Every year in the first nine days of the ninth lunar month, overseas Chinese in Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore celebrate the births of the Nine Great Emperors. It's a busy time of solemn ceremonies, when the believers wear traditional Chinese clothes of mourning, eat no meat and pray.
每年的農曆九月朔日至初九，東南亞的泰、馬、新三國華人社會，都慶祝盛大的九皇大帝聖誕，場面熱鬧，儀式隆重，善男信女們一身唐裝素服，茹素齋戒，虔誠禮拜。
