澳大利亚是一个多元文化的社会，透 过特邀专栏作家黄郁婷的镜头和文字，我 们可以了解更多关于西澳的哥萨 克庆祝 端午节的活动，以及更加了解维多利亚州 疏芬山这个迷人的金矿镇。

Save the date !

The Chung Wah event team is busy preparing for the Perth Chinese New Year Fair 2022. For the past decade, this iconic cultural event is a highlight of the Perth calendar. Chung Wah greatly appreciates the chinese new year greetings from the state and local government and well wishes from the Consulate General of the PRC in Perth.

In this issue, we are delighted to share the joy of the Lunar New Year Celebrations. There are some exciting myths and customs and an event listing of the Perth Chinese New Year Fair.

Our guest columnist, Karen HUANG gives an insight into the inaugural Dragon boat festival in Cossack, Western Australia and the gold mining town of Sovereign Hill in Victoria.

我们的常驻专栏作家，药剂师李荣参 先生与我们分享，在夏季天气中该如何保 持健康。作为健康的预防措施，在我们刚 刚度过的一系列假期之后，傅琼绪医师从 中医的角度提供了有关预防“过节病”的建 议。

Staying healthy and not over-indulging is important during the festive season. We have an article from Yongsim LEE on Stress Resilience. Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor, Julia FU talks about how to avoid becoming sick over the holidays.

我们的历史 顾问邝彩玲女 士 也报 道 了在卡拉卡塔 公墓新建的东 珀斯 纪念花 园所举 行 的揭幕 典 礼 。文 章中叙 述了典 礼前后一些有趣的点滴，相信我们资深的 中华会员们会很感兴趣。

Our Chung Wah Honorary Historical Advisor, Kaylene POON reports on the unveiling of the East Perth Memorial Garden at Karrakatta.

There are some stories that would interest our senior members.

最 后必 须 在 此 嘱 咐 各 位，夏 天 炎 热 的天 气 里不 要忘记补充 水分和 防 晒 。我 们期待在已经安排好的各类夏季活动中 见到您。

Last but not least, don’t forget to stay hydrated and be sun smart, as we are looking forward to seeing you in our upcoming Summer events.

在此預祝各位新年快樂。

Wishing you a Happy Lunar New Year.

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE 会长寄语

Dear Members,

亲爱的中华会馆会员们：

Finishing the bowl of glutinous rice balls to mark the winter solstice celebration, we are not far off welcoming the new year. This coming year of the Tiger marks the new challenge of opening up after the start of the pandemic and inevitably connecting to the rest of the world.

吃完冬至的汤圆，我们即将迎接新的一年。来 年的虎年，标志着我们在疫情大流行后、即将开放 国门的新挑战。无可避免的，我们需要开启跟世界 的联系。

Under the leadership of Teresa Tan, the Chung Wah Chinese Orchestra successfully organised the 2021 Guzheng Festival, with a series of three events. The Grand Guzheng Ensemble finale was again the landmark event of the festival. Set amongst the historic architecture of the University of Western Australia, Claremont Campus, it was a stunning scene to see over one hundred guzheng strings resonating with music. We sincerely appreciate the support from all participants and their families and volunteers, as well as the sponsors who contributed so much to the success of the event.

由王惠兰带领的中华华乐团，也在2021年成功 地举办了第二届古筝节。这次共举办了3场系列活 动。百人古筝大汇演的压轴演出，是连续第二年成 为具有里程碑意义的盛会。以西澳大学克莱蒙特校 区的历史建筑为舞台背景，百人齐奏，琴弦共鸣，令 人叹为观止。我们衷心感谢所有参与者及其家人、 工作人员和志愿者的支持，以及为活动的成功做出 贡献的媒体和赞助商。

The Chung Wah Dragon and Lion Dance troupe have again made the Chung Wah family proud, winning silver at the International KSK Lion Dance Music Competition in October 2021. As the peak group to represent Australia, their deafening drum beats and clashes of cymbals won the heart of the judges virtually.

The Chung Wah Youth sub-committee has been working closely with the Western Australia Chinese Chamber of Commerce, jointly organising the end-of-the-year event at the Northbridge Hotel in November 2021. It has been a great year of collaboration between the two organisations, joining forces to benefit Chinese youth to enrich their knowledge and experience.

It provides networking opportunities to learn from one another, through social settings. We would like to express our gratitude towards the series of speakers who have generously shared their knowledge and experience.

Dr Hua Li, principal of Chung Wah Chinese School, Perth and Atwell campuses, won the “Best Principals Award’ from the Modern Languages Teachers’ Association (MLTAWA) in October 2021. Chung Wah Chinese School has overcome the challenge of COVID-19 in the last two years, while still managing to maintain the highest standards of education for their students. We encourage you to contact our chinese schools for 2022 student enrolments.

For over thirty years, Mrs. Theresa Kwok has been leading Chung Wah Community and Aged Care and is well-recognised as an advocate in raising awareness for the unique challenges new migrants and seniors face from culturally and linguistically diverse (CaLD) backgrounds. At the annual WA Seniors Awards ceremony, held at ANZAC House on 25 November 2021, Theresa was presented with a medal and certificate in recognition as the WA Seniors Advocate of the Year. The event was held in conjunction with the Western Australian State Government and the Council on the Ageing WA (COTA). Theresa is the first winner in this new Seniors Award category.

We are very grateful for her service and proud of her achievement.

Under her leadership, the Chung Wah Community Care team has made a difference to our CaLD community, especially to our Chinese Seniors.

The Chung Wah Hall and Cultural Centre in Balcatta have also gone through some improvements. The toilets at Chung Wah Hall have been refurbished to better facilitate the usability of the venue. The high windows at the Chung Wah Cultural Centre have been tinted to reduce the light and heat, and there are also solar panels installed to facilitate green energy usage. This would not have happened without the support of the Office of Multicultural Interests’ (OMI) Community Capital Works Fund.

Last but not least, on behalf of the Chung Wah Executive Committee, I would like to express our deepest gratitude for our Member’s support, entrusting us for another term in the leadership of Chung Wah Association.

We will strive to serve our members better, and maintain Chung Wah Association as the peak body for the Chinese Community in Western Australia.

Wishing you all the best of health, and a peaceful year ahead.

Thank you.

