He is holding a couplet that read zhao cai jin bao which means attracts/usher in money and valuables. Now I wish the God of Fortune will visit me. :)
Why are these people sitting here? If you find this place familar, yes, it is the floating platform used during the national day celebration You can find another photo of it in my previous post in here. You have to return to visit to see why these people are sitting here.
Now I am stuck in this queue but not very long, the whole area is very big so the queue moves very fast. As the floating platform is on top of the Singapore River, the breeze from the sea made the whole place cooling and not stuffy. You have to return to see if it is worth the queue, I have so many beautiful photos of the Singapore River Hongbao Show.

Hopefully you will get a fortune as big as the God.
I always find color and festivity here!
O! Giant God of Fortune, bless us all!
Beautiful festival shots!
I never knew why red was so important. We have a ban on firecrackers here in New York state, but other states do allow them so people just travel to another state to get them especially for the 4th of July or Independence Day. My cats go and hide in the closet on that day from all the noise of fireworks. I want to thank you for visiting my blog and I enjoy my visits to your blog. I see you have two teenagers. I am older, my daughter just had her 30th birthday last week. I guess that means I am very old now. LOL... Michelle
