Thank you so much for providing Chinese sessions and Chinese education packs to us, we indeed need them, thank you for managing Chinese content for us Chinese community!

We would like to express our gratitude to MDNZ for sharing this vital information with us, and we sincerely appreciate the opportunity to organize the seminar with your support. We hope to have the chance to organize another educational session in the future.

I hope MDNZ can continue to promote this to the Chinese community.
