有利是逗? I got red packet?

緊係唔係啦! 其實噚日跟朋友去前証交所參加香港貿發局嘅新春reception. 會上有人發言,當然係介紹俾奧地利人知喺香港做生意嘅好處啦!



Of course not! Yesterday my friend brought me to the ex-stock exchange building to attend a Chinese New Year Party organised by the HK Economic and Trade Office.  Some people made speeches about how good it was to do businesses in HK.

* The traditional Chinese performances and Chinese New Year party.

仲有打鼓/ drum performance

太極/ Taichi

中樂表演/ Chinese musical instrument performances

唱歌就…首先係background music傳出好共產嘅旋律,跟住成日有句’巧淵奶’(我國語唔係太好).好似睇緊央視新春文藝晚會咁. 我即刻同朋友澄清喺香港新年冇人唱呢啲歌架.

Singing was... first of all it came with a communist style melody as the background music and the singer sang something about 'bring good luck' (my Mandarin Chinese was not good).  It felt like watching a Chinese New Year show on CCTV , a mainland China tv station.  I had to carify to my friend that no one in HK sang this kind of song in Chinese New Year.

食物就完全失望, 完全冇香港特色(可能喺維也納真係好難搵到),所有嘢食係冷盤,又有壽司九唔搭八.定係佢想show俾人睇香港乜嘢都有得食呢?

Food was disappointing, totally not HK specialities. (maybe it was really hard to find HK things in Vienna).  All were cold dishes and there were also sushi, not related to HK.  I wondered if they wanted to show people could get different kind of world cuisine.

甜品同埋….邊有人咁serve生果架. 唔通要有意頭?

Dessert and... no one serve fruit like this in a buffet..

走嗰陣每人有封利是,裡面係一張牛年運程同一個牛年郵票

When people left, everyone got a red packet with a paper telling you how you would be in 2009 and a HK stamp.

仲有小禮物添/ also a little gift.