中华会馆青年部一直与西澳华人总商会紧密合 作，并于2021年11月在北桥酒店成功举办年末联谊 活动。两组织合作联手，让华裔青年在丰富他们的 知识和经验之余，更提供了通过社交环境相互学习 的交流机会。我们对慷慨地分享知识和经验的系列 演讲者表示衷心的谢意。 2021年10月，李华博士获得了MALTWA颁发的“ 最佳校长奖”，肯定了她所付出了巨大的努力。中华 中文学校在过去两年中不仅克服了COVID-19的挑 战，更是保持了为学生提供最高标准的教育。我们 鼓励家长与学校联系安排2022年入学事宜。 卅多年来，郭郑素雯女士一直领导着中华社区 服务部，并被公认为引领大众关心来自不同文化和 语言背景的新移民和老年者、所面临的特殊挑战的 倡导者。2021年11月25日，在澳新军团之家举行的 年度西澳长者颁奖典礼上，郭太荣获奖章和证书， 以表 彰 年度 西澳长者代言人。西澳 老 龄化 委员会 (COTA)。郭郑素雯女士是这个新类别的第一位获奖 者。我们非常感谢她的服务，并为她的成就感到自 豪。在她的领导下，中华社区服务部的团队为我们 的文化和语言多元社区带来了改变，尤其是针对华 裔长者。 中华会馆和巴尔卡塔中心也进行了一些翻新工 程：中华会馆现在有了崭新的厕所，让使用者更方 便了；中华文化中心的高窗贴了深色隔热膜以抵挡 烈日曝晒，并安装了太阳能板促进绿能使用。如果 没有社区资本补助金的支持，这些翻新工作就无法 施行，它让社区直接受益于最先进的设施。 最后，我偕同中华会馆理事团队们，会对会员 们的支持表示最深切的感谢，在你们的委托让我们 得以继续连任。我们将会更努力、更好地为会员服 务，并维护中华会馆作为西澳华人社区最高团体的 荣耀。 祝大家身体健康，岁岁平安。 感谢你。

新年贺辞 值此 2022 新年及农历虎年到来之际，我谨代表中国驻珀斯

2021 was a remarkable year. We ushered in the 100th anniversary of the Communist Party of China. China has achieved its first centennial goal of building a moderately prosperous society. 2021 was also the first year of the “14th Five-Year Plan”. At the recently held Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, it was emphasised that China will strive towards a shared future that is prosperous, clean and beautiful, a world of lasting peace, openness and tolerance.

总领馆，向西澳华侨华人致以节日问候和良好祝福！

I wish to extend my heartfelt gratitude and deepest respect to the Chinese community in Western Australia and those people from all walks of life who support the friendly exchange between China and Western Australia. In the new year, the Chinese Consulate General in Perth will continue to provide attentive service to everyone based on the ideal of “diplomacy for the people”.

I wish you all good health, peace and happiness for your family!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 谨贺新年

Story of “Nian” A long long time ago in ancient China, there was a mythical creature called ‘Nian’. It is believed that Nian rampaged amongst the villages on the last day of the year, preying on people and livestock. The suffering villagers tried to find ways to fight against the beast.

16

They found out that the creature feared the colour red, bright lights and loud noises. Hence, on Chinese new years eve, everyone started to secure their front door with red coloured wooden planks made of peach wood and lit bonfires along the paths. They also made loud noises with sticks and pots, and lit fire-crackers to repel the beast.

All the families in the village huddled together and stayed up late with the house lights on to guard their property and livestock. The strategy seemed to ward off Nian..

Thereafter it became a custom, that on the last day of the lunar new year, people hung up red couplets, red lanterns and lit firecrackers. They had a family reunion dinner, kept the lights on and stayed up late to keep safe from Nian. This eventually spread to almost every other village, and thus developed into an important tradition for Chinese people to celebrate Lunar New Year’s eve.

年兽 by 刘 冠宇 (https://www.behance.net/gallery/71885051/_)

年兽的故事以及除夕夜习俗的由来 很久很久以前，在中国古代有一种神话生物，叫做“年”。相信在一年的最后一天，“年”会 在村子里肆虐，捕食人畜。村庄饱受年兽施虐之苦，并试图找到对抗它的方法。 通过仔细观察，他们发现年兽害怕红色、刺眼的灯光和巨大的噪音。于是除夕夜，大家 开始用红色的桃木板固定大门前，并沿年兽行径点起篝火。他们还用棍棒和锅子敲打大声喧 哗，点燃鞭炮发出响声以阻止它的到来。全庄各户都把家人都聚集一起守夜，并确保灯火通 明，留守着在家里保护他们的财产和牲畜。这个战略似乎奏效了，年兽果然不敢出现施虐了。 从此就成了一种习俗，在一年的最后一天，人们贴红对联、挂红灯笼、燃放鞭炮、团圆吃 饭、通宵守夜，以祈求平安。这最终传播到几乎所有其他村庄，从而发展成为华人庆祝农历除 夕的传统习俗。

T

he Spring Festival is the largest festival in China. It starts on the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar and continues until the fifteenth of the first month of the lunar calendar. It is also known as “Guo Nian” (Celebrating the New Year).

During the Spring Festival, the main traditions are to remove the old and welcome the new, pay respects to the ancestors, repel evil spirits, and pray for a good harvest. There are also celebrations for the gods of the heavens and earth and blessings for the new year. There are many traditional customs, such as putting up red couplets, staying up on new years eve, family reunion dinner and visiting friends and relatives. However, chinese people from different areas have their own particular customs. For example, in Guangdong, there is a saying, “on the twenty-eighth of December, wash off all the dirt”, which means that on the 28th day of the lunar calendar, the whole family should stay at home to clean up, remove old and unwanted items and put up new couplets/sayings to welcome the new year.

On the first day of the new year, many villages and towns begin to welcome the blessings of the Spring Festival at dawn.

They worship Tai Sui and the gods and there will be fireworks to send out the old year and usher in the new year.

The second day of the Lunar New Year marks the true beginning of the year (“Kai Nian”) as usual chores commences.

People make fish dishes to worship the gods and ancestors. Starting from the second day of the Lunar New Year, is the time for visiting relatives and friends for New Year’s greetings, and of course, bringing gifts from the heart is indispensable. The use of red elements within the gifts that represent prosperity, the big mandarin and red packet which symbolises good luck and good intentions is also a must have.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year sacrifices are offered to the God

of Wealth. On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, shops and restaurants officially resume business, and firecrackers are set off. The seventh day is ‘People’s day’, and people generally do not go out. The eighth day of the new year is the start of the workday, employers usually distribute hong bao (red envelopes) with lucky money to their employees, which symbolises prosperity and luck for the business in the coming year.

Visiting relatives and friends is usually concluded before the eighth day of the new year. From the eighth day of the new year (some places start on the second day of the new year), large celebrations and prayers are held, accompanied by cultural performances.

