About This Image:
Children playing among the ashes of burnt firecrackers on the eve of Chinese New Year. Firecrackers are set off as a symbol of good fortune and prosperity, as it was believed that the loud noise would ward off evil spirits. Today, firecrackers are banned. Singapore imposed a partial ban on firecrackers in March 1970 after they caused a fire that killed 6 and injured 68 people. A total ban was enacted in 1972 after policemen were attacked for preventing unlawful usage of firecrackers.
