Ok. I want to know one thing. Is New Years celebrated in HKG? I have heard that they only celebrate Chinese New Year. So does someone know something about this. I would really like to find out this. I have a bet with my father that they celebrate both New Years. But he said that they celebrate only Chinese New Year.

Well, I must say that you won the bet. In China, people celebrate both New Years. First they celebrate out mutual New Year ( between December 31 and January 1) and 19 days latter they celebrate their traditional New Year. Worlds New Year they celebrate drinking, and having parties, and singing, and dancing on modern music. But in my opinion their (Chineses New Year) is much better. They celebrate on the old traditional way. Also they are on the streets, but then they are in the costumes, and dancing their dances. It is really nice thing to see.
