At the homes of centenarians Yan Zhuanglong and Yu Shuai in Mandajiu Village, Gasa Town, Jinghong, it was learned that despite being 101 years old this year, the elderly couple remain fully self-sufficient. Every morning, they take a leisurely stroll around the village, enjoy a full bowl of rice at each meal, and maintain excellent spirits. They are even able to converse in Mandarin with visiting guests, much to the amazement of Liu Tianwei and his wife, who had come to offer their condolences. Chairman Liu Tianwei, warmly grasping the hands of the centenarians, said with deep emotion: “Harmony at home brings prosperity in all things. We wish you both abundant blessings and long life, and a joyful golden age.”

He stated: “Respecting and caring for the elderly is a shared responsibility of the entire society. Our company will further promote the traditional virtues of respecting, honoring, and loving the elderly, ensuring that they are well cared for and have reliable support in their later years.” He also extended his best wishes for family happiness and a brighter, more prosperous future.

 

“Hello, Auntie! How are you doing? The Lantern Festival is just around the corner, so I’ve come to wish you a happy Little New Year in advance.” At the doorstep of Zhong Zhuqing, a veteran Party member facing financial hardship at Jinghong Farm, Chairman Liu Tianwei warmly shook the elderly woman’s hand and engaged her in heartfelt conversation, inquiring about her daily life and health, and urging her to take good care of herself and enjoy her golden years.
