During the British occupation, the English were amazed by the prosperity of the town. The name “Little Golden Town” simply doesn’t come easy. After much research they discovered that the dragon-shaped Taiso hill encircling the town was the force behind the success. It seems that they believed in “Feng Sui” as much as the Chinese do. Driven by hatred and jealousy, a plan was devised to destroy this force. So, in the name of the development, the 'head of the dragon' was demolished and a plantation estate was built right at the spot. To further ensure their position remain unchallenged, a pillar measuring a hundred feet was nailed into the 'backbone of the dragon'. This way, the vigour and vitality of the dragon is believed to be suppressed. If this is not enough, a police station was built at the abdomen of the dragon. According to ‘Feng Sui’ philosophy, a police station can exert a very strong force with which to curtail the power of the dragon.