The etiquette ritual is primary of welcoming the gods, parading the statues of deities and making offerings, showing appreciation towards the blessing from the ancestors, as well as deities of heaven and earth. These rituals are meant to exorcise evil spirits in protection of the locality, praying for good weather, prosperity and peace in the year to come.

The formation of these rituals of the Spring Festival is an accumulation and cohesion of folk beliefs through the generations of the Chinese. This is an important cultural legacy that denotes the Chinese identity.

春

传统过年习俗

节，狭义上是指农历正月初一，广义上是指 农历正月初一至正月十五。春节又称过年， 在历史发展中，杂糅了多地多种民俗为一体，形成 了一些较为固定的风俗习惯。春节期间均以除旧 布新、拜神祭祖、驱邪攘灾、祈求丰年为主要贺岁 内容，形式丰富多彩，带有浓郁的各地域特色。

谨贺新年 HAPPY NEW YEAR

Chinese New Year Traditions

春节是敦亲祀祖、祭祝祈年的日子，祭祀活动依循 祖上规矩，进贡上香，叩拜行礼，庄重肃穆，一丝不苟。 拜神祭祖习俗盛行于南方沿海一带，承袭古时习俗，春 节期间多地有举行隆重盛大的报祭天地神恩、迎禧祈福 等祭祝祈年活动，内容丰富多彩，热闹喜庆，年味浓郁。 春节习俗活动甚多，贴年红、守岁、吃团年饭、拜 年等各地都有之，但因风土人情的不同，细微处又各 有其特色。就广东而言，可分为粤中（珠三角）、粤西、 粤北、粤东（潮汕、客家）几大地域，各具人情风韵。广 东有一句俗语“年廿八，洗邋遢”，意思是说在农历十二 月二十八日这一天全家人要留在家里打扫卫生，除旧 布新，贴年红（挥春），迎接新年。年末的除夕，祭祖、 吃年饭、守岁和逛花市是老广辞旧迎新的几件大事。 新年初一，不少乡镇农村从凌晨就开始迎春接福、 拜祭太岁以众神，鞭炮齐响，辞旧岁、迎新年等各种庆 贺新春活动达于高潮。大年初二是开年日，做鱼肉碗菜 祭奉神灵祖先，然后吃开年饭；年初二这天也是出嫁女 儿回娘家的日子，要夫婿同行，所以俗称“迎婿日”。从年 初二开始走亲访友拜年，拜年当然少不了代表着心意 的礼包，礼包除了要有代表红红火火的红色元素以外， 寓意大吉大利的大桔和利利是是好意头。

17

大年初四是祭财神的日子。大年初六，商店酒楼才 正式开张营业，而且要大放鞭炮，不亚于除夕的境况。 初七是人日，一般不外出拜年。年初八是开工日，派发 开工利是，是广东老板过年后第一天上班首要做的事； 利是利是，寓意着一年都能利利是是，大红大紫。 年初八前走亲访友拜年基本完毕，从年初八起（ 有的地方从年初二开始）便陆续举行隆重的群体大型 祭祝祈年活动，期间伴以各种民俗文化表演节目，礼俗 内容主要是迎神、游神、祭礼，主旨是酬谢天地神祖恩 德，净土驱邪、保境平安，祈祷风调雨顺、百业兴旺、国 泰民安，节庆活动一直持续到正月十五或十九才结束。 （潮汕称“游神赛会”、“营老爷”，粤西称“游老爷”、“游 菩萨”、“年例”，福州称“迎神”） 春节民俗的形成与定型，是中华民族历史文化长 期积淀凝聚的过程，在传承发展中承载了丰厚的历史 文化底蕴。 截自：百度百科 - 春节习俗

It is a mixed year in which things seem to be brighter than they are, and they must be cautious and exceptionally realistic when they make promises and guarantees for others. 这是一个喜忧参半的年份，事情似乎比实际情 况要好得多，他们在为他人做出承诺和保证时必须 谨慎且格外现实。

People born in the Year of the Tiger can expect an uneventful year, but may receive some unexpected rewards.

18

A breakthrough in your career or money is predicted in the middle of Spring. This will raise great expectations for the Tiger, which is why many other things will get pushed to the sideline.

After mid 2022, there are two major changes predicted.

Not only will certain people defy your new priorities, Tigers can also expect a significant change in the family or social circle that will further encourage them to rethink what is essential.

Tigers can no longer take the middle ground this time because it simply won’t be possible. Some stormy periods also await them in the field of love. If you are a single Tiger, you will later feel sorry for someone you let go of in 2022. 属虎者将迎来平静的一年，通过一些投 机和意外收益可能会出现收益。 毫无疑问，属虎者将会记住2022年，因 为他们的生活将会迎来两次的转折。预计你 的事业或金钱会在春季中期取得突破。这件 事会让属虎者寄予厚望，这就是为什么许多其 他事情会被搁置一旁的原因。预计第二次转 折将在2022年年中之后不久。 不仅某些人会违抗你的新优先事项，而 且猛虎们也可以期待家庭或社交圈的重大变 化，这将进一步鼓励他们重新思考什么是必 不可少的。属虎者这次不能再采取一些中间 立场，因为这几乎根本不可能。他们可能已经 猜到在爱情的领域中，会有一些风雨飘摇的 时期在等着他们。如果你是单身属虎者，那么 你以后会为你在2022年放手的人感到难过。

It is a good year in which Dragons will partially recover lost earnings. 对于属龙者，2022是一个好年头，他们将会有 机会收复部分损失的收入。

1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001, 2013 It will be a challenging year for Snakes, in which their plans advance with difficulty, due to the failing of others to keep the promises they made. 这是属蛇者充满挑战的一年，他们的计划，因 为他人的不信守诺言，而艰难推进。

It is a happy and great year for the Rooster.

Things will go smoothly, and promotions and recognition are likely to appear. 这 将 是 对于属 鸡 者 快 乐 人快 乐 而 伟大 的 一 年。事情会很顺利，并会出现升职机会以及获得认 可。

1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006, 2018.

It will be a lucky year for all Dog’s business activities. In 2022, Dogs will recover their power, status and popularity. 属狗者今年在商业活动上来说，今年似乎是 幸运的一年。2022年，属狗的你将恢复力量、地位 和人气。

1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019.

In 2022, Pigs will work hard, but receive rewards and gratitude for all their efforts. 2022 is the year when Pig will receive many blessings.

