Chinese New Year in Jakarta




Carissa spent her first chinese new year in Jakarta with Catherine's family in Jakarta. She is 6 1/2 months old.

People always ask me "Catherine, is she Indonesian?" Here is answer::(She was born in Sibu and is a Sarawakian/Malaysian. She cannot speak Foochow-mer huei gon hu zhew hua; coz she grew up overseas-Sibu>Petaling Jaya>Jakarta>Geelong/Melbourne>San Francisco>Los Angeles>Singapore>London>Hong Kong>Tokyo>Chicago>Stamford/Connecticut>Singapore>
Melbourne>>>KUCHING!)

Now you know why she cannot speak Foochow and Mandarin not so fluent.
Anyway she likes Kuching (means cat in Malay--CATherine).
