5月1日中午，翁氏总会于巴耶利峇千禧楼举行总会第37届暨互助会第32届（2019-2020年度）理事会就职典礼，并以主题"养恩大于天––你养我长大、我陪你到老"庆祝双亲节。出席活动的有总会会务顾问本立宗长、执委家属及会员宗亲，席开23桌。大家齐聚一堂见证新一届理事会的诞生及庆祝节日。
全体理事在名誉顾问兼产业信托人海春PBM以及秋夏仔宗长的监誓下，列队在台前面向宴会厅庄严地宣读誓词：
"余等谨以至诚接受会员之委托，就任翁氏总会第37届及互助会第32届（2019-2020年度）理事，遵守总会章程及服从议决案，共同为总会服务。谨此宣誓！"
宣誓完毕，由主席两光宗长开始，新任理事先后上台在宣誓册签名。之后，前任与本届财政进行交接仪式。至此，各职务的理事正式就职。
接着便是众人所期待的双亲节午宴。席间，妇女组副主任桦姿宗姐致欢迎词、名誉顾问海春PBM与主席两光宗长分别致勉励词。他们异口同声地祝愿所有的爸爸妈妈双亲节快乐、身体健康、乐享天伦。然而，过节本身仍有其意义所在。有些时候人们就是需要这样的节日作为一种提醒，告诉我们该抽空陪伴一直视为理所当然的家人。与此同时，舞台上也安排了一连串的歌唱演出，这些唱将多是由参与历届黄金年华歌唱节目的参赛者所组成的义唱团。这些歌唱爱好者在阵阵歌声、笑语中与出席嘉宾互动，大家同欢共乐，也给于我们的生活增添了丝丝温情。
午宴在下午3点结束。
At noon on 1 May, the Ang Shee General Association held the inauguration of its 37th Executive Committee and 32nd Benevolent Association Committee (2019-2020) in the Qian Xi Restaurant in Paya Lebar. The theme of the event was "Nurturing a Grace Greater than the Heavens: You Raised Me, Now Let Me Keep You Company in Your Old Age," in celebration of Parents' Day. There were 23 tables, and attending the event were Committee Advisor, Toon Lip, executive committee and families, and clan members. Everyone gathered to witness the inauguration of the new committee and celebrate the event.
As they were sworn in by honorary advisor and trustees Hai Choon PBM and Chew Ah Kia, all the elected committee members lined up in front of the stage to solemnly read the oath to all gathered in the banquet hall:
We sincerely accept the role of committee members of the 37th term of the Ang Shee General Association and the 32nd Committee members of the Ang Shee Benevolent Association (2019-2020) entrusted to us by the clan members, and we will abide by the Constitution and resolutions of the General Association and serve all the members of the Association. This our pledge.
After the oath was completed, led by the chairman, Lian Kwang, the newly appointed members of the committee each went onstage to sign the oath. This was followed by the handover ceremony between the previous treasurer and the current treasurer, after which the new council officially took office.
When the ceremony was completed, the much anticipated luncheon for the parents' Day began. During the banquet, Huay Tee, deputy director of the Women's Committee, gave a welcome speech, followed by speeches of encouragement by honorary advisor Hai Choon PBM and Chairman Lian Kwang. They unanimously wished all fathers and mothers a happy parents' day, good health, and enjoyable times with their families. The event itself reminded us of the meaning of Mother's and Father's Day, as sometimes we need such holidays to remind us not to constantly take our families for granted and to find some time to spend with them. This was followed by a series of singing performances, in which most of the singers were participants in the previous Golden Years Singing Programs. These singing enthusiasts interacted with the guests, filling the atmosphere with song and laughter. Everyone had a good time and was filled with warm feelings.
The luncheon ended at 3 pm.
