Our family does. We're Filipino Chinese and it's our tradition to eat as a family at the eve of Chinese New Year. We even visited the local Chinese temple. I think it's nice that we have another holiday =)

Chinese New Year - year 2009 is the year of the ox
Hello. I did not go to Binondo to join the festivities. I watched every channel searching for updates of the said event. I am not Chinese, but I am fond of learning more about Chinese culture.

Hi, Happy Chinese New Year to you. I'm a Chinese too. Me and my family also have wonderful reunion dinner as well. It's a good time to meet with all our loved ones and enjoy the blessings from each other...

No, i havent celebrated becasue i dont live in China nor i am Chinese but certainly i watched some of the Chinese New Year ceremonies on TV , these all were interesting and didn't know before this one that Chinese celebrate thier new year like this. It must be a great occasion for many Chinese to go out seeing family, friends and also having dinner in a restaurant, etc.
