Happy Piggy New Year

It's the first day of Chinese New Year. This year is the Year of the Boar/Pig/Khinzir/Babi according to the Chinese zodiac. Oink Oink!

We attended the Sunday Service at the Keningau Methodist Church this morning. Most of the congregation, including me and my loupo, came dressed in red. Ada 'ong' ma. The pastor's family rushed down to KK after the service to catch a flight to Sibu. For your information, many of the Methodist members are FooChows (those shrewd fellas) from Sibu or Setiawan.

After that we went from house to house for food and more food. It the past when I was in Seremban, the main attraction was the Barbeque Dried Pork. That stuff is hard to come by here in interior Sabah. Instead, we had lots of home-made cookies, keropoks, and durians. Just when I thought my ang-pao supply has been terminated, heck no, I received 5 of those red goodies this morning. Read again, that's FIVE.


'Pigs are friends, not food.'

Happy Chinese New Year and may you have a blessed year ahead.
