Would it be scary if you feel there is something behind / beside you where you can't even see it with your pair of eyes? Would you giggle when an object in front of you spin like wheels with no reasons at all?
Explore the Fest from HK to KCH2006 is special because there are
2 hungry ghost festival this year; or
intercalary year. We consume these as double festival and
"friends from other world" is quite happy with it because they could
receive dual offerings from their relatives. This special year only happen once in 38 years. For more info, click
HERE (in chinese).
The show,
Weird talk (怪谈) has attracted me. I am very proud that
TVB Crew Leung Ka Kei (梁嘉琪) made a visit to
Kuching, Sarawak and took snapshots / videos of our local hungry ghost festival, on how we celebrate, together with "friends from another world". Like I promise, this is truly amazing on how the chinese celebrate this special day traditionally. As a Catholic today (once a buddhism), who is keen of knowing weird stuff around, souls, unverise etc; I proudly present you this video (after edited for main part).
In this video, you can see how Kuching's Chinese celebrate this day of event. (How Xia Xue in a part where everyone is grabbing the lucky numbers for free presents offering to the souls). Yieks~~~ And the present is in a HAT shape. But guess what? My shop also participate in this event by giving away the present offerings. I would say most of the present came from
India Street (majority) and some from other company's from matang, green road, tabuan jaya etc. Another scene you can see how the manager of
Tsui Hua Lou @ Song Tian Chok Road celebrating the ritual offerings.
Then after that, they went
ATAP Kay(Carpenter Street) and visited the temple where everyone grabbed for the free offerings as mentioned above. Next week, I am gonna bring you the crew into the forest in search of
JIN from a thousand year's tree. =.=; then after that into the haunted house and a few snaps on ghost appeared in the camera (@ taiwan). =D
