Chinese construction and feng shui
To people of Chinese origin in Malaysia and elsewhere, feng shui is a combination of mystical beliefs, astrology, folklore and common sense that has a bearing on their daily lives. Evolving some 4000 years ago in China from the simple observation that people are affected, for good or ill, by their surroundings, feng shui advocates living in harmony with the earth's environment and its energy lines so that there is a proper balance between the forces of nature. Feng shui is now frequently applied in Malaysia to change and harmonize the environment, including the built environment, so that the quality of people's lives will be enhanced.
