Date:2008.02.14 Publisher:
The rail and road transport was under huge pressure during the Spring Festival and a lot of passengers, especially migrant workers, couldn’t go home owing to continual rainy and snowy weather in most regions of China. Actively responding to the call of the government, our Group donated 2000 cotton-padded clothes to warm migrant workers held up in the station and Xu Jiayin, Chairman of the Group, even made an call that "Evergrande was home of farm workers". During the Spring Festival period, each department organized a series of activities at the cost of their annual leave for family reunion under the instruction of the board of directors of the Group to arrange wonderful programs for migrant workers staying at Evergrande construction site in Guangzhou to celebrate the lunar New Year.
On the lunar New Year’s eve, a festival allowance of 500 yuan was provided to arrange a "reunion dinner"
The greatest number of migrant workers had this dinner and celebrated this festival on the construction site of Evergrande Royal Scenic Peninsula, where the lively scene in the dinning hall contrasted the outdoor cold weather distinctly. A Spring Festival couplet was stuck to the gate of the dinning hall which was full of hanged Chinese knots, and migrant workers were at table, enjoying a sumptuous meal, drinking beer and watching the Spring Festival Party with hearty laugh now and then, so the construction site was permeated with a strong festival atmosphere.
"Though we cannot go home this year, Evergrande has given any of us 500 yuan and arranged for fellow workers to get together to eat the hogmanay dinner, so we feel much satisfied ", joyously said Xiao Wang who comes from Hunan Province while eating steaming hot dumpling. Xiao Wang said that all roads and railways to Hunan were blockaded because of serious rainy and snowy weather, so he returned to the construction site to celebrate the lunar New Year under the call of Evergrande after expecting the train in the railway station for days hopelessly, and that he felt very warm for this "entertainment” of Evergrande.
Over thousands of migrant workers celebrated this festival on the construction site of the Group this time, thus the amount of festival allowances provided was over 2 million yuan. Besides Royal Scenic Peninsula, our Group provided farm workers of tens of construction units of five construction sites such as Qingxin, Zengcheng, Century Garden and Splendor New City Project Sites and arranged a hogmanay dinner for them on the lunar New Year’s eve.

The programs were so rich and colorful with songs, dance, cross-talk and game that migrant workers enjoyed a distinctive Spring Festival.

Any victorious migrant worker of each game could get a lottery ticket worth ten yuan which could be exchanged with a gift of equal value on the basis of more chances for more participation.
