Once the event started, Club President Mr Lim Ang Hock, BBM and PA Group Director (People Cluster) Mr Tan Kim Kee addressed the participants and wished all participants a happy, healthy and prosperous year ahead. The evening’s festivities commenced with the joyous tossing of the “yusheng”, which symbolises abundance, good fortune, prosperity and vigour. The abundance began to flow immediately, starting with the sumptuous eight-course banquet dinner. Performances by artistes and celebrities livened up the occasion with special appearance by Mediacorp Getai Challenge champion Desmond Ng stealing the show and winning the hearts of many.
