A Christmas far away from home


Handful of gifts: Santa Claus handing out presents to the children at the home of Michael and Jenah in Bagan Ajam, Butterworth.

BUTTERWORTH: They may be far away from their hometowns but the joy of Christmas could be clearly seen on the faces of a group of East Malaysians here when carollers from the local church came carolling at one of their homes.

The carollers from St Mark’s Church sang Christian songs and hymns as a person dressed as Santa Claus gave out presents and sweets to the little ones at the home of Sarawakian couple Michael Collin Siang, 29, and Jenah Achie, 30, in Taman Udara, Bagan Ajam.
