corner of Popular Malaysia, even staff in our warehouse did not miss out on the festive snack bags and drinks. Of course, keeping all our staff involved in all our celebration was not just about having a good time during CNY. It was also about creating a workplace that gives our staff a sense of belonging and a work environment that is conducive to developing strong bonds among all staff. In keeping with the tradition of Popular Malaysia’s CNY celebrations, a “Costume Day” was held on 24-25 February 2021. Besides the customary angpows from the company for the well wishes of another fruitful year, staff who turned up to work dressed in traditional Chinese costumes or sporting a theme of red were given an even bigger angpow! A female staff caused quite a commotion when she came to the office dressed in a hanfu, the historical-style Chinese clothing. We found out later that the hanfu was incredibly expensive, but she looked beautiful in it! Festive celebrations like Popular Malaysia’s CNY celebration have taken on a greater significance in trying times like the current COVID-19 pandemic. Not only do they bring our staff closer together, they also remind us that our well-being has always been a top priority in POPULAR.
