Another act of collaborative generosity

17 September 2020
in Community, Health, PRESS RELEASE
1 min. read
Embassy of the People's Republic of China in Grenada's Deputy Chief of Mission, Yang Shijun with Grenadian woman beneficiary
Share

The Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in Grenada continued its generosity and friendship to the Grenadian people by collaborating with the Grenada China Friendship Association and distributing 100 food bags to vulnerable people throughout Grenada on Saturday, 12 September 2020.

The food drive which started in June 2020 has benefitted 300 Grenadian families so far. This collaborative initiative between the Embassy and the Association is meant to offset some of the challenges that people are experiencing due to the effects of Covid-19.

Three teams of representatives from the Embassy and the Association patronised several supermarkets whose employees prepared the grocery bags. In distributing the food bags, the teams brought an additional surprise of a stuffed panda to children in families who benefitted from the food drive.

The food bags contained goods that could create meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner. One St David resident claimed that the food drive was the first type of charity that her village has received since the passage of Hurricane Ivan.

The Chinese Embassy representatives were enthused by their engagement with the communities and especially pleased to see that Grenadians accept their kindness.

    I am not Grenadian but have had family there.
    BEWARE OF GIFTS FROM A COMMUNIST COUNTRY!!! They will come at a price too high. Look at Venezuela. Be wary. Check out Crossroads with Joshua Philip on Youtube.

    Why are grenadians so ungrateful?? They should be so happy. Atleast they are doing something good and something that no other grenadians would do. People need to stop using these rumors going around and just shut up. Instead of complaining go to iga buy some food and supplies. Put them in a paper bag and distribute them to people in need. Dont just sit down there and run your mouth on the government and chinese. GO OUT THERE AND DO SOMETHING YOURSELVES AND STOP COMPLAINING. I am so angry that all grenadians can do is complain to do something. It’s so sad to see how much stupid and dumb we have become. Dont just complain. Go out there and help.

        Seems like you are one of the beneficiaries, not meaning to be snide but… See it’s not about giving out food. China has never been philanthropy minded unless there is something that they want! Please stop being so blind and do your research! Please its not about the food. It’s what they want and they want Grenada…they want land. China is a cointry that kills and imprison its citizens on a whim…dont believe me, ask the Christians, it’s people are under 24 hour surveilance, don’t believe me, try yo find a free radio station in China. Africa and other coubtries are trying to get them out with tremendous fights because of how deeply they have been in bed with them. Other countries are waking up to the horibble realisation that doing business with China was their undoing. If your eyes are truly on the future for your children and Grenada being your home solely, you would have understood already that this world is in a crisis financially. Stable economies are finding it difficult to find food for their people. China knows that because they have lost a lot of produce to the recent floods. Please Gtenadians do not look at the short term handouts. Think future, think long term. Don’t sell out your beautiful country for a few canned goods. If you own your own land..your breadfruit, mangoes and tannia are more important than even money right now. Please Mr or ms. OK , do your research!!!

          Well listen I stand against foreigners trying to take over. But we grenadians can atleast do something to help eachother. That way the chinese dont out do us. That’s the problem. Foreign hotels are being built and not enough local hotels are being built and that’s the problem. We need to do more than foreigners.

          You are so right and it’s sad that most people won’t see that. China has not only bought the government, they now have control of the airport. They have slowly been building their own businesses(hotels and healthcare centres to name a few) and now they are trying to buy the people with a few can of beans that cost them nothing. Grenadians need to wake up and see this handout for what it really is, a buy in into the island that they will soon no longer be able to call home. Nothing good has ever came from china. Their products are Garbage and their people are snakes who only look out for themselves.
