Hubei Province donates 30,000 masks to NZ Hubei Economic Trade Cultural Association

Project narrative

On May 27, 2020, Hubei Province donated 30,000 medical face masks to NZ Hubei Economic Trade Cultural Association. The masks arrived in Christchurch on August 9. In order to make the customs clearance go smoothly, the executive president Dr Gong Qin of NZ Hubei Economic Trade Cultural Association, paid more than $2000 NZD for import GST for NZ customs clearance. During August 2020, the association distributed the masks to association members, delegates of Chinese New Zealanders, and some local organizations, organizations of the Christchurch city council and Waimakariri district council, and the associations, companies, schools, enterprise, and individuals whom supported and co-operated with our association in recent years, in a number of friendly exchange and culture exchange activities between New Zealand and China.