2022年，猪们会努力工作，但必须知道并不是所有 的努力都会得到回报和感激。2022年是猪会收到很 多祝福的一年。

The Inaugural Cossack Dragon Boat Festival

首届哥萨克端午节龙舟竞赛

26

Dragon boat racing 龍舟競賽 (by CITIC Pacific Mining)

O

n October 2nd and 3rd, 2021, the inaugural Dragon Boat Festival was held in the Cossack Historic Town of the Pilbara Region.

Thousands of people from Karratha, Port Hedland, and nearby towns gathered to celebrate the two-day festival.

“At the peak of the pearling era in Cossack, many Europeans, Asians, and Aboriginals settled in town; this part of the history faded in the last few centuries since cyclones destroyed the town,” said Bruce Jorgensen, CEO of the Ngarluma Yindjibarndi Foundation Ltd (NYFL). He believes that this iconic Dragon Boat Festival would revive the multicultural society of the past, restore the town to its former glory, and spread the story of Northwest Australia to more people.

The Dragon Boat Festival is generally held in the fifth month of the lunar calendar. However, due to the local tides this year, NYFL decided to hold the dragon boat race in October. Many

vital guests and corporate representatives attended the opening ceremony, which included a lion dance performance by the Yaolin Association and the “Dragon Boat Eye Dotting Ceremony”. During the Eye Dotting Ceremony, the dragon boats’ eyes were dotted with the cinnabar pen at a selected auspicious time. It is widely believed that this ceremony is to consecrate the dragon boat by summoning the dragon’s spirit to the boat, blessing it for a peaceful and safe journey. Mr. Chen Wei Ng, Managing Director of Tutt Bryant Group, made an inspiring opening ceremony speech that recounted

021年10月2、3日的周末，首届端午龙舟活动于西北澳的 哥萨克历史小镇上举办，吸引了上千名来自卡拉萨、黑德 兰港及附近城镇的民众，参与这场为期两天的庆典。

27

本次活动主要由当地的原住民协会Ngarluma Yindjibarndi Foundation Ltd (NYFL)主 办，协会执行长Bruce Jorgensen 表示，哥萨克小镇当年在珍珠业鼎盛时期，聚集了欧洲 人、亚洲人及澳洲原住民在此发展事业且定居，而这段历史却在小镇被颱风摧毁后的几世纪 来，逐渐被人们淡忘。他相信，这项极具代表性的华人庆典，不仅能重现当年的多元文化社 会，更能让这个历史小镇恢复光彩，并藉此让更多人知道西北澳的故事。

NYFL organisers and Chinese representatives 協會主辦方及華人代表(by Ngaardia Media)

the history of the Cossack Harbour (known as Tien Tsin Harbour back then) and the tradition of the Eye Dotting Ceremony.

The highlight of the festival was the dragon boat race, held on the 3rd of October. Teams from mining corporations, local community groups, and a team representing the Town of Port Hedland assembled for the race. Some of the competitors were expert paddlers living in the northwest of Australia, who had previously participated in international dragon boat races. However, for many residents of Northwest Australia, this was their first time experiencing a dragon boat race. It was a valuable opportunity for them to learn about Chinese culture and traditions. The Yaolin Association opened the championship competition with another Lion Dance performance. After the event, it was announced that a Cossack Dragon Boat Club will be formed to keep the passion for dragon boat racing alight. We expect that the Cossack Dragon Boat team will represent the Pilbara region in many competitions to come.

Australian multiculturalism is present and transcends all locations, regardless of how remote or isolated they are. To survive in the regional area, multiculturalism should be allowed to grow and thrive. We must trust and rely on one another to support all diverse cultures.

We at Chung Wah would like to thank the NYFL Aboriginal Association for their support in hosting the 2021 Cossack Dragon Boat Festival. We are also grateful to the Traditional Owners of this land, who have accepted us and shared their resources with great generosity.

端午节活动普遍于农曆五月举行，然而考量到当地潮汐的日期和时 间，NYFL决定在今年的10月举办这场龙舟竞赛。许多重要嘉宾及企业代 表出席了10月2日星期六的开幕晚宴，当晚安排了 “龙舟点睛开光仪 式” 、舞狮表演，及一系列的现场演出。龙舟点睛仪式是选定一 个良辰吉时，用朱砂笔为龙舟画上眼睛，据说这项仪式是为了 让龙神附身到龙舟船身上，为龙舟祈求平安，保佑出船能够 一切顺利。当晚的开幕仪式有幸邀请到Tutt Bryant集团董 事总经理Chen Wei Ng 出席致辞，为嘉宾们讲述哥萨克 港口的历史 (当年称之为 “天津港 (Tien Tsin)” ，并为今年 的所有龙舟点睛开光。 10月3日星期日当天的活动则是这次龙舟节庆的重 头戏 –龙舟竞赛。当日报名参赛的队伍不仅有当地矿业 公司、当地社区团体的代表队，还有黑德兰港地方政府 组成的代表队前来参与龙舟竞赛。对于许多西北澳的居 民而言，这一天是他们首次亲眼目睹龙舟竞赛，也藉此 瞭解到华人的传统文化习俗。除了精彩刺激的龙舟竞赛 之外，友联舞狮团也带来了另一场演出。这次的端午节活 动，聚集了居住于西北澳的龙舟好手们，当天比赛过后，由 于大家对于龙舟运动的热情，当天还正式成立了哥萨克龙舟 队，期望在未来能代表皮尔巴拉区参与各种国内外的竞赛。

从这两天的活动中，我们看见了澳洲对于多元文化的热情及兴趣， 这些热情并没有因为我们身处偏远地区而减少；相反地，为了在这个地区生存下去，我 们必须比以往更加相互信任和依赖，支持所有不同的文化。我们对于NYFL原住民协会今年主 办端午节龙舟竞赛这个活动感到万分荣幸。感谢原住民对移民族群的包容，接纳我们来到这 片土地上居住，并与我们分享著这片土地的资源。

The Gold Mining Town Behind the Lens 镜头之后的金矿镇

S

overeign Hill is one of the most popular tourist hotspots in Australia. Located in Ballarat, Victoria, this heritage site is well maintained and preserved to give visitors an authentic insight into the lives of miners in the past.

Experience rushing the gold 淘金體驗

Empire Bowling Saloon 保齡球館

A Chinese Village once stood in the town of Ballarat. It had no proper buildings - just simple tents for gold diggers and a few wooden units for a grocery store and a pharmacy.

Each tent housed a single bed, a hoe to dig the gold, a few pieces of cutlery for one person, and some ancestral tablets. The Chinese Regulation Act, announcements about License Fees, and some advertisements from the grocery store and pharmacy were pinned on a notice board for everyone to see. These Chinese ancestors did not have much, but were still brave enough to leave their hometowns, come alone to an unknown land, and build a new life for themselves. They faced huge language barriers and unfair treatments, but they stood strong and left a great legacy for future generations to look back on.

