peak of only 6.3%, in June 2003. Weâ??ve already exceeded that mark and, given that we are still in the early phase of the current recession, the unemployment rate should be expected to push toward the 7.5% range - and possibly higher - during the next three months to six months.â?
Verdict: Recession. - Income: Personal income increased $24.5 billion, or 0.2%, and disposable personal income (DPI) increased $25.7 billion, or 0.2%, in September. Personal consumption expenditures (PCE) decreased $33.6 billion, or 0.3%. Excluding the rebate payments made to U.S. taxpayers under the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008, DPI increased $30.3 billion, or 0.3%, in September, and increased $44.0 billion, or 0.4%, in August. Verdict: Too close to call.
- Retail Sales: October retail sales are coming in well below already-diminished expectations, and some reports have been downright depressing - including The Neiman Marcus Group Inc. -26.8%; The Gap Inc. (GPS) -16%; The Nordstrom Group (JWN) -15.7%; J.C. Penny Co. Inc. (JCP) -13%; Kohlâ??s Corp. (KSS) -9%; Ltd. Brands Inc. (LTD) -9%; Target Corp. Inc. (TGT) -4.8%; and Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT) +2.4%. In a report last week, Moodyâ??s Investors Service (MCO) projected that the retail sectorâ??s woes will continue into 2009 as consumers cut back on buying apparel, footwear and accessories â??in order to save money for essentials.â? The credit rating firm said in a separate report that holiday spending â??will prove even weaker than expected,â? amid Octoberâ??s financial-market swoon. Verdict: Recession.
If U.S. exports are taken out of the GDP calculations going back to January, itâ??s apparent that there has been very little domestic growth in the economy. And when revisions are finalized in the next few months, weâ??ll be looking back at the recession that weâ??re all but certain is upon us right now. Until the credit markets are freed up and borrowers are extended credit at reasonable rates, itâ??s unlikely that credit, the centerpiece of the economy, will be anything other than a major cog in the wheel.
There are some signs of a thaw, but not anytime soon. The U.S. Federal Reserveâ??s lowering of the Fed Funds target rate to 1.0%, and coordinated rate reductions by the Bank of England and the European Central Bank, as well as other major world-wide central banks, may start to ease the stranglehold gripping the worldwide credit markets. The London interbank offered rate (Libor), a critical interest rate against which trillions of dollars of mortgages, bank loans and derivatives are priced, dropped to 2.39% last week from a high of 4.82% on Oct. 10.
The prospect of President-elect Obamaâ??s choosing a different means of attacking the credit crisis will be closely watched and, by itself, may create an air of confidence that perceptions will change. But changed perceptions will not be enough.
The truth about our economic outlook is that it is predicated on demonstrably better transparency. If U.S. banks follow the lead of their European counterparts, which have recently been freed from fair-value, mark-to-market accounting, and which may retroactively mark assets to â??internal modelsâ? back to July, then balance-sheet clarity will continue to be cloaked in darkness. Lack of confidence in the banking system will persist, especially among the banks themselves. The first order of attack needs to be the creation of a fundamental leadership position that leads to an open, transparent and accountable measure of balance sheet assets and liabilities. As long as failing banks are being propped up, this cycle of credit contraction will persist.
The outlook for the economy is inextricably tied to the price of oil. The run-up of benchmark crude this summer to the record $145 a barrel level, and its subsequent fall to half that level, has wreaked havoc throughout the economy. Similarly, the run-up in commodity prices, and their subsequent fall, also has caused a lot of damage. Together, the dramatic rise and fall in the pricde of oil and other commodities is a harbinger of greater volatility in the future.
Follow the Money
Follow the money. Capital rapidly inflated the tech-stock bubble. When that bubble burst, capital flowed into and flooded the hard-asset world of real estate. When that bubble burst fast, speculative money dove into oil and commodities. When the U.S. and world economies looked weak, those bubbles burst. The looming threat of inflation this past summer instantly gave way after the drop of oil, gold, metals and agricultural commodities. And now, deflation is seen as the looming threat on the horizon.
Which threat should we worry about?
The answer is - both. The prospect for near-term deflation seems all too real. As raw material prices fall and finished good prices fall due to a lack of purchasing power resulting from lack of credit and world-wide recessionary fears, the U.S. consumer has fundamentally changed his or her collective psychology. Is U.S. consumerism, which is responsible for 70% of GDP, in full retreat? If it is, as all measures project, then itâ??s likely that government stimulus efforts will overshoot their intended mark.
Just look at what the United States has done already as it battles this financial crisis. It has:
- Handed out more than $150 billion in stimulus rebate checks.
- Floated a $700 billion financial bailout rescue plan - almost $160 billion of which has already been placed.
- Bailed out American International Group Inc. (AIG), to the tune of $125 billion.
- Covered JP Morgan Chase & Co.â??s bet on taking over
The Bear Stearns Cos. - to the tune of $29 billion. - Looked to lend struggling automakers $25 billion.
- Agreed to guarantee depositors at all banks.
