From 13 May 2008, Singaporean people and the Chinese students and workers in Singapore have moved enthusiastically to make donations of funds for the people in the earthquake-stricken areas in Sichuan, China through the relief account opened by the Chinese Embassy and on-spot donation in the Embassy. Up to 18 May, the Embassy has received S$ 3.7 million (about RMB 18.9 million), and about 10,000 person-times have come to the Embassy for donation.
