Keong hee huat chye! (Happy Hokkien New Year)

[HIDDEN]

More Lion dances and fire crackers, tomorrow it's Hokkien new year!
The folk tale has it that the Hokkiens escaped mistreatment by ruthless
army in ancient China by seeking refuge in a sugarcane plantation. They
emerged unharmed on the 8th day of Chinese New Year. The birthday of
the Jade Emperor. Hence the New Year of Hokkiens.
Hokkien New Year is celebrated widely in Penang. The Hokkien community in
Chew Jetty is celebrating this year's Thni Kong Seh in a grand scale. Over 30 long
tables of food and fruits, big bottles of cognac and trays, baskets, and sugarcane stalks.
