Welcome to the Dunedin Branch of the New Zealand China Friendship Society.
This branch has recently come out of recess and is currently the most southerly in New Zealand.
The branch wishes to support and associate with all other local Chinese orientated groups and will run a programme aimed at coordinating and facilitating greater understanding with Chinese culture and language. We believe mutual benefit is the key to successful integration or understanding. We have hosted Chinese officials when they visited recently and were presented with Shanghai Expo Medallions as a gesture of goodwill for our successful relaunch.
We support the Dunedin City Council and Dunedin Shanghai Association in our sister city relationship with Shanghai.
We welcome Otago University members support.
We applaud those sharing membership with Otago Southland Chinese Society.
We want to ensure the Dunedin Chinese Garden is well established.
We encourage increased learning of Chinese in schools.
