中国有句古语:"百善孝为先"。意思是说,孝敬父母在各种美德之中占第一位。一个人如果连自己的父母都不孝敬,很难想象他会热爱自己的国家和人民。古人也说"老吾老,以及人之老;幼吾幼,以及人之幼",我们不仅要孝敬自己的父母,还应该尊敬长辈;正是秉持着这样的优良传统,翁氏总会第29届新春团拜敬老会于2015年3月1日如期在总会举行,当天到会的宗亲及家属约120多人,席开12桌。
早上八点多,各位理事宗亲纷纷来到总会,大家互致新年问候后,就开始配合默契地准备着敬老会的各项事宜。九时许,在醒狮团喜庆的锣鼓声中,新春敬老会活动拉开了序幕,醒狮队表演了精彩的舞狮节目,财神派发了象征来年好运的"利市",到处洋溢着欢乐喜庆的过年气氛。过后,在总会主席两光宗长带领下,全体宗亲向祖先敬香,祈求祖先保佑翁氏族人阖家平安!身体健康!祭祖仪式之后,财神爷开始向在场的各位宗亲派发发财糖果,伴随着欢快的新春乐曲,活动渐入高潮,接着,主席两光宗长上台致词,他首先向在场的嘉宾和宗亲们拜年,祝他们新年快乐,健康长寿。其次,他衷心感谢各位理事宗亲多年来在会务工作上的支持与贡献,并祝总会会务蒸蒸日上,为弘扬中华文化,做出更大的贡献。
主席致词完后,精彩的节目由此开始。台下宗亲们围坐在一起畅谈,脸上露出了孩子般的笑容,笑在脸上,心里更是春意浓浓。宴会期間,台上艺人及宗亲们演唱了富有新春特色的歌曲,穿插的多项游戏活动,使现场欢笑声此起彼伏,参加者尽兴而归。觥筹交错中大家增进了了解,增强了凝聚力,将幸福和快乐定格在了2015年3月1日午间的那一瞬间。
总会除了在宴会中准备了美味佳肴与会员宗亲同享,同时亦准备每个$60元的红包,派发予61名65岁以上的乐龄宗亲们,总会以最真诚的心,向长辈致敬,感谢他们一路走来,对总会默默的支持。敬老、爱老、养老,是我们中华民族的传统美德,总会每年在新年期间,都宴请我们总会的老宗亲们在这里欢聚一堂,目的是为了感谢长辈对我们晚辈的关心,对总会会务工作的支持,也藉此希望年轻后辈在享受前人努力耕耘所得成果时,更应加以珍惜和爱护总会。
木茁思本,饮水思源,共聚一堂,齐贺新春。愿总会会务蒸蒸日上,更上一层楼。
For the Chinese community, the Mid-Autumn Festival has been a festival to celebrate bountiful harvest in the past year and the reunion of the family. This year, the Women Committee, Recreational Committee and Youth Committee of Ang Shee General Association (ASGA) jointly held its 6th annual celebration of this traditional festival at the Clan Association on the evening of 26 September 2015, with the objective of providing an opportunity for the clansmen to meet with more members of the Weng clan.
Before the official start of the event, President Lian Kwang, in his opening address, welcomed the attendance of fellow clan members and their family members at this event. After which, clan members tucked into the buffet dinner which was prepared by fellow clan members. The atmosphere during dinner was relaxing and lively with fun and interactive activities prepared by the committee to engage everyone present at the event. Some clan members even went on stage later on to sing, while other clan members enjoyed the delectable food together with the excellent view of the full moon. The children also had fun as they carried lanterns around the premises.
At the end of the event, everyone each left with a goodie bag sponsored by the committee members. All members had a memorable and enjoyable night as they spent this traditional "Festival of Reunion" bonding with fellow Weng clansmen.
