and Western society by introducing the two lifestyles and cultures to each other. With much effort, New Land Magazine has grown into a mature, premium bilingual lifestyle magazine that showcases cutting-edge fashion, traditional Chinese culture and the best of the Australian way of life, including home and decor, travel and gourmet.

From the very beginning we have stood firmly by our purpose: carrying forward traditional Chinese culture, building up a cooperative platform for entrepreneurs to grow and succeed, and bridging the Chinese and Western community for a more harmonious multicultural society. In the meantime, we seek every opportunity to give back to society.

Looking back, we are proud of what we have achieved thus far. Besides delivering stimulating content, New Land Magazine has served hundreds of advertising clients including Ferrari, DOMO Collections, SMEG, the Tourism Authority of Thailand, the Victorian Government and Telstra.

Experience a Divine Culture YOU CANNOT SEE ANYWHERE ELSE China was once known as the Land of the Divine.

Thousands of years ago, Chinese believed that their culture was a sacred gift from the heavens. This ancient world of splendour has since been lost…

But now you can watch it come to life on stage.

Let Shen Yun take you on a magical journey and we will share with you the beautiful world of China’s divine civilization. Classical Chinese dance, ethnic and folk dances, authentic costumes, and breathtaking backdrops will do the storytelling, all accompanied by an enchanting orchestral sound.

Each Shen Yun performance includes short dance stories of heroes who battle demons, fly up to the heavens, and visit deep-sea palaces. Packed with action, courage, and humour, these tales embody the wisdom and virtues of ancient China.

You will discover how China is actually home to dozens of different ethnic groups and regional folk traditions with their own distinctive costumes and dance styles. You will be amazed at the colourful beauty of traditional Chinese culture.

Inspiring & Captivating MELODIES THAT CAPTURE THE SPIRIT OF ANCIENT CHINA

M

usic has had mystical powers throughout Chinese history.

The Yellow Emperor used it to defeat his greatest enemy.

Confucius claimed it could help govern a country. The ancient Chinese believed it even had the power to heal.

Music is such a big part of every Shen Yun performance—from the live orchestra that accompanies each dance to the vocal and instrumental solos on stage. Shen Yun’s orchestra is incredibly unique, harmoniously blending the grandeur of a Western orchestra with the distinct beauty of ancient Chinese instruments. The result is a gorgeous and vivid sound with great emotional range—perfect for bringing to life the soul of an ancient civilization.

啟迪心智 動人心魄 獨特絢麗展現 中華古老文明藝術的底蘊和風格 中國音樂有悠久的歷史，具有神奇的力量。華夏文明的始祖軒轅黃帝曾 運用鼓樂打敗了最強大的敵人。孔聖人曾主張以禮樂治天下。中國古人 還相信音樂是醫治疾病的良方。 神韻晚會的音樂舉足輕重，為整場演出現場伴奏的神韻交響樂團是世界 上獨一無二的。以中國古老音樂的旋律韻味為基礎，將西方交響樂的寬 廣、宏大與輝煌的氣勢完美結合，達到了令人震撼的演出效果。其感情 表達細微而複雜，生動細膩地傳達出人的情緒和意蘊，別有韻味。 Sample the music at ShenYun.com/music

SINGERS

Early Chinese theatre and European opera once shared the same singing technique, which has since been lost.

Shen Yun’s singers have brought this traditional technique back to the modern stage.

神韻歌唱家 古老的中國戲曲的唱法和 西方歌劇的唱法是一樣 的。而真正美聲高音唱法 在歐洲失傳了。神韻藝術 團的歌唱家將這一傳統唱 法重現於舞台。

ERHU

The erhu has a history of over 4,000 years. Although it has only two strings, it can express a wide range of emotions and is said to most resemble the human voice.

二胡 二胡有 4000 多年的歷史。 雖然只有兩根弦，卻是一 種最能代表中華民族滄桑 歷史和細膩深厚情感的樂 器，音質中常帶有凝重和 悲傷的情懷。據說其音色 最接近人聲。

Discover a Different China 重拾中華文化的瑰寶

Y

ou cannot see the authentic Chinese culture Shen Yun presents anywhere else. Not even in China, where the ruling Communist Party sees traditional culture as a threat to its power. It tried obliterating this heritage, and almost succeeded.

