Sun Yali took the participants on a digital tour of the Museum of Dr Sun Yat-sen in Zhongshan.


This activity was held to commemorate the 110th anniversary of the Xinhai Revolution and the 155th anniversary of Dr Sun Yat-sen's birth. "Our two families met 10 years ago at the 100th anniversary of the Xinhai Revolution activities in China. This online reunion brings us great joy and has profound meaning. It is not only about the friendship between our two families, but also about the friendship between the people of the two countries," Sun Yali said.
