Chinese New Year Message 2015

Chinese New Year is a time to celebrate with our families. It is a time to reflect on the blessings of having a family – to thank our elders for what they have done for us, to appreciate our spouses, to shower love on our children. It is a time to enjoy the simple goodness of family.

So even if we may be busy, travelling or living in far flung lands, unable to come together physically for the New Year reunion, let us make the effort to connect with one another. On this most important festival in the lunar calendar, let us pause and remind ourselves of what truly matters in life, of what it means to belong to a family.

The Union is doing all it can to help MTR staffs build strong families. Strong families are the bedrock of our society. If each of us plays our part, Hong Kong will continue to prosper and do well, not just economically, but as a harmonious and cohesive national family, diverse yet one.

Happy Chinese New Year!
