RESOLVED: 1.      This Council - mindful of the Lunar New Year which falls on 29 January - welcomes all our residents who have come to Milton Keynes from Hong Kong, in recent years and salutes the contribution they are already making to our community. 2.      We welcome too our residents of Vietnamese, Taiwanese, Mongolian, Singaporean, Japanese heritage, from mainland China and other East Asian communities, who will also be celebrating the Lunar New Year. The presence of so many different cultures in Milton Keynes is one of the features that makes our city so exciting and enriching a place to live in. 3.      In recognition of the diverse culture of our City, we call on this Council to use the appropriate communications channels to honour the Lunar New Year and celebrate all significant cultural and religious celebrations of our residents.”
