According to the Chinese calendar, the Lunar New Year starts on Monday 8 February, which is a national holiday in China as well as in Greater China and for Chinese worldwide.

The lunar calendar is divided into 12-year cycles, with each year represented by an animal and 2016 that is the monkey. People born in the Year of the Monkey are said to have great personalities, and are both witty and intelligent. They can also be mischievous, playful and sometimes a little naughty.

The Year of the Monkey promises to be an exciting year for Bamboo, as we further expand the width of our services and our portfolio, and take on a lot of fun and challenging new projects. We wish all of our clients, our partners and freelancers around China and the Asia-Pacific a truly great Year of the Monkey!
