Tall Tale


It has been for months now, since the tale of the controversial mansion of the previous local councillor of Klang, rocks the nation. This councillor, who is the late Mr. Z build his mansion, some called castle, without proper approval from the local council. His notoriety of knowing the law and yet breaking the law is infamous. Ever since the ruling coalition party lost their grips over the state of Selangor to the oppositional front, Mr. Z’s empire collapsed to the brink of his death, being again shrouded with controversies, as some claimed he is not yet dead but enjoying the tropical sun in an Island off Jawa. For sure, as the “legend” goes, Malaysia “Boleh” or simply means Malaysia Can Do principle is astonishing, that as to the extend, “accused albeit murderer” may be acquitted, “amateur CCTV porn star” may be the community leader, anyone may be labelled “terrorist of the nation” and be put to jail without trial and yet we were also blessed with space tourist being called an astronaut, what else could we wish for more?

Again, the “Boleh” principle also applied to the so called famous Fengshui Master in town, analysing, dissecting, speculating and divining the ill fated mansion of the late Mr. Z, pouring tons and tons of hypotheses from flying star to 8 mansions to landform and to others whereas the reasons are as obvious as before. It is simply a LienZhen structure being in the wrong location at the wrong time. It completes with Qi mouth and bright halls, yet disaster spell, why?

It brings to mind, another article by another self-acclaimed master trainer in town about the Burj in Dubai, completes with lucid explanation of the land formation, table mountain, embrace and Qi mouths, yet the crust of its success does not solely depend on that criteria but sharing the same LienZhen structure in the right location at the right time, why?

So, do not be taken away by the “boleh” principle of being the tallest or the biggest, and to some extend, the crappiest, the famous, the oldest and the youngest, loosing sight of its context, its origin and its lineages, not otherwise things may backfired, wishing for a jade but receiving a brick, instead.

Next time, when one says “boleh”, think again. It may be another tall tale for another time…
