GEORGE TOWN: Whatever you do at home, some Chinese believe that Zhao Jun, otherwise referred to as the Kitchen God, knows.
The deity is said to have a dotted line to the Jade Emperor – ruler of heaven – himself, and on the 24th day of the 12th lunar month, this deity will return from earth to report on everything you and your family had done in the past year.
