The Hong De Lion was present at the first campaign for Lord Mayor fundraising event for Team Melbourne tonight at Dragon Boat Palace.  Over 200 guests were present and John So, the current Lord Mayor was a special VIP guest at the event.  Team Melbourne consists of Gary Singer (Lord Mayor candidate), Joanne Painter (Deputy Lord Mayor candidate), Ken Ong, Jerome Borazio, Trent Symth and Marion Adler-Bishop (Councillor candidates).  The Hong De Lion donated the performance tonight and all red packets collected by the lion were donated to the campaign.  We wish Team Melbourne all the best in the forthcoming Council elections.
