新春贺辞 NEW YEAR GREETINGS
Chinese New Year Message from the Premier of WA 西澳大利亚州州长新年贺词 I would like to wish the Western Australian Chinese community and Chung Wah Association members a happy and successful Chinese New Year. 2017 was a busy and exciting year and I am looking forward to seeing what 2018, the Year of the Dog, brings to Western Australia. I always enjoy taking part in Chinese New Year celebrations with Western Australia’s Chinese community. The community is always very welcoming and it is both an honour and a joy for Western Australians from all cultural backgrounds to be invited to share in these traditions. Last November, I visited Western Australia’s sister state the Zhejiang Province, China. It was my fourth visit to China and first visit as Premier and, while there, I was delighted to celebrate the 30-year anniversary of our sister state relationship. Chinese Australians have contributed greatly to Western Australia and I look forward to celebrating the Chinese New Year together. I hope the Year of the Dog brings you much peace, prosperity and joy. Gong Xi Fa Cai!
