Chinese New Year (CNY) is just around the corner. It is a good time to join in the revelry. It is also a good time to learn why our forefathers and mothers did what they did whenever CNY came around.

It is no secret that Culture Practices are fast fading. Clans and societies, huay kuans, associations and clubs are doing all that they can to preserve our culture and heritage. But, have we?

Most people all over the world also know that we, Asians are a superstitious lot. So, why are memberships at these places fading? Having said that, it is good to know that some practices are still being kept and done over the decades.

Today, we’ll go through some or if possible, most of them. We’ll explore the meaning of all the rites, foods and fruits, kept, and eaten during CNY. We’ll also discuss why we still buy and use all these red packets and for some, it is mandatory to bank in money at the bank on some auspicious days.

If you are a foreigner (or a visiting tourist), you should really come on this tour. This tour is suitable for the family. Together, we’ll go through the list of things to do for all 15 days of Chinese New Year.

Bring your children, especially the youth – so that they know why we old folks do what we do. This is a colourful, happy morning walking tour.

Meet me at Chinatown MRT, 9am on Thurs, 8th Feb 2024. Take Exit A and meet me near the ATMs next to the restrooms. Bring your MRT card, because we’ll be taking the train from Chinatown to Albert Street (Bugis MRT).
