[@lalife9443]

Why the Malaysian ppl do celebrating the Chinese yr ,even though they're not Chinese🤔 n does all the Asians doing like the same!?

[@erenjaeger-uy9ns]

@@lalife9443 because we’re family broo we celebrate everything related to malaysians regardless your race!

[@dontsleep5863]

@@lalife9443 Malaysia is a multiracial country. We have all kinds of races here including Malays, Chinese and Indians etc. Don’t mix up nationality and race. Malaysian is our nationality, Chinese, Malay, Indian is the race. Why do Malaysian celebrate Chinese New Year? Because there are Chinese in Malaysia too! Like how there are Chinese in every part of the world such as America, Australia etc. In short, our ancestors came from China and they settled down here in Malaysia hence we are called Malaysian(nationality)Chinese(race). We celebrate CNY because we are still Chinese and Chinese New Year is a part of our tradition and culture. It’s like how the Malays have their Hari Raya and the Indians have their Deepavali too.

I watching this while cry … because so much Chinese traditional in one video .. so touching …

[@instantmiso6691]

I just came across this video and this spoke to me in many ways. As a fellow lion dancer, my team had to shut down in 2020 and hasn't started up again until quite recently. Watching this video brought about a lot of emotion and relatability. It was such a well put together story and pulled at my heart strings

[@jaykhaw5025]

Thank you to the Jinnyboy TV team for showing Chinese culture in these tough years and new ways we can celebrate it. This is the best example "Adapt to your generation but do not forget culture". It will be a tough CNY for these Lion Dance associations this year, no income throughout 2020, and during the best season of the year, they are not able to perform for the society. Lets support each other and we will all get through this together. Happy CNY to all. #kitajagakita

[@Jinnyboy]

kita jaga kita!

[@khimchung6640]

hope new generation still continue this lion dance spirit

[@magnetman007]

This had me tearing up! Yes, I’ve often wondered about how much longer our Chinese traditions would last and what or how they can evolve. AMAZING video! TY TY TY for creating something so beautiful.

[@iTi_0177_]

Hardwork like this deserves applause👏👏 TRADITIONS CANNOT BE FORGOTTEN

[@Zeitframe]

The editing is superb, the colour grading brings tears to my eyes, the production quality is excellent and the actors are really convincing. I can feel the transformation of an age old tradition to current trends. Oh and I can see how tiny details are taken into account (Samsung Sero TV hahaha and Samsung phones all around the video), they're not obtrusive but it's nice to see how you guys incorporated Samsung products into your videos. It's nice to see how you guys started back in 2011 and we can see how Jinnyboy TV has improved through the years. Good job guys, all the best and happy CNY!!!!

[@irenetan3578]

Love lion dance. Keep up the tradition. Happy CNY. Hope next year will be different, with more lion dance around.

Thank you Jinnyboy for such meaningful and good video again and again. I have been following Jinnyboy for almost 10 years and it is my first channel that I subscribe since I have youtube account. This video has brought up so much memories especially the scene when the boys were going to pack the stuff at the studio, it reminds me of the goood old times in my family business 'HQ', it is 20 yrs plus old shop, we grew up there, we played and gather for any festival at the same place on the pass 20+ years. Every chor 2, there will be lion dance performance in the 'HQ' and everyone is so happy & enjoyed the moment but good thing never last, this 'HQ' shut down few years ago. Seeing the packing scene also remind me of how the staff helping on packing the old stuff and rubbish to clean the 'HQ'. Later, this also lead to reduce of having so much fun and joy as the number of reunion lunch/dinner is totally become 0. Not to mention, this year is a special CNY, I celebrate this on KL which is away from my hometown, Ipoh and I know many people out there are the same as well. I thought I will be alright but this video has made me homesick and miss to those happy childhood This video is so so so touching, I shed tears every time I play this. Thank you Jinnyboy team for creating such meaningful video. Gnongxifacai ! will support your team till you retire liaww !
