Don’t know about the Americas but they don’t celebrate in Thailand, Japan and South Korea though.

UAE, and I presume other Arab-Islamic Countries? I mean, we had January 1st and their New Years off. Unless something’s changed.
Texas is. And others. Am I mis-understanding this?

I’m surprised Hawaii doesn’t observe it. The state is close to 40% Asian, a good chunk of whom trace their roots back to the Philippines and other countries that celebrate the holiday

It’s not really a public holiday in California the way the map implies, but I think it should be because many places treat it that way and it is a pretty big deal. I used to live in SF and now live in LA, and it is observed in some small way by pretty much the whole community, and in a bigger way by parts of the community.

Laos and Cambodia surprised me
Why Suriname?
It’s not a public holiday in Japan. Japan switched to the Gregorian calendar during the 1870s and they celebrate on December 31st / January 1st.
Wow California but not even British Columbia!
Japan do not celebrate lunar new year
How come California surprised you? Quite a big Asian population there, with for example the Japantowns and Chinatowns in San Francisco.
Eh. I feel like states and regions really shouldn’t count.
Absolutely in Taiwan.
