The rabbit bows out for the mighty Water Dragon this year. The celebrations started well ahead with the Lion Dance troupe making the their visits and loud sounds of fire crackers despite the ban imposed by the government.
The outlook is said to be equal on both gains and challenges nevertheless the 15-day long festivity starts tomorrow leading to the Lantern Festival.
The highlights are of course the tradition of giving out Ang Pows (Red Packet) which is a monetary gift. Being one of the few Indian families in the middle of a large Chinese community, I receive a handful every year. Looking forward to a good holiday.
Gong Xi Fa Chai!
