FG Wilson Hong Kong Donate to Sichuan Earthquake Relief

On 12th May 2008, a devastating earthquake struck Sichuan Province in southwest China. The earthquake caused significant loss of life and major damage to the area's infrastructure. A three year regeneration project has now been put in place to assist the region's recovery.

A relief campaign has been established to benefit victims of the earthquake and assist in rebuilding the region. FG Wilson Hong Kong and its mainland China employees have generously contributed to this with a donation of 556,558 RMB (US$80,000). The donation took place as part of a televised fundraiser where Mr Xu Nai Qiang, General Manager of FG Wilson Shantou FTZ, presented the cheque. The amount raised also includes personal donations from many staff members.

FG Wilson (Engineering) Ltd has donated a generator set to the relief campaign to assist in the supply of prime power where it is needed most during the emergency operation.
