Pongal 2012



The Indians or rather the Tamils come first. They are celebrating their biggest festival of the year Pongal, Harvest Festival this Saturday 14 January 2012. It is equivalent to the Chinese New Year. The similarities in celebration are family reunion, discard old things, wear new clothes, etc. This festival is celebrated over 3 days whereas CNY is stretched over 15 days.

Here's wishing my Tamil friends,

"Thai Pirandhal Vazhi Pirakkum" (தை பிறந்தால் வழி பிறக்கும்)
literally translated :"the commencement of Thai paves the way for new opportunities"
