Happy Chinese New Year - Year of the Rooster

Today is the 1st day of the Chinese Lunar Year, this year is the year of the Rooster. Here wishing all Chinese and those who celebrate the occasion, a very Happy Chinese New Year.

Not forgetting to collect the ang pows (or red packets) from the different banks to put money inside as gifts to distribute to family, relatives and children of friends.

This year I had the bags from a local bank to keep the angpows. The bag is so useful, it had different compartments, so I can keep different ang pows that contained different amount of money inside. The closer the relation of the giver and receiver will be bigger amount of money of gifts.

Singapore Chinatown Chinese New Year Street Light Up 2017

Last Saturday, I went to join in the fun to watch the Chinese New Year Street Light Up at Chinatown to user in the year of the Rooster. Time passes fast, Chinese New Year will be on 28th January 2017 and last for 15 days. There will be lots of programmes to watch in Chinatown during this period. For more information on the programmes, please view from the official website.

This year the Chinese New Year decoration of a big rooster looked so pretty especially at night.

There were so many people in Chinatown that night, I could hardly go near the stage to watch the performances. Best was the lighting of the firecrackers followed by fireworks. Watch the video below for the firecrackers and fireworks towards the end of the video.

Even South Bridge Road was beautifully decorated.
