Side track to that...usually they are quite generous in giving angbaos when compared to us Sgreans...during CNY when visit their homes their minimum rate is at least $10...I even got $50 [thumbsup] should invite more of them to come :D

 

i asked my china colleagues..he said during lunar new year he gave RMB$1k to his nephews/nieces each and thats a 'norm'

If the wedding couple want to host the banquet at Fullerton, it means they can afford it. They would not expect their guests to "catch-up" with bigger angpow.

* just like on NSHW, they want to chiong 200km/h just go ahead, others maybe chiong only 150 km/h.

I know they can afford it but just not nice if you make them lose money although I know the sincerity is more important

Angpow money once spent is quickly forgotten.

Photo frame is a "gift forever", everyday can look at the photo :blink:
