Do you give red envelopes? To your kids? Young in-laws? Employees?
I give them to my kids and their cousins but more noticeably I give a 13th month to my employees bearing business is good enough to warrant it.
I find amusing that khmers love this Chinese tradition so much. It almost seem to me that khmers enjoy Chinese NY more than their own.
Not so much this year in Sihanoukville tho, a bank teller was telling me yesterday she couldn’t care less as she is khmer. That probably had more to do with her place of residence than ethnicity.
How do you Hongbao?

Digital envelopes - pink packet on Pi Pay or red envelope on SmartLuy depending on the recipient; if they don't have either, I give sod all. #2020

I try to make sure the cash inside is new and crisp with no wrinkles.
Goes well with the new year theme.

I've found that for the Sino- Khmer, Chinese NY is the big one. it is pretty annoying that shops often shut for both new year's. Comes from the Chinese being so good at business they run most of the shops I suppose.Barang_doa_slae wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2020 10:48 amDo you give red envelopes? To your kids? Young in-laws?
