Dumpling Festival (端午节)@ Concourse @ Blk 156A and Blk 158

The Toa Payoh Central Zone ‘5’ and Zone ‘6’ Residents’ Committees (RC) organised a Dumpling Festival celebration on 12 June 2010 respectively at the Concourse at Blk 156A and Blk 158 Lorong 2 Toa Payoh. The event brought residents of all races together for a night to learn about the Dumpling festival in its commemoration of the great Chinese patriot Qu Yuan (屈原).

Both events were graced by Mr Wong Kan Seng, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Home Affairs, and Member of Parliament for Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC. DPM Wong was invited and gamely joined residents in a Dumpling Making Contest. The participants were treated to a sumptuous dinner whilst being entertained by an array of exciting stage performances.

Here are some photos taken from the event.
