The China Mall director has been at the forefront of a campaign to ease the plight of needy families.
Being selfless in helping people in need during the coronavirus outbreak, which has affected thousands in South Africa, is something China Mall director Robin Xu and several other members of the Chinese business community have taken to heart.
Adorned with a large banner on each side, with a message: “#WeLoveSouthAfrica” and emblazoned with the South African and People’s Republic of China flags, the truck, received at Pimville’s Nike Sports Centre by Ward 25 councillor Raynett Moabi and Wits University student Sithembiso Nhlapo, has been seen as being among several initiatives by business to address community hardship since the lockdown to curb the spread of Covid-19.
“Many of us have contributed to the fight by taking good care of employees, making donations to the Solidarity Fund and helping out with people in need. “There are many people who are suffering and equally making sacrifices, with a hope of bringing the situation under control.”
