Dazzling New Year's Eve dinner 

New Year's Eve dinner is a highlight of the New Year, and dumplings are a must-try delicacy. The project teams in Cambodia, Serbia, Bangladesh, Egypt, United Arab Emirates, and other countries all prepared dumplings for the New Year's Eve dinner. The staff made dumplings by themselves, and the children of the UAE staff also joined in to experience the fun of making dumplings! Egyptian employees displayed several Chinese characters that read "Happy New Year" with dumplings.

Experiencing Chinese culture

As a traditional Chinese festival, the Spring Festival is rich in traditional culture.

Project teams in Algeria, UAE, Mozambique, Thailand, and other countries organized activities for foreigners to experience Chinese calligraphy. The local staff as well as children picked up brushes to experience writing Spring Festival couplets and "Fu", showing their achievements in Chinese learning and deepening their understanding of Spring Festival culture. The Malaysian project team hosted a Chinese New Year quiz to popularize the Spring Festival culture.

Teams in Indonesia and the Philippines told local staff about the origins of paper-cutting and arranging Lunar New Year flowers by conducting creative paper-cutting and flower-arranging activities. Cheryl, an Indonesian employee, said happily: "This is not only a new experience for me, but also makes me feel the care and warmth of the company."

Fascinated by traditional Chinese culture, Moyes from Bolivia's Yucumo-San Borja Road Construcion Project, managed to cut out a rich rabbit under the careful instruction of other project staff. And YAYA, a Malaysian employee, showed how to make a rabbit with red paper.
