The Fujian Association of Guyana has donated $3.26 million to the Civil Defence Commission (CDC) to support relief efforts for those affected by the MV Barima tragedy.
The donation was presented during a simple ceremony at the CDC Headquarters in Thomas Lands. The funds were raised primarily by Fujian entrepreneurs living and working in Guyana through personal and corporate contributions.
The Association said the donation reflects the Chinese community's solidarity with the people of Guyana and its commitment to supporting the country during times of need.
The handover was attended by representatives of the Chinese Embassy, including Counselor Li Hanqing and Director Wang Kaojie, along with Lieutenant Colonel Mark Thomas, Deputy Director General of the Civil Defence Commission.
During the ceremony, officials discussed the use of the funds and future humanitarian cooperation. On behalf of the CDC, Lieutenant Colonel Thomas thanked the Fujian Association and the wider Chinese community for their generous support, describing it as a meaningful demonstration of compassion and friendship.
The Fujian Association also extended its deepest condolences to the families of those who lost loved ones in the tragedy and reaffirmed its commitment to continuing humanitarian support for the people of Guyana.
