I read in a local newspaper last week about Lantern Festival. The management of Kuching Waterfront publicized that they were giving away 300 lanterns for free. Curious of its response, I decided to have a look at the lantern give away event. When I reached there, at first, I was attracted by the small boats at the river. So I snapped a photo of one of the boats.
Then as I walked along the waterfront, I started seeing people carrying lanterns in their hands. So I decided to look for the lantern distribution counter.
Whalla! I found the counter. To my surprise, the staff distributing the lanterns were Malays. This is truly One Malaysia. Hehehe
They helped out with the fire and the lanterns. Seriously, all the lanterns were given free to public.
And finally, I was too tired to walk. So I decided to stop for a while and took a photo of the Chinese temple, which is located at the heart of the city centre.
