Joss Paper Accessories these days…

Qingming Festival is when Chinese people visit the graves or burial grounds of their ancestors, sweep the tombs and offer food, tea, wine, chopsticks, joss paper accessories, and/or libations to the ancestors. And yesterday I companied my mom to Miri to get stuffs for Qingming and I was fascinated by all those joss paper accessories I saw.

Cars, houses, clothing… these are all normal and here’s some odd one I found.

Fastfood collection.

Hot drinks.

P1170238
Bird nest, sharkfin, “Mabtell”, abalone…

Now this one I really… how to say… I wonder if it’s really useful.
Does the decease still bleeds, muscle pain, bitten by mosquitoes and have gastric pains?

奶瓶和奶粉...they expect the deceased babies would put the milk powder into the bottle themselves haha

Atul: 1/500 of the real price? I think the 2 storey detached house paling mahal, about RM80+
