Happy Chinese New Year...

"Dong dong dong Chiang"

"Chai Shen Dao"

A pretty familiar sound to hear as one walks around the streets of KL, and through big speakers inside shopping malls, people are gearing up for the start of the Lunar New Year, which is in 2 days time. Employees are taking leave to go back hometown/holiday, businesses are seeing profits as Malaysian are well known for last minute shopping, roads leading out of the city will be jammed, sumptuous meals are being served in restaurants(not to mention the exorbitant price of some)… certainly, the joyous festive mood can be seen all around the place, with decorations being put in place in offices, malls, and even in one’s own house, with loud music blasting off from gigantic speakers located at strategic locations on the streets, with millions of greeting cards being sent to friends and relatives… It seemed to me that the New Year had already started =P

I want to wish all my friends, and of course You who are reading this a very prosperous and Happy Lunar New Year…

"Long Ma Jing Shen, Ma Dao Gong Cheng, Xin Xiang Shi Cheng…"
