Family home of Ananda Krishnan

We were on a walking tour of Brickfields in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia recently. The guide took us past a house which he said was the family home of Ananda Krishnan.

Who Is Ananda Krishnan?

Ananda Krishnan

Ananda is said to be the second wealthiest in Southeast Asia, number 89 in the world with a fortune valued at US$9.6 billion, He was born in Brickfields and had an MBA from Harvard University, USA. His main business interests are in telecommunications/media (Astro, Maxis), oil/gas and property.

Maxis towers, dragon side of Twin Towers, Kuala Lumpur

Note the “Feng Shui” configuration. The main property is the Petronas Twin Towers (a Malaysian icon) with two buildings on either side. On the dragon side (left), the taller Maxis tower and on the tiger side (right), Mandarin Oriental Hotel. There is a lake in front of these buildings which shows the facing direction.

Comment of the house.

The house is receiving energy from 2 different sources.
1. From the junction on the dragon side (left) of the house.
2. From the River Klang which is passing the house on the tiger side (Right).

The quality of energy from both sources is good. I have not seen a property, which was not designed with feng shui from inception, receiving so much good energy from so many different sources.

It is all about Location, Location and Location.

Comment:
1. I would like to make a point on two statements which keep cropping up in Feng Shui books.
Avoid property in a cul-de-sac
Avoid property near a “T” junction.
This house is in a cul-de-sac and near a “T” junction. This is a house with seriously good feng shui.

My reply to people’s queries are usually “It depends”. I need more information. There are no absolutes, it just depends.

2. Many people try to improve their home with cures or home improvements. My point is that, you can always find another property that will be receiving good energy after trying home improvements. Move to that new property is a more dependable solution. It depends on you. This is the best way to get a home with good feng shui.

Hanna has sold her main residence and is staying in a rented property. She is looking for 2 properties; one for herself and another for investment (a buy to let) within the home counties (the area around London).

This diary will follow her visits to each property – looking and giving an opinion for each.

The main purpose is to assist Hanna decide whether
a – Is the property suitable to be her main residence?
b – As investment property, will it be able to hold the asking rent, be able to get tenants easily without having any void periods (ie Landlord friendly).

I will be using feng shui techniques to get the insights of the property.

House Buying – House 4

This property is split up into a number of flats. It is located on top of a hill with the energy moving away on the buildings left side (dragon side). There is very little energy going into the building.
It is near a licenced business premises. This can be useful for some but a late night annoyance for others.

Comment:

1. As a main residence: You will miss the opportunities in your life.
2. As an investment property “buy to let”. Difficult to get tenants. Can expect to get long void periods.

Not recommended.

House Buying – House 3

The building (in the image) is at an end of a cul-de-sac is sub-divided into a number of flats.
There is a convoluted passage to get into the property. You have to go through the gates, pass the front of the building then down the narrow passage by the brick wall (on the right of the image, next to the red car). There is not direct and hardly any energy (qi) will get into this property. Therefore, each flat was not have insufficient energy.

I would suspect, there was difficulty in selling the property in the first place.

This diary will follow Hanna who is looking for 2 properties – one as her main residence and the other for a buy-to-let investment. Hanna has sold her home and she is currently staying in a rented property.

The main purpose is to assist Hanna decide whether
a – Is the property suitable to be her main residence?
b – As investment property, will it be able to hold the asking rent, be able to get tenants easily without having any void periods (ie Landlord friendly).

Middle property in the image:

One of 2 single level properties, adjoining a larger property but in a small secluded area with ample off-street parking facilities. On the left side of the property (dragon side) when you look out of the front door, there is a taller, 2 level building. This side (dragon) is the male side, indicating stronger masculine energy in the property.

Energy in the property is “masculine”.
a. If your energy is masculine, you will be comfortable here and your behaviour will be in keeping with masculine energy in this property.
b. If you live here but do not have the this masculine energy, you will feel uncomfortable here. But, the longer you live here, you will adapt to this energy and your behaviour will appear more masculine.

Main residence: Suitable accommodation. Regular shaped property a moderate amount of energy.
Investment property: It would be quite a desirable property for tenants.

Hanna: This property has been on the market for quite sometime and the asking price is way out of line with the current market conditions. He would not budge an inch on the price. Therefore, it could not be viable as an investment property.

Michael: By not yielding to changes can be considered a very masculine behaviour.

House Buying – House 1

A detached property on a slope but in close proximity to other properties. The front appears to have been renovated recently.

The energy in the property is not stable and at time, can change dramatically at unexpected times.

1. As a main residence: There would be a high probability of a serious issue requiring you to move out between 12 to 24 months.
2. As an investment property “buy to let”. Tenancies would be short lived and there would be associated marketing costs in getting new tenants.

Not recommended.

Hanna: The current owners splitting up their relationship and are selling the property.

Hanna previous home:
Hanna lived in a “terraced property” at a bottom of a valley. Energy flows down the road in 2 different directions and there is a small road further down the valley which allows the energy to leak away. This forms an energy pool at the bottom of the valley. Her house is filled with energy as it tapped into this energy pool. The property has a regular shape but with a small missing area. Initially, I thought that it would be a good property but it faces a minor void direction. There is a mixture of two different types of energy present in the house.

Therefore, the people in this property would be “confused” and things would take longer than expected – slow progress in whatever they do.

Comment:

Hanna: “I got things done eventually but it took time and at a cost.”
