A colorful night sky

The crackle, whizz, burst, fizz, whistle, whoosh, bang, flash, sputter ... continue for 30 minutes at 12 midnight along the Melaka River spreading to the north and the south.

Chinese people usher in the Year Of The Monkey in great hopes that the active monkey is able to bring abundance of prosperity and wealth.

Earlier, they gathered around tables with families for a reunion dinner.

合家平安
心想事成
新年快乐
万事如意

A happy family is life's greatest treasure

金福欢聚
皆大欢喜
