********************************************************
     Following is the translation of the Chinese New Year message delivered by the Chief Executive, Mr John Lee, today (February 16):
     
     Chinese New Year is the festival we eagerly anticipate, a time when every household decorates and prepares to welcome new beginnings.

     As the spirited steed gallops forward, leaving the old year behind, we stand united to embark on a new journey.

     The horse, symbolising speed and stamina, boldly charges ahead, covering vast distances every day. It embodies the tenacity and resilience of Hong Kong people.

     As we step into the Year of the Horse, let us continue to move with agility and steadiness, seizing opportunities, overcoming challenges, and propelling Hong Kong forward.

     My wife and I wish for every sector in Hong Kong to lead the way, for every endeavour to meet with swift success, and for the Year of the Horse to bring good fortune and joy to all.

     (The message is available on the website of the Chief Executive's Office: www.ceo.gov.hk/cny-message/26/en/
