Yes, it is lunisolar and is based on both the lunar month and the solar year.

Furthermore there are many lunisolar calendar around.
Sg is majority Chinese.. at least another two decades.
And officially our public holiday clearly state is CNY.

So to call Chinese new year or Chinese Lunar new year is more correct. So remove the word "Chinese" is technically and constitution wrong.
