In the near future, when a vaccine for COVID-19 is safe and ready for mass production, you can bet that there would be people who thanked God instead of the scientists who developed it.
But maybe you should also thank fengshui.
Because fengshui decides the fate of the world, not Neo or Donald Trump.
S’pore ‘Fengshui Master’ Told People to Gather Together
The name “Siew Li” might sound like the name of many of your friends, but it’s different if you know Master SiewLi.
According to her website, Master SiewLi is a “Singapore’s leading Bazi and Fengshui master, and has been practising since 1983.”
Master SiewLi isn’t your typical fengshui master who practise somewhere in a shop in Chinatown; she’s so tech-savvy, she even has an online consultation, whereby you can make payment with PayNow.
Nothing wrong with people believing in a faith whereby the location of your door determines your health, but the problem is this video:
In the video published on 12 March 2020, she gave advice on what to do during this COVID-19 outbreak period.
It’d have been perfectly okay if the master told us to put a pail of water in front of our door, but unfortunately, one of her advices stood out.
According to her prediction, the peak of the virus would in February and March, and on April, it will start to “come down”, and by June, everything would be back to normal.
And she said, “We have to gather everyone… we have to spend more time with people around us, whether it’s your family, your spouse, your children, even your bosses, you know your peers, to discuss what you want to do in the future.”
That, of course, is problematic. I can’t even see my boss now. And Ah Gong is telling us not to spend time with anyone at all.
Fundamentals of Fengshui Apparently Says The Same Thing
Apparent, it seems like Master Siewli is merely following the advice of the fundamentals of fengshui.
However, of course, given that fortune telling has the power to create self-fulfilling prophecies that would have repercussions on society, it’s always best to believe in science.
The video has garnered over 31k views so far and is still live on YouTube.
