国庆鸡尾酒会由霍巴特副市长Ron Christie主持，首先由身着唐装的(美女)市长Sue Hickey讲话。讲话中以制作的中国行PPT的方式和大家一起回顾了去年中国国家主席习近平和夫人彭丽媛对塔州的到访，为塔州进一步的经济发展提供的极大潜在的商机；介绍了去中国访问期间中国政府及人民的热情友好。中澳目前已成为第一贸易伙伴。此次的中国行不仅再次推动了福州和霍巴特友好城市的建立，同时于今年四月与西安又签署了友好姊妹城市。市长Sue希望霍巴特这个美丽宁静的城市能吸引更多的华人，华人留学生前来学习与生活。并相信霍巴特市政府会沿着澳中友好协作的路走下去。

The MC for the National Day cocktail party was the suave Deputy Lord Mayor Alderman Ron Christie and the first speech was given by our beautiful Lord Mayor Alderman Sue Hickey dressed in a Chinese costume. She used a Power Point presentation of her China Visit and took everyone back to the special moment when the Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Liyuan visited Tasmania to further economic development and realised other potential business opportunities. Also she talked about her recent trip to China where the Hobart trade delegation received warm and friendly reception, and she highlighted the fact that China has now become Australia’s largest trading partner. During the trip, the Lord Mayor promoted the establishment of Hobart and Fuzhou’s sister city relationship. It was another significant development after Xi’an and Hobart became sister cities in this April. Lord Mayor Hickey expressed her hope that Hobart, this beautiful and peaceful city would attract more attention from Chinese people. She believed that Hobart would continue to be an important bridge between Australia and China.



塔州中华艺术交流协会会长潘昌铀女士,塔州中华商会副会长徐哲先生应邀讲话表示：此次活动意义深远：1.霍巴特和西安结成姊妹城市；2.紧随九月二十七日中国的传统节日，中秋佳节；3.中华人民共和国成立66周年的国庆日。基于三喜临门，值得庆贺！

The President of the Tasmania Chinese Arts and Communication Society, Ms. You you Pan, and the vice president of the Tasmania Chinese Business Association, Mr. Jason Xu were then invited to speak as co-sponsors. They both expressed that the event was particularly meaningful in terms of first, the Hobart and Xi'an city sisterhood; second, it followed closely China's traditional festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival on 27 September 2015; and third, it was the 66th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

The Cocktail party once again provided a platform for the communication and exchange of the Chinese and the local culture within the community.
