Malaysia’s national zoo threw a bamboo-tastic birthday bash this week for its beloved giant panda duo, Xing Xing and Liang Liang, who turned 17! Born on August 23, 2006, the fuzzy superstars arrived in Malaysia in 2014 as a symbol of friendship between China and Malaysia, celebrating 40 years of diplomatic ties .
Since settling in, the power couple has welcomed three cubs: Nuan Nuan (2015), Yi Yi (2018), and Sheng Yi (2021)—proving that panda parenthood is *always* on trend . Fans flooded social media with emojis as the zoo shared videos of the pandas munching ice cakes and posing for their annual birthday photoshoot.
Fun fact: These fluffy ambassadors are part of China’s “panda diplomacy,” fostering global connections through conservation. Their cubs are set to return to the Chinese mainland as per agreements, keeping the cuddly legacy alive!
