# “RM20 Only?!”- M’sian Newlyweds Gripe Over Angpau Amount Given By Attendee At Wedding Dinner

A netizen's rant about receiving an RM20-angpau from an attendee at a wedding dinner held at Bukit Bintang went viral online.

According to the Facebook post, the netizen posted a photo of an angpau with an RM20 note and a lengthy letter complaining about how absurd the sum paid to attend a wedding dinner held at a Bukit Bintang hotel is.

"It costs about RM1500 for one table; if you only give us RM20, we will lose a lot!"

The netizen said that even with RM50 angpau, the host also needs to pay extra for the attendee's dinner.

He further emphasized that it is a Chinese tradition that if you are invited to a wedding feast, you must provide angpau even if you are unable to attend.

> **"What can I do with RM20? RM20 can only get one Starbucks!"**

## Netizens: Why are Chinese banquets so toxic?

A quick check on the comment section reveals that not many people agree with the OP.
