Singapoorean Malaysian Association 2011 New Year Celebration

This year as the tiger leave the Chinese lunar calendar on February 3rd. 2011, the rabbit hopped in. Gone are Tigers which are physically powerful, gracious, independent and brave, they are extremely bold animals. They are friendly and loving but can also selfish and short tempered. Tigers seek attention and power; frequently they are envious in a relation. Tigers live dangerously which often leads to trouble. They are intolerant, take risks and are always searching for excitement. Tigers are also instilled with a good dose of courage.

This year Singapore Malaysian Association celebrated the Chinese New on the Saturday February 5th 2011 at The Golden Regency Restaurant in Pacific Mall with The Honorable John Duncan, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development in attendance as well as leader of the opposition party in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario Mr. Tim Hudak.

Frances Yip, Elisa Chan and Maria Cordero concert at Fallsview Casino

The Avalon Ballroom at Niagara Fallsview Casino August 30th 2010

Normally, I will shy away from publishing any article regarding the concerts I have attended at any of the Casinos but I will make an exception for this because my wife and I truly enjoyed the evening very much.

For most of you not familiar with Ms. Frances Yip, you would not understand the hype about her fame. She is usually know to most Chinese as the Barbara Streisand of the East. In the eighty Ms Frances Yip proper into fame after singing the theme song for the Shanghai Beach Cantonese mini series. Born in Hong Kong and attended Catholic mission school in her earlier years where the missionary help mold her singing career.

Last night Ms Frances Yip, Ms Elisa Chan and Ms. Maria Cordera performed a heart warming evening at the Avalon Ballroom at Niagara Fallsview Casino for a capacity crowd. What make these three ladies stand out are their sincere appreciation for the crowd that was there to attend the concert. They pour out their heart in songs and words and enchant the evening to the crowd.

Unfortunately, without getting permission first I am unable to shoot and publish any photos of the evening.