But 10 years ago, a group of Chinese artists came together in New York. They created Shen Yun and have brought this culture back from the brink of extinction. Although Shen Yun still cannot perform in China, it is now celebrating this ancient culture around the world. That’s why many people even travel from China especially to see Shen Yun. Alongside ancient legends, Shen Yun presents the moving story of people who practice Falun Dafa in China today. They face terrible persecution, and yet continue to follow the traditional principles of truth, compassion, and tolerance. These dances have become audience favourites because of the feelings of courage and hope that they inspire.

經過中共的統治，傳統文化幾近湮滅。在當今 的中國大陸，人們已經無法看到像神韻這樣的 演出。

「神韻傳達的中國古老 智慧，不僅造福華人，更 澤披整個世界。 」 ——泰德·柯凡諾，CNN創辦人之一 就在 10 年前，一群來自紐約的華人藝術家們決 定扭轉乾坤。他們創建了神韻，讓瀕臨滅絕的 中華文化再現輝煌。神韻雖然至今無法在中國 演出，但卻在全世界與數百萬人分享這份珍貴 的文化遺產。如今更有許多中國人特地飛到海 外欣賞神韻。 除了古老傳說，神韻也呈現當代故事。例如在 中國的法輪大法修鍊者們，儘管面對殘酷的迫 害，他們依然奉行真、善、忍的信念，展現金 剛不破的大無畏精神，感天動地。這些舞蹈深 受觀眾們的喜愛，因為展現了勇氣與希望。

Art That Nourishes the Soul UPLIFTING ENERGY— EXPERIENCE SHEN YUN’S TRUE DIFFERENCE

A

rt can do more than make us smile.

It is a universal language that knows no cultural bounds. It can inspire and uplift us. In ancient China, artists believed that to create true art, they must not only master their craft, but also cultivate goodness and inner purity. Today, Shen Yun’s artists carry on this noble tradition.

Shen Yun takes timeless virtues—ideals like loyalty, humility, compassion—and presents what is beautiful and good in a powerful theatrical experience. You can see this positive energy in the genuine joy with which these artists perform, and feel it long after the curtain falls.

潤澤心靈的超凡藝術 一場不折不扣的奇蹟般演出 藝術是演繹天人合一境界的方式，藝術家陶冶自身的道德情操，是因為 他們感受到，只有純凈美好的心靈，才能創作出超凡絕俗的藝術。神韻 藝術團承續了這種古老的傳統。 神韻藝術家深信：僅僅掌握藝術的表面遠遠不足，因為真正打動觀眾的 是藝術家的內在。因此，神韻藝術家們把中華傳統文化的智慧與價值溶 入生命，在日常生活中修鍊自己的心性，並透過打坐激勵自身的品德日 臻完善，從而達到藝術造詣的至善至美。 神韻恢弘的藝術創作，每一年都推陳出新，每個細節都力求完美，神韻 的目標是超越想像的藝術境界。

“This show can purify people’s souls.

An extraordinary performance where every program disseminates the message of human compassion.”

of important advancements in literature, philosophy, and science. Many aspects of life often associated with traditional China—including cultivation of rice, sophisticated civil service examinations, and groundbreaking technological innovation— advanced during the Song.

The Song is known as the most economically prosperous dynasty in Chinese history. During its reign, China was transformed from an agrarian to a commercial economy and its population increased dramatically. In addition to urbanization and the growth of a merchant class, government policies granting farmers ownership of land proved a huge 邵雍像，出《歷代君臣圖鑑》（清代拓本），哈 佛燕京圖書館藏。（公有領域） Pictures of Shao Yong

success. A jump in agricultural production ensued—even the later Ming and Qing dynasties failed to surpass the Song’s yield.

Technology developed rapidly as well. Three of the “Four Great Inventions” of ancient China originated in the Song dynasty: the magnetic compass, printing, and gunpowder.

Firearms began to be widely used during military combat and ship building dramatically improved. To protect its growing foreign trade, the Song dynasty established China’s first permanent navy. Printing, papermaking, silk production, and porcelain crafts all thrived. In the 12th century, the Song became the first government in the world to print its own paper currency.

Song rulers were comparatively flexible in their style of governance. The scholar-official class enjoyed an unprecedented rise in social status and carried much of the responsibility for local administration. The prosperous economy, freedom of expression, and the invention of printing provided scholars with an environment to freely contemplate, debate, and propagate their thought.

Wisdom of Shao Yong Living during the Song Dynasty, Shao Yong (1011 A.D. - 1077 A.D.) was one of the most learned scholars in Chinese history. He was a philosopher, cosmologist, poet, and historian. He was well respected for his virtues and indepth knowledge of iconography and numerology.

because Chinese philosophy is different. Chinese philosophy emphasizes the harmony of the Yin and the Yang. The Sun carries the same weight as the Moon in the Chinese traditional calendar - the Xia Calendar.

