Love poems to recite when throwing fruits on Chap Goh Meh, according to Angie Ang

Penang’s romance and marriage consultant, Angie Ang (pix above), says: “When throwing oranges or apples on Chap Goh Meh, one must recite an age-old poem so that the act will be more effective. For women, the poem is:

Tim Leng-Geng (Dragon’s Eyes I Throw)

Ho Boay Keng (A Good Life Will follow)

Tim Ho Kam (Good Oranges I Throw)

T’an Ho Ang (Get Good Husband)

Bachelors should recite this couplet:

Tim Ping Ko (Apples I Throw)

T’an Ho Bo (Get Good Wife)

Tim Chih Thau (Stones I Throw)

Khi Ang-Moh Lau (Bungalow I Will Build.”
