Thanks for providing this link.

That's a very moving documentary, tying together the Chinese exclusion policies in the Americas and Australia and New Zealand. It wasn't just one or two countries.

This is first I heard of Mexican Chinese exclusion act. It would be interesting to find out more.

Helen, September 19 is the date of our Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations, and the venue is very close to me. You and LC have visited Chatswood on your visit last year. We had our first crab for lunch there, remember? I'll try to have a day off for it.

Lost years should be a great documentary - not based in our part of Canton, but the sentiments will be the same. We already had the mid Autumn dinner, and I missed both of the ones in Auckland, through being away.

Enjoy your dinner

Auckland session of Lost years was great - despite a small technical hitch. A good documentary for the younger people, and non Chinese. I think both don't know the half of what went on in our own country.

Just waiting for Australia to apologise. When? maybe a new PM might do the trick. Julia Gillard certainly didn't entertain the idea.
