STOMPer Terrence was surprised to see a Caucasian man taking put in the Hungry Ghost Festival customs.

Terrence said:

"Caucasian person burning incense papers.

"It is a rare sight to see Caucasians believing in the Chinese "Hungry Ghost Festival".

"Especially in Singapore, this period is known to many as the seventh month where those whom have passed on return to earth from the other world.

"The 'Good brothers' from what people usually say are lost souls whom no one prays for them.

"Participating in such incense burning for these 'lost brothers' would in return provide good luck to the person or company and what they wish for.
