Lu Jinyu is considered as the “senior Chinese” by local people of Tawau, namely the second-generation Chinese born in Malaysia. He has successfully participated in many cases of the consular protection of China’s overseas embassies and consulates. “In the past, most of overseas Chinese in Malaysia were labors engaged in fi shing and agricultural production. However, now more overseas Chinese in Malaysia are investors, members of companies and teams of urban construction and tourists.” Lu Jinyu said that, in recent years, many accidents like that Chinese tourists drowned for improper operation while diving and attacked by wildlife for breaking rules while visiting parks happened frequently. He particularly admonished us to follow advice off ered by local people and tour guide to avoid accidents.

“In the years to come, trade between Germany and China will be more convenient with Chongqing-Sinkiang-Europe International Railway.” Li Xianqiu, an overseas Chinese from Frankfurt, praised “Chongqing-Sinkiang-Europe International Railway” as an important link between Asia and Europe after visiting the departure station of Chongqing-Sinkiang-Europe International Railway and Unity Village Station in the Chongqing Railway Container Center. He believes that cities in China like Chongqing are not inferior to cities in Germany in buildings and green landscape, and that the economy of Chongqing is growing at a rapid speed that Germans can not even imagine.

Chinese overseas students in Canada should avoid “showing off their wealth”

Lang Wenling, Secretary-General of the Jiangxi Fellow Association in Canada

Lang Wenling said, “Chongqing is a metropolis, the visit make us get to know what is ‘One Belt and One Road’ initiative and the important position and role Chongqing played in the initiative. And Chongqing, in the forefront of reform, left us a deep impression for its braveness in making progress.” Ms. Lang said that with the rising income of Chinese people, many Chinese students in Canada are easy to be the prey of criminals because of their lavish lifestyle off ered by their affl uent families. Therefore, advice for overseas students is not to show off their wealth. When sharing housing with others, there may be some occasional contradictions or conflicts caused by differences in personality, habits, and hobbies between roommates, so we should be cautious in choosing roommates. In addition, it should be noted that Canadian police are equipped with guns, hence we should cooperate with police in investigation, and don’t take blind actions to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding. She also told us that there are a large number of consular protection liaisons in Canada who are dedicated to helping Chinese citizens out of troubles. Liaisons are in a functional Wechat group, in the event of an emergency, the Wechat group always can transmit eff ective information in the shortest time and members can work together to fi nd the best solution.

Watching out for thieves and robbers in South Africa

Zheng Xingli, Chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in South Africa

He told journalists that Chinese people to South Africa should avoid carrying and using a plenty of cash. South Africa has advanced financial system, various domestic bank cards like VISA, MASTERCARD or Union-Pay can be used in South African major airports, tourism cities and commercial cities. In other words, tourists do not pay by cash if possible. Pay attention to places of exchanging money to avoid being tailed after and robbed, and places crammed with motley crew are inappropriate to exchange money. Keep a cool head even if being robbed, because your panic actions will only make things worse if robbers have guns. If necessary, purchase precious commodities like diamonds, gold, jewelry in local secure and formal stores, and leave the country as soon as possible. What’s more, do not spit freely, as locals regard the habit as disrespect to others.

Respecting local folk customs in foreign countries is very important

Zhang Wei, Chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam and the Sichuan-Chongqing Association of Enterprises, Standing Director of Sichuan Overseas Exchange Association

As the chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam and the Sichuan-Chongqing Association of Enterprises, Zhang Wei is no stranger to Chongqing with many chances to visit Chongqing. In his eyes, Chongqing is a beautiful metropolis, situated by hills and near rivers. The speed of city construction can be described with the phrase “changing with each passing day”. Each journey to Chongqing, he can fi nd new changes there. Chongqing-Sinkiang-Europe International Railway is a bridge of Chongqing in opening up to the west. Chongqing possesses obvious advantages in area of foreign trade import in the opening pattern of “The Belt and Road’ initiative. He believes that such national policy can help Chongqing to reach out to the world and accelerate the course of international business.

He suggested that Chinese people should respect local customs and make preparations before going to work or travel in Vietnam. Don’t put passport and money together. The procedures to reissue travel documents are complicated and time-consuming, which means holders should provide necessary materials and their identities should be verified in China. In addition, passport should be carried with ourselves to avoid being stolen or robbed. The missing of passport will influence the return to home and disarrange the next schedule.
