It is the next best option short of being there to give it themselves. In Singapore, if one cannot visit their friends or relatives to give, then perhaps those are not important to give at all. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Precisely! When I send my ang pow to my oversea niece I do use bank transfer. Ask her to wait for my ang pow by postal! Stupid and silly to adopt such an idea in tiny small island singapore. Cny is the times to check on all the neglected old folks be it uncle/aunties that we don't call or visit during the whole year! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
