Chinese New Year is a major celebration in Malaysia. The festival is enjoyed not just by the Malaysian Chinese, but also other Malaysians, with the holidays and also it being a good time to visit their Chinese friends. This year, 2020, is the Year of the Metal Rat. Straits Quay, a lifestyle mall in Seri Tanjung Pinang (Tanjung Tokong) put up some nice Chinese New Year decorations this year. The decorations depict a traditional Chinese / Oriental setting – including a pavilion, wooden walkway, lanterns, cherry blossom, bamboo and a bridge over water. It is perfect for visitors to walk around and take pictures in the evening.
