For Ivan Tai, work comes first. This means no balik kampung for the all-important reunion dinner on the eve of Chinese New Year. He also celebrates the first day of CNY with just his parents in Kuala Lumpur.

The 27-year-old has grandparents in Melaka and Pahang, but for the past two years, Tai and his parents have remained in KL on the first two days of celebration as he had to work.
