Halloh. We toured the Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion. This Chinese fellow rose from poverty to become a multi millionaire. He had this house built in the late 1800's with the help of Feng Shue (sp)? experts. He had seven wives. His will was written to include any children born up to nine months after his death. Male children two shares, female, one.
He was invloved in a project setting up an international banking network. He booked four first class tickets with a cruise line for himself and three associates. He was told that because he was Chinese, first class was forbidden. So he threatened to build his own cruise line. Four first class tickets arrived in the post. The name escapes my feeble mind, but the hotel that was so badly damaged in the attack in Mumbai was built by an Indian who was refused entry into a English hotel.
