FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PR- 030-12 January 23, 2012 STATEMENT OF MAYOR MICHAEL R. BLOOMBERG ON LUNAR NEW YEAR “The Lunar New Year is a time for renewal, as we look forward to the year ahead and celebrate the proud heritage and culture of New Yorkers of Asian descent across the five boroughs. This New Year is especially exciting because it represents the Year of the Dragon – an auspicious symbol of optimism and promise. That’s exactly the type of future that – together – we’ve helped build for our City. As families come together to exchange red envelopes and commemorate the promise of a new beginning, I want to wish everyone celebrating a happy and prosperous New Year.” MEDIA CONTACT: Stu Loeser / Kamran Mumtaz (212) 788-2958 STAY CONNECTED Twitter YouTube Flickr |