In Chinese traditional culture, on Yuan Dan - New Years Day, families of multiple generations gather together, get up early in the morning, wear their new clothes, light candles, and burn firecrackers. They open the doors, arrange ceremonies in the yards, offer fruits, tea, drinks to Heaven, the Earth, and their ancestors. This is called "The New Year Big Luck when opening the doors." After that, younger generations pay respects to older generations by kowtowing, bowing, etc., and in return, the older generations give the younger generation oranges (the Chinese word for orange is pronounced the same as the Chinese word for luck), peanuts (sounds the same as 'colourful lives'), or candies, etc.

Many places have the custom of eating vegetarian food at breakfast on New Years Day - mainly eating cooked rice on New Years Eve. For regular years they cook 12 litres, and for leap years they cook 13 litres, so that one litre corresponds to each month. This is called the New Year Meal, and too much cooked rice means extra food in this year. The first bowl of rice must be given to the oldest person in the family with respect while the older generation helps younger ones with some vegetables. This manifests that the family is in harmony since younger generations respect the elderly, and the older

According to social conventions, there are perhaps four categories of reciprocally paying New Year's calls:

60

NEW LAND

In ancient times there was a difference between paying a New Year's call (Bai Nian) and extending New Year greetings (He Nian). Paying a New Year's call is to deliver

greetings to one's elders, while extending New Year's greetings is the reciprocal greeting among people of the same generation.

Paying a New Year's call is a traditional Chinese custom.

It is a way for people to discard the old for the new, and mutually express their best wishes. In ancient times, "paying new year's call" originally meant to greet and celebrate the new year with one's elders, including kowtowing to the elders, wishing them a happy new year, good health, good life and so on. When meeting relatives and friends of the same generation, one should salute and greet them as well.

In ancient times, if there were too many neighbours, relatives and friends to personally visit in turn, a person might have dispatched a servant to deliver cards to pay New Year's calls. These are known as "flying cards." Families usually placed a red paper bag by the main house gates with the words "meets with luck" written on the front of the bag to collect the "flying cards." This custom started with the upper classes in the Song Dynasty. Rich people use a "gate book" to record visitors' information and "flying cards" received.

Today, people send New Year's greeting cards, which is a variation of the original "flying card" delivery of ancient times.

The upper class literary intelligentsia used cards to send New Year's greetings to one another. At that time the literary intelligentsia was a wide circle of friends. It was time and energy consuming to pay all the New Year's calls in person. A special way existed to contact those with whom they were not too close; they used a specific kind of writing paper, printed with a plum blossoms design and cut into two-inch wide and three-inch long cards. They wrote the recipient's name, address and congratulatory words on it,

Gathering Wealth There is another saying, that the first day of the New Year is "the broom's birthday." On this day one cannot use the broom; otherwise one might sweep away luck, suffer unexpected financial loss and bring in "the comet" which causes bad luck. If one must sweep the floor, one must sweep from outside to inside. This day one cannot splash water or dump trash, either, fearing that it brings suffering and unexpected financial loss. Today, many places also preserve this custom. People do a thorough cleaning on New Year's Eve, and on New Year's Day they do not use the broom or dump the trash. They prepare one big barrel to hold wastewater without splashing it outside. v

When someone has a speech difficulty they are often assumed to be of low intelligence, when actually that part of the brain isn’t really affected. They are usually of normal, or better than average intelligence.

I could tell that there was something behind him that wasn’t able to come out. We worked with Lin’s community worker Chea Phearom, giving her basic speech therapy training.

After a couple of months his speech was able to improve, and Lin was able to go to school for the first time at the age of 12. Two months later I went back to visit him and I found that not only was he going to school but he was coming second in his class.

This story shows us that he was able to leap frog all these kids who have been in the system, come in half way through and still perform at the top of his class. That was a big turning point for me because it made me think that I couldn’t walk away from the situation.

Especially given the numbers, we’re talking about 600,000 people here without support.”

Weh is now handing over the management of the OIC to a local lady named Pisey Soeun. “She was brought up in this country and she understands Cambodia better than I do,” Weh acknowledges. “She’s able to operate here at a level that I can’t. I think our role as Australians or as foreigners in these countries is to support people like that, to give them the tools and resources to do the job, to solve their country’s own problems.