In mid-October 2021, SBS aired the first season of New Gold Mountain - a miniseries filmed in Ballarat, Victoria, that reimagines life in a gold-mining town among Chinese, Europeans and Indigenous people. Although there are only four episodes in the first season, the series clearly depicts the unfair treatment of ethnic groups and gender during that era. The series revolves around the murder of European woman living in Ballarat, who was wearing Chinese clothing. As European officials suspected that the Indigenous people were behind the crime, the Indigenous representative, Hatti, asked Wei-Shing Leung, a Chinese manager to help prove their innocence.

However, Leung replied, “white people aren’t going to listen to me anymore than you.”

Leung’s short response shows the distinct hierarchy among the Europeans, Aborigines and Chinese, in which the Aborigines and Chinese are seen as inferior.

In addition to racial inequality, the dialogue between Lei Zhang and Mrs. Roberts also shows the family and social pressures that women used to suffer in that era.

These two women are both very capable and independent, but Zhang’s father keeps pressuring her to return home immediately to marry and carry on her ‘woman’s responsibility’. Ms. Roberts, a journalist, was ridiculed by many of the men in town for her profession and enthusiasm at her career.

“Back home, we may have disagreements, but this is a new land, a fresh beginning.”

This sentence explains for many migrants those who traveled such long journey to Australia. It also expresses the feelings for the migrants nowadays; we left our hometown for different reasons and chose to live in Australia. For us, this is a new opportunity and a new life, but we also face new problems.

notice for Chinese 華人告示海報

镇上有一区华人聚落，没有华丽的建筑，矿工的住处 都是简陋的帐棚，帐篷内只有基本的家具，像是一张小床、 一把用来凿矿的锄头、一人用的碗筷餐具，或是自家的祖先 牌位。华人聚落裡的告示牌，张贴着华人规范法案、挖金矿 执照费用的通知书、药行及杂货店的宣传单。走在华人聚落 裡，探访每一个不同的帐篷、药行及商店时，我不禁想着当 年这些飘洋过海的华人祖先，是如此的勇敢及坚强，一个人 离乡背井前往澳大利亚，在充满着语言隔阂的环境下生活 着。即便是面对不公平的法令，也依然坚毅地在这块土地上 生存，并为后代留下了这些无价的历史遗产。 2021年10月中旬，SBS电视台上映了《新金山》(New Gold Mountain) 系列第一季，这部迷你剧就是在维多利亚 州的巴拉瑞特拍摄，重新呈现了当年华人、欧洲人及原住民 之间的淘金镇生活。虽然只有四集，但是故事内容却透露了 当时各族群及性别上所受到的不公平待遇。故事围绕在一个 身穿华人服飾的欧洲女性凶杀案，在寻找犯人的过程中，由 于线索曾一度指向原住民，原住民代表哈蒂希望华人矿工管 理者梁伟成能够协助他们证明原住民的清白，然而在剧中， 梁伟成回答她：“白人不会更听我的話。”短短的几句对话， 表明了当年欧洲人、原住民及华人之间的地位，也演出了身 为原住民及华人的无力感。除了种族上的不平等之外，剧中 张蕾与罗伯兹夫人的对话也呈现了早期女性遭受到的家庭及 社会压力，剧中这两位女性都相当有能力且非常独立自主， 然而张蕾的父亲不断地施加压力，逼迫她即刻返乡成亲、传 宗接代；而身为记者的罗伯兹夫人，则一直受到矿镇上许多 男性对她的职业及工作热忱的嘲讽。 “在我们的家乡，也许存在了许多异议和不认同。但澳 大利亚，是新的土地，一个崭新的开始。” 剧中这一句话， 写出了当年离乡背井来到澳大利亚淘金的礦工心声。也写 出不少现代移民的心声，我们因为不同原因，离开了 自己的家乡，选择来到澳大利亚生活，对我们而 言，这裡是新的机会和新的生活，但也面临新 的难题。

Stress resilience for this silly season 提升节庆期间的抗压能力

t’s been said that the gut is the body’s second brain. After venturing hundreds of millions of dollars in research such as the Human Microbiome Project (HMP) and Metagenomics of the Human Intestinal Tract (MetaHIT), it is exciting to see that science has finally recognised the connection between the digestive system, mood, health and even the way we think. Under the paradigm of ‘all diseases start in the gut, we are going to discuss 3 tips on how to support our gut health to build resilience and cope with stress in the upcoming silly season.

1. Detox the gut Wrong foods can feed harmful organisms and trigger inflammatory responses.

Toxins such as pesticides, heavy metals and chemicals can interfere with normal body processes, mimicking hormones or neurotransmitters and blocking the gut responses. The key goal of detoxifying is to reduce our toxin burden while enhancing the waste elimination process. It also means to identify and remove the offending foods. Specific herbs and nutrients such as spirulina, milk thistle, green tea, specific amino acids (e.g., cysteine, glycine and glutamine) and soluble dietary fibre are suitable as regular ‘spring clean’ detox for those who have overindulged on food or drink (especially alcohol, refined and processed foods containing additives, preservatives, artificial sweeteners and flavours) during or after the Chinese New Year period.

36

Furthermore, simple measures to reduce dietary and environmental toxins such as avoiding dirty dozen foods (12 fruits and vegetables that have an alarming amount of pesticides) can help to relieve the toxic burden (1).

2. Rebalance gut bacteria with strainspecific probiotics The gut and brain communicate through the microbiota-gut-brain axis that involves the vagus nerve (2), which connects our digestive system and organs to the brain.

When the gut bacteria are disrupted through diet, antibiotics, and lifestyle, they send the wrong signals to the brain through the vagus nerve. In one of the revolutionizing research discoveries, Zheng et al demonstrated that imbalanced gut bacteria can cause stress and depression (3)(4)(5). In order to improve the mechanism of resiliency, three strain-specific probiotics have been shown to restore and support gut microbiota composition and function.

They are • Lactobacillus rhamnosus (LGG®) • Saccharomyces cerevisiae (boulardii) • Bifidobacterium animalis ssp lactis (BB-12®)

Whereas, Lactobacillus paracasei Lpc-37 and Lactobacillus plantarum 299v have been shown to support the neuroendocrine system by lowering cortisol (stress hormone) during times of stress.

