Bidders queueing up outside the road transport department
The licence plates for the Federal Territory begin with the letter W. At this present period, the letters are WWW and this has seen many people, especially the Chinese, bidding for the car registration numbers with these letters. Why is this so? Firstly, computer enthusiasts would associate it with the World Wide Wen. For the Chinese, the “WWW” series is popular because the surname Wong or Wang rhymes with “prosperity” and “emperor” in Chinese. Ah! We must not forget that Wang in the Malay Language means Money. Wah! So auspicious. No wonder so many people are going for this series.
Here are two related news articles on the WWW series.
