Is the 15th day of Chinese New Year and the hokkien community in Labuan here celebrate the last night of Chinese new year every year and there are 4 stations all together to go roundabout at sungai keling here in Labuan. Actually the purpose for this celebration is to have all the Temple's god's to make a visit to the four designated stations to guard this place and do blessings.
I myself also tooked part to carry the temple god to ward off bad riddens as in their beliefs. Usually this celebration always starts at 5.30pm on the 15th day evening of CNY until they completed all the 4 stations and finished when the god's are to be brought back to the Chinese temples altars back.
Is an exciting event done by the community people here in Labuan sungai keling as there are helping each other to celebrate this every year that symbolize to be united and work together as one. The decorations are all prepared by the nearby family members that is staying near by the stations. Is not an easy task for them too as I also have a friend who has to take part of the decorations and the offerings to prepare for the event of Chap Goh mei every year.
