Dear Friends
To call the festivities Lunar New Year is a more accurate from an astronomical/astrological point and does not convey the meaning that Chinese are now being excluded or somehow offended, it means that other cultures, who also recognise the tradition, are now included. It makes no real practical difference in the way that Chinese or other cultural groups celebrate the occasion by simply referring to the festivities as the Lunar New Year.
Perhaps, insofar as the naming issue goes the term Lunar could be the generic title and if any particular cultural group wants to have an exclusive celebration they could title their festivities, for example; Chinese Lunar New Year or Vietnamese (TET) Lunar New Year.
However once the festivities are in the public domain it is necessary for those festivities to be referred to as Lunar New Year. This is an accurate title and vital to the objects of multiculturalism in Australia. It should not be a case of whoever funds the occasion should get the naming rights, this outcome would be detrimental to fostering harmonious multicultural relations and hints of a vested interest.” |
