In Malaysia, Chap Goh Mei is not an official public holiday. It is also known as “Yuan Xiao Jie” or Lantern Festival. Chap Goh Mei is the Hokkien term for the 15th night of the new year signifying the end of the Chinese New Year celebrations. It is Chinese version of Valentine’s Day as unmarried ladies will write their name and contact details on mandarin oranges and toss them into rivers in search of a boyfriend or husband.
