GEORGE TOWN: The yearly Chap Goh Meh festivities will be observed this evening with babas, nyonyas and performers of a dondang sayang troupe being ferried on a Hop-On Hop-Off bus for the traditional mandarin orange throwing ceremony at the Esplanade.
Unlike previous celebrations, when the peranakan troop travelled in a regular bus, the group will hop onto an open-top double-decker, part of a fleet of sight-seeing buses introduced on Penang roads in November 2014.
