Chinese New Year



Some countries in the world such as Thailand have two times of New Year. First time is New Year festival in the last day of last month of every year. These festivals most of people in the world was known it and has a different style celebrate in this festival. Second tome is Chinese New Year festival. This festival will be known only in China and in country that has Chinese people in there. Chinese tradition was known in much country because present human was received from their ancestor.
In Chinese New Year festival Chinese people or foreigner that their ancestor was Chinese people will respect their ancestor and a goddess. They will respect by 3 kinds of food such as pork, duck, chicken, fish, and octopus etc. And 5 kinds of fruit such as banana, orange, grape, mango, and apple etc. They respect their ancestor and a goddess because they believe that their ancestor and a goddess will protect them from bad things. And they will have a better live. In this festival a cousin has a meeting to enjoy together and have some delicious food same a small party. An adult will give money to children because it is Chinese tradition. And somebody gave money or presents to a police because they know that a police was very tired to do their duty. And they should to receive something for a reward of their duty.
In Thailand every year we have a Chinese New Year celebrate at “China Town Thailand” or we know it in name “Yao Wa Ratch”. Because “Yao Wa Ratch” is a biggest place that has Chinese people in there. “ Yao Wa Ratch” is a place that has everything about Chinese in there. And my family business was in “Yao Wa Racht” too. Usually every year “Yao Wa Racht” has a big ceremony about Chinese New Year festival. But this year “Yao Wa Racht” does not has a ceremony about Chinese New Year because the princess of Thailand was died on 2 January 2008. She was died because she has a cancer. She is an older sister of King of Thailand. So Thailand government has an order to cancel a party for100 days to respect her. Thai people love her very much because she does a lot of things for every class of Thai people.
A day before Chinese New Year day is a pay day. In today people will buy everything for next day for respect their ancestor and a goddess. A day after Chinese New Year day an adult will give money for their children, nephew, and niece. We know it in name “Ang Pao” They will put money in a red case or pink case. Because they believe that red color or pink color is a lucky color.
Chinese New Year was very popular in Thailand. Because in Thailand has a lot of Chinese people. Chinese people were stayed in the most of states in Thailand.
