On September 6, 2018, Chargé d'Affaires and Political Counselor of the Chinese Embassy in Lesotho Mr. Song Changqing pledged to donate 66,600 Maloti each year to the Lesotho Queen's Hlokomela Banana or Care for Girls (关爱女童) campaign. The purpose of this campaign is to ensure 1000 female students in the country can attend school during the menstruation period by donating sanitary products to three schools in Butha-Buthe. A ceremony was also held for the donation of sanitary wear to girls from the three schools on the same day.
