AUCKLAND, Sept. 22 -- Chinese communities' representatives from the south and north islands of New Zealand gathered together to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China on Sunday in New Zealand's biggest city Auckland.
The event started with the China national flag-raising ceremony. Then the organizer released elegant white doves to delivery the best wishes to the motherland.
Steven Wong, the president of the Chinese Association of New Zealand, who initiated and organized the event, welcomed the leaders of Chinese communities across New Zealand in his opening speech.
"This year is the 70th anniversary of China. Please allow me to say happy birthday to our motherland. Best wishes for the prosperity of our homeland, for China and New Zealand friendship and the peace of the world," he said.
Zhou Wei, vice Chinese consul-general in Auckland, said "on behalf of the Chinese Consulate General in Auckland, I would like to thank all friends here and all over New Zealand for your great support and valuable contribution to the development of China-New Zealand relations."
"The seventy years after the founding of a new China has ushered in the best development in China's history. China has developed from a poor and lagged-behind country to the world's second-largest economy, the largest industrial producer, the largest goods trader, the largest foreign exchange reserve country and the largest trading partner and export market of nearly 130 countries and regions including New Zealand," Zhou highlighted.
