How the sugarcane plant is believed to have saved the Hokkiens According to Hokkien tradition, long ago during the Chinese New Year period, the Hokkien people were being hunted by enemies. They had nowhere to hide and feared for their lives. They escaped into sugarcane fields and stayed hidden among the tall plants. Because the sugarcane grew thick and high, their enemies could not find them. The Hokkiens survived by hiding there until the danger passed. This happened on the 9th day of the Lunar New Year, which is also the birthday of the Jade Emperor. Since then, the Hokkien people give thanks to the Jade Emperor on this day and use sugarcane during prayers to remember how the plant helped save their ancestors. Even today, many Hokkiens celebrate the 9th day of Lunar New Year with sugarcane as a symbol of protection, gratitude, and good fortune. On 24th February 2026 The bundled sugarcane stalks have just arrived. A vendor purchased them and will put them up for sale at her stall in a few hours.
