Chinese New Year Lohei Gathering
We held our Chinese New Year Lohei gathering on Saturday, 28 February 2026, with around 30 members and friends joining us. Due to the strong turnout, we had two Lohei sessions 90 minutes apart.
A special highlight this year was Yong Kiat, who read out traditional Chinese verses to usher in good fortune, prosperity, and good health for our group and customers. The atmosphere was warm, festive, and full of positive energy.
