Here is an interview detikFinance with Fengshui consultant John Cokrowibowo better known as the Temperature Yo, to detikFinance, last weekend when met at his office, in Mangga Dua Square, Jakarta.

What is the meaning of the water dragon year in 2012?

The dragon zodiac that has not been seen of the 12 zodiac of all people. If zodiac dragon in the most difficult to predict, a lot of bad than good. This is exacerbated this year if this year the water dragon year, there will be major flooding will occur in January 2012 and December 2012, a year flood will occur.

Year of the dragon special meaning today?

Nagar water is a green dragon, the dragon is ferocious, vicious dragon, dragon with no mercy. Specifically related to the economic meaning, that the enemy is a metal dragon. So the businesses associated with the metal element of business will fall. As gold prices will reach Rp 650,000 to Rp 1 million per gram of it would happen in 2012.

Besides car prices will soar this year, because the metal element. This is because the metal is ‘fear’ with water.

Most business seen from the weak economy by the floods and long dry season, the plants and crops will increase the price, because demand is less plentiful supply, there will be a food crisis. The most feared any pair of sea water, so that fish prices will rise.

Can you an example of a phenomenon that will occur in the water dragon?

Seen again from the side of the dragon, that dragon is a creation of China, although in some cultures there, but the outline of the Chinese people who made the dragon, it will boom in 2012 was China’s products, such as electric motors, energy efficient cars from China would flood many countries, including fruit and plastics were from China, including fabric. Year 2011 has seen many factories closed as factory clothing, bags, and bucket factory was closed.

Then what business would not benefit this year from Fengshui glasses?

So metals, agricultural products, it’s not earth elements close to the water, then the land will be destroyed because most of the water, the metal will be destroyed by water, cloth and paper will be destroyed by water. Metallic elements will be destroyed by the water element.

But the only metal that can be lucky in 2012 with the fire element, such as electronics, such as power plants, electricity generation business people must be rich.

Was not that the fire was ‘lost’ with water?

It is precisely the balance of yin and yang, this year’s business associated with the fire is pretty restaurant business will not fall. The person who opened the restaurant will run, electronics, electricity will run everything.

If heavy business this year what?

The heavy crops, water, paper, including the water business, such as bottled beverage plant will be destroyed will fall because the water so the water met  or unlucky (bad).

This year zodiac whichever category chiong?

Namely goats, dogs and buffalo, as SBY and Barack Obama also chiong, for 3 years. Year 2012 is the largest existing chiong most unlucky buffalo. Which rises this year are rats, snakes, rabbits and dragons.

Then what are you related to economic penerawang year of the dragon?

When viewed economic development in 2012 the price of gold will reach Rp 650,000 to Rp 1 million (per gram), a premium price to Rp 6000, Pertamax prices can be up to Rp 10,000 due to rising oil prices. Then land prices could double as gold prices rose.

When land prices go up high, what about the prospect of property in the year of the dragon?

I am now Fengshui some agency, property consultants such as the prices are usually sold USD 1.8 billion could be sold at Rp 4 billion, everyone shop, shop selling 3,000 units a month out. Sell ​​shop to shake the unit, everyone scrambling investment, it sold the house again, because who have money to buy all, rather than the flowers do not exist.

So the property including the rise this year?

So the ride was in addition to earlier is the food business, the property will go up, but make no mistake a few (developers) property would have difficulty because they had received the money first (DP), if prices have gone up all the building materials, including cement, it will be a headache as well .

From the hong shui, a nice home in 2012 this is overlooking the East and South. This is because the dragon out of the North, people looking for her all the South East and South.

Why do people sell property more expensive USD 10 million compared to facing south overlooking the north? I see my own laugh, because more people are looking for all the South, try to check it. South is more expensive USD 10-20 million it definitely, everyonesouth, north it did not sell for 2012. Some of these are people of South

To be afraid of is, with increasingly high property prices, the high price of gold, that is where the increasing social inequality, the less security. Grassroots people want to have a house not able to eat more and not capable of so much evil presence.

