In most countries Mother's Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in May, among them the USA, Canada, most European countries, Australia, New Zealand, India, China, Japan, the Philippines and South Africa.
Officially, China does in fact celebrate New Year's Day (åæ¦) on the Western (Gregorian) 1 January. In contrast, the traditional lunar new year is a public holiday named Spring Festival (æ¥è). Since the latter is a longer holiday, combined with ancient traditions, it predominates in people's minds as the real new year's day.
