Its a shame people are reaching conclusions and post harsh views and details without really knowing what is going on and without contacting the organizers. My name is Erez and I also am not a very observant Jew, but being away from home for many years I find Chabad's work very important if only to keep a little of the customs and traditions that are so far away from me here in China. I have visited all Chabad houses in China and was never forced to do or say anything I didn't believe in, and my liberal views were always respected.
As to the remarks above- The Chabad family just arrived in Kunming this Sunday with only a few days to adjust and prepare. Though not being familiar with Kunming or with Chinese language they have been going out of their way to prepare a meal and celebrate the new year. The matter of fact is due to rushed organization, food and time limits they are trying to keep it small for this holiday. In the future they will have an open door to all, of course with the restrictions of Chinese law.
If you prefer having you own celebration no problem, great ! But there is no need to write harsh things without being familiar with the situation.
Wherever you will be my friends, I wish you an happy new year!