We don’t want to set up something that perpetuates its own or the government’s dependency on foreigners to do the work for them. Rather than setting up an NGO, which is difficult to dissolve, because NGO‘S tend to perpetuate their own work, we said,

Weh addresses the Cambodian Government and its United Nations partners on the need to develop the speech therapy profession, on Jul 15, 2015,Cambodia. (OIC Cambodia) 2015 年 7 月 15 日柬埔寨舉行的聯合國會議上，楊威就發展語言恢復療法行業發表演講，聽眾包括 柬埔寨政府官員和聯合國官員

‘we’re going to support this local NGO, CABDICO. Set up a project underneath it and that means that when we’re done we can dissolve and pull out.’

The exit strategy is really important.

We’re going to do this work, set up infrastructure and expect the Cambodian government to take it on, because we will have established university courses, government policy that controls the profession, we have awareness, and we have evidence that it works.

Weh plans to move back to Australia where he will continue his work for OIC as an advisor, speaker and fundraiser.

Party Dressing

The perfect A-line dress is an essential and versatile piece for the party season, a conservative cut with endless possibilities for dressing up or down with the finer details. For the ultimate in sophisticated style, wear a beautifully cut A-line dress fit for a Queen, and yet party like a princess in this season’s fuschia colour pop.

A statement necklace will bring ultimate glamour or replace with a belt for a feminine detail. A feminine patent court shoe with bows brings a playfulness, or a stiletto will bring a flirtatious edge.

A 字裙是一個明智的選擇－－傳統的剪 裁風格典雅大方，如果搭配不同單件， 又能創造不同的著裝風格，輕鬆百變。 即能打扮得成熟穩重，亮麗的顏色又 能激發心中的公主夢。 搭配一條別致的項鍊，或是一條柔美 的腰帶，讓您成為聚會中的焦點。一 雙女性美十足的便鞋帶來的是俏皮玩 樂的風情，而一雙細高跟鞋卻能將女 性魅力盡情展現。

Want to stand out from the crowd?

Metallic satin and tulle is a unique statement. Express your individuality by exploring texture and exquisite detail from the gathering detail at the waist to contrast side panels. Thin straps work beautifully with the soft tulle overlay, and strappy heel further emphasising the intricacy and edginess of the look. 想在人群中脫穎而出？金屬色的布料 搭配絲綢質地的薄衫讓人過目不忘。 如果再在腰間的細節處下功夫，獨特 的個性將得到極大程度的展現。羅馬 鞋與絲綢的搭配恰到好處，與簡潔的 絲綢形成鮮明的對比，卻也帶來了新 的時尚韻味。

CONTEMPORARY ART SPIRIT OF AFRICA SAFARI COLLECTION 野性之美 For the Safari design, FREYWILLE’s artistic team drew inspiration from tales of legendary journeys through the African grasslands. We see vivid wildlife images, as prints of leopard, cheetah, zebra and giraffe are combined with brilliant colours and sophisticated ethnic prints. Metallic shades of bronze and mother-of-pearl let the warm tones shine especially brightly.

The colour palette of the design varies depending on the mounting: strong rich colours are combined with gold; warm pastel shades shine in smooth rhodiumpalladium.

For a awhile now synthetic wicker, teak or powdercoated aluminium have dominated the outdoor lounge market with their naturally weather resistant qualities.

However, compared with their interior counterparts, covered with cozy fabric or luxurious leather, traditional outdoor lounges are seen as less comfortable and fancy. 一直以來，戶外沙發常以藤條、柚木或者鋁材作 為主體材料，運用各種加工、塗層工藝進行處理，以 此減少多變的露天環境對於家具的損害。同時，為滿 足現代人多變的品味與需求，這類傳統的戶外沙發也 在不停地改變設計風格，提升製作工藝，將戶外生活 的品質提升到了前所未有的高水平。 但相較於由柔軟布料，或奢華皮料包裹覆蓋的室 內沙發，傳統戶外沙發在舒適程度與豪華觀感方面總 是略遜一籌。

Gutasaga Archaeological records point to Gotland rising and falling into the sea numerous times throughout history, and it is believed that it rose out of the sea for the final time around 9000BC. These records correspond with a thirteenth century manuscript housed in the Royal Library in Stockholm which contains the Gutasaga, or The History of The Gotlanders.

The saga describes how Gotland at that time was bewitched so that it sank below the sea by day and only resurfaced at night.

