OF the 12 Chinese zodiac animals, the Rabbit is known to be the most gentle and tender. After the roaring Year of the Tiger, the Year of the Rabbit is expected to be calm and “hop-ful”.

But some have said that the Year of the Rabbit will not be a very good year for the masses, businesses and the economy due to rising inflation and cost of living, growing climate crisis, geopolitical instability and more – factors attributed to the supposed fragility of the Rabbit.
