After the long Chinese New Year holiday, everyone supposes to go back to office today in which you should see lion dancing everywhere to welcome them.
Shops and companies hang lettuce at the entrance on their first day of work in the new year to welcome the Lion, which is believed to bring good luck and fortune to the business. Lettuce, in chinese 生菜 (san choi), has a similar pronunciation as 生財 (sun choi), which means growing wealth and prosperity. The lion will eat the lettuce and throw it into the shop, which the storekeepers will catch the lettuce (luck and wealth).
The atmosphere on the first working day should be a lot different this year. Civil servants (except those who provide urgent and necessary public services) and many other private sector employees will work from home until Feb 2 as a preventive measure to minimise the spread of Wuhan Coronavirus.
Stay healthy everyone! May the lion also bring us good health!
