    Lol....lets 'nyirup' 'to the Horses'!!! Hahaha! The Year of the Rabbit 兔年 symbolizes longevity, positivity, auspiciousness, wittiness, quick change (new & unsettled), buzy (energy draining), cautiousness, cleverness and deftness...lots of hopping this year. This new year people expect prosperity, harmony and hope of bring good fortunes.

    The purpose of giving 'ang pao' (in hokkien dialect) or 'hung pao' (in mandarin dialect) is a monetary gift given during holidays or for special occasions such as a wedding, a graduation, or the birth of a baby. A symbol of luck, life and happiness, given as tokens of good wishes (not about the amount of cash content inside it) during these auspicious occasions in the Chinese community. House visiting or 'open house' is traditionally & culture event, where members of families travels back home to meet their family and to visit relatives and friends, a practice known as 'new-year visits'. The most important event in the Chinese New Year is at the eve night where everyone gathers and have a 'Happy' BIG Feast, called 'Reunion Dinner'. Gong Xi Fah Chai to you Nick & family.

    Good video, I like your channel, you seem very happy there. I would really like to move to KL, but I don't have the financial requirements. I can easily meet the requirements for Sarawak, Kuching. Is Kuching as clean and quiet as KL ? Is Kuching a walkable city ? Are there apartments in an area that would be conducive to walking for shopping of all types ?

    • @Kuching001
      @Kuching001 Рік тому +1

      Kuching is not busy and hectic like KL and cost of living is lower. Kuching is cleaner than KL as it is not that big. Moving around is within 25 minutes by car max. There are many condominium with shopping below or around.

      Hi! Kuching is a walkeable city, it's clean and the people are very friendly. There are restaurants and coffeeshops everywhere. You'll easily find an apartment to rent/buy too!
