Elizabeth Tai | 戴秀铃 🇲🇾Every year there's some stupid spat about Chinese New Year vs Lunar New Year. I understand the context of why China Chinese are so defensive about our new year being called Lunar New Year. I mean how would you like it if some other nation decided to rename your celebration to something more "acceptable" or "inclusive". Also, lunar new year isn't exactly accurate. If anything that should belong to the Islamic celebration of Eid.
Anyhoo, most Malaysians don't mind if you say Lunar New Year, but we've generally said Chinese New Year. After all even our officials say "Tahun Baru Cina" in their official greetings, which means, you guessed it Chinese New Year.
So when this became a big deal on Chinese social media I could only sigh. Like, can we fight about something else?
But because of what this Kim Iversen said, now I want to roll up my sleeves and side with China 🤪
Wtf, all Asians hate the Chinese? I have besties who are Indians, Malay and other races. They kinda like me as far as I can tell. Heck some of them even marry Chinese, ya know?
Apani logic??
Yet she's defending what she said in the comments?
Has she lost her marbles??
People take what she says seriously as a media figure?
