View from the Stage

We are honoured that so many people have gathered to see us today. It is great to see a mixture of people from different walks of life. We have some very important people who have travelled here to celebrate this event with us, including the Chinese Ambassador and the Mayoress of the city. We are thankful for our sponsors who have helped us to put on this event. There are lots of demonstrations taking place today and there is plenty of entertainment and food as well. We hope that people enjoy the activities and learn more about our culture, and that this encourages them to try more new things, and not just at our restaurants. Happy New Year, may you have a prosperous one. Wheng here has been up all morning practicing for today and now she is going to do some traditional Chinese dancing. Let’s get ready to party!
