Liven Up This Chinese New Year with Chinese Zodiac Animals Tale

Chinese New Year, also known as the ‘Spring festival’, marks the beginning of the Lunar calendar. In celebration of the Year of the Rabbit, we launched a social media campaign recounting the Chinese zodiac animals’ tale to capture the festive spirit.

Themed as ‘The Great Race’, the campaign narrates the story of the Chinese zodiac calendar, a repeating 12-year cycle represented by 12 animals and how each of them earned their place.

The campaign comprised a series of fun and engaging activities:
