Not missing out on reunion


CNY wishes from afar: Schoolteacher Lim Wei Xiu, her husband, Lee Choon Choy, and their children (from right) Hoy Jit, Hoy Yan and Hoy Seng from Jenjarom, Selangor, sending their online Chinese New Year greetings to family members Lim Kean Chiak and Wei Hong in Sungai Petani, Kedah. This is the first time since their marriage eight years ago that the couple could not be with their families for the festival.

PETALING JAYA: This young family may not be cruising down the highway to get to their loved ones in Kedah, but they will be “zooming” in from the comfort of their own homes.

Welcoming the Year of the Ox will be slightly different for Lee Choon Choy, 37, his wife Lim Wei Xiu, 33, and their three young children as they are unable to go back to Lim’s family home in Sungai Petani, Kedah.
