Enter the Dragon


Modest expansion: For this year, the economic momentum is unlikely to repeat the solid growth that was experienced in the past three Dragon years but growth will be modest at about 4.5%.

GONG Xi Fa Cai! Xin Nian Kuai Le! Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year under the fifth animal zodiac, the Dragon. This year is the 4,722nd year under the Chinese calendar and the year is a Yang year.

Just like any other year, the Year of the Dragon will have a significant influence not only on those who are born in the same animal zodiac but also on the other 11 Chinese zodiac animal signs.