3. Power of food on mood Whilst supplementing probiotics to modulate gut-brain connection, we also need prebiotic (foods for good gut bacteria) to encourage the growth of beneficial microorganisms in the gut. These dietary fibres (diagram 1) improve the gut bacteria diversity (6)(7). Eating real food may help reduce stress responses. For example, the Modified Mediterranean Diet (diagram 2), which is rich in vegetables, fruit, fish, eggs and olive oil has been shown to reduce stress and depressive symptoms in adults.

On the other hand, fried food, fast-food, processed meats and sugary drinks can cause anxiety (8).

Microbiome Enhancing Foods FOS & Inulin

Resitant Starch

Fibre

Polyphenols

Other Prebiotic Foods

Chicory root Garlic Jerusalem artichoke Leek Onion Dandelion greens Asparagus Banana Barley Wheat Sugar beet Honey Tomato Rye

Potato, roasted, cooled Bananas, green Cashew nuts Banana, ripe Rolled oats, uncooked Potato, steamed and cooled White beans Lentils, cooked

Flaxseeds Vegetables Fruit Wholegrains

Blueberries Strawberries Peaches Plums Grapeseed extract Cranberry extract Resveratrol Tea Cocoa Chocolate

Kiwi fruit Beetroot Fennel bulb Green peas Snow peas Sweet corn Savoy cabbage Chickpeas Red kidney beans Soybeans Cashews, pistachio nuts Peaches Watermelon Grapefruit Pomogranate Dried fruits (eg dates, figs)

In conclusion, during the Chinese New Year period, we may have various social gatherings, family and friends reunions. It may mean late nights and overindulgence in feasts. We need to be mindful of how our gut health may impact our mood and resilience. Cutting down processed food, fast food and fried food, supplementing with probiotics and eating real food may help to regulate our mood in the Chinese New Year period.

有

人说肠道是人体的第二大脑。在进行 了人类微生物组计划(HMP)和人类肠 道宏基因组学 (MetaHIT) 等数亿美元的研 究后，令人兴奋的是，科学终于认识到消化 系统、情绪、健康甚至身体之间的联系。我 们思考的方式。在“所有疾病都始于肠道” 的范式下，我们将讨论如何支持我们的肠道 健康以在即将到来的愚蠢季节中建立弹性 和应对压力的 3 个技巧。 1. 排毒肠道 - 错误的食物会滋生有害生物并引 发炎症反应。杀虫剂、重金属和化学物质等 毒素会干扰正常的身体过程，模仿激素或神 经递质并阻止肠道反应。排毒的主要目标是 减少我们的毒素负担，同时加强废物消除过 程。它还意味着识别和去除有问题的食物。 螺旋藻、奶蓟草、绿茶、特定氨基酸（如半 胱氨酸、甘氨酸和谷氨酰胺）和可溶性膳食 纤维等特定草药和营养素适合作为经常“春 季清洁”的排毒剂，适合那些过度沉迷于食 物或饮料的人（尤其是农历新年期间或之后 的酒精、含有添加剂、防腐剂、人造甜味剂 和香料的精制和加工食品。 此外，减少饮食和环境毒素的简单措施，例 如避免使用十几种肮脏的食物（12 种水果 和蔬菜的杀虫剂含量惊人），有助于减轻毒 性负担 (1)。

1. 用菌株特异性益生菌重新平衡肠道细菌 肠道和大脑通过微生物群-肠道-大脑轴进 行交流，该轴涉及迷走神经(2)，迷走神经将 我们的消化系统和器官连接到大脑。当肠 道细菌因饮食、抗生素和生活方式而受到破 坏时，它们会通过迷走神经向大脑发送错误 信号。在一项革命性的研究发现中，Zheng 等人证明了肠道细菌失衡会导致压力和抑 郁(3)(4)(5)。为了改善弹性机制，三种菌株特 异性益生菌已被证明可以恢复和支持肠道 微生物群的组成和功能。他们是 • 鼠李糖乳杆菌 (LGG®) • 酿酒酵母 (boulardii) • 双歧杆菌 (BB-12®)

而副干酪乳杆菌 Lpc-37 和植物乳杆菌 299v 已被证明通过在压力时期降低皮质醇（应 激激素）来支持神经内分泌系统。

1. 食物对情绪的影响 - 在补充益生菌来调节肠 脑连接的同时，我们还需要益生元（有益肠 道细菌的食物）来促进肠道中有益微生物的 生长。这些膳食纤维（图 1）改善了肠道细菌 的多样性 (6)(7)。吃真正的食物可能有助于 减轻压力反应。例如，富含蔬菜、水果、鱼、 鸡蛋和橄榄油的改良地中海饮食（图 2）已 被证明可以减轻成年人的压力和抑郁症状。 另一方面，油炸食品、快餐、加工肉类和含 糖饮料会引起焦虑 (8)。

总之，在农历新年期间，我们可能会有各种 社交聚会，家人和朋友团聚。这可能意味着 深夜和对节日的过度放纵。我们需要注意 我们的肠道健康如何影响我们的情绪和弹 性。减少加工食品、快餐和油炸食品，补充 益生菌和吃真正的食物可能有助于在农历 新年期间调节我们的情绪。

How to avoid over indulgence during the holiday season 春节将临 - 如何预防“过节病” ？

Dr Julia FU is a practitioner in traditional Chinese medicine.

She graduated from the Anhui University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in China in 1983, and has 36 years of experience.

T

傅绪琼中医师 - 1983年毕业于5年制中国安徽中医药大学，从事中医临床已有36年 工作经验。

he annual Spring Festival is almost upon us! This is the largest festival that the Chinese diaspora look forward to all year. Over the past two years, the pandemic-induced lockdowns have made us miss our relatives more than ever, especially during the festive season. The Spring Festival is an opportunity for us to forget the stress and hard work of the past year, to feast on good food and to celebrate to our heart’s content. On the other hand, we might not realise that our health is under threat from several “holiday illnesses” that quietly set in at this time.

Let us find out what are typical “holiday illnesses”:

Ailments caused by the disruption of the body clock

Staying up late to see in the New Year is one of the Spring Festival traditions. Many people also watch the Spring Festival Gala on the television, play cards and chat.

These all disrupt the operation of our body’s biological clock. Staying up late is very harmful to our health and disturbs the cyclic waxing and waning of the yin and the yang in traditional Chinese medicine.

This can cause endocrine disorders whose symptoms include physical fatigue and malaise. It is therefore best to plan to have New Year’s dinner earlier in the evening, avoid long periods of socialising during the Spring Festival, and to avoid staying up late over consecutive nights.

