CEBU, Philippines – A number of the metro's hotels and resorts celebrated the Chinese New Year - ushering in the Year of the Wooden Sheep with revered traditions and with good company, good wishes and good cheer.

Dr. Tan also shared insights into personal and business relationships and finances for each Chinese zodiac sign for this year, discussing how the proper and improper use of numbers and colors can affect the flow of positive energy in the home or place of business. He pointed out how the overall design of 32 Sanson by Rockwell, its cadastral layout and landscapes, are guided by the elements of good feng shui, citing the development project as an example of how harmonious feng shui can invite good fortune and luck into a community.
