I’m back home living in N. America now. Can anyone tell me if the Taiwanese gov’t has set a specific date for the 2003 Chinese New Year? Failing that, because I know the gov’t might change its mind closer to the time, do you know the official dates (particularly the end date) for the New Year?

Friday, January 31, through Wednesday, February 5 (inclusive).

I was going to say that it would have been even quicker if you’d used the search function as the answer has already been posted here and here. But it took me the same amount of time !
