Ox Year thoughts - THE LOVE AND LABOUR OF THE OX


The world loves the ox from ancient times. It has been our beast of burden and a animal which supplies us food. Our creator has indeed created a wonderful animal to be at our disposal. This year of the ox is a good time for us to pay tribute to this special animal.



Malaysian's tourist attraction and a national treasure : a lovely bullock cart as commemorated in a RM2 stamp.



From a newspaper in Baltimore : You can even bring your own ox cart to the beach !!


An ox-mill in India.




The ox cart in Africa - a common labourer animal.



The ox has always been the most important animal in the farming life of China. This is a typical scene in Sichuan.

As the year begins it is good for us to start reflecting on the value of the Ox in human history and lives.
