The Barongsai, or Lion Dances performed to celebrate the Chinese New Year, were outlawed in Indonesia until 2000 (in recent years certain regions have begun banning them again.). The Barongsai dragon is said to frighten away demons and misfortune while bringing luck and prosperity to all who make an offering.
