Happy (belated) Chinese New Year! Keong Hee Huat Chai! Another CNY (17 Feb – 3 March) has passed and it’s another laujuak festive season!! So now, it’s time to post photos of the season in Nui and our community of .
Tq to those regulars who balik kampung to Penang and include Nui in your pitstops. Of course not to forget the new faces who came in to have your drinks and snacks. Hope you had a pleasant time here. Kamsiah as well for the CNY gifts, the oranges, cookies, desserts, cakes, dui lian (Chinese couplets), angpau. Happy lo!!!! Tq Saikong Tq Pei Pei. Tq helpers and volunteers.
CNY was sweeter this year as we had a special appearance by Mr Lee Eng Kew, historian and cultural researcher from Taiping, who serenaded the crowd with his Yue Qin, playing local Hokkien folk songs.
Big big hugs to you all.
We are deeply grateful that Nui space is still around and we have the opportunity to provide you with a safe space - to rest, escape, recharge, reconnect, do some readings or to settle your works.
Nui is happy to share that the reading room served not only for those who need to have a meeting or work but also to close their eyes for a quick nap, for parents to read to their kids, for old friends to catch up and for mums to breastfeed their newborns too.
Hope to see you guys again.
And Selamat Hari Raya (21 March, Saturday). Semoga semua dimurahkan rezeki dan hidup penuh kebahagiaan. Bring over some ketupat and rendang ok.
