A significant moon night, being the last day of the Lunar Calendar Chinese New Year Celebration of fifteen days in Penang.
Young virgin lasses dressed in their best pretty dresses with gorgeous colors especially bright red would cross a bridge n throw mandarin oranges into a river n wished for good n prosperous husbands. The men might be around n watch for most beautiful girls to make proposals!
Yearly in Penang this event displayed all its pomp in large gathering of beautiful ladies in the Esplanade fronting the sea.
