Yesterday marked the beginning of a new year according to the Lunar Calendar: The year of the tiger. Asians all across the globe gathered with their families to celebrate this joyous event. President Obama gave his best wishes via YouTube to everyone out there celebrating.

Wishing everyone a prosperous, happy, and healthy new year, President Obama conveyed a message of cultural tolerance and acceptance. It’s nice to see the President take the time out of his busy schedule to pay attention to things like this.

On behalf of the Mixr community, I wish President Obama a prosperous and productive new year! 谢谢!
