Grass need to trim and takecare.

Trim it short and let it grow again. Those a heavy bunch, trim it more down. Put some fertilizer and it will look very green evenly.

If the soil have problem, your grass won't grow already. Your grass is already in good condition. Just need to trim and takecare.

Evenly expose at all time? You sure no shade at certain time?
They could be dig by dogs, cats and etc.
You cut a thin line between you pavement and grass. Cut all the way down to the soil and remove it together with the root. Is line creating a line between your pavement and grass. It will look very tidy and need.

Yes, create a gap between grass and pavement.
If you keep the grass short, you will see a line.

Always cut no more than 1/3 of the grass height. U cut short then the soil will be more exposed to sun's heat and soil will dry faster.

Went to Sg. Buloh today and there's one nursery selling this special kind of pearl grass which has white lines on the leaves. Only found this type of pearl grass at this nursery.

Intend to plant this grass when I've prepared the soil.

You should trim it short, to around 2 inch. This will inevitably exposed the brown areas which are the stems. The brown parts will provide new leaves when they are exposed to sun.. The brown patches will get smaller during subsequent trimming. Frequent monthly trimming at 3-3.5 inch will produce nice compact lawn.
