CE delivers Lunar New Year message (with photos/video)
******************************************************

     Following is the translation of the Lunar New Year message delivered by the Chief Executive, Mr C Y Leung, today (February 18):

     Another Chinese New Year has arrived. It is time to bid farewell to the Year of the Horse and welcome the Year of the Sheep.

     The 12 Chinese zodiac animals represent 12 character types. Sheep are widely seen to be mild and gentle animals living peacefully in groups.

     Last year was no easy ride for Hong Kong. Our society was rife with differences and conflicts. In the coming year, I hope that all people in Hong Kong will take inspiration from the sheep's character and pull together in an accommodating manner to work for Hong Kong's future.

     At the beginning of the Year of the Sheep, we wish every one of you good health, great happiness and a harmonious family life.
