There were only 6 days to Chinese New Year. I had to do some shopping. I was expecting a packed shopping complex where people should be busy buying clothes, food and drinks for the festival. But I was surprised to see a vacant car park and the complex was almost deserted. It was 8.30pm, not 12 in the midnight.

Is that reflecting a bad economy situation? Or has everyone gone to the newly opened Kluang Parade? Or do they really need to wait for the last minute rush?

Unbelievable.
