The beauty of New Zealand's tolerance is fully displayed in the multicultural Easter party.
On April 19, 2025, an Easter cultural party full of laughter, singing, dancing and food was held at the Te Atatu Community Center in West Auckland, New Zealand, gathering immigrant communities from all over the world to participate. The party was hosted by the veteran multicultural immigrant organization HOPE Alliance. As part of the promotion of multicultural immigrant culture, it not only showcased the talents and cultural heritage of immigrants from various states, but also demonstrated the openness and tolerance of New Zealand's multicultural society.
The venue was spacious and warm, with various ribbons and lights creating a joyful festive atmosphere. First, Dr. Ma Li, Chairman of the HOPE Alliance, gave a welcome speech and introduced the multicultural groups that appeared tonight, from: Pakistan, India, Japan, South Korea, China, Colombia, Russia, Haiti, Africa..., and especially expressed gratitude that the Manchuria team had prepared rich food for the party. The local Maori elders gave a speech of thanks, and the Maori team performed a unique Haka war dance, which was like a big competition. The fierce and ferocious rhythm of the faces, the powerful and powerful roar, the thunderous roar, and the sharp eyes instantly ignited the atmosphere of the whole audience and kicked off the evening party.
Then, the host from South Asia, with his fluent English and humorous expression style, led the audience to participate in an interactive guessing game with the theme of "World Culture". This game is interesting and uses various cultural phenomena as clues to invite the audience to guess the cultural characteristics of different countries. Those who guess correctly can also taste small prizes of chocolate. The audience was excited to participate. Not only did they have fun, but they also got to know more about the customs and traditions under different cultural backgrounds.
The Chinese immigrant team brought an elegant social dance performance. They were dressed elegantly, cooperated well, danced smoothly and expressively, and showed the gorgeous beauty of Western round dance, including Spanish bullfighting, tango, rumba, waltz... several sections, especially the rhythm and structure of Western dance, which won the applause of the audience.
The most exciting was the Colombian immigrant team, who brought two Latin-style dances. The cheerful music rhythm, enthusiastic dance formations, gorgeous costumes, and infectious smiles made people feel as if they were in a rural festival in South America, pushing the whole audience to a climax of enthusiasm and vitality.
It was touching that each performance team was polite and elegant and bowed again and again. Finally, all the performers, the audience and volunteers gathered in front of the stage for a big group photo. People from different countries and cultural backgrounds stood side by side with smiles on their faces, wearing their own gorgeous costumes, and looked particularly gorgeous and moving under the flash. The atmosphere was friendly and everyone greeted each other. The photographer's shutter flashed, freezing this scene of diversity, unity and friendship. This not only recorded a successful party, but also symbolized the beautiful vision of all ethnic groups coexisting and coexisting harmoniously on the land of New Zealand.
At dinner time, the Manchurian Cultural Association provided handmade Manchurian buns. The tough outer skin and delicious fillings were memorable and were warmly welcomed by the guests and sold out first. The organizers prepared a variety of Pakistani-style food, including curry chicken, bean stew and spiced naan, etc. There were also desserts with different flavors, sweet but not greasy, and refreshing drinks to quench thirst, which fully met the taste needs of guests from different cultural backgrounds.
At the table time, new and old friends, while tasting the food, talked and laughed, introduced their own cultural backgrounds, and spoke languages such as English, Maori, Chinese, Japanese, French, Russian, Spanish... interweaving a beautiful picture of multi-language and multi-cultural harmonious coexistence. Many friends were interested in listening to the introduction of Manchuria's history and culture. In particular, some Chinese people expressed their sympathy and understanding for Manchuria, and even found that they were also Manchurians, and exchanged their techniques for making steamed buns with great interest.
This evening party is a vivid display of multiculturalism in real life. It allows immigrants from different backgrounds to gather together in a common festive atmosphere to share each other's culture and stories, and also shows that New Zealand society actively embraces diversity and tolerance. On this Easter night, everyone became a part of this multicultural feast, and also gained their own warmth and touch!
Many first-time guests were pleasantly surprised and expressed their hope to participate in more community activities in the future and further integrate into the multicultural family of New Zealand. When the party ended, they were still reluctant to leave, and took photos to record this unforgettable moment. Everyone believes that this Easter cultural evening party is not only a celebration of the festival, but also an exchange and integration of cultures. The author also hopes that through such a platform, everyone living in New Zealand can feel respected and accepted, no matter where they come from or what language they speak.
On the evening of April 20, the Manchuria Cultural Association continued to gather to celebrate the successful visit of Mr. Li Jiaming, president of Manchuria Review, to the United States, to spread the friendship and goodwill of the Manchuria community in New Zealand, and to discuss the survival of the Manchuria community and the hope of the restoration movement in the gap between the power of China, Russia and the United States. The dark days are more poetic.
