Excellencies,
Dear colleagues,
Distinguished guests,
Ladies and gentlemen,
各位阁下，
各位同事，
各位嘉宾，
女士们，先生们，
Good evening!
大家晚上好！
I thank Her Excellency Maria Espinosa, the PGA. I thank the Secretary General for his remarks tonight. And we are very happy to take this opportunity to celebrate the Presidency of the Security Council, which is Equatorial Guinea in February.
Today is the first time that we celebrate the Chinese New Year at the UN headquarters. So it’s an honor for us, for my mission to present the symphony orchestra performance to all of you. And we are very happy to see that the symphony orchestra from Suzhou came to New York to give performance to the United Nations, to the members and to the members of the Secretariat.
This is a very young symphony orchestra, established only less than two years, with musicians from more than 39 countries. I think this orchestra is a very special one. We can call it a mini-United Nations.
