Description

In this episode, we discover how ancient Feng Shui principles shape Singapore’s modern skyline - from Marina Bay Sands’ asymmetrical curves to Suntec City’s wealth-retaining "hand-shaped" towers. We learn why the Singapore Flyer spins clockwise for luck, how Boat Quay’s peculiar shape attracts prosperity, and the urban legend of the "dragon vein" beneath Singapore’s surface. And what did the ever-pragmatic Lee Kuan Yew think about the cultural influence of Feng Shui in Singapore?

Tell You First is an original podcast produced by Mediacorp and Ministry of Funny (@ministryoffunny).
