First of all, I would like to welcome all of you to the Chinese New Year Gathering organised by Soon Heng Society, with the support of Resident Office and District Council.  CNY Gathering in the form of open house is a tradition of Soon Heng, as we believe that this is more community-friendly.

I also sincerely thank and welcome all of you, especially YB Datuk Francis Harden, YB Senator Dr Sim Kui Hian, Yang berusaha Tuan Residen, Tuan Walikota, fellow heads of department, community leaders, NGOs leaders to the launching ceremony of Sri Aman Division Level Cap Goh Mei Festival, jointly organised by The Resident Office, District Council and Simanggang Soon Heng Society, which we had started since 2010.

Begins from tonight until the real Cap Goh Mei, on 22 February, this stage is for you. Various schools, NGOs and local performance groups will show their talents here. Many of them start growing their talents here decades ago, and now they are figure of their field beyond Simanggang. This is the hope and spirit of Cap Goh Mei that Soon Heng Society hold since century ago.

Development is a continuous and systemic process, which requires total involvement of various parties and segments in a community. With this principle, Soon Heng Society had continuously served for community culture and education development since 122 years ago. In the same manner, we are fortunate to have a people representative like YB Datuk Francis Harden, who is very approachable, caring and sincere, and continuously work silently for the betterment and development of Simanggang.

He is a good partner and friend of Soon Heng Society. Last year, he allocated RM80,000 for Soon Heng’s activity fund and RM 150,000 for our Ciyun Temple upgrading works. This beautiful arch in front of me is part of the upgrading project. He never absent from our Cap Goh Mei procession since 2 decades ago, as he never fail to allocate a beautiful amount of fund for Cap Goh Mei. Soon Heng Society appreciates YB Datuk Francis Harden caring of us and his good relationship with us. I urge fellow Soon Heng’s members and local community to remember this and show our thankful by giving YB Datuk Francis bigger mandates in coming election to ensure him become a full minister in the state cabinet, and enable him to have a more comprehensive blueprint for the development of Simanggang.

At the same time, Soon Heng Society appreciates the enthusiasm and caring of Datuk Francis’s team leader, YB Senator Datuk Dr Sim Kui Hian of our area. Dr Sim and his teammates travelled hundred KM just to be with us, as he said to be with the peoples of Simangggang, where his late father Sim Kheng Hong started his career. I still remember last year, he failed to be with us on the 8^th evening of Chinese New Year in the same occasion as tonight, but he rushed to visit us at the temple the following day before noon. We submitted to him few request, he managed to settle and follow-up it nicely. This is the team that we can trust on. I sincerely propose all of us to give them chances to well serve the peoples.

Tonight, we will launch a campaign of recruiting 500 donors for the vehicle of Deities to be use during Cap Goh Mei procession. I hope we can gain as many supports from the community.

Lastly, I would like to express heartfelt thanks to various parties who have assisted us to make this festival a success. Thank you. Happy new year.

 

 

首先，我感谢大家出席由成邦江顺兴公会主办，并在省公署及县议会配合下举行的春节团拜。开放门户式的团拜是顺兴公会一直以来坚持的传统，我们认为这更亲近群众与埠民。

同时，我也要感谢与欢迎大家，特别是主宾州乡村发展部及房屋部助理部长拿督法兰吉斯、上议员拿督沈桂贤医生、省长、县议会主席、政府长官、各族社区与社团领袖出席今晚的元宵盛会推展礼。从今晚到元宵节当晚，此舞台将呈献精彩节目。目的是营造节庆的欢喜气氛，娱神娱人娱众生，普天同庆，更提供空间于本地学校、社团、歌舞团发挥，进而体现本会所主办的百年元宵游神盛会的内在精神。

各位，地方的进步是须要各方面各司其职，扮演各自的角色，按部就班来成全的。顺兴公会百年以来就坚守立场，为传统文化、族群教育与地方建设而努力。我们感到庆幸这20多年来，我们拥有一名亲民可敬关心民瘼的人民代议士-拿督法兰吉斯哈丁，一直以来努力为美好的成邦江工作。他更是我们顺兴公会的好朋友，单单去年他就拨了八万元为本会活动经费，更拨十五万为慈云阁提升工程，我面前的牌楼即是提升工程的部分成果。二十多年来，他不曾缺席过我们的元宵游神盛会，更对元宵盛会的拨款不曾间断。我希望我们应该感恩，给予他更大的委托，让他成为州内阁正部长，实现成邦江完整发展大蓝图。

同时，我也要感谢上议员沈桂贤医生对本区的关心与热心。他义不容辞，老远来出席本会的团拜。我还记得去年他不能在初八晚上来，初九中午就到慈云阁与顺兴同仁贺岁。我们向他提出几项建议，他都一一为我们上陈传达，并得到良好的跟进。我认为我们应该给予他的团队机会，服务群众。

今晚，我们也为“广召500护法供养慈悲娘娘圣驾出游法座”活动举行推展礼，提供百年难逢的好机缘于十方善信大德，共同发心供养，共沐神恩。每份供养金88元，希望大家发心共修。

最后，我代表公会向各界人士致谢，并祝大家新正如意，平安。
