In the eight years of its establishment, the Brunei Fuzhou Shiyyi Association has undergone a timeline of many challenges together and has also proudly grown through those phases with perseverance and ingenuity, said Jackson Ting Jack Hing, the association’s president for the third term.
He made these comments at the association’s 4th Executive Inauguration and Oath Taking ceremony for the newly elected 2021-2023 members at the association’s building in Jalan Pasir Berakas on Wednesday.
Ting said, “Year 2020 was a year impacted by the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic. The Fuzhou Shiyyi Association was at a standstill, which disrupted the pace of the association.
“But I believe the pandemic served as a golden opportunity to slow down, reconnect with our loved ones and be grateful.”

A similar ceremony was held for the association’s new Women and Youth League members.
