Shanxi University (SXU) located in Taiyuan, capital of North China's Shanxi province recently received a letter from Lee Ho-in, president of Jeonju University in South Korea.

The letter expressed his warm thanks for Shanxi University's help in the prevention and control of the novel coronavirus pneumonia, as well as best wishes to Shanxi University on the occasion of its 118th anniversary and the hope for furthering the existing long-term relationship with Shanxi University.

The sudden pandemic outbreak underscored the already firm friendship between the two universities. At the beginning of February, Jeonju University sent a letter of consolation and donated 1,000 protection face masks to SXU. Later in April, SXU returned the kindness and concern for Jeonju University with a donation of 2,000 face protection masks.
