Good to know that, I have seen video of young Muslim lady performing the lion dance, that is so cool. Malaysia Boleh!

This brought back wonderful memories for me of my first Chinese New Year in Malaysia. Being the most European member of my husband's family and being welcomed into the extended family's home for Chinese New Year, I was very overwhelmed and emotional. They welcomed me with such love and kindness and were so happy to explain the meanings behind all the different foods and traditions. The tossing of the Yee Sang salad is one of my favourite parts of the celebration and still is now 20 years later.

Malaysians celebrate Chinese New Year like nowhere else, partly because of the weather - always hot. So everyone goes out a lot to family on first day, then relatives and friends. Because of 2 full public holidays and maybe more because of weekends. Many Chinese Employers will close for more days - once a year. Most festive and celebratory.

Maaf ya mas, masyarakat tiongkok pun warga malaysia juga dan sebahagian daripada identitas malaysia. Malaysia terdiri drpd masyarakat yang pelbagai dan setiap masyarakat wajar diberikan perhatian. Mungkin ini berbeda jika dibandingkan dgn Indonesia. Tidak sempurna la Malaysia jika identitas masyarakat India dan tiongkok disembunyikan dari mata orang bule kerana masyakat ini juga turut membentuk identitas, budaya dan pembangunan Malaysia. Tidak mungkin hanya kerana satu video ni mas terus menghakimi Malaysia mengagungkan budaya luar daripada peribumi. Banyak video yang lain menunjukkan sisi Malaysia yang berbeda. Kami meraikan kepelbagaian. Lagipun, video ni dirakam ketika perayaan imlek. Mana mungkin mereka akan melawat rumah orang peribumi yang tidak menyambut imlek. Perayaan imlek sangat besar di Malaysia dan unik jika dibandingkan dgn masyarakat tiongkok dari negara lain. Tidak salah jika orang bule mahu belajar budaya masyarakat tiongkok di Malaysia. Harap info ini bermanfaat ya mas.
