Happy New Year everyone, I hope you are having a wonderful holiday season!Here we are at the end of 2021, and the the beginning of 2022. Apparently the “fastest year” ever, due to the acceleration of the earth’s rotation. It certainly feels like things are moving faster and faster while time has compressed for us.我们又将要送走硕果累累的一年，迎接崭新的2022年。由于地球自转的加速，2021年成为有史以来 "最快的一年"。我们明显地感觉到周遭的一切都发展得越来越快，而时间也像被不断压缩。
In 2021 we saw the ongoing rapid response to Covid-19 global health emergency, the announcement of commitments related to climate change; the Completion of the 2020 Olympic Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo and we now look forward to the imminent Winter Olympic Games in Beijing next month, such sporting events showcasing the worlds athletes allowing us to share in their effort and triumph, their tears and their joy. To marvel at their gifts and their dedication.2021年，我们看到了全球应对Covid-19大流行的公共卫生紧急情况的持续快速反应，宣布了与气候变化相关的承诺。2020年日本东京夏季奥林匹克运动会圆满闭幕，我们期待下个月即将在北京举行的冬季奥林匹克运动会。如此的体育赛事展示了全世界运动员的风采，我们在分享他们的喜悦、荣耀和泪水的同时，惊叹于他们的天赋和意志力。

In these 25 years, we have developed and nurtured a business model based on sharing knowledge, one that fosters trust. The collaborative environment we have created for open standards innovation, exposes each of us to the ideas and inspiration of our global community. It is also a place to build friendships and be a leader of ideas and of delivering industry changing executable standards.25年来，我们为开放标准的发展培育了一个基于知识共享的商业模式和合作共赢的环境，以此撬动信念、知识和梦想，收获信任、启迪和友谊，形成了引领行业可执行标准的全球影响力社区。
In 2021, we have delivered an array of valuable open technology standards. These have an impact in the energy, manufacturing, environmental, government, and healthcare, sectors amongst others.

In the context of SASAC guidelines for digital transformation of local companies, the LWG brings together subject matter experts and provides a dynamic, open platform for industry collaboration, representing a innovative practice to advance the integration of China’s physical and digital economy.过去一年，我们在中国上海，见证了诸多创举。2021年7月，我们重新组建了本地化工作小组。这次重组响应了国资委对本土企业数字化转型的指引，为业界提供开放合作的平台，是促进中国实体经济和数字经济融合发展的创新实践。
The activities of our China Headquartered Members, our volunteers and staff along with our international counterparts bears testimony to the fact that The Open Group's global reputation is based on the combined effort of its members, local communities and partners. 我们与中国总部的会员单位、本地化专家志愿者、员工以及国际同行的合作证明了这样一个事实：这也再次说明，The Open Group的全球声誉离不开其成员、当地社区和合作伙伴的齐心合力。
Here I can not enumerate each one's contributions in this community effort. But we can recognize the shared passion, resilience, and commitment to excellence that constitutes the driving force for us to proceed and progress.我们无法历数每个人的付出，但我们能感受到那一颗颗满怀激情、追求卓越的心，以及凝聚而成的坚实力量。这种力量，是我们不断向前的重要保证。
