And why did you go to Singkawang? What does this have to do with the Chinese New Year? I went to Singkawang because the city accommodates one of the biggest Chinese communities in Indonesia and is therefore well known for its big public events during Chinese New Year. Since I have been to Singkawang towards the end of the Chinese New Years celebrations I could assist to a big parade. For this special event people from all over Indonesia would come to Singkawang.