Gastrointestinal injury from excessive eating and drinking

There are many gatherings during the Spring Festival so we end up eating and drinking non-stop. Each meal is large and tends to be a decadent mix of chicken, duck and fish. This can easily lead to diarrhea, bloating and vomiting and other gastrointestinal diseases, and even loss of appetite for a few days.

Overexcitement and depression

Overexcitement and depression can induce various diseases. In the words of the poet Wang Wei, “on festive occasions more than ever we think of our dear ones far away”. Over the last two years, the political and economic turmoil in the world, the rampant spread of Covid-19, and the separation caused by lockdowns is certain to make us miss our relatives even more than usual this Spring Festival.

Apart from the feelings of depression created by these circumstances, we are also excited to meet with old friends. Such polarised emotions can induce certain cardiovascular diseases, particularly in the elderly. Traditional Chinese medicine is above all concerned with maintaining good health through the seven emotions.

Excessive excitement or depression can cause the imbalance of yin and yang in the body resulting in disease. Therefore, during the Spring Festival period we should take good care of family members, show concern for vulnerable groups and bring a bit more love and warmth to others.

Western Australia will open its border after this year’s Spring Festival. Once the borders are open, it will be difficult to maintain the current situation of no community transmission we have been enjoying. Make sure to look after your health during the Spring Festival and avoid disrupting your biological clock. In addition, look after your mental health, maintain a healthy diet and get sufficient sleep so that your body can exercise its maximum level of immunity and protect your health.

春

节就要来临了，身在海外的华人，无 不期盼享受这一年中最大的传统节 日。这两年因疫情引起的锁国封城，更使 我们每逢佳节倍思亲。新春佳节也给我们 有机会暂忘一年的辛苦操劳，好好享受一 下口福，尽情欢乐庆祝，却不知那些 “过 节病”就悄悄向我们的健康袭来。 让我们了解一下有哪些常见的“过节病”。

因生物钟被打乱而引起的各种不适。

37

春节传统有守岁的习俗，许多人也有看春 晚的习惯，或打牌，聊天等活动，这些都会打 乱我们人体生物钟的运转，熬夜是对健康的 危害很大，违背了中医阴阳消长的规律，会给 人带来体力疲倦，精神萎靡不振等内分泌紊 乱的症状。所以要安排好晚上早一点儿吃年 饭，春节期间不要长时间的娱乐，不要连续 的熬夜。 暴饮暴食，肠胃受伤

春节期间聚 餐较多，吃饭不停，饮 酒不 断，而且顿顿都是丰富的鸡鸭鱼肉的大餐。这 很容易引发腹泻，胃胀，呕吐等消化道疾病， 甚至几天都会食欲不振。 情绪上过度兴奋或低落

情绪上的过度兴奋或低落，都可能会诱 发各种疾病。“每逢佳节倍思亲”。这两年的世 界政治经济动荡，covid-19病毒肆虐，锁国封 城造成的分离，在春节过节的时候更加引起 人们对家人的思念，由此产生的抑郁心情，或 与老朋友们相逢相聚时的兴奋与激动，这两 极分化的情绪都会诱发一些心血管疾病，尤 其是对老年人。中医最注重“七情养生”，过度 亢奋或过度抑郁，都可能会造成体内的阴阳 失衡，诱发疾病。所以春节期间应多多关爱家 人，关心孤寡弱势群体，在享受新春佳节的同 时，也多给其他人一些爱的温暖。

今年春节后西澳就要开放边境了，开放 后可能就很难保持现在这样没有社区感染的 好日子了。所以大家一定要在春节期间注意 养生，不要打乱生物钟。养好精神，吃得健 康，睡得充足，就能够发挥我们自身体内最 佳的免疫力，保护我们身体的健康。

Beautiful Day Out in Jarrahdale

A

memorable excursion to express our heartfelt gratitude to our hardworking volunteers for their continuous contribution to Chung Wah Community Care (Chung Wah CC). Mrs Theresa Kwok, CEO of Chung Wah CC, recently arranged two outings to the small historic town of Jarrahdale. This was an opportunity to strengthen the connections between the volunteers and our team, learn more about our goals for community services whilst enjoying the local Western Australian history and culture.

The itinerary included several fascinating spots in Perth and the Southeast region.

First, the group checked in at Applecross’ Canning Bridge, where Mrs. Kwok (our official tour guide) told the story of its reconstruction over the many years and the significance of the Jarrah, the enduring hardwood timber foundation. Our next stop took us to a humble local tavern amidst the beautiful Jarrah forest. Named

after the nearby Jarrah forests, Jarrahdale was established by timber merchants in 1872. The tavern’s location is the original mill owner’s residence and later the mill managers lived there. Several strong jarrah pillars at the entrance were from the demolition of the old Fremantle wharf, returning to its place of origin.

Our last stop was the gorgeous Stirling

Cottage located in Harvey. This 1850’s replica cottage was home to Sir James Stirling, the first Governor of Western Australia. The group enjoyed an exquisite afternoon tea, immersed in nature, overlooking the tranquil Harvey River. It was a delightful day, and our volunteers were fascinated by the many local attractions and enjoyed each other’s company. Everyone appreciated taking part in the fantastic outing and expressed their thanks to Mrs. Kwok and her team for the meticulous planning of the perfect day out.

Unveiling of the East Perth Cemeteries Memorial Gardens

A

few years ago, developers contacted me to source information about the Chinese burials at the East Perth Pioneer Cemetery.

They had purchased the former Perth Girls School on Wellington Street and the block of land behind on Bronte Street. Before development could commence, they needed to exhume over 450 bodies, mainly comprised of Presbyterian with 36 Chinese burials. Records at hand are sparse as many records have been lost over time. Four other Chinese were exhumed and returned to

China in the late 1890s.

As the custodian of the Pioneer Cemetery, the National Trust was working with Notre Dame University archaeology students, who had the opportunity to examine uncovered remains and artifacts. It then led to an unexpected project for the Chinese community, which will be covered in another article. Suffice to say; much excitement has been generated from the excavation finds.

Karrakatta Cemetery is where the remains have been re-interred. The newly created Memorial Garden has a planting of kangaroo paws and other native flora. Once the native trees have been established, the garden will be a place for quiet contemplation.

An interpretative panel designed by Creative Spaces explains the significance of the garden as

all the remains are under 33 numbered plinths.

The official unveiling of the Memorial Garden was attended by The Hon John Carey, Minister for Housing and Local Government, the Metropolitan Cemeteries Board and staff, The National Trust Board and staff, and other guests, including 30 members of the Chinese community on 29 October 2021.

