Happy Chinese New Year!
Many Chinese families from all corners of the world are celebrating Chinese New Year this week. It's the year of the dog, and on the traditional Chinese calendar, the year is 4703 or 4704. In Malaysia, where 25% of the population is ethnic Chinese, one can hear the joyful sounds of New Year music playing in retail stores, people wearing red (color representing happiness and good fortune), new year lanterns hung in front of houses, fireworks, and lion dances on the streets. Being a highly tolerant country, individuals of other races and faiths in Malaysia share in the celebration.
Phan and I went to a local Buddhist temple today (NE Glisan & 167th Ave), as we did for last New Year. We wish everyone a great year ahead, with full of good health, prosperity, peace, and happiness!
