Firstly, a Happy Chinese New Year to all our friends and colleagues in Asia, for as we pointed out in a post this time a year ago Chinese New Year is celebrated not only in Greater China but across much of Asia.
Indeed, we would estimate that close to 2bn people are celebrating this week, and after the disruption of the last two years, there is enormous pent up demand for travel and social interaction. Enjoy!
This year is the year of the Rabbit, or more specifically, the Water Rabbit, as each of the 12 signs of the Chinese Zodiac rotates through a cycle of five elements, nicely described in the annual (tongue in cheek) investment guide from CLSA on the Feng Shui Index .
