Kuala Lumpur – GONG XI FA CAI!!!!
The new year of the Chinese Calendar starts with the new moon in the night from the 2nd to 3rd of February 2011. Traditionally in Malaysia the first and the second day are public holidays whereas the celebrations start already on the new years evening and go on till the 15th day of the new year. 2011 is the year of the Golden Rabbit. Many companies closes at least for one week, due to an accumulation of public holidays (1st of February is Federal Territory Day) some companies shut down their operation for almost 2 weeks.
