Good morning, I am writing from Namibia in Africa. I have spent a month at the Jilin University in 2004. My impressions about the beautiful city of Changchun and its people have changed my view about China. Since 2004, I am working tirelessly to to help my people understand China in a positive light. Therefore, I have since enrolled for MPhil in Chinese studies with the University of Wales, Trinity Saint David in the UK and have set up a private research centre which consist of Library, Museum and China-Namibia Club all tailored to promote Chinese culture and help Chinese nationals in Namibia to learn more about African cultures. I am writing to request an opportunity for a collaboration to set-up a museum in Namibia to promote China-African friendship and goodwill. I would like to have contact details of the relevant person, perhaps the Director of the Jilin Museum, to discuss my project in detail.

Xie-xie.
