Macao youth inspired by revolutionary sites

Shanxi trip offers fresh perspective on wartime history and national spirit

Tan Wei-hang, a 37-year-old from Macao, embarked on his first journey to Shanxi province, where he gained a profound understanding of the history of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45).

"We must promote the spirit of the war and actively contribute to the construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area upon our return to Macao," Tan said.

Tan was a participant of the "Macao youth exploring the motherland" activity held in Shanxi from June 25 to 29. The event was held to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War.
