Topsy-Turvy FU [福倒(到)]
Nestled Ellipsis
To those unfamiliar with Chinese culture, the Chinese character “福” (which means happiness, good fortune and luck) is often posted upside down because the Chinese character for “upside down”, “倒” is a homonym of the Chinese character for “to arrive”, “到”.
So…
Upside down “福” = the arrival of happiness, good fortune and luck
As a typical Singaporean with the innate attribute of kiasuism (competitiveness) flowing through our veins, we must be doubly sure that the “福” is retained with us as long as possible. Hence, we created a pocket* for your “福” :-)
*Tip for the the pantang (superstitious) ones, you can try putting in your business associates name cards in here and the odds may just work in your favour. No harm trying, right?
