The Chinese visited the only Chinese temple in Mumbai which is the shrine of Kwan Tai Shek in Mazgaon. After the prayer ceremony held at midnight, there was the dragon dance enacted in the streets. It brings back memories of the grand parade in Kolkata's Chinatown.
This has been reported in timesofindia.indiatimes.com dated 28 January 2017.
Families follow the tradition of gifting red envelopes containing token sums of money to children and unmarried youngsters on new year's eve. Their numbers have gone down and the Chinese is no longer a close-knit community because many qualified youth do not want to run family owned restaurants, beauty parlours or dentist clinics. Instead, they prefer to migrate abroad to work or to study.
