Highlighting Chinese traditions, culture


The history of Ho Kow is highlighted at the entrance of Hainan Kopitiam.

PETALING Street, dubbed Kuala Lumpur’s Chinatown, used to be the main place to shop for Chinese New Year (CNY) goods before the 1990s.

Vibrant red lanterns would don stall fronts, while other decorations such as pink petals of cherry blossom, greeting cards as well as colourful ang pow packets would be displayed to attract customers preparing for the festival.
