KUALA LUMPUR: The Kuala Lumpur and Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall (KLSCAH) promoted unity in diversity along with rekindling interest in ancient Chinese pictographs and dough dolls, during its Chinese New Year open house.

It invited a Chinese calligraphy master, a Jawi and khat expert, and an Indian artist to write Chinese New Year messages in various languages on a long canvas, to drive home the point that the meaning of the words remains unaltered despite the different strokes.
