    tanong ko lang

    what's the deal with plate numbers with 168? if you check the rules on vanity plates, the number 168 is specifically mentioned

    of course, the other numbers are those in triple digit (e.x. 111) or with zero in between two similar digits (e.x. 101)

    but 168?

    my plate ending is 168 (inherited) but i would love to trade this in for another plate ending with any number from 3 to 6

    mazdamazda is right, 168 is a chinese number combination meaning good luck.

    1 - 1 in chinese
    6 - road
    8 - prosper

    actually it is based on the pronounciation of the 3 characters kaya naging 168

    ganun ba?

    i am 1/4 chinese but it doesnt ring any bells or whistles for me. hindi na kami tinuruan ng chinese or even chinese tradition ng pure chinese na lola namin from my dad's side. i still have a lot of chinese family named relatives though, hehehe

    anyway, i would be very glad to trade this plate number with any tsikoteer here kung puede lang

    in cantonese, those numbers (168) sounds like the words BlueBimmer posted.
    to prosper all the way ang literal meaning nyan.
