Feng Shui:
Myth or Truth
Singapore is another city that has had phenomenal financial
growth. Its good fortune has been attributed to the persistent
practice of Feng Shui by Singapore's Prime Minister, Lee Kuan Yew.
When building the Mass Transit Railroad systems in the eighties,
the construction caused a decline in the economy. During a Feng
Shui consultation, Mr. Lee was told that Singapore's fortune could
be improved by hanging up a Ba Gua, the
eight-sided Feng Shui symbol. Since the government was not sold on
the placement of such a Chinese symbol, Mr. Lee instead introduced
a Ba Gua-shaped one dollar coin. When the economy still did not
recover, he created road tax disks in the shape of the Ba Gua and
the economy immediately improved. (And consequently, every car in
Singapore began hanging this symbol in their windshield.)
Years later, Mr. Lee was told that a dragon placed looking over
the mouth of Singapore River and the Merlion, Singapore's symbol,
would ensure Singapore's good fortune. So on the top left-hand
corner of the country's fifty dollar bill, Mr. Lee placed a scene
of the Singapore River, harbor, and Merlion. In this way the dragon
would be forever symbolically poised above the Merlion, thereby
safeguarding its prosperity forever.
