Maybe the atmosphere will be a little festive in the Chinatown area.

It is very quiet and even many traders have returned to their villages.

@Babale You're right, we can't change it if things are like that.

Do you live on the island of Java? looks like the Chinese New Year is very different. During the day it did not rain continuously like the previous year.

We do not celebrate it as a pure Filipino.

@Babale Indeed. We need to respect the diversity of differences with other nationalities.

Likewise, the majority of Muslims here. However, this is a form of cultural diversity.

Previously this was prohibited when our country was led by a military president, now it is free after democracy won.

Same holiday here. I think it will be the same scenario as no one is allowed to have big gathering

So in the Philippines Chinese New Year is also a national holiday? If so, there must be a lot of Chinese descent living there.

Thank You, But I don't celebrate Chinese New Year because I'm Muslim.

I don't know, I didn't go out today. Most Chinese live in the town. The other day some were selling oranges from shop to shop. I guess I'll be seeing lion dance when I go out around this week and next. But I don't think it will be huge celebration like always as we still have travel ban.

It is better now to stay at home and watch the lion dance from the television.

We don't celebrate because we're not Chinese. However, Florida's been wide open for months, and it just depends on what cities and businesses want to do. The Gatorade twin 150's happened today.

Aren't there many Chinatowns there? I saw in the movie the area was very wide.

There are very few Chinese people here so this is not celebrated where I am.
