Get Creative in Office This Chinese New Year
With Chinese New Year just around the corner, many families are preparing for a huge day of celebration. Although Chinese New Year may not be celebrated like how it was in the past years due to the obvious hurdles, there’s still other creative ways in which we can celebrate the occasion.
