I have not heard that term during the lunar New Year, and I've heard people say Happy New Year in Malaysia hundreds of times.

If you're a native Malay, I will take your word for it that your particular village(which village are you from ?) is peculiar, since that is not the common national phrase.

You don't sound like a native malay.

You have way too many native English joinders to be a Malay.

Are you searching Google for any international phrase that connects to China so that you're not completely wrong about this, even though you were completely wrong about this?
