Despite the outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia, many expats say that they feel safe in Hainan after seeing the various measures that the province has taken to contain the epidemic, as well as the efficiency of local government departments in this situation.
The community in which I live strictly implemented the government measures, and the staff have been telling everyone not to go out, wash their hands, and wear masks; it is really reassuring to see all these actions taking place, said Nicki Johnson from Chicago, whose Chinese name is Xie Min. She has been living in Hainan for 15 years and has been engaged in the tourism promotion business for many years.
Right now, Hainan's tourism industry is going through a severe test, but the government is introducing relevant support policies to help tourism companies weather the crisis, Johnson said, calling on everyone to be confident and play a part in the battle against the virus epidemic.
Hainan is one of the most popular destinations for Cambodian students to study overseas. During this winter vacation, six Cambodian students from Hainan College of Foreign Studies chose to stay. The school has taken various measures to protect those who are living on campus, such as spreading information on epidemic prevention, taking their body temperature daily, distributing protective supplies, and helping them to buy daily necessities.
Max from Belarus, whose Chinese name is Kang Jinsheng, spoke highly of the convenient and timely government services. He is glad to see that the up-to-date services are offered daily by the Hainan Provincial Foreign Affairs Office and the Haikou Foreign Affairs Office on their WeChat accounts.
With the support of the Hainan Provincial Council for the Promotion of International Trade, many foreigners have received masks by Hainan associations and everyone was touched, he added.
