The 2016 New Year's Gala of SWUPL was held at the Student Activity Center on 30th December 2015. Domestic and foreign students brought their best performances and made this a truly international event.

Student representatives from ASEAN and other countries showcased Han-style clothes (i.e. the traditional clothes of Han people in China). Students from Cambodia, Myanmar, Vietnam and Laos took part in the show. They brought a fresh feeling to the audience by wearing traditional Chinese costumes. At the end of the performance, they spoke New Year's wishes in their native language.

As a result of diligently rehearsing the show for six times in more than a week, the performance was greeted with warm welcome. The student performers also deepened their understanding of the Chinese culture by participating in this event.
