This week’s Birmingham Brief comes to you from Miller Rose HQ, where we caught up with James Wong, a central figure in Birmingham’s Chinese community. 🏮 The Chinese New Year brings a sense of optimism and new beginnings, with the Year of the Horse promising wealth, health, and happiness. From lion dances warding off bad luck to the first-ever New Year market in Chinatown, James highlighted how traditions continue to connect families, businesses, and visitors, keeping the area vibrant and evolving. 🔑 What makes Chinatown special isn’t just the celebrations. It’s the convergence of culture, commerce, and community, all coming together in a part of the city that thrives on energy, resilience, and growth. Whether you are exploring, investing, or celebrating, paying attention to areas like Birmingham and the people who shape them reveals how the city is evolving today and where it is headed tomorrow.
