Participants fishing for mandarin oranges tossed by women into the lake.

RAIN did not dampen the hopes and spirits of youths as they gathered by a lake to toss or fish out mandarin oranges on the night of Chap Goh Meh, also known as Chinese Valentines’ Day.

First-timer and university graduate Vivian Lai Jing Wen, 21, was eager to toss the fruit during Bandar Mahkota Cheras Residents Association’s mandarin orange tossing event at a recreational park in Selangor.
