SINCE 2004, the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) has been promoting
the various Chinese New Year events under the marketing banner of
'Spring Festival' or 'Chun Jie' ('Is there a move to change
'Chinese New Year' to 'Spring Festival'?' by Mr Phua Kok Heng; Jan
15).
There is no move to replace the term 'Chinese New Year' as we
continue to use this phrase freely in our promotional
materials.
We wish Mr Phua a happy year of the golden Rabbit.
Andrew Phua
Director, Precinct Development
Singapore Tourism Board
