w88 casino News Network (provided by the International Business Chinese Base)On the afternoon of October 15, local time, the Golden Peacock Hotel Conference Center in Lilongwe, the capital of Malawi, was bustling with people. The Confucius Institute at the University of Malawi, the Chinese Medical Team to Aid Malawi, the Association for the Promotion of Peaceful Reunification of China, the Lilongwe Chinese Chamber of Commerce and the Chamber of Commerce of Chinese Enterprises jointly organized the “China Medical Team to Aid Malawi’s First Free Clinic in 2017” for the Chinese in Malawi. At the same time, the Confucius Institute at the University of Malawi also held a publicity and registration event for the “Comprehensive Training Project for Overseas Chinese Community Service” in Lilongwe City at the entrance of the conference center. Counselor Liu Guoyu of the Economic and Commercial Office of the Chinese Embassy in Malawi attended the event and delivered a speech. All other staff of the office also attended the event.

The free clinic and training course promotion and registration activities started at 14:00 local time. The free clinic provided local Chinese and overseas Chinese with a full range of consultation, including radiology, surgery, internal medicine, gynecology, pediatrics, etc. Diagnosis and treatment items include blood pressure, blood sugar, body temperature and specific disease detection. In addition, the medical team also provided the patient with compound grass coral lozenges, safflower oil, daxonine and other medicines free of charge based on the patient's condition. During the event, five doctors from the medical team performed measurements and diagnoses for more than 300 Chinese and overseas Chinese. Six teachers from the Confucius Institute at the University of Malawi and their families also participated in relevant consultation services.

While the free clinic activities are in full swing inside the conference center, the publicity and registration activities for the "Overseas Chinese Community Service Comprehensive Training Project" at the entrance of the conference center are also in progress. There is an endless stream of overseas Chinese who come to consult and sign up. It is reported that the first training course for overseas Chinese will officially start on October 30. The training course covers two major subjects: Chinese and English, including Chinese Pinyin, Chinese character reading, Chinese culture, Chinese Tai Chi, and basic English writing and speaking. This project aims to help overseas Chinese integrate into local society faster and better, help children systematically learn Chinese and understand traditional Chinese culture, so that Chinese culture can be passed on even thousands of miles away in Africa.

At 17:00 local time, training promotion registration and free clinic activities end. This free clinic allowed many Chinese and overseas Chinese to get preliminary diagnoses of their diseases and brought them warmth; the "Chinese and Overseas Chinese Community Service Comprehensive Training Project" not only helped Chinese and overseas Chinese overcome daily communication barriers in Malawi, but also allowed Chinese culture such as local accents to be passed down in foreign countries.
