A Heartwarming Scene on the Streets of Tokyo: Chinese Enterprises Association in Japan and the Heilongjiang Provincial Fellow-Townsmen Association Distribute Masks Free of Charge

Tokyo, February 26th (People's Daily Online) - With the completion of a donation table, a free distribution of masks to the Japanese public was launched in Shinjuku, Tokyo, under the slogan "Give me a wooden peach and repay it with Qiong Yao". The China Enterprise Association in Japan and the Heilongjiang Provincial Association in Japan actively organized association members and overseas Chinese as volunteers to take to the streets to convey warmth towards Japan. They are willing to work together with the Japanese people to overcome the difficulties of the epidemic, and fully assist and support the Japanese people in winning the battle against epidemic prevention and control.

The epidemic knows no borders, there is true love in the world. "The domestic COVID-19 affects the hearts of all overseas Chinese. The China Enterprise Association in Japan is willing to actively fulfill its corporate social responsibility, actively respond to the call of the Chinese Embassy in Japan, and organize Chinese enterprises in Japan to donate money and materials." Wang Jiaxun, president of the China Enterprise Association in Japan, told reporters on the spot. President Wang Jiaxun also brought masks donated by the association. He said, "Since the outbreak of the epidemic, the Japanese government and people have extended a helping hand, sending batches of relief supplies and heartwarming words to China. Gratitude and gratitude are traditional virtues of our Chinese nation. The China Enterprise Association in Japan and the Heilongjiang Provincial Association in Japan hope to repay the true feelings and goodwill of the Japanese people towards us. May China and Japan work together to cope with and overcome the epidemic

In the chilly spring weather, volunteers delivered the warmth and sincere gratitude from China to the hands of the Japanese people on the streets of Tokyo. Before the outbreak, about 70% of Japanese masks relied on imports from China. At the same time as the spread of the epidemic in Japan, with the arrival of spring and the spread of hay fever, the demand for masks among the public has further expanded. Masks are now quite scarce in Japan. Masks are no longer available in Tokyo, and the counters in supermarkets and convenience stores are empty. We are very happy to receive masks. Unfortunately, the virus is causing trouble, and we hope that Japan and China can work together to overcome this difficulty. "Three young Japanese women who received free masks expressed their gratitude to China to the reporter.

Show your true colors in times of crisis, and take responsibility for big and difficult things. Tan Bing, Vice President of the China Enterprises Association in Japan and President of COSCO Shipping Japan, told reporters on site: "In this epidemic, our Chinese enterprises have shown a responsible image as a major country enterprise. Under the leadership of the embassy and the China Enterprises Association in Japan, our enterprises must take the initiative and take proactive actions, and do our best to fight against the epidemic prevention and control. During the free distribution of masks for over an hour, volunteers representing the China Enterprise Association in Japan and the Heilongjiang Provincial Association came to the streets of Tokyo to spread positive energy, convey the blessings of the Chinese people, and bring warmth and confidence to the Japanese people.

The reporter saw that when volunteers were preparing to distribute masks, each person carefully cleaned their hands with alcohol and opened the entire box of masks one by one for individual packaging. It is reported that the Heilongjiang Association has prepared a large number of masks for this event. The epidemic situation of pneumonia caused by novel coronavirus is serious, which always affects the hearts of overseas Chinese in Japan. Heilongjiang Association of Fellows actively supports their hometown to send donated materials to China urgently. In the face of the epidemic, overseas Chinese in Japan also hope to pass on this positive energy to our Japanese friends, gather strong forces to fight against the epidemic, and jointly fight against the epidemic with practical actions. "Wang Xuguang, the president of the Heilongjiang Association in Japan, solemnly expressed his willingness to convey warmth to the reporter.

The number of novel coronavirus infections in Japan is rising. The love transmission of overseas Chinese in Japan is not only the free distribution of masks on the streets of Tokyo this time. Chinese enterprises and overseas Chinese volunteer groups all over Nagoya and Osaka have shown their sincerity and contributed their own strength to the mutual help between the two countries. In the face of the common epidemic, many touching stories have taken place that warm the hearts of both countries, and countless moves have been gained. We believe that the positive energy of overcoming the epidemic will surely accumulate and become a powerful force for China and Japan to join hands in fighting against the epidemic.

On February 24th, the Chinese Enterprises Association in Japan and the Heilongjiang Association in Japan distributed free masks to Japanese people on the streets of Tokyo.
