Give to your colleagues? As in people you work with?
Your work colleagues are not your friends, so RM 2 if you absolutely feel you must do this in the office. If you have invited them to your home for CNY then what you would give to any friend of yours.

TS obviously has thoughts on the amount to give to colleagues.... because they actually stated so. Or did you not catch that from the first post?
Ang Pau is not given for the amount but for the blessing. Perhaps you don't know this?
Also, I did preface my post with thoughts with giving to colleagues in the office, or did you not read that?

But sure, you do you in 2025

Strangely enough, I could understand that TS was asking about giving red packets to colleagues that are the same rank as themselves, therefore the dilemma. Couldn't you also? Don't worry, I accept your below par understanding and the lack of critical thinking on your part, especially on an open forum. Type faster than can think and now ego cannot back down.
TS has also now said it also. Please give high amount red packet to your colleagues so that they have lots of blessings. Oh wait, the blessing is for the giver, not the receiver. Like I said, you do you.

See, this is where I said you have reading comprehension problems. My very first post I already said no need to give to work colleagues. I know million-RM bathroom warehouse in PJ giving RM2 red packet to customer walking in.

Must suck to be you, can only react to a post without anything constructive to offer. If RM2 not enough, then what? RM5? Or RM10? RM20? Since RM2 is "a slap in the face" what is the amount you think is the correct flex for TS, who you know nothing financially about, number of colleagues, size of office, or commitments? TS is there to sponsor people's life meh?

And for the third, and please, please let it be the last time..... you do you. If you think RM2 is too low for you then go ahead and do whatever flex you want, to whomever you want. Maybe you could even make a Tiktok of you presenting big value red packet to someone.



genjo Seriously, no need to flex for work colleagues, and then pain in the pocket. Take care of yourself and own family first. And I say again (although you have decided on RM5) RM2 is enough for work colleagues especially so for people who are the same level. (I would actually give more if I had subordinates who support me doing my job to really show appreciation for their support though)

I wanted to make a longer reply post about critical thinking but I really cannot as my mind boggles at your stupidity.

You quoting my post and actually asking where I said don't give angpau just shows your total lack of reading comprehension. Seriously. Replying further to you is pointless since you can't comprehend the logical progression of work colleagues are not your friends and you should only give angpau to friends who you would actually invite to your home for CNY.
