Conclusion
Wealth and money are highly valued in Chinese culture. It is therefore very common that people offer money-related greetings in the New Year. However, there are some instances where the recipient won’t necessarily appreciate money sent directly to the recipient’s bank account. Hence, people often send greeting card or ecards most especially those offered by charities.
