In this festival traditionally celebrated by Chinese people, I am happy to see Chinese people greet each other with lucky sayings and phrases to wish each other good health, wealth and happiness when they meet. In the beginning of a brand new year in the lunar calendar, I wish that there will be no more chaos and that Hong Kong’s economy will recover. And I pray for my employer’s good health and more blessings throughout the year and beyond.

My wish for Hong Kong this Chinese New Year is prosperity and continued wisdom and blessings for its leaders. For my family, I wish them good health because health is wealth and it is more precious than money. If my whole family is healthy, I consider it wealth, because some people are rich, but their money cannot give them good health and long life. Happy Chinese New Year to everyone!

Having worked here in Hong Kong for many years, I see Hong Kong as a good place, well organised and with fair rules. My wish for Hong Kong this Chinese New Year is that they continue to be what they are now, which is peaceful and no more protests and fighting. I wish all the people of Hong Kong unity and prosperity.

My wish for Hong Kong this Chinese New Year is prosperity. If Hong Kong becomes a prosperous place, we as workers here will benefit from it. The standard of living will improve and our salaries will probably rise to a level that will make our lives and the lives of our families better.

As the Chinese New Year approaches, my wish for Hong Kong is that it maintains its status as a safe place for us Filipinos to work, either as helpers or in other fields. I have been working here for a long time because I feel safe here, not to mention its proximity to our country. I also wish peace and prosperity for Hong Kong and all of us who live and work here.

My wish for Hong Kong this Chinese New Year is for more blessings and prosperity. And as an OFW, may Hong Kong employers be kind and not give their helpers too much work. I hope for an increase in wages.
