As the Year of the Rabbit hops into 2023, all of us at Malaysiakini would like to wish our readers a happy Chinese New Year.

The Year of the Tiger has continued to be a difficult year not just for Malaysians but for the whole of humanity.

Let’s hope that this lunar new year will see our beloved nation and the world re-emerge from the Covid-19 pandemic.

It has been our privilege and pleasure at Malaysiakini to serve you for yet another year in building a better tomorrow.

We will be working with a skeleton staff over the next few days, recharging our batteries before returning to the fray. We shall be back in full force on Wednesday, Jan 25, to continue giving you more news and views that matter.

Gong Xi Fa Cai!
