Fire Dragon

From what I've been able to gather online, Man San Fu Tat (万山福德祠) conducted a fire dragon ceremony after a hiatus of a decade. The performance was by 龙狮艺术原流传 (Sar Kong Mun San Fook Tuck Chee Lion Dance Troupe) on 二月初二 (second day of the second month or 1st March in the Western calendar), the day Singapore temples celebrate Tua Pek Kong's birthday. Victor posting on Yesterday.sg has a report: Dance of the Fire Dragon.

The fire dragon ceremony is Cantonese. The most famous one is held in Hongkong at Tai Hung during the Mid Autumn Festival.
