Memorial Prayer : Mar-16



It was another year for Ching-Ming where we would come together and pay respect to our deceased relatives.  As mummy and Ah Jia & Gong-gong ashes were placed at Senja, we would attend the memorial prayers at Senja centre every year.  This year, I was also tasked to be the photographer for that session and thus, had a good view of the entire event. 

A deep impression of this event was when our General Director (GD) delivered his speech after the prayers and requesting the attendees to lower their volume for the respect of the Gohozon and the deceased.  Personally, I felt GD was courageous to remind everyone on the spirit of Ching-Ming session, and paying respects to our deceased.  It was a culture I also felt lacking in our society, well we could be warm-hearted and kind individuals here, the awareness of proper behavior on various important occasion could be further observed.  Let’s see how we could improve within ourselves first.
