Year 2009 had past and 2010 begins. Have you fulfilled your resolutions for 2009? What are your resolutions for 2010? If you don’t mind, you can share them in the comments.
On behalf of the Group, I would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year 2010. Found an interesting New Year fireworks, made using dominoes. Enjoy!
Merry Christmas to everyone!
Christmas is celebrated by many, including non-Christians. It is a time for family and friends to gather and meet and gift exchanges are usually one of the highlights. More on Christmas on Wikipedia.
On behalf of the Group, I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. Enjoy the following Indian style 12 days of Christmas, performed by animated popstar, Boymongoose and Indian boyband.
Would like to wish all Hindu friends a happy Deepavali.
Many people have this misinterpretation that Deepavali is the “new year” of the Hindus, but it isn’t. Rather, it is the Festival of Lights for them. Read more about Deepavali on Wikipedia.
Enjoy your celebration!

Happy Chinese New Year to everyone in the year of the ox!
Have been busy with work and moving house (part 2) recently so it explains the lack of updates here. Will update the weblog with more scouting articles once I have settled down.
Meanwhile, go out and collect more red packets!
Today is Hari Raya Haji. Would like to take this chance to wish all muslim scouts, family, friends and vistors a happy Hari Raya Haji.
Excerpt from Wikipedia:
Hari Raya Haji (or also known as Festival of Sacrifice) is a religious festival celebrated by Muslims and Druze worldwide in commemoration of the willingness of Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to Allah. The devil tempted Ibrahim by saying he should disobey Allah and spare his son. As Ibrahim was about to kill his son, Allah intervened: instead Allah provided a lamb as the sacrifice. This is why today all over the world Muslims who have the means to, sacrifice an animal, as a reminder of Ibrahim’s obedience to Allah. The meat is then shared out with family and friends, as well as the poorer members of the community (Islam names Ishmael as the son who was to be sacrificed, whereas the Judeo-Christian name Isaac).
Also, due to work, I realised I had forgotten to wish our Indian scouts and friends in celebrating their Deepavali on the 27th of October 2008. I apologies for that.
Would like to wish all our muslim scouts and friends a Happy Hari Raya Puasa!
And to all cub scouts and those young at heart, Happy Children’s Day!
Enjoy your holiday.
