Dear Anon,

1. The word "Hai" refers to the term " Water "

2. If it is a dragon, the word behind the sculpture should instead be " LONG " or dragon

3. For the word " SU " Chinese characters or words close to it. So, here, it can mean many things.

What is the relationship of the Serpent and Dragon in Chinese beliefs?

It is said that in Chinese folk lore, after 500 years of exisitence a SEA SERPENT transform and becomes a SCALY Dragon.

Another transformation is after 1000 years when this SCALY Dragon becomes a horned Dragon.

Again after another 1000 years, it becomes a Dragon with wings.

In my opinion, your figure has this saying:

"Encourage one to be diligent"

*JOKE* Not sure, if this is an implication for you!

When you next meet your family member - *JOKE* Do ask him/her - Are u trying to encourage me to be more hardworking? Huh?

You can perhaps - tease your relative about it. But do remember ...Erh.. Don't EVER quote my name! *JOKE*

This is like imitating the Serpent who is striving to become a Dragon!

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
