Several embassies issued important reminders!

When the winter vacation mode is started, the safety of international students should be paid attention:

Recently, a number of Chinese embassies and consulates abroad have issued a series of safety reminders for overseas Chinese students, ranging from epidemic protection to daily life.

The Chinese Embassy in Portugal, the Chinese Consulate General in New York, etc. stressed that the current high season of integrity influenza and chickenpox in many overseas countries, coupled with the threat of new crown variants, scientific epidemic prevention must not be relaxed.

In addition, there have been frequent telecom fraud cases against overseas students recently. Fraudsters often pretend to be public management service departments and use number change tools to display the official numbers of relevant units to cheat. The embassies and consulates remind that all requests for personal information in the name of customs, immigration, embassies and consulates, public security organs, post offices, etc., especially for remittance and transfer, are fraudulent!

In addition, when connecting these calls, be careful not to disclose any personal information.

During the winter vacation, if there are students who want to travel and play, the embassy and consulate suggest that many people travel together and do not travel far, especially pay attention to the different rules of accommodation and driving in different regions.

During the festive season, the embassy and consulate also specifically mentioned the mentality and psychological safety of overseas students, reminding students to pay attention to adjusting their psychological state, communicate with their parents frequently, and properly relieve the pressure.

The number of robberies and thefts increased at the end of the year, and overseas Chinese should be cautious when traveling:

Christmas and New Year are approaching, and public security cases such as robbery and theft in many overseas countries have also entered a period of high incidence. Recently, the Chinese Embassy in Ireland, the Embassy in Ghana, and the Consulate General in Belfast have all received help from Chinese citizens, claiming that their property has been stolen and their personal safety has been violated.

The embassy and consulate reminded that, first of all, we must pay attention to local social news, especially public security news, understand the public security situation around life and work, pay attention to personal and property safety, properly keep personal property and identity documents, and enhance self-safety awareness.

In addition, overseas Chinese should avoid carrying or storing large amounts of cash in their places of residence when they go out and at home, and try to use bank cards when shopping. When going to the bank to withdraw money or handle other business, try to go there during the day when there are many people.

The Chinese Embassy in Ghana specifically mentioned that some Chinese citizens were robbed at gunpoint by armed robbers after withdrawing large amounts of cash from banks and suffered heavy property losses. The embassy reminded that it is important to be vigilant, strengthen security protection, and upgrade security measures for office premises and residences.

As the peak consumption season is approaching, the production safety of overseas Chinese businessmen and enterprises is very important:

With the arrival of holidays at the end of the year, the annual peak consumption season has officially opened. For overseas Chinese businessmen and overseas Chinese enterprises, at this time, we should attach great importance to safe production and operation and actively prevent safety risks.

The Chinese Embassy in South Africa announced that recently, a fire broke out in a Chinese shopping mall in South Africa, causing serious property losses. The lesson is very profound.

The embassy stressed that overseas Chinese businessmen and enterprises must strengthen their safety awareness, carry out self-examination, and eliminate potential safety hazards in a timely manner. In particular, when problems are found in fire-fighting facilities, production facilities and security facilities, they should be rectified in a timely manner.

For example, operators of supermarkets and restaurants should clean up their warehouses in time, prepare fire-fighting supplies, and regularly repair and replace old wires to avoid fires.

During the holidays, qualified factories, enterprises and shops should be staffed on duty, or monitored by video. In case of emergency, they should respond quickly.

In addition, it is necessary to firmly establish the awareness of the "first responsible person" for their own safety, strictly abide by local and industry laws and regulations, and carry out production and business activities in compliance with laws and regulations.

Overseas Chinese businessmen and enterprises should strengthen ties with local police, labor, immigration and industry associations, take the initiative to enhance their understanding of policies and regulations in relevant fields, and respect local laws and customs.
