RHYTHMIC beat of drums and clashing cymbals created a vibrant, joyful atmosphere at the Sentosa constituency Chinese New Year dinner celebration in Klang, Selangor.
An eight-member energetic lion dance troupe gave a lively performance to ring in the new year.
Sentosa assemblyman G. Gunaraj said the gathering at a restaurant off Persiaran Raja Muda Musa was attended by some 450 residents.
“Our annual gatherings serve as a cornerstone to promote unity across diverse communities.
“Open house practices are a symbol of togetherness, reflecting the harmony among all races.”
Guests were treated to cultural performances, including a dance by Soka Gakkai Malaysia (SGM) Selangor Culture Centre in Taman Klang Jaya and a martial art safety routine by Persatuan Tang Soo Do Selangor.
Present were South Klang district police chief Asst Comm Lim Jit Huey, SGM Selangor branch president Johnny Ng Teck Sim and branch secretary Yap Chin Fah, Charity Food Basket Society Klang founder Chew Song Kong, Bandar Botanic Resident Association (BBRA) president Fong Tang Chong, BBRA vice-president Jacob Mathews and Klang Royal City councillor Nyaneswaran Subramaniam.
