If you’ve celebrated Chinese New Year in Malaysia long enough, you know this feeling.
You think you’re done preparing. Then someone remembers an ingredient or a gift.
Or suddenly realises you need to send something to three different relatives by today. Cue mild panic!
That’s why a recent Chinese New Year video featuring abang Lalamove has been getting knowing laughs from Malaysians who recognise the chaos all too well.
From chill moment to CNY reality check
In the video, abang Lalamove is seen enjoying a brief moment to himself in between deliveries. Festive mood on, CNY song playing, vibes immaculate. Just one of those rare calm moments before the next task.
But as every Malaysian knows, peace during CNY is temporary.
The clip then shifts into what many can relate to during the festive season: moving from one delivery to the next, navigating traffic, and making sure items arrive on time while everyone else is rushing to get things done before reunion dinner.
It’s a simple moment, but one that reflects a bigger truth about celebrating Chinese New Year in Malaysia.
CNY prep is joyful… but hectic
Chinese New Year is all about family, food, and togetherness. But behind the scenes, it’s also:
> Bulk grocery shopping from wholesale markets
> Last-minute forgotten ingredients
> Sending gifts and goodies to relatives in different locations
> Trying to avoid festive traffic jams that somehow start at 7 am
The to-do list never seems to end, and every trip out feels longer than expected.
Reasons Why Malaysians Turn To Lalamove During CNY
That’s where services like Lalamove come in handy during the festive rush.
Instead of making multiple trips yourself, Malaysians use Lalamove to transport large grocery hauls, send items to different homes in one go, or handle urgent last-minute deliveries when time is tight.
During a season where time and energy feel extra precious, having someone else handle the logistics means more moments spent at home, enjoying the celebration with family.
Save time, Save money, Less Stress
This Chinese New Year, Lalamove is positioning itself as your essential festive helper by focusing on three things many people care about most during CNY:
> Time-saving: Get things delivered quickly without leaving the house
