To all Singaporeans, welcome to CNY 2009 己丑年 the Year of the Ox.
With the worldwide recession, this year CNY in Singapore is quiet and everyone tightening their belts. Even the decorations are greatly reduced and recycled.

Eversince the banning of fire-crackers, the only atmosphere of CNY is the lion dance!
