Thomas T. S. Cheng, Director General of Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Chicago

Dear honorable guests and audience of the Sound of Hope Radio and Global Chinese New Year Spectaculars:

Happy New Year and Wish you a great year of Pig!

The 2006 Show hosted by SOH Radio was a great success. The 2007 Show offers a great opportunity for all Chinese in Midwest to celebrate the New Year and a rare occasion for both Chinese and westerners to appreciate the acclaimed Chinese culture. The SOH Radio's endeavor to promote Chinese culture is admirable. I firmly believe that this well-prepared event will harvest a sweeping success.

Once again, I send my best wish to everyone:

May everyone healthy and happy in the coming New Year!
