LITTLE FACTS ABOUT CHAP GOH MEH...
Chap Goh Meh or Tzap Goh Mei represents the fifteenth and the final day of Lunar New Year as celebrated by Chinese migrant communities.The term is from the Hokkien dialect and refers to the fifteenth day of the first month,which is the occassion of the first full moon of the year!
During this memorable day,you can't miss the tradition of enjoying the picturesque of the Full Moon and of course,throwing tangerins to the sea!It's purpose of throwing tangerins to sea is to let the bachelor/bachelorette in hope of finding their other halves as soon as possible.
