BDP Annual Dinner & Dance - Dec 2007

The last day of Chinese Lunar New Year , 21 Feb 2008, proved to be an auspicious date as our dear colleague, Lee Yong Eng, took the first step in the matrimony journey to legally tie the knot with his loved one, Ms Samantha at Registrar of Marriage (ROM).

Chinese Lunar New Year 2008 -"Lo He"

CLSC held its first Chinese Lunar New Year "Lo he" on last day of chinese new year on 21 February 2008 (Thurs). It is a much cherised tradition by most Chinese in Singapore during the Chinese Lunar New Year. Friends and colleagues, customers and vendors, and family members would gather during this auspicious calendar period at a round table to celebrate the Lunar New Year, strenghten bonds and relationship, and bless one another. As they lift up the "Yu Sheng" high up in the air with the chopsticks in their hand, they would make known their wishes to everyone for the year before tossing them down onto the plate. The rythmic motions are repeated until everyone had listed their wishes.

Some of the wishes are as follows:-

1. Strike TOTO (SGD $10 million) in the upcoming draw.

2. Have children for those who are recently married and more children for those that already had children

3. Big Bonus Payout

4. Less document error & more productive.

5. Good health etcs

Below are some of the pics that were taken during the Lo he session @ BDP Keppel office for your enjoyment.
