Ching Ming
For me, Ching Ming Festival is not only a day for remember our ancestors but also a day for a big family gathering beside Chinese New Year.
Last Sunday was a good day for Ching Ming. My whole family as well as all the relatives visited our ancestors graves. We brought a lot of prayer stuffs such as joss sticks, color papers, food, Chrysanthemum flowers and more. Food like roasted suckling pig, steamed chicken, fruits, biscuits, cakes, wine, tea were offered during the ceremony.
Let’s share with you all a joke that I heard from my aunties.
“Don’t buy car to us anymore. We already have a lot of cars in our house. You know we do not have money to pump petrol, to pay road tax and hire drivers. Burn more money for us.”
She dreamt that one of my ancestors telling her not to burn big car to him anymore this year. Every year we give him big car and his house already got many cars. But he does not have money to pump petrol and give road tax. Haha.. So this year, we bought many clothes and gave a lot of money to them.
Do you believe this? 
wuah roast pork, roast pork!
keeyit || I know you love to eat le
wow… you guys had roast pork also…
we only had a RM30 siew yoke
keeyit || Every year also got a big roasted pork.. about RM400.. One of my uncle sponsored one..
u know, now can burn them a petrol station. If they got no money to pump petrol, burn them a petrol station so that they got unlimited petrol and at the same time can earn money with it. wuahahahhaha..
keeyit || yeah hor.. good idea JYS.. haha.. then they can earn money by supplying the petrol for others..
I also went Ching Ming yesterday. But I didn’t take any photos. Does taking photo shows disrespect to ancestors? My family will certainly blow my head if I do so.
keeyit || We took photos every year as memories.. So is ok I think..
I don’t believe in burning anything
Only contribute to pollution, and pity those trees
(wah, all the tomatoes coming liao)
keeyit || Hahhaha.. you sure kena liao.. hahahha
LOL @ Jys comment! burn a petrol station hahah
was it sunny when you were there? the picture suggest the otherwise.
keeyit || Sunny day as I went there about 6am !
ha.. i took some photo too..
hm.. burn petrol station kakaka.. LOL !!..
keeyit || show us !
So colourful…money is still the best gift afterall eh?
keeyit || Yeah money is important for us and for them..
maybe i’ll go this friday also. need to check whether leave approved or not..
keeyit || oo.. should approve one la
Just burn them a whole army equipped with those kick-ass weaponry.
Then they can take over and rule….
How cool is that?
keeyit || wah.. want to do another empire
darnk!
was suppose to go back geh…
but because of something didnt go back~~
sob sob~~
keeyit || must go back one le.. hehe..
Whoa like that also can. Haha.
My family is now towards not burning much of these over these few years. I didn’t join for the Ching Ming this year. But normally what we have now is just simple dishes and pai pai. Not like got roast pork… which btw looks yummy…
keeyit || Not everyone treats that very important like Hokkien people pray..
Thumbs up to the suggestion on burning a gas station.
keeyit || Clap for JYS
Huh? Even there also got road tax and petrol?
keeyit || Haha.. not sure lol.. maybe.. haha
