Hi, men it is not called Chinese New Year. It is called Lunar New Year. It is also for many countries like Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, South Korea and North Korea. If you says CHINESE new year, you will upset many people seen this vedio. Be careful.
ofc it’s Chinese New Year, you celebrate one festival doesn’t mean that festival is yours! Will you call Christmas Koreansmas cuz Koreans are celebrating it? Will you call it Japansmas cuz Japanese are celebrating it? Being called Chinese New Year doesn’t mean only Chinese people celebrate it, the same logic applies to Chinese characters used in Japanese. Will you call them Japanese characters?
I must admit that views are low-hanging fruit in Manila, no wonder Mergim stays there, albeit apparently the place is poverty stricken. Nevertheless BKK style of Chinese New Year is far better.
