当地时间1月30日，斯洛文尼华商会组织当地的华侨华人在华苑餐厅举办了一次热闹的庆新年活动。

On January 30, local time, the Slovenia Chinese Chamber of Commerce organized local overseas Chinese to hold a lively New Year celebration in Chinese Garden Restaurant. 

庆祝活动中，中国驻斯洛文尼亚大使王顺卿和华商会会长季荣强先后致辞并向广大侨胞拜年。妇女会的舞蹈，季如意的笛子独奏，窦雨晨的琵琶独奏，王婷婷的独唱和侨胞表演拉丁舞纷纷为活动助兴。华商会的舞狮表演更是把活动推向了高潮。之后在场的中外人士一块加入了包饺子的行列，以一种传统的方式庆祝新年。

During the celebration, Wang Shunqing, the Chinese ambassador to Slovenia, and Ji Rongqiang, the chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, delivered speeches and wished the overseas Chinese a New Year. The dance of the Women’s Association, Ji Ruyi’s flute solo, Dou Yuchen’s pipa solo, Wang Tingting’s solo and Latin dance performed by overseas Chinese all added to the fun of the event. The lion dance performance by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce pushed the event to a climax. Afterwards, Chinese and foreign people who were present joined the ranks of making dumplings to celebrate the New Year in a traditional way.

华商会承办的这次活动意义深远，加深了华侨华人之间的沟通和交流，弘扬了中华美食文化，在异国他乡的广大侨胞也能深深的感受到春节热闹的气氛。

The event hosted by the Chinese Chamber of Commerce is of far-reaching significance. It has deepened the communication and exchanges between overseas Chinese and promoted Chinese food culture. The vast number of overseas Chinese in foreign countries can also deeply feel the lively atmosphere of the Spring Festival.
