(Fighting against New Coronary Pneumonia) Shen Jiashen: Mainland Support Team "Sends Charcoal in Snow" to Hong Kong's Anti-epidemic
China News Service, Hong Kong, August 6th (Reporter Zeng Ping) At the request of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, two mainland support teams, coordinated by the Central Government and organized by the National Health Commission, will conduct nucleic acid testing for the new crown virus and build "square cabin hospitals." Two parties assist Hong Kong in fighting the epidemic. In an interview with a reporter from China News Agency, Shen Jiashen, chairman of the Hong Kong Federation of Overseas Chinese Associations, said that the central government’s dispatch of a support team from the Mainland is "sending charcoal in the snow" at a critical moment in Hong Kong's fight against the epidemic.
"This is not only the love and concern for the lives and property of the vast number of Hong Kong residents, but also a strong support for the stability and long-term development of'one country, two systems'." Shen Jiashen said that the central government sent a support team from the mainland at the request of the SAR government to explain the central government to the world The people-oriented concept of governance is an ironclad love for Hong Kong citizens.
Shen Jiashen believes that the Mainland's support team will assist Hong Kong in both the nucleic acid testing of the new crown virus and the construction of a "square cabin hospital", which will definitely bring a fundamental change in the SAR's fight against the epidemic and reverse the situation of the epidemic. He pointed out that as everyone knows, the Mainland has very valuable experience in fighting the epidemic. Wuhan's success in repelling the epidemic shows that the new crown pneumonia epidemic can be overcome and controlled. This time, the medical teams from Wuhan and Guangdong sent by the central government are all skilled and experienced backbone elites in the medical field. They will surely play a vital role in Hong Kong's anti-epidemic work.
In Shen Jiashen's view, the construction of "square cabin hospitals" in the Mainland and the launch of rapid and comprehensive nucleic acid testing in Wuhan and Beijing are very successful examples of practical experience. Among them, the construction of a "square cabin hospital" has greatly reduced the pressure on hospital beds, allowing the hospital to concentrate on treating the seriously ill. "The central government has brought all these valuable experience and personnel to Hong Kong, which makes us very confident in Hong Kong's fight against the epidemic."
Shen Jiashen mentioned that it is outrageous that there are now opposition figures discrediting the rescue operations of the central government. He criticized this for disregarding the safety of all Hong Kong citizens. "If you want to fight this epidemic, everyone must work together." Shen Jiashen said that all sectors of Hong Kong must strictly abide by the epidemic prevention measures and cannot relax. If Hong Kong is unable to improve the epidemic, then the trade activities between Hong Kong and the global economy including the Mainland will be severely affected, which will undoubtedly make Hong Kong's economy worse.
"Compatriots in the overseas Chinese community in Hong Kong sincerely thank the central government for sending charcoal in the snow." Shen Jiashen said that the compatriots in the overseas Chinese community in Hong Kong expressed their firm support for the central government to send mainland support teams to Hong Kong to help fight the epidemic and will work together to protect the safety of Hong Kong.
