EDMWers seem to be on really bad terms with their relatives. But then again, some EDMWers hate just everyone else.

I look forward to CNY gathering with my relatives cos no one really ask those annoying questions. My cousins are also very nice people and we always have a good time catching up

I am glad I dun really have such annoying relatives
I agree. And yet all seem to be very afraid of dying alone and being found only when rotting.

Dread visiting wifey's siblings broken family that play acting like that they are a heypi family when the sister and ex hubby were officially divorced without their only daughter knowing but celebrate their new 2nd bto, under the former PRC sister who is a new citizen here.

Wonder how long can she keep up the facade and the BTO flat when enforcements take place to raid these fake marriage and divorce to game our system here.

OK lo. Treat it as a gathering. It is not so significant to us local born because we tend to catch up frequently. Those who often work abroad and away will find it more significant because they really want to come back to celebrate with family and relatives.

Once ah ma and ah kong is gone, the big gathering is history.
Unless one of the uncles or aunties is willing to host every one under one roof in their house, or else it is game over for the whole family clan.
Till some one goes to another dimension.
Then, we will see the big gathering again.

Really need some old folks to take the trouble to host the gathering.
Or else the family clan will become distant.
Then again, the present gen dun really want to mix with LKK.

If you have this mentality, you will still be having this mentality everywhere you go. Next time you have a wife, you will also have this mentality. It doesn't matter where your wife is from. And your kids will also have your mentality towards your siblings.

It's better to be a better man, be more positive, then good energy will come to you

Maybe I put it bluntly.
For the old to experience some family warmth before they surrender their pink IC.
Should be ok for kids.
Teenagers are super bored.
Adults - just another hao lian session.
