Chinese New Year
Hi everybody,
In a few days time there will be a big party in China, celebrating the Chinese New Year (Chūnjié). China enters the year 4704, which is the year of the Pig. Feel like joining the celebrations in your part of the world? Check out some of these web sites:
The Hague: http://www.chineesnieuwjaarfestival.nl
London: http://www.london.gov.uk/mayor/chinese_ny/index.jsp
New-York: http://gonyc.about.com/cs/holidays/a/chinesenewyear.htm
Remember; the first thing you say to your Chinese (business) partner after 18th of February, stands symbol for what you wish him or her for the year to come. So don’t forget to mark the beginning of the new year (18-02-2007) in your calendars!
Have fun and, Xīnnián hăo!
