NEW YORK, May 27 (Xinhua) -- A Fujian food and culture share session was held in New York City on Saturday, attracting nearly 500 guests from the overseas Chinese, business and academic communities. The event, titled "Overseas Chinese Family Happiness in New York," was organized by the American Fujian Association of Commerce & Industry, aimed to promote Fujian Province's cuisine and traditional culture among both Chinese expatriates and the broader American public. Marking the association's 33rd anniversary, the event included a rich variety of traditional cultural demonstrations, such as lion dance, guzheng performance, Min opera interpreted in Fuzhou dialect, and a traditional Chinese dress cheongsam show, which drew applauses from the audience. In the spirit of the upcoming Dragon Boat Festival, organizers distributed Zongzi and scented sachets to the audience, enhancing the festive atmosphere. The audience also experienced the charm of traditional food, art and festival culture through diverse cultural experience activities such as calligraphy, tea art and paper-cutting. It is a cultural event that allows overseas compatriots to revisit their hometowns and gives the American public a close sense of the glamor of Chinese culture, said Zheng Wei, president of the American Fujian Association of Commerce & Industry. Fujian cuisine is an important part of the overseas Chinese food industry. Overseas Chinese Family Happiness is a three-year-old event that has been successfully organized since 2022 in China's southeastern Fujian Province, as well as many other countries and regions such as the United States, Italy, Spain, and Malaysia, sharing the richness of traditional Chinese food culture with the world.

KUALA LUMPUR, May 23 (Bernama) -- It is an honour for us to rally behind Ooi Zheng Wei, one of our many talented Cambridge A Level student, representing Malaysia at the International Physics Olympiad (IPhO) at Paris, France, in July 2025. Zheng Wei chose MCKL for its strong A Level foundation and nurturing environment that empowered him to pursue his passion for physics. Zheng Wei's passion for physics grew during high school, which led him to aim for the IPhO. His fascination with physics deepened as he read works by great physicists like Richard Feynman. For Zheng Wei, physics was not just about solving problems; it was about appreciating the beauty and complexity of the world. The road to representing Malaysia at the IPhO was long and rigorous.
