It is that time of the year when you will seem many Chinese households in Malaysia hanging up a red door banner to welcome the new year. The traditional styled door banner above has embroidery of the Eight Immortals. The Taoists believe that the 8 Immortals will bring tremendous good luck to all aspects of our lives, be it wealth, health, social, network, love, education and good descendants.
Such banners would also have inscriptions of auspicious chinese characters such as "wing wah fu kwai" or "kam yuk moon thong" which will connote prosperity, money luck, opportunities and good luck. At the bottom of the banner is a stretch of colorful hanging tassels.
