“Kung hei fat choi!”
You would usually encounter this specific greeting during the month of February—often before the day of love, Valentine’s Day. You may even recall another greeting, “Gōng xǐ fā cái!”, that is used interchangeably with the greeting above. Aside from hearing these phrases, your eyes would be bombarded with the color red—from the tapestries hanging around your local shopping malls, to the paper lanterns that illuminate the surroundings with an oriental touch, to—probably one of your favorites—the ang paos that (hopefully) contain crisp blue or yellow bills. It’s Chinese New Year!
The Heart and Sound of Elesina
There’s many special things about local school fairs—and one of them, in particular, is perhaps how they give performers the opportunity to entertain, and fairgoers the chance to finally see or discover more local talent.
