Meanings/Interpretation

In the Chinese culture, "168" is regarded as a highly successful number. In Cantonese, "168," read "yut look baat," which sounds similar to "a road of good fortune." This belief has inspired many Chinese to find ways of embedding this number in any possible way, including house numbers, phone numbers, and vehicle license plates.