- Stepped in to buy commercial paper that no one else will buy.
- Guaranteed money-market-fund investors.
- And backstopped the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC), Fannie Mae (FNM) and Freddie Mac (FRE).
And now weâ??re getting wind of another stimulus package and more help for everyone.
If, in six months to a year, the credit markets are facilitating borrowers again, the massive buildup of U.S. debt will result in a falling dollar and higher interest rates.
That spells inflation.
A massive re-inflation of the economy portends another flood of speculative money into oil and commodities. The cycles are increasingly condensed, more volatile and will be increasingly more disruptive.
Welcome to the brave new world of global finance and speculation.
The Federal Reserveâ??s balance sheet has ballooned from $900 billion to more than $1.8 trillion. Thatâ??s 13% of GDP. The Treasury Department has telegraphed its intention to float $550 billion of debt in the fourth quarter and estimates it will have to float another $368 billion in the first quarter of 2009. Our national debt will then be close to 49% of GDP.
If there is an easing of credit in the economy, and borrowers come to market with the pent-up demand that has not been met for the past year, the competition for funds will raise interest rates. Higher interest rates will counter any stimulus effect from government programs.
Who will buy U.S. Treasury debt if the world is less apprehensive about credit quality? Lenders will once again seek higher returns, potentially forcing the Treasury Department to increase its rates. The potential of this event may sink the dollar if investors perceive that the U.S. economy is stagnant and the world is awash in dollars. The yield curve - the spread between the Treasuryâ??s two-year and the 10-year paper - has been steepening. A steepening yield curve, where short-term borrowing costs are low and long-term rates considerably higher, is good for banks that borrow short and lend long.
But if the perception of risk diminishes, and the perception of future inflation increases, the yield curve will invert and the threat of rising rates will cause a sell-off in the short end of the curve and a rush into longer-dated maturities. Any increase in short-term interest rates would be painful for struggling banks. An inverted yield curve would be devastating, and inevitably would lead to more bank failures.
Home on the Range â?¦
At the core of the U.S. economy sits a desperately ailing piece of the mandala - the U.S. housing market. The once bright prospect of home ownership, which historically formed a beautiful economic picture, right now doesnâ??t exist. For most Americans, the family home constituted the bulk of their wealth. Or at least it did. And this family financial portrait will get worse before it gets better, since the real estate collapse is far from over. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS), for instance, projects another 15% drop in housing prices.
I think thatâ??s conservative. Mortgage rates are actually rising as Fannie and Freddie have to pay higher interest on their short-term notes and bonds. Thirty-year fixed-rate mortgage paper averaged 6.47% last week, up from its 52-week low of 5.36%. The 15-year fixed paper was trading at 6.18%, up from its 52-week low of 4.91% (based on Bankrate.com (RATE) rate surveys). This trend is definitely not our friend. As housing prices continue to fall, and inventories stagnate and grow in many areas, homeowners are increasingly underwater and are increasingly entertaining foreclosure as a viable economic alternative to indentured servitude.
The Hope for Homeowners Plan, which looks to lower interest rates and reduce principal on mortgages, and which makes homeowners pay a share of the appreciation on their home to their lender when they sell it, was initiated in October and was expected to garner some 400,000 takers. As of last week, according to The Wall Street Journal, there had been only 42 takers. Thatâ??s not a misprint - 42 - I even checked with The Journal.
In the real estate realm, the proverbial â??other shoeâ? hasnâ??t dropped yet, but certainly is dangling - and thatâ??s commercial real estate. As homeowners writhe in agony and stop spending, retailers will go out of business, businesses of all stripes will suffer and commercial real estate will implode. The leverage left over from just the private equity foray into commercial real estate in the acquisitive 2006-2007 period is staggering. Refinancing will be impossible. Banks are stuck with hundreds of billions of dollars of leveraged loans that they took on as bridge and mezzanine financing from the private-equity shops alone, at the time believing they would be able to securitize those loans and sell them off to investors.
Thereâ??s no chance of that, now.
One deal in particular illustrates this entire mess. Private equity behemoth The Blackstone Group LP (BX) took Hilton Hotels Corp. private for $26 billion. Blackstone put up $6 billion of its own money as equity and borrowed the other $20 billion from Bear Stearns, Bank of America Corp. (BAC), Deutsche Bank AG (DB), Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley (MS), Merrill Lynch & Co. Inc. (MER) and Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (OTC: LEHMQ).
Based on a current analysis of the deal at the multiple of seven times projected cash flow that the market currently puts on Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. (HOT) - Hiltonâ??s nearest rival - if Blackstone values its property comparably, it will have to mark its Hilton holdings down 50%, because it paid 13 times projected cash flow. That wipes out all of Blackstoneâ??s equity in the deal. Whatâ??s more, the $4 billion portion of the loan that Bear Stearns took on, courtesy of JP Morgan Chase casting off Bearâ??s orphaned liabilities, now sits on the Fedâ??s balance sheet - and isnâ??t likely to go anywhere anytime soon.