The first man to discover Gotland was named Tjelvar and he broke this spell by bringing fire to the island, so that it never sank again.

Tjelvar’s descendants populated the island and multiplied to the point that the land could no longer support them. The people drew lots and every third person had to leave. The saga records how the Gotlanders that left travelled up the river Dvina through Russia: “they went so far that they came to the land of the Greeks. … they settled there, and live there still, and still have something of our language.” This narrative is associated with the historical migration of the Goths. 考古記錄顯示，在歷史上哥特蘭島曾經上浮和下沉到海裡多 次，據信公元前 9000 年是它最後一次浮出海面。斯德哥爾摩皇 家圖書館裡的一本追溯到 13 世紀的手稿——《哥特蘭人的歷史》 裡面的內容，支持了這些記錄。 傳說中稱，當時的哥特蘭島受魔咒控制，白天沉入水下， 只在夜晚才浮出水面。一位名叫 Tjelvar 的男子最先發現了這塊 陸地。他把火種引到島上而破除了這一魔咒，從此它再也沒有沉 下去過。Tjelvar 的後代在島上生息繁衍，直到一個時期小島的資 源已不夠養育那裏的人口了。於是那裏的人就抽籤，有三分之一 的人必須離開那裏。這就是傳說中記錄的，哥特蘭人如何順著 Dvina 河穿過俄羅斯，「去了很遠的希臘這塊土地……在那裏定 居下來，一直生活在那裏，並有著一些我們的語言。」這一經歷 與哥特人的遷移歷史也有一些聯繫。

Invasion and Retreat By the end of the thirteenth century however, the importance of Visby as a trading centre had waned with the establishment by the Hanseatic League of their own main strategic port at Novgorod. Effectively bypassing the Gotlanders. Shortly after Gotland suffered a string of invasions. King Valdemar of Denmark invaded the island and slaughtered thousands of farmers. He and his army left only after extorting a heavy ransom. This was followed by consecutive occupation by pirates, and finally

Red Hill Epicurian 紅丘美食館

By Luke Hughes 文|盧克・修斯

In the heart of the Mornington Peninsula’s hinterland, less than an hour’s drive from Melbourne, The Epicurian Red Hill is an Italian- inspired gourmet venue steeped in local history.

It is the latest incarnation of the The Red Hill Cool Store which opened in 1920 to warehouse local produce before it was transported to Melbourne via the Red Hill to Bittern Railway. 在莫寧頓半島（Mornington Peninsula）腹地，離墨爾本開車不到一小時的地方，「紅丘美 食館」（The Epicurian Red Hill）是家在當地久負盛名的義大利美食餐廳。 這是「紅丘涼店」的現代版。1920 年開張的「紅丘涼店」本用於儲存當地的農產品，然後 經由紅丘站至比特恩鐵路（Bittern Railway）站送至墨爾本。

The interior of the building has been beautifully transformed to purpose, with the addition of a spectacular atrium framed by immense historic timbers recycled from the old Woolloomooloo wharf in Sydney. The ‘cucina’ style restaurant inside, aptly named The Shed, is inspired by co-owner Craig Regan’s time in Italy. 餐廳的內部設計別有特色，由悉尼 Woolloomooloo 碼頭的老木頭廢物利用達成 的支架讓門廳有著濃厚的歷史韻味。名為「棚舍」（The Shed）的餐飲區是義大利 風格的餐廳，合夥人 Craig Regan 從他在義大利度過的時光有感而發。

“It’s a fun style of dining, loud and noisy,” he said.

“Italy is about people sharing food together. Epicurus was a Greek philosopher; his philosophy was about ‘the good life’. Not just about good food and wine, it’s also about friends, family and a work/life balance.” 「這是一家有趣、吵鬧的飯廳風格，」他說， 「義大利人總是一起分享食物。Epicurus 是位希臘 哲學家，他的哲學理念是『好生活』，不僅關於食 物和紅酒，還關乎朋友、家人以及工作和生活間的 平衡。」

Yarra Yering 酒莊

In the Spring of 2016 friends of mine from Hong Kong had expressed an interest to come and try some Australian wines. So I took them to some of the vineyards of the Yarra Valley in Victoria including Chandon, Coldstream Hills, Rochford and Yarra Yering. 冬去春來，有朋自遠方來，來自香港的朋友們想品嘗當地的葡萄酒，首選當然是位於維多利亞 省的 Yarra Valley。當天，我們去了不同的酒莊，包括 Chandon，Coldstream Hills，Rochford 和 YarraYering。
