Tsunami relief donation welcomed via Internet (Xinhua) Updated: 2005-01-12 11:09 China Charity Federation
Tuesday started to receive donations through its official website after an
increasing demand from donators across the country.
In the past few days, thousands of Chinese people donated to the tsunami
victims through the post offices and banks. Some said they would like to give
via the Internet, according to the federation.
After emergency technical upgrade and tests, the website can receive
donations from the electronic bank cards of Industrial and Commercial Bank of
China, China Construction Bank and China Merchants Bank.
The three banks have promised to erase the transfer fee for the donation and
the donators can directly check the transfer situation of their donation on the
website, said the federation.
China Charity Federation and its branches at various levels have received
98.26 million yuan (11.88 million US dollars) and the total donation to the
tsunami-hit countries in the Chinese mainland have exceeded 150 million yuan
(18.11 million US dollars) by 4 p.m. Monday, according to the special office
coordinating non- governmental donations to the disaster-hit countries under the
Ministry of Civil Affairs.
