more updates on HGF...

The NST reports more on the HGF :-)

It reports that not only people shy away from weddings, they would avoid moving house and not plan a holiday at a beach resort. In Hong Kong, the people will try not party to wee hours in the mornings.

In Taiwan, property and car sales usually enter a lull period during the festival, prompting retailers to provide generous offers or discounts to try to boost sales by appealing to the younger generation which is less superstitious.

And on the beach going holidays, some people claimed that they might be captured by ghosts in the water. :-D

But the Singaporean are the best since its the best time to hunt for lucky numbers to play the "4-Digits" (4D) lottery.

"People will often use this chance to ask ghosts for lottery numbers," said Lee Inn Peng, a Taoist medium who has been practising for 21 years. "These people are desperate, and will try anything. Sometimes they are at the graveyards with talismans, burning offerings asking for numbers."
