Dear Ministry for Ethnic Communities,

I noted,
https://www.ethniccommunities.govt.nz/ne...

"The event, attended by esteemed dignitaries, members of Parliament (MPs), diplomatic corps, and community leaders, marked a significant milestone in acknowledging the Lunar New Year's broader cultural significance."

May I kindly ask how do you select the invitee, do you have a list or how you know who to invite? what is your selection process?

Yours faithfully,

john luke
