On Chinese New Year's Eve, had dinner with all the Singaporeans at this restaurant named Fugu operated by a HongKong couple. This was the first time all the Singaporeans gathered together.
On New Year's Day itself, many Asians gathered together to have a potluck session. It was only then that I got to know that Koreans and Japanese use the Lunar Calendar as well, and Koreans celebrate the same new year! "Sei hei Poot, Mani pardi Seiyo!" means "new year luck, many please take". There was people from HongKong, Korea, China, Japan and of course Singapore.
