[Saba Sports News] Malaysia preserves a rich heritage of traditional
Chinese culture. On the occasion of the Chinese New Year, badminton legend Lee
Chong Wei took to social media to share his New Year traditions with fans. In
the video, Lee Chong Wei and his son skillfully operated a dragon and lion
dance, creating a joyful and laughter-filled scene. The next segment showcased
the tradition of pasting Spring Festival couplets, where Lee Chong Wei
diligently pasted them barefoot, displaying the same level of skill as he does
on the badminton court. After pasting the couplets, Lee Chong Wei would
affectionately ask his wife, “Did I do it right?” as a gesture
towards his fans. Following this, Lee Chong Wei and his wife exchanged red
envelopes, made New Year cakes, and enjoyed listening to New Year songs. The
entire family would dance together to the tunes, filling the house with a
delightful atmosphere. Some fans pointed out that while Lee Chong Wei’s
family’s Chinese New Year celebration may appear ordinary, it emanates
boundless warmth and happiness.