When viewed the property in 2012, developers are afraid to sell, developers fear the price of land and building prices keep rising. As the Supreme Sedayu after Green Lake City, with the consideration they keep the price of first-year building first saw this 2012 trip.

From various calculations before, if people want to start a business in the year of the dragon is how?

People do business that depends on the fate, there is a chance. That’s how the business opportunities there are close to someone and give them opportunities and hard work, both are important. There are also elements of hockey, how they make money like a good zodiac-zodiac earlier.

For zodiac-zodiac that was not good enough like dogs, buffalo, if the business would there still be a chance this year?

Better still do not, or they partner with a zodiac with a person who fashion good.

So business is booming year of the dragon?

All persons who conduct business related to the element of fire, all in demand. Electronics and restaurants. Electronics demand, as people who trade the HP electronic products China was in demand, rather than not be able to buy a BB, which is not able to better choose to buy a Chinese-made IDR 300,000 HP that can surf all. Finally someone who sells HP China sold really.

What about the stock market broke down?

If shares of the cycle is always the number 8, for example, the fall of 1998 exchanges, in 2008 and in 2018, 2005 there was a decrease over 2008 but fell again. Indeed, for the stock to market in Indonesia has always fallen  8. Enough to fall in 2012 but will tumble further in 2018.

Condition 2012 macro, from the cycle of Fengshui, resembling the conditions of the year when you?

This year will be more like 2008, if 1998 was not crashed once, but if the 2008 collapse of the entire world economy. Fuel will definitely go up.

The conclusion?

Year of the dragon can not read it, would collapse economic order, the order states, political problems. This year’s pattern of gray can not be touched too much, although after all the dragon needed by people, then there is the term dragon head line or lines of business. Now this is the year 2012 the emergence of the water dragon’s head, then the economy could be good if the year then next year would be nice, but if this year is poor, the next 11 years will continue to bad economy.

Chinese Prime Minister Wen Jiabao expressed readiness to lend U.S. $ 10 billion or about Rp 850 trillion to ASEAN to assist infrastructure development.

This announcement comes as China meeting with ASEAN leaders in Bali. China also in 2009 had provided loans amounting to U.S. $ 15 billion to ASEAN.

“In 2009, China has helped the construction of 50 infrastructure projects in almost all member countries of ASEAN,” Wen said as quoted by AFP on Saturday (19/11/2011).

Wen wants to China and 10 ASEAN members to strengthen their cooperation in the financial sector, including encouraging the use of the yuan in trade in ASEAN.

Indeed, China is currently being ambitious for the yuan could become a global currency to beat the U.S. dollar.

“China-ASEAN relations have a solid base and great potential and has a promising future,” Wen said. He pledged China will become neighbors, friends, and a good partner.

“We will work together with you (ASEAN) to implement various agreements and achieve mutual benefits for society, and contribute to peace and prosperity in the region,” Wen said.

Wen also said it has established a fund 3 billion yuan (U.S. $ 470 million) for maritime cooperation in ASEAN covering marine research, navigation, and suppression of crime.

Empirical evidence of the existence of barter in modern times even this I wrote in my previous article entitled “Equity Dinar Exchange?”; And even powerful nations of the world is currently preparing a sophisticated barter system to facilitate trade between them without having to depend on the currency particular, for this see my other writings such as “China Preparing to Lead the World Trade?.

2 modern barter system that I introduced in the writings mentioned above, both can be effective when you can create – a condition that is thousands of years ago a problem – the condition of coincidence of wants.

With data processing technology that can work very fast and cheap, as now, the coincidence of wants can be met from a large number of party participants barter? not limited to only 2 parties like thousands of years ago. From here the techniques of modern barter later called Multileg Barter Exchange or expand.

With the developments of modern commerce; vision Dinar movement we are not only limited to providing Dinar needed by the community and make the Dinar as a driver of the real sector? but we also continue to conduct research and development associated with trade in general.

In connection with the pioneering modern barter in this example, we cooperate with several parties are now studying it and preparing it in a project that we call IndoBarter Project? that we should not miss from China, India, Brazil, Russia, Germany, etc. in terms of global trade that may someday no longer will rely on the existence of a world financial system is increasingly fragile.

