ANG POW MEANS RED PACKET , NOT WHITE UNDERSTAND?

In Chinese culture , red denotes purity, joy, and celebration. Red is the color of happiness and prosperity and is believe to attract good luck. On the other hand white is used only on sad occassion like funeral.
It is almost a common knowledge that when one hand out AngPow(literally meaning red packet)it can't be any other color except red. Anyone having lived in Malaysia long enough will definatelly knows that .
The recent incident where the President of Perkasa hand out money in white envelop at a chinese new year gathering and claiming he does not know, does not hold water.  Surely he can ask around if he is not sure and havent he heard of google.?  Here are some infos on Angpow here  and here . Today's report that he had ran out of red packet. Come on who are you kidding?  If you are planing  a function like this surely you come prepared. You make sure you have more than enough, not just enough packets. Even if you ran out you can surely go to a nearby shop to buy some. You can even get some from any chinese association, I am sure they have some to spare.  Funny thing no word from the so call champion of the chinese on this matter.
