Chinese Cultural Festival procession part 2

From BCF procession 2009

Sibu also has its own version of floats. It may not be as grand or decorated with lots of bright lights but their smiles more than make up for it. Lovely smiles indeed.

As I have mentioned before it is definitely a family affair which saw the participation of all age groups.

    Wowee!! Lovely pictures. It looks like there is a very active cultural life in your part of the world. Good to see so many young people involved in it too.

    What is the significance of the gold fish in one of the photos? Is it a symbol of something?

    I am afraid I have no answer to that question :)
    Thank you.

    The people of Sibu must be congratulated for the great show of support for the combined festivals!

    Well done!

    It does make an otherwise period of the year ‘more exciting’
