Themed on forging deep friendship through cultural exchanges and building green power grid through joint efforts, the activity aims to enhance communication and friendship between the both sides in order to make concerted efforts to maintain stable power supply in both regions.

The event kicked off at 9:30 in the morning. CEM’s representatives gathered at Macao’s Border Gate and then took buses to the employees activity center of Zhuhai Power Supply Bureau, which is located in Zhuhai’s Xiangzhou district.

Last December, a delegation of 20 people led by Wan Jusheng and Iun Iok Meng, went to the Shimen National Forest Park in Guangdong’s Conghua city for photography activities. Seventy excellent photos were picked out afterwards. They will be exhibited at Zhuhai first, and will be exhibited in Macao between March 1 and 10.

Iun Iok Meng said in the speech that cycling tour held last year marked the long-term cooperation and deep friendship between the power enterprises in Macao and Zhuhai. This year’s photography exhibition and friendly matches of ball games can promote sports activities taking place between the two enterprises as well as enhancing communications and friendship between the employees. Therefore, CEM will continue to invite Zhuhai Power Supply Bureau for activities in March.
