How a Hokkien genocide was averted


Tomorrow, 18th February 2013, the 9th Day of the Chinese Year of the Snake is the Hokkiens' most important day of the year

Indeed, it's far more important than even Chinese New Year's Day or any other day.

The Hokkiens believe it’s the day their ancestors were saved by the Lord of Heaven from genocidal massacre. Traditional Hokkiens around the world, especially in Penang and Singapore, will make votive offerings to Th’nee Kong (Lord of Heaven) to commemorate the salvation of the Hokkien race by divine grace.

In Penang the yearly pilgrimage to the temple of the Jade Emperor (Lord of Heaven) at Bukit Bendera has already begun.
