2月20日（星期六）晚，新澤西美華協會（OCA-NJ）在位於Avenel市1號公路旁的金鳳軒海鮮酒家舉辦了年度中國新年聚餐。 當天共有一百多位會員參加，場面熱鬧。作為一個為華裔爭取權益的非營利性組織，美華協會今年餐會探討的主題是華裔梁警官誤殺非裔一案。會長朱惠珍女士表示 對梁警官判決不公，呼籲華裔聲援全美範圍的抗議。同時，她也提到，美華協會全美範圍的年會將在7月下旬於新州的澤西市舉行，期盼會員們如期出席。更多資 訊，見美華協會新澤西分會網址：https://www.oca-nj.org/。

On February 20th, OCA New Jersey held its annual Lunar New Year dinner at Royal Seafood Restaurant in Avenel, NJ celebrating The Year of The Monkey.  Over a hundred members attended this spectacular festivity.  As a non-profit civil right national organization, they discussed the recent controversial verdict on former-NYPD Officer Peter Liang’s manslaughter case.   OCA-NJ President Virginia Ng expressed that this verdict is unjust and unfair, and urged all Chinese-Americans for solidarity by joining the protests nationwide to support Office Liang.  Also, she announced that the annual OCA National Convention will be held in Jersey City, NJ this year from July 21st to 24th and inviting all the members to attend and support this convention.  For information regarding OCA-NJ and the National Convention, please visit OCA New Jersey’s website @ www.oca-nj.com/.
