On the morning of April 26, the provincial and municipal joint construction of the "Overseas Chinese Heart Forest" tree planting activity was held in Qinyang Peninsula, Jinshan Sub-district, Meijiang District. Cui Yi, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Minister of the United Front Work Department, Zhong Wei, Director of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Division of the United Front Work Department of the Provincial Party Committee, all cadres and workers of the United Front Work Department of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Federation of Overseas Chinese, representatives of overseas Chinese and their relatives in Meijiang and representatives of members of the Municipal Federation of Overseas Chinese Scholars, as well as nearly 100 cadres from relevant units in Meijiang District and Jiangnan Sub-district Office attended the event.
On the day of the event, all the staff overcame difficulties such as mud in rainy days, divided labor and cooperated, and worked together to plant tree species such as iron holly and pot-bellied kapok, and further promoted the "Overseas Chinese Aid Guangdong High-quality Development Action" and the "Overseas Chinese Aid Guangdong High-quality Development Action" and the "Overseas Chinese Aid Project" action with practical actions. Chen Yuhua, Huang Guanyou, Guan Zhulin, representatives of overseas Chinese, etc., said that the "Overseas Chinese Heart Forest" is a beautiful symbol of overseas Chinese and their hometowns, and retains their nostalgic memories of the beautiful countryside, and hopes that everyone will continue to pay attention to the construction and maintenance of the "Overseas Chinese Heart Forest" and add green and color to the high-quality development of their hometowns.
It is understood that in order to help the ecological construction of Lumei Guangdong, the province's overseas Chinese affairs system calls on the majority of overseas Chinese to actively participate in the "Overseas Chinese Heart Forest" public welfare donation activities, and widely mobilizes overseas Chinese groups, overseas Chinese business organizations, and overseas Chinese charitable organizations to select and donate high-quality tree seedlings suitable for planting in Guangdong on a global scale, especially in Southeast Asia and other neighboring countries, and advocate overseas Chinese to "donate seedlings for thousands of miles", and plant large-scale "overseas Chinese heart forests" in qualified towns and villages, so as to guide overseas Chinese to enter their hometowns and plant overseas Chinese forests, and jointly build a spiritual home for overseas Chinese.
The united front work departments at all levels in Meizhou City seized the golden period of afforestation in spring, relying on the unique resource advantages of the united front, and extensively guided and mobilized people from all walks of life of the united front to actively participate in the "Twenty Forests and Green" action in Lumei Meizhou, and helped the ecological construction of Lumei Meizhou with practical actions. By mid-April 2024, a total of more than 10.3 million yuan has been raised to carry out the construction of "theme forests" such as "merchant forest", "concentric forest", "overseas Chinese heart forest", "unity forest" and "Heshun forest". Among them, a total of more than 3.5 million yuan was mobilized for the construction of the "Overseas Chinese Heart Forest".
