Chinese New Year No Longer Exclusive One might think that celebrating Chinese New Year would be exclusive to the Chinese people. Well not so anymore. Thailand, which has a large Thai-Chinese community, has also joined in, making the festivity nation-wide. In addition to traditional lion dances, musical performances and beauty contests, there will also be large food fairs, with people selling various Chinese foods. In the city of Petchaburi, there will also be a gigantic Chinese noodle cooking show. The festivities will last from 24th January to 4th February and there will be events at almost all major cities across Thailand.
