About the hungry ghost festival

[Cecil Lee]

This year (2000), the hungry ghost period is from 31 July to 28 August.
In my country, you will find out that `celebrations' at void decks especially close to public highrise buildings must end by 10.30pm.
This is to ensure the `noise' or din generated during the `activities' is capped to allow `peace and quiet' for the residence staying nearby after 10.30pm.

This is a picture of the hungry ghost activity as narated in the two articles.
It shows a make-shift tent for the festival and close-by a public housing flat known as Housing Board Flats commonly found in Singapore. Many Singaporeans, I believe, 90 percent of the entire population lives in such `common' flats.
Warmest Regards,

Yesterday, when I was at the Caspian.
What is so special about yesterday? It is the 2nd day of the Chinese 7th month.
In stark contrast to the earlier photo.... even at 10am... not even a single SOUL collected their keys to their apartment in Caspian condo. (Refer to earlier photo and this one)...
