CNY’s best and worst bits revealed
Chan Siew Boon
Head of Digital Imaging
Best things about CNY?
“1) Going back to my
hometown: Ipoh, Malaysia.
2) Eating a lot of traditional
local delicacies.
3) Rest and relaxation,
because it’s a public holiday.”
What does Chinese New
Year mean to you?
“Family gatherings. There’s
nothing better than spending
well-deserved quality time
with my loved ones.”
Ivy Goh
Senior Digital Imaging Artist
Kenneth Ong
Contributor
Eileen Chia
Head of Product & Partnerships –
Women’s Network
Best things about CNY?
“1) Catching up with family
and extended family members.
2) Dressing up my boys in
matchy-matchy auspicious
outfits (much to their dismay).
3) Two words: Pineapple tarts!”
What do you hope relatives
will not ask you this year?
“If we are going to try for a girl,
or kid number four (we already
have three boys!)”
Best things about Chinese New Year?
“1) Gambling.
2) Drinking.
3) Flirting with eligible bachelorettes.”
What does Chinese New Year mean to you?
“Bonding with family – it’s also a time to
catch up with friends. We’re always so busy
working throughout the year but during CNY, everyone’s got a
day off so it’s an opportune time to reunite and reconnect.”

“There’s nothing in particular
that I hope they won’t ask

relatives. They can ask me
anything at all.”
Shireen Ho
Campaign Manager
Best things about CNY?

parents are amazing cooks, so I
look forward to stuffing my face!”
What do you hope relatives wil
not ask you this year?
“When I’m going to start planning
for a second baby. Every year
since my daughter was born
they’ll predictably ask me this, so I
have a standard answer ready for
all those curious relatives!”
