We went to Padungan to see the Procession of the Birth of the Teochew God. The procession started at The Shang Ti Temple 上帝庙 which is known as Teochew Temple as well. Personally, I am a Teochew , my bf is a Hokkien. Ever heard of a song entitled 我们一家都是人 sing by 阿牛 & 阿辉?
我是福建人
我是潮州人
冇管我是什么人
我是马来西亚人
这边的天时真热
这边的天时真干
有人穿裤有人穿麻
有人穿衫有人冇穿衫
热热人人suka脱衫
泡杯咖啡拔扇翘翘脚
吃吃叻沙咬到辣椒仔
哗父辣到妈不认子
我是福建人
我是潮州人
冇管我是什么人
我是马来西亚人
轰险天要落大雨
雨水淹得贵街路
晒衫三日晒未乾
害我三日冇换衫
雨啊愈落愈大
水啊愈淹愈满
雷公响得大大声
阿妈著惊找冇麻
我是福建人
我是潮州人
冇管我是什么人
我是马来西亚人
我是福建人
我是潮州人
我们都是一家人
我们一家都是人
malaysia boleh!
Actually that is not the main point. It was the Teochew God Birthday. We reached at Padungan roughly on 7.10pm. At that moment, the procession still not reached yet. So we looked for a nice place for us to view the procession clearly without any obstruction. The roadside was crowded with people. The majority of them were children and parents.
Sooner, we saw the lion dance coming to us. Followed by cars, people, Lorries in sorts of decoration, dragon dance, big head masked man, Chinese musicians, Cai Shen, Ji Gong, Red Crescent marching , lion dance and etc…

I heard an “ Ah Pek” released gas (fart) in front of me. I quickly pulled my bf aside. If not we will kena “Bomb”. Hehe.
