Merry Christmas 2011
Hi all,
Ben, Suanne, Arkensen and Nanzaro wishes all a very Merry Christmas.
May this Christmas brings joy to the world.
Below is a couple of Youtube videos with Chinese and Peranakan flavours for your enjoyment.
Here is for Ben who is celebrating Christmas in Beijing; Joy to the World played with Chinese musical instruments.
Here is a peranakan song about 12 Days of Christmas. It will bring a smile to those from Southeast Asia.

The Peranakan song was fun.
I found myself looking up things I didn’t know, like onde onde.
Dunno about Vancouver, but gulam melaka or Malaysian palm sugar
- the real McCoy- is difficult to obtain in London but no
problem with obtaining fresh pandan leaf.
The Thai and Indian/Sri Lankan paler-coloured palm sugar
available is nowhere quite as good.
Love onde onde that can’t eat enough of when a kid
and even as an adult in Malaysia.Oh memories…
Merry Christmas and all the best of the holiday season to Ben, Suanne and family ! Happy 2012.
Merry Christmas Ben, Suanne and family….thanks for another great year of blogging…..can’t wait to see what the new year brings.
Have a great New Year to you and your family.
