Did you know? Chinese New Year is celebrated for 15 days, with each day having a unique significance. This event coincides with the Korean Lunar New Year known as Seollal and the Vietnamese Lunar New Year called Tet Nguyen Dan. Have a blessed and safe celebration, everyone! ❤️
Chinese New Year is now approaching and as we prepare to usher the Year of the Rat, I’m reminded of its significance to me personally - it signifies renewal, filial piety and families reuniting.
Never once I take this announcement lightly when I touch down at our airports “…kepada warganegara, selamat pulang ke tanah air.” Being abroad for so many years, it’s always an amazing feeling to hear that and to step foot back home into Malaysia - especially during the festivals.
Thank you & congratulations Malaysia Airports for making it even more meaningful to travellers commemorating the Lunar New Year with a month-long immersive festive campaign. I wish everyone safe travels and joyous days with family and friends during this festive period.

Chinese New Year, Lunar New Year, or Spring Festival is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. It is commonly called "Lunar New Year", because it is based on the lunisolar Chinese calendar. The festival traditionally begins on the first day of the first month (Chinese: 正月; pinyin: zhēng yuè) in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called Lantern Festival. Chinese New Year's Eve is known as chú xī. It literally means "Year-pass Eve".
Chinese New Year is the longest and most important festivity in the Chinese Lunar Calendar. The origin of Chinese New Year is itself centuries old and gains significance because of several myths and traditions. Ancient Chinese New Year is a reflection on how the people behaved and what they believed in the most.
Chinese New Year is celebrated in countries and territories with significant Han Chinese populations (Chinatowns), such as Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, Taiwan, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand. Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had influence on the new year celebrations of its geographic neighbors, as well as cultures with whom the Chinese have had extensive interaction. These include Koreans (Seollal), Tibetans and Bhutanese (Losar), Mongolians (Tsagaan Sar), Vietnamese (Tết), and the Japanese before 1873 (Oshogatsu). http://www.tigermuaythai.com
