For a Myanmar Natioanal! Regardless of his or her religion or races..Everyone is fondly anticipating this Water Festival or Myanmar New Year or Thingyan FEstival in the month of April.
So I think I shoud say "in Myanmar Context" if I want to say Joyful April..
It's the most celebrated and the most anticipated festival in Myanmar.
I will not elaborate more about Thingyan here as there are thousand of blogs or web sites that talk about this festival.
Straingt to the point..I have great time every year till this age and as you can see even this waterless Thingyan was no less fun.
My dear friend Hkay Mar organized this waterless Thingyan Party @ NTU Alumni House, Singapore. As usual..No Beer ..No Hkay Mar.. Plenty of food...boozes...songs and dance..
The crowd, the venue or eveything was just falling in place nicely and we couldn't just stop the smile on our face till we called it a day.
This festivity's just one of the many Thingyan Parties in Singapore for the year 2009. Thanks to the Singapore economic boom and the gloom back home, ten of thhousands of Myanmar descended on this shore for the past few years.
There was a grand scale celebration at downtown Singapore with popular singers coming all the way from Myanmar.
There was a celebration at Sembawang Park. One at bla bla..you know many people organized and celebrated among their groups and close associates throughout Singapore. Imagine how fun it would be in Yangon..
Till then...... hope we can organize the same celebration at the same venue with more party-comers.
