Happy Chinese New Year Eve to all of our Members, colleagues and friends. This is the Year Of The Wood Snake. The Snake, associated with wisdom, intuition and good fortune, is the sixth animal in the 12-year cycle of the Chinese Zodiac. The cycle of animals incorporates one of the five elements; wood, fire, earth, metal or water thus creating a 60-year cycle. Therefore, the year of the Wood Snake was last celebrated in 1965. #LunarNewYear #MaritimeIndustry #LegalCostsInsurance #ChineseNewYear
