As Chinese New Year of the Rat is approaching soon on 7 February 2008, the annual mass 'exodus' or migration back to their hometowns in China has already begun a week or two ago.
Businesses are either on reduced production or closed till end February 2008 for the long holidays. The whole nation celebrates the new year,human movements are controlled and staggered to avoid total melt down of the transports and road systems.
Here in Malaysia not only the chinese but all other races are planning trips back to their hometowns to be with family, relatives and friends for the holidays.
The local version of 'Balik Kampung' is evident during celebrations of all races/religions festivals taking the opportunity of the long extended public holidays.
This travelling or rather travelling slowly in traffic jams! mostly on road vehicles can be quite challenging especially with kids/elders in the car. In this hot tropical weather, keeping hydrated is a must while crammed up in a hot vehicle. we have a few travel mugs perfect as a gift during this festive season available at www.ideahouse.com.my
