Interesting. What's the story? My ex-colleague Law Ah Kaw was once a Security Manager there.
Sorry I wish I know the story. Maybe someone here will know.
A lot of these are unverified urban legends. I did not pay attention to that story about how a temple ended up in Sago Lane.
But there are many stories of LKY making important decisions with important monks, like the late highly respectable Venerable Hong Chuan. In fact, he died soon after revealing a heavenly secret to Lee, but again I do not know. Her daughter is into buddhist chantings as well, so I heard.
But these are some of the famous stories. Sorry, I like to eat crabs, so I had to listen to crab stories.
Singapore the garden city
Singapore look like crab from the top view. Dead crab is red, the colour of cray barren ground.
Live crab is basically a dark shade of green. So,by planting trees, you make Singapore look alive.
MRT tunnels break Singapore fortune
The only solution was to ensure all Singaporeans carry a bagua with them.
$1 coin with the shape of a bagua, introduced just 2 months before MRT began its first operation.
The old road tax label is another example of carrying bagua.
Crab claws
Lee Kuan Yew in Tanjung Pagar while Goh Chok Tong is in Marine Parade.
If you look at Singapore as a crab again, these two locations are where the claws of a crab will be.
We know the strongest parts of a crab are its claws.
Loong has to be in AMK because of his Loong name.
During the recession in the 80s, we had just completed the Benjamin Sheares Bridge... which happens to suspend over the Singapore river, the mouth of the crab. This is as good as tying the mouth of the crab, thus choking it which explains the recession.
So clean up the river so that the mouth is clean and wealth can flow in without obstruction.
These days, you see the structure of Marina Bay Sands, all these have influences from Buddhism.
The best way to attack Singapore is how we kill crab, that is why it is important to have Malaya Railway station moved. Remember, how the Japs attacked and win Singapore, just like a chopstick down the middle of the crab.
Loong's cancer, currently taking TCM from Beijing, is another longevity story.
Connect the dots.
