yg shares his memories and experiences of making dumplings in the kampong. Although it was a long-drawn affair with many stages to pass through, the end result was made worth it because of the communal spirit that was shared throughout the kampong.

i have fond memories of the dumpling festival because of the kampong spirit which is difficult to replicate in our housing estates. folks who did not know how to make or who did not have the time to make would receive dumplings from the neighbours. those who made would also get dumplings to sample. there would be a lot of exchanging going on and we ended up trying all types and qualities of dumplings.
