It may be difficult for some of you to be away from home on a holiday as important as Christmas--which happens to be the anniversary of the implementation of our constitution some 40 years ago. However, we hope that the warmth of friendship of our people will provide you with ample cheer to make this a joyous and memorable holiday season and new year.
各位遠離自己的故鄉在台北歡渡這個節日，可能難以盡興，不過我們希望中華民國人民的友誼與熱忱將給各位帶來無限的歡樂，而使耶誕及新年佳節充滿甜美回憶。
