A message for the holiday season

The artificial abies amabilis* is set, with the ornaments hung on almost all of the branches and lamps flicking their different shades

In the southern outskirts of Jakarta, the rain pours down perpetually everyday, making the title “Wet Christmas” more suitable for the song “White Christmas”. We order KFC chickens as a substitute for the virtually nonexistent turkeys.

What’s left now? Yeah, a collection of Christmas carols. And don’t forget the jovial mood too.

My favourite day of the year.

Have a Happy Christmas.

*abies amabilis = binomial nomenclature for Christmas tree
