達拉斯華人喜迎龍年

今晚我們參加了達拉斯華人社區在凱悅大飯店舉辦之新春晚會, 心中充滿了喜悅和感動。

早在八十年代初， 一個燠熱的夏天， 我們來到了達拉斯， 當時華人廖廖可數 ，只不過一家華人製麵厰及幾家餐館。 為了生存發展，我們必須在此紥根， 多年來經過弟妹們的共同努力， 克服困難， 終於得予生存發展。 當時母親也住在達拉斯近郊禮查遜， 每當我們家人回來時，她總是會備可口之雲南家鄉菜， 並且表演一首我為她購買之長笛 ，家人和融共享天倫之樂，以此為甚。 如今母親已離世多年，  每思至此， 悲情湧出 ，這些佳餚和笛聲早己成了記憶。

多年來 ，由於達拉斯居於南部中央， 能源高科技服裝業十分興旺， 是美國最具指標性之大城， 近年來許多華亞裔人士不斷遷入， 商業鼎盛。

《達拉斯日報》在此發行已久， 我們和華亞裔社區緊密結合， 最新一期2024 年《達拉斯華人電話本》已出版， 這也是我們對社區服務之最重要項目， 同時新成立之環球第一銀行已經選定行址， 將在近期開張營業。 

多年來， 我們更心存感激， 感謝有你相伴， 能在這塊土地上寫下媒體和金融另一篇章。

The Dallas Chinese Community Welcomes The Year Of The Dragon 

Tonight we are here to join the Dallas Chinese community in celebrating and welcoming the Year of the Dragon at the Hyatt Regency Hotel. Our hearts are full of joy and emotion. 

As early as the 1980’s, on a hot summer day we came to Dallas from Houston. At that time we only had a noodle factory and a few Chinese restaurants. In order to survive we decided that we must come here and stay. After many years and with the joint efforts of our family members, brother Dan, sister Sandy and Jing, we finally settled down and survived. My Mom also moved to the town of Richardson close to Dallas. Whenever our family came home, she always prepared home cooking and performed a song with the flute which I bought for her many years ago. Mom passed away a few years ago. When I think about the delicacies she prepared for us as home-cooked meals and her cheerful flute playing, a sadness comes into my heart. 

Over the years, our Dallas Chinese Daily and the Dallas Chinese Yellow Pages have become very important community services in the Dallas region. We are so grateful and appreciate your strong support very much. 

The newly established Global One Bank will also open a new branch in Dallas very soon. We are so very excited to join with our community and extend our financial services to the Dallas area.
