After going through a couple of week of cold spells, the weather was hot again and it was a hot day recently when yours truly was there at KL Sogo on the 8th day of Chinese New Year, to watch their annual Chinese New Year Lion Dance by Hong Teck Dragon & Lion Dance at the small 'dataran' in front of the departmental store...

The drummers definitely gave a perfect performance much to the admiration of those present
KL Sogo staff were seen handing out mandarin oranges to those who were present in the spirit of Chinese New Year celebrations..
The lions paid their respects to KL Sogo managing director Datuk Andrew Lim Tatt Keong and all present before beginning their performance....
The crowd waited with bated breath as the lions ascended the poles....
The crowd stood transfixed, watching in wonder as the the pair of lions leapt from pole to pole effortlessly while playfully flirting with each other..
The mall’s celebration this year carries the theme “Togetherness, Celebrate Happiness” promoting traditional family values, harmony and of course, happiness....
A picture perfect moment with the managing director Datuk Andrew Lim Tatt Keong and all the other management team and staff of KL Sogo...
