(Bandar Seri Begawan, 3rd) Chairman of the Brunei Fujian Association, Fang Yianhe, stated: Today, we are filled with immense joy as we warmly welcome friends who have come from afar. First of all, on behalf of all colleagues at the Brunei Fujian Association, I would like to extend my sincerest greetings and a most enthusiastic welcome to the Tsinghua University “Gu Wang Jin Lai” Overseas Practice Team!
Tsinghua University, as China's top institution of higher learning, has cultivated generations of outstanding talents under the school motto of “Self-discipline and Social Commitment.” The “Gu Wang Jin Lai” overseas practice project further embodies the broad vision and sense of responsibility of Tsinghua students, who stand firm in China while keeping a global perspective. All of you have traveled thousands of miles to Brunei to conduct in-depth research and community practice overseas; this spirit of unity between knowledge and action and putting learning into practice is truly admirable.
He said, although Brunei and China are separated by mountains and seas, the friendship between the peoples of the two countries has a long history. The predecessors from Fujian and Kinmen who crossed the sea have worked diligently and set down roots in this land, making significant contributions to the prosperity of Brunei while always keeping their motherland in mind and striving to pass down Chinese culture. Today, your arrival as Tsinghua students not only brings us youth and vitality, but also allows us to feel the warmth and care from our ancestral homeland.
We believe that through this visit, you will gain a deeper understanding of the history and current status of the Bruneian Fujian and Kinmen communities, experiencing the blend and charm of diverse cultures. At the same time, we also hope that you will bring what you have seen, felt, and thought in Brunei back to Tsinghua, becoming witnesses and promoters of friendly exchanges between China and Brunei.
Finally, he sincerely wished the Tsinghua University “Gu Wang Jin Lai” Overseas Practice Team a smooth and successful trip to Brunei, hoping that all students will gain knowledge, friendship, and growth through this experience! He also wishes for the everlasting friendship between China and Brunei!
