Kongsi Kongsi

Sorry for the long break as I am and still is swarm with work. I know it's no excuse as everyone else is busy. Here are some pics to share from the few 'Kongsi(s)' that has a great big celebration during the last chinese new year. It was really festive and load and loads of presentations were going on all at the same time. Went there with my buddy Ray and i think he too had a great time feasting on the street food and snapping shots at the models, hehe!

7) Dunno what Kongsi (i think it was Cheah). This scene looks like it's taken from a kungfu movie.

I wanted to go to Khoo Kongsi to snap photos also, but need to wait for the right time :P. Btw, the last picture, looks eerie.

Need to wait for them to have celebration then it's worth to go. Yes it was quite scary coz no one around during that time.