In 1982 there is a movie with a backdrop of World War II, titled Sophie? S Choice. The film won many trophies this, described the experience of a mother (Sophie) with two children? male (Jan) and female (Eva)? who was arrested by enemy soldiers. The mother was given an offer by an enemy soldier, one of his son would be killed? but the mother was told to choose which one. If he does not want to vote? then both will be killed.

The mother can not choose, but should choose? then his son was chosen in January to stay alive and her daughter Eva who killed the enemy. An extremely difficult choice?  rest of his life so that this can only regret the decision to take.

Sophie’s Choice

The title of this film is so famous that the term Sophie?’s Choice became a new term to describe that moment when we are faced with an unpleasant condition that the same? same as the term? we know it.

This term-was later used by observers to describe the difficulties Dollar to choose between maintaining the dollar as reserve currency, or replace it with another currency that is not yet known what form.

Like China for example, they know the U.S. $ will collapse? but if he has to do something drastic to replace U.S. $ with another currency? then a very large foreign exchange reserves, its value will be destroyed along with the destruction of the value of U.S. $. Similarly, export it to America will collapse along with the collapse of the American economy.

Then do not do something? Not also an option. When the U.S. $ slow down in value? China declined slowly but surely also the competitiveness of its exports to America, and foreign exchange accumulated in the U.S. $ has also continued to erode in value.

Faced with such a dilemma situation, China is doing a smart thing to secretly increase its gold reserves and its people-are encouraged to secure their assets in gold. Last week China also made a step which is full of mystery with a widening range in price between the yuan exchange rate with U.S. $ – some observers interpret this as a smart move slowly next to China to prepare a replacement U.S. $.

A similar step is also done by Russia in the same week Russia announced its intention to lead the new regime in terms of world reserve currency. Russia to start by adding a dollar Australian dollar Cananda and reserve currency in the basket of his, so not only depend on U.S. Dollars.

Step secretly increase gold reserves by the Central Bank also finally revealed, at least it recognized China last year which revealed that gold reserves had to be double compared to the previous public data. Similarly, Saudia Arabia, which last week finally acknowledged also silent-silence measures that have been central bank gold reserves to raise her to be 2x the reserves that had been publicly known.

UBS-LogoYang surprising is the result of a survey conducted by UBS to the leaders of the Central Banks around the world, more than half turned out to argue that the dominance of U.S. $ as reserve currency will not survive until the coming quarter century or more precisely the year 2035.

So what instead? Some argue instead is the Asian country’s currency (presumably China?), Some have argued the Euro, but the biggest is that the majority opinion that gold was the currency’s replacement.

Maybe this is the cause, although the current gold corner? Central Bank of the world but secretly  to also buy back the gold. After two decades as net sellers; now they become net buyers.

What is the meaning of this all true? Truth of Islam that the currency is the dinar or dirham fair as revealed by Imam Ghazali? sooner or later be proven again in modern times. We do not have to face the situation very difficult choice like Sophie? S Coice above; options that already exist in the two directions we? and our great scholars nor has revealed the truth.

Buy gold for everyone

Why buy gold
Are you aware of the uses of gold, you understand now that gold demand will only increase into the future. That while supply-logically, will not increase and even seems to decline. Who looks for a chart of gold price in recent years will see a very nice upward trend. Moreover, it is absolutely a mistake on this increase to conceive, it is not only the value of gold rises, it is above the value of money down! While several payment the ravages of time have not passed, thousands of years gold has a great currency. Gold is known for its stable value and is an outcome in these turbulent times. The extreme inflation in Zimbabwe for example, led to people there no longer accept the local currency, only gold and silver. Money can be reprinted, not gold. Recently the Chinese government advised its citizens to save gold, because they provide where the dollar can go. Since our euro much history, we can also questioning the allocated strength of our currency. When the monetary system to collapse (unlikely) we fall back on gold and silver. Central banks such as Brazil, China and Russia in recent years working to increase their gold reserves and thus strengthen their financial position relative to the west.
