Chinese New Year and Field Trip to Singkawang

Chinese New Year and Field Trip to Singkawang
Carina with a red lantern in Singkawang

Therefore the people on top of the thrones did not feel any pain when their skin was pierced. Unfortunately I could not find out much more about this strange event. I would like to know why people even want to carry their ancestors ghosts through the city. I also wonder about how those people will get rid of the ghosts again, once the event is over.

I was surprised to learn, that even in Indonesia there are many people who celebrate Chinese New Year. In order to write this article I did some research on the Internet as well as asking my Indonesian friends about it. For me it has been a very interesting topic and I hope that other people might also learn something they did not know before about this big event from my article. * (Writer is an internship student in Pontianak from Hamburg University)
