2月3日周四晚八点，CAAL和CAAL PAC将举办2022线上候选人论坛，邀请镇Select Board, School Committee, Planning Board候选人和大家见面，回答我们社区关心的问题。
今年 Select Board 和 Planning Board 是等额选举，但 School Committee是差额选举，三选二。学校和学区是我们社区关心的大头。希望此次侯选人论坛能帮助大家在了解候选人的背景，经历，以及竞选理念后，投出你的一票。
CAAL PAC 要在会后决定背书哪个候选人， 欢迎大家会后留下发表意见， 让CAAL PAC 有机会听取社区反馈。谢谢！

The event will be livestreamed from 8 to 9 p.m.
Although she wishes that they could perform in front of an audience, Melanie Lin, co-president of CAAL, says the videos provide a higher quality of performances. The idea of a Lunar New Year television broadcast is rooted in China’s culture, where grand, staged programs are broadcast to celebrate the oncoming year.

十二月寄语
2021年是充满挑战和漫长的。我们经历了新冠，疫苗，德尔塔，奥密克戎。2021年又是充满希望和生机的。疫情居家的生活使大家练成了厨师，烘培师，菜农。2021年更是激情洋溢的。我们经历了反仇视，亚裔参政，目睹波士顿首位亚裔市长的产生。
目前新冠每天确诊人数超过五十万，这大概就是黎明前的黑暗。在新的一年里，我们的身体会更健康，心胸更开阔，凝聚力更强大。同时，盼望在新的一年里，我们重新能够自由地去世界各地看望我们的亲人朋友们。祝大家新年快乐！