The Minister spoke eloquently about the injustice to the Chinese as they were initially being excluded from the main Cemetery ground. However, later, the laying of a bituminised car-park over some of the remains, including the Chinese, slowed down the decaying process, revealing more information than expected. Today, however, those

Chinese, in particular, have been given recognition and buried in the cemetery proper.

Ms Brenda Robbins, Chair of Metropolitan Cemeteries Board, addressed the gathering and spoke about the Chinese being among the earliest settlers in the colony.

She acknowledged the willingness of today’s Chinese community to be involved in this project which ensured the Metropolitan Cemeteries Board was able to involve them in the unveiling ceremony.

Chung Wah President Dr CHEN Ting spoke about filial duty and traditional family expectations. The Chinese remembered today would not have been reunited with their loved ones. He thanked all those responsible for enabling this process to be rectified. He then introduced Mr John HSU, who organised the traditional burial ceremony with the burning of incense, and offerings of flowers, wine, Chinese tea, assorted meats and foods to the deceased, with the assistance of 3 other members of the Chinese Community Centre. The dignitaries were invited to participate in the short proceedings.

Mr Hsu also invited all the guests to attend next year’s annual Ching Ming ceremony held every Good Friday at the Chinese section of the cemetery.

The Chinese burials are under four plinths, numbered 8, 18, 28 and 33, with Chinese numbers on these plaques. Whilst the garden is set apart from the Chinese section of the cemetery, it is very close to the headstone of the first Chung Wah president Louis LOUEY Wah, and on the opposite side is close to the YUEN Hoy Poy Family plot.

东珀斯公墓纪念 花园揭幕仪式

几

年前，开发商与我联系以获取有关东 珀斯先贤公墓中国墓葬的信息。他们 购买了惠灵顿街的前珀斯女子学校以及勃 朗特街后面的那块土地。在开始开发之前， 他们需要挖掘超过四百五十具遺骸，其中主 要由基督教长老会以及三十六座座中国墓 葬组成。現有手头的记录很少，而且随着时 间的推移，许多记录已经丢失。据悉1890年 代后期，有四名华裔先贤的遗骸被发掘出 来，并运返中国。

41

的解说面板叙述了花园的重要性，后方即是埋 葬遗骸的三十三个基座。 十月廿九日，住房和地方政府部长住房和 地方政府部长约翰·凯里、珀斯大都会墓地委员 会和工作人员、国民信托委员会和工作人员以 及包括约三十名华人社区成员在内的其他嘉宾 出席了纪念花园的揭幕仪式。

作为先贤公墓保管人的国 民托管组织正在与费曼图的圣母 大学考古系学生合作，他们有机 会检查发现的遗骸和陪葬品。这次 的发掘工作为华人社区带来了一个 意想不到骚动，这将在另一篇文章中介 绍。可以说，这项墓葬挖掘的发现的确引起了 许多人的关注。 卡拉卡塔公墓是重新安葬遗骸的地方。新 建的纪念花园栽种了袋鼠爪和其他本土灌木。 当这些绿植丛开始成熟茁壮起来，这花园将成 为一个安谧的地方。由Creative Spaces所设计

部长义正辞严地阐述到了当时华人所 受到的不公待遇，尤其是他们最初被 排除在主要墓地之外。然而，后来 在包括华人在内的一些墓葬上铺 设沥青停车场，这反而大大减缓 了对于墓葬的毁损，完整保留 了比预期更多的考古资料。今 日，这些华人先贤终于得到正 名并被正式归葬在公墓里。

中华总会会长陈挺博士谈及中华传统孝道 和家庭对于后辈的期望。他感谢所有参与纠正 这历史遗憾的人，让我们今天所祭祀的华人先 贤得获得正名对待。他随后也介绍了许锡坤先 生，并在许先生与其他三名华人社区中心成员 的协助下，筹备了华人传统祭祀典礼，为先人 烧香，并为先人献上鲜花、酒、茶、三牲五果 等各类供品。贵宾都参与了这个简短的祭祀仪 式。 许先生更是邀请来宾们参加明年在耶稣受 难日于华人墓地举行的年度的清明祭祀仪式。 华人墓葬安座在四个基座之下；编号为 八、十八、二十八和三十三，这些牌匾上皆以 中文标识。纪念花园虽然与华人墓地距离分隔 甚远，但却很靠近中华首任会长雷华的墓，对 面则靠近阮霭培的家族墓地。

大都会公 墓委员会主席布伦 达·罗宾斯女士在集会 上发表讲话，并谈到华人 是殖民地最早的定居者之一。 她非常乐见本地华人社区代表 能拨冗来参与这个典礼，大都 会公墓委员会更是备感荣幸邀 请到华人先贤的后辈们前来参 与揭幕仪式。

Visit first Chung Wah President’s gravesite

A

fter the unveiling of the East Perth Memorial Gardens at Karrakatta Cemetery on 29 October, the Chung Wah President Dr CHEN Ting, together with other Chinese guests visited the grave of Mr LOUEY Wah, the first Chung Wah President.

A previous attempt to locate it by Kaylene Poon was unsuccessful. However, the Metropolitan Cemetery Board staff assisted all present were delighted to realise the close proximity of his gravesite to the new Memorial Gardens.

Wife Jane Louey & Louey Wah passed away in 1914 and 1915 respectively. Their combined gravesite in the Presbyterian section of Karrakatta was very unusual at that time. This was probably due to their tireless work as active members of the Church in Perth. Louey Wah was a lay preacher and Jane taught English to the Chinese community.

It was possibly the first visit in a long time, that a current serving Chung Wah President has paid their respects to the Association’s Founding Father.

The Association is very grateful to Mr Wong for this generous gift, which reflects the community’s appreciation for the work of the Association.

The President and the Executive Committee would like to extend their deepest sympathy and condolences to Mr. Liyong Wang and his family for the recent passing of his wife, Dr Shaofang Wang on 13 December 2021. Dr Shaofang Wang was an academic and Past President of the Australian Chinese Women’s Federation. She was a valuable and respected member of the Chung Wah Association and the Chinese Community who involved in many community services. In this time of grievance and sadness, our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Greg and Fran On behalf of the Chung Wah Association I wish you both congratulations and warm wishes on reaching your 50th wedding anniversary.

It is pleasing to see the long-standing family connection to the Chung Wah Association is alive and well. As an association we are indebted to the early pioneers, such as Fran’s grandfather YUEN Hoy Poy, for having the foresight to establish the Chung Wah Association in 1909.

Congratulations on your Wedding Anniversary

Today’s Chinese community would have a much poorer standing without their perseverance.

May the 18th December be a milestone to add to your family’s history, but also a time when you can reflect on not just your journey, but those of past family members as well.
