Zhuhai donates anti-epidemic supplies to Sister Cities
Sister Cities in France and South Korea have been donated anti-epidemic supplies from Zhuhai to help them overcome shortages amid the global COVID-19 pandemic.
Currently, 120,000 disposable medical masks are being sent to Paris and Nice, Zhuhai's friendly exchange city, with a note of "United, we will win" on the packages, in appreciation for 120,000 masks and 650 protective suits donated by France to Zhuhai in February.
The shipment was loaded March 27 onto an EMS vehicle bound for Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport after being inspected and cleared by Gongbei Customs at Shangchong Post Office.

Moreover, Zhuhai sent 20,000 medical masks via EMS to the Sister City of Suwon in South Korea on March 31 after learning of the COVID-19 impact there. Suwon had sent condolences to Zhuhai amid the domestic outbreak of the epidemic.
The donations reached Suwon by April 6, while those for France will arrive at their destinations soon.
