SINGAPORE — For the past three years, Malaysian Derick Tee has not been able to return to his hometown in Muar, Johor, for the Chinese New Year festivities due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
So it was with great excitement that the 46-year-old Singapore permanent resident crossed the border on Saturday to reunite with his extended family.
Before the pandemic, it was Mr Tee who would cook the reunion dinner for the whole gang every year, and this year he got to pick up his ladle again. Each of those years, preparations for the dinner would begin weeks in advance, when the family would discuss what dishes they would like. In 2020, travel to China was halted right before Chinese New Year, and CJ and his parents have not returned since.
