Merry mask-querade

FROM the historic E&O Hotel to the Chew clan jetty and majestic aura of the Che Hoon Khor Moral Uplifting Society building, love was in the air in George Town, Penang.

More than 210 couples got married in mass wedding ceremonies in the city on the auspicious date of 09-09-09 yesterday.

Aside from being a catchy and once-in-a-lifetime wedding date, 09-09-09 also has a special significance as the number nine or jiu in Mandarin has the same sound as the phrase chang chang jiu jiu which means everlasting.
