Mahjong and karaoke are typical pre-banquet warm up activities at wedding, birthdays, and baby celebratory events. Making some noise brings joyful energy. With the wind tiles of mahjong, your luck is bound to change from bad to good. Karaoke has been awarded the 2004 Ig Nobel Peace Prize, “for providing an entirely new way for people to learn to tolerate each other.” The tremendous popularity of karaoke is greatly due its genius in creating a culturally appropriate platform for Asians to express their emotions.
