In the wake of a devastating earthquake, Myanmar's Chinese business community is stepping up with urgent relief efforts. Lin Wenmeng, president of the Myanmar Chinese Chamber of Commerce, revealed to CGTN that over 1 billion Myanmar Kyat (about 3.4 million yuan) has been raised so far – but critical gaps remain in medical supplies.</p>
💬 “Every resource counts right now,” said Lin, speaking from Yangon on March 30. Local Chinese-owned businesses have mobilized quickly, channeling funds and manpower to support affected areas like Mandalay. The initiative reflects a tight-knit diaspora community’s role in crisis response.</p>
🌏 The effort also highlights broader trends of regional solidarity among Asian diaspora networks. As young professionals worldwide seek ways to contribute during emergencies, Lin’s update offers both inspiration and a call to action: “Collaboration is key to rebuilding.”</p>