Until the real estate cycle completes its implosion and begins to stabilize, thereâ??s nothing that will fundamentally alter the outlook for the economy. This is Ground Zero. President-elect Obama must resist creating only a political solution to the overwhelming economic problem of declining house prices and declining real estate prices in general. Any attempt to put a band aid on this economic plague will only delay the day of reckoning. I regret deeply the conclusion that the lake must be drained before we can realistically climb out of it. But there just arenâ??t enough ferrymen to get us all to shore.
Always a Silver Lining - My Forecast
The outlook for the economy is not rosy - and thatâ??s an understatement. But there is a silver lining. Even in the near term, the stock market will present innumerable wealth-creation opportunities.
- First, there are plenty of shorting opportunities out there now, and more will present themselves in the future.
- Second, in due course - in perhaps 12-18 months - we will be presented with the investment opportunity of our generation. If President-elect Obama gets it right, and I believe heâ??s got the potential to bring us all together and get the country through this (and if youâ??re reading this Mr. President-elect, Iâ??d like to put in my vote for [New York Fed President] Timothy Geithner as next U.S. treasury secretary), American companies will be able to be purchased so cheaply that fortunes will be made. The recovery will not only make us whole, it will make our people and our nation rich again.
I have absolutely no doubt that the United States will lead the world back into balance. The sea change that has arrived is the result of the conservative experiment having lost its true moorings, pushing the economy into disaster. Not that a wholesale swinging of the pendulum to the other side would be good. In fact, it would be disastrous. We have the potential to end up with a new, fair, transparent and judiciously regulated environment where capital formation can again spread its wings and the U.S. economy can fly.
There are new hands reaching into the colorful box of beads that comprise the American landscape and economy. From any human perspective, the United States is more than a microcosm of the universe; it is the center of the world as we know it. It will take time to construct the new mandala. We all need to meditate on the process to ensure that the design we embrace will ultimately be inclusive, forward-looking and - like all great art - an inspiration to all who view it.

I want to buy a silver bar or coin for low price but i don’t know where. I know one of the company that selling those but they give me kinna high price. so i hope someone know and give me some advise please! Thanks a lot!
since a coin is an actual asset, and not merely a a line of data in some broker’s system somewhere, it can never be bought/sold as cheaply as a stock or an online metal.
The cheapest way to "own" metals is through commodities or certain types of stocks. Unfortunately metals isn’t really my thing.
If you really want the coins, you can get them mail order or from a local coin shop. If you know what coin you want, you just start by looking on e-bay and go from there.
There are many, many online coin brokers - way too many to mention. If you just want to buy one coin, it won’t be worth your effort to research this. Just pay an extra couple of dollars and go to a coin shop where there is a bored but knowledgeable clerk who will stare at your boobs while you ask questions.

It’s never easy to search for a gift for someone you love. When buying gifts for a woman you love, you can never go wrong with jewelry. Though all women like jewelry, it is important to choose the right piece. Sometimes, a poor choice can send things downhill! You can also present jewelry to your girlfriend, colleague, mom, sister, wife or daughter and if you have chosen correctly you will always see a smile on their faces.
Buying jewelry for a woman is a good decision, but choices abound. You can buy earrings, watches, bracelets, necklaces, bangles, anklets, and brooches. It all depends on your budget and your feel for the woman’s taste. You can buy jewelry in gold, yellow gold, white gold, platinum, silver or some other metal alloy. When it comes to jewelry with gemstones and beads, there are hundreds of colors to choose from. If you are ready to spend more money, gift her with diamonds so that you are remembered forever.
Buying watches for a colleague is the best choice if she is a woman. You can find designer watches with inexpensive semiprecious stones or you can buy great ones with Swarovski crystals. If the lady is middle aged, pearls will do well. Pearl necklaces are very popular among women and if you know she likes bold pieces, you can gift her with choker necklace. Bracelets and earrings made of pearls also do well. Pearl sets are great anniversary gifts for your mom.
Bracelets are great choices for a friend, but again, you have to know what she likes. Some people like bold bracelets while others like simple ones with or without gem stones. Wide cuff bracelets are suitable for many women and you’ll note that many celebrities wear them. Charm and vintage bracelets never go out of fashion. When you buy a gift for a woman, you should take care that you donâ??t buy something that was trendy last year but is now out of fashion.
You can make your sister say “Wow!” with cute earrings with lapis or onyx stones. These stones are currently in fashion and they look great in necklaces and bracelets with other bright gem stones. If you donâ??t know what she loves, you can take a look at her jewelry box. Heart shapes are great valentine gifts and many jewelry designs accommodate these shapes to please the women. Dangles are cute and charming and you can find vintage pieces as well.
The best bet for gift for women is definitely jewelry, but it is important to know what she likes. Every woman has her own choices of jewelry and you can easily reach her heart when you take some steps to know what jewelry she likes. These gifts are not just for the day and you want her to recall your sweet relationship every time she wears the jewelry.
