kong ming deng

[andugo]

Hi guys i saw people selling this in chinatown during cny period. Is there any event of setting it to the skys during cny period? From what I know last year the event was on mooncake festival.

I think if they organised the event won't be in the areas where there is aeroplanes. Last year i heard it was in sembawang area. Any ideas this year it will be when and where? It will be cool to take pictures.

Notice that they mentioned "passing on the lamp".. so not sure if they are really going to light up and let it fly up into the sky.

Yesterday news has already confirm this, the kong ming deng are stuff with helium balloons and led lights. So the passing of the LED lamp is just a signification of the passing of the torch.

Dont be so excited , Chingay has no permit to fly the kong ming deng into the air. They will let the balloon float to the air by tied to a string about 30ft long. Just for your infos.

Fireworks should start after 9:30pm

so sad I thought they was gonna set fly into the sky..

It's not allowed as it's a fire hazard. Go to Chiangmai during Yi Peng or Loy Krathong. It's beautiful.
