S'poreans are very rich indeed, spending lavishly on cny yusheng. Many thanks to the govt for creating abundant job opportunities with quality pay for the people. Remarkable! ❤❤

[@martinbrock713]

Singaporeans aren’t rich idiot

[@krollpeter]

Spending 90 $ on what is mostly a few hundred grams of cabbage-stuff and a few pieces of salmon

[@kk22001]

Yu shang is one of the biggest commercial scam that singaporean chinese bought into.

[@Iceyfire12]

Even if it so what they have money to spend for it and it makes them happy lol! Idk a Singaporean business or family not doing it!

[@TheMrleeyang]

you can make it yourself if you feel that way. Then not a scam

[@deschan2246]

High profit? Yes. Scam? No

🙏 Noticing many ordered the Vegan / Vegetarian Yu Sheng for " Lau Hei " = Stir for Prosperity in Cantonese Lunar New Tradition after the Covid-19 Global Pandemic & many raw fish food poisoning scares over the years ... Vegetarian / Vegan Yu Sheng also much more affordable & having longer shelf life! 😊🙏 Wishing Happy Lunar New Year 2024 of the Wood Dragon to Everybody! 🌷🌿🍎🍊🌍💖🐉🇸🇬

[@martinbrock713]

Singaporeans should take back the money from these packages but not feel obligated to support the PAP in the coming polls.

[@KatJade269]

$92.00 is well too expensive even with inflation, labour costs, etc. No need to eat also “Huat”. It’s just a New Year dish to add to the festivities.

[@leewn2319]

Lo Hei though is fun and bonding dish, it is grossly overpriced for the ingredients. The shredded cucumbers, white radish, pickled gingers, crackers, grounded pepper , sesame, grounded ground nuts , plum sauce are all very low cost items. The only more expensive item is the thin slices of raw salmon or smoked salmon. It’s too costly a dish & very messy with the tossing. Unhygienic too with everyone shouting out the good wishes there with be added saliva sprinkling too. For that price, might as well order a nice plate of mixed sashimi.

[@deschan2246]

Overpriced? Yes unhygienic? Maybe Order mixed sashimi? If eating quietly is yr choice y not?

[@happymelon7129]

The year of "loong". Chinese has use “loong” to stay away from western "dragon" . For they are totally different legendary animal. Chinese loong : Maintain good weather for farmer Western Dragon : love gold , greedy , evil .

Man made

It's not every celebrant's cup of tea, rich or poor.

[@zukinny100]

It's so good to see Singaporeans embracing a Malaysian creation for Chinese New Year 🤭

[@KeoNz]

ah.... typical Malaysians trying to steal Singapore's creation as usual

[@xz-se6br]

Pls get ur fact right. Yu Sheng was created by 4 chefs in Singapore 🇸🇬... NOT A MALAYSIA creation. Written Records of its origin www.roots.gov.sg/stories-landing/stories/Lohei

[@xz-se6br]

zukinny100 fyi, origin of yu sheng www.roots.gov.sg/stories-landing/stories/Lohei

[@zukinny100]

@xz-se6br LoL Quoting a source from Singapore. Not so credible, eh? Now, China wants to claim credit for its creation, too, when its own people don't even know what Yu Sheng or Yee Sang was 10 years ago. Singaporeans, please don't behave like China Mainlanders, even though your immigration policies are letting them in like water through mosquito nets 🤣

[@KeoNz]

@@zukinny100 at least there's a source. What do you or Malaysia even have except just claiming it? Extensive debunking have already been done. The "Yu Sheng" Malaysia claim to have invented does not even look like the current version. Its just raw fish with green veges and some other sauce. The current colorful Yu Sheng 七彩鱼生 with the use of plum sauce popular and widely eaten during CNY in SG & MY now is invented by the "4 heavenly king" chefs in Singapore.

[@deschan2246]

Its funny n weird to see non chinese doing "lo hei".

The China's claim the Lunar New Year as "Chinese New Year" is like a thief saying his recent loot was an inheritance.

[@peekaboopeekaboo1165]

Funny fake news and disinformation. The Non-Chinese are the ones promoting "lunar new year" to substitute the commonly used term: Chinese New Year .

[@kongwee1978]

Yup, India invent the Chinese New Year.

[@AhmetTekin101]

​@@kongwee1978It's certainly not the Chinese.

[@deschan2246]

Thief? 😂 Chinese New Year has been celebrated by Chinese for thousands of year. How does it turned into thief is puzzling.

[@buburbibik]

This yee sang is originally from Malaysia

[@peekaboopeekaboo1165]

Invented by Chinese from Malaysia ...?

[@scaleartsg]

no from Singapore

[@KeoNz]

Yee Sang literally meant raw fish originated from the guangdong province in China. The modern Yee Sang known as 七彩鱼生 with the use of plum sauce, various color ingredients and the tradition of tossing was modified by the 4 heavenly chefs in Singapore. Hence, modern Yee Sang in its current form is invented and originally from Singapore.

[@deschan2246]

Nice Try, this times its Singapore creations. Better luck next time😂
