Foreign anchors share Wenzhou with the world
Aside from being one of the most famous hometowns of overseas Chinese, Wenzhou, a port city in East China's Zhejiang province, has also gained popularity among expats in recent years as a group of foreign anchors have been actively promoting the city to the world.
They are from all walks of life, but they share one thing in common – their sense of belonging to Wenzhou and their aspiration to share the city to the world.
The foreign anchor team in Wenzhou, since its initiation in 2018, has accepted over 80 members from more than 20 countries and regions such as the United Kingdom, Spain and South Africa.
Hosany Sumayyah, a Mauritian surgeon who has been living in China for about a decade and can speak fluent Chinese, is one of the foreign anchors.
Now working at the Panhealth Medical Center in Wenzhou, Sumayyah put "Whatever you think of China, first see what the country looks like" as her motto and has been dedicated to sharing her understanding of China's epidemic prevention and control measures via a doctor's perspectives since the COVID-19 outbreak in2020.
Her video peaked at over 250,000 views. Her voluntary service with her fiance, Pakistani orthopedist Abdul Zahir Hamad, also won wide praise from home and abroad as the couple volunteered at the city's south-most highway exit checkpoint, checking the identities and measuring the body temperatures of travelers when the COVID-19 first broke out in the city.
