A Whole Lot of Talking

Spend more time in the South, Southwest and North sectors of the house or office, and avoid the Northwest in 2014.

That's the advice given by Datuk Joey Yap, founder of the  Mastery Academy of Chinese Metaphysics --- a global organisation devoted to the teaching of Feng Shui, BaZi, Mian Xiang and other Chinese Metaphysics subjects.

Fengshui is not a religion, so one doesn't need to be a believer.  But one can always test it.

Yap, who is also the chief consultant of the Joey Yap Consulting Group, an international consulting firm specialising in Feng Shui and Chinese Astrology services, was at the appreciation dinner of property developer Eco World Development Sdn Bhd.

Datuk Joey Yap

Yap shared a few tips, like having the Fire, Wood and Metal element in one's "bazi" (birthchart) to enjoy success this year.  One's features such as the eyebrows, ears, eyes, forehead also tells much about a person.  The details I can't remember already as I was listening whole-heartedly at the time and didn't take down notes. I just remembered that I have a bad memory.  Maybe I need to read Yap's books.

And Yap also does not promote fengshui cures, such as displaying fengshui items.  He says that is the work of an interior decorator.

Also present were Eco World chief executive officer Datuk Chang Khim Wah and its divisional general manager Phan Yan Chan.

The appreciation dinner was held at the banquet hall of this hotel.

Yes, I am back at the Renaissance Hotel Johor Bahru located in Bandar Baru Permas Jaya.

Earlier, I attended another talk.  This one was at the Pekin Restaurant, and organised by another property developer Tanah Sutera Development Sdn Bhd.

It was an education talk.  One of the speakers was Matahari Private School principal Dr Lim Poh Ju, who gave a very lively and interesting talk.  Another speaker was this lady who "talked" rubbish.

Dr Hia Hui Ching

Dr Hia Hui Ching is the in-house effective micro-organism consultant at Tanah Sutera.  No, I didn't mean her talk was rubbish.  I meant she was talking about how to make good use of rubbish using the concept of the 5Rs --- reduce, re-use, re-think, recycle and responsible --- which have been adopted by Tanah Sutera in all its development projects and the cleaning and maintenance of the Sutera Mall.

By adopting the 5R concept and technology, one can contribute to earth conservation efforts.

Enough talking for the day.  It has been a memorable, eventful day.  Much to be thankful for.  Going to sleep now in the room located in the Southwest part of the house.  Good night.
