The Year of Dog has gone but promised it will be back in 12 months, and today marks the first day of the Year of Pig. According to Chinese Zodiac tradition, Pig is the twelfth of all zodiac animals. It is always associated with wealth and fortune. And pigs have a beautiful personality and are blessed with good fortune in life.


To celebrate the occasion, Yeung Wai Yi & Thomas Sung have invited Chinese community leaders north from Darwin, south to Tasmania, and west to Western Australia to greet us in the New Year of Pig.

And wish you all a very happy and prosperous Year of Pig.
