A Blooming CNY Celebration for Senior Citizens at eCurve

In celebration of Chinese New Year and in the spirit of giving and togetherness, eCurve recently treated senior citizens from Persatuan Rumah Amal Murni to experience eCurve’s colourful and lively Blossoms of Spring campaign.

Upon arriving, the guests entered the Centre Atrium, which was beautifully transformed into a Chinese garden adorned with brightly lit red Chinese lanterns, intricately designed stone lions and a lavishly decorated Pagoda. Before taking their seats, the guests of honour took a short stroll through the garden, admiring the quaint scenery.

Then came the highlight of the day, the specially choreographed live musical, Spring Sensation Dance Performance. The dancers took to the stage gracefully as they performed to traditional and contemporary Chinese tunes, dressed in eye-catching, glittering costumes and matching floral fans. In keeping with the Chinese New Year festivities, the audience were then amazed by the daring stunts performed by the acrobatic lion dance troupe. As a customary practice towards the end, the senior citizens were also presented with mandarin oranges with symbolised good fortune for the new year.

Gina Long Ahmad, Acting Centre Manager, eCurve said, “Reaching out to the community during the festive season is very important to us. We are honoured to commemorate this auspicious occasion with our guests from Persatuan Rumah Amal Murni and it was certainly heart-warming to see the smiles on their faces. Today’s celebration has definitely been a meaningful one and we look forward to spreading more cheer and joy in the future.”

Bringing the joyous day to a close, the Persatuan Rumah Amal Murni received Chinese New Year goodie bags and Ang Pow from eCurve, before making their way to Skaters Dim Sum to enjoy a hearty and delicious Chinese New Year meal.

Throughout the campaign period, eCurve is also giving shoppers the opportunity to redeem festive treats such as an exclusive Fortune Candy Container and Ang Pow packets with a minimum spend of RM188 in a maximum of two receipts.
