热心家乡公益

I hope to contribute to the economic and social development of my hometown, "Tan Bingli said of the changes in his hometown's development and his original intention to support the construction of his hometown over the years.

I heard that Julue Elementary School in Chikan Town, my hometown, is going to build a teaching building to provide a good school environment for children, but the funds are scarce. "Recalling the scene of donating funds to support the education industry in his hometown in his early years, Tan Bingli vividly remembers. At that time, he quickly returned to Kaiping from Hong Kong, inspected the school, and immediately decided to bear the cost of building new teaching buildings and purchasing teaching facilities. △Tan Bingli strongly supported the education industry in his hometown and awarded scholarships to students in Kaiping.

No matter how hard it is, we cannot afford to suffer children's education! "Tan Bingli deeply understands that society needs to progress and the country needs to be strong, and education is fundamental. We must ensure that children receive good education. In order to better assist students in achieving their academic dreams, he has donated to the construction of Tan Hongzuo Memorial Primary School and World Tan Middle School, donated funds for the operation of Kaiqiao Middle School, and for many years supported Kaiping City in awarding scholarships for outstanding students in the college entrance examination.

In addition to supporting education, Tan Bingli is always concerned about his hometown's environment, cultural construction and other public welfare undertakings, including donating money to build the Martyr Deng Yifei Cemetery in Hulong Village, Chikan Town, and donating money to the maintenance of the Kaiping Diaolou and Villages. At the inauguration ceremony and check handover ceremony of the Kaiping Love Charity Association in 2019, he pledged 1 million yuan to support the charity and public welfare projects in his hometown.

Tan Bingli has both a sense of hometown and a sense of family and country. His charitable deeds can be seen during special periods such as the fight against SARS, the Wenchuan earthquake, and the Ya'an earthquake.

Not seeking fame and fortune, pragmatic and dedicated, Tan Bingli's good deeds and righteous deeds have touched countless neighbors. After being awarded the honor of Eternal Honorary President of the Kaiping Charity Association, he expressed gratitude and hoped that more caring individuals would pay attention to and participate in charitable causes, and contribute more to social development.
Tan Bingli is not only enthusiastic about public welfare undertakings in his hometown, but also invests in his hometown to assist in its economic development.

To improve people's livelihoods, economic development is a prerequisite. "Tan Bingli confessed about his original intention of returning to his hometown to invest and build factories. In order to help his hometown accelerate development, he abandoned more favorable project settlement conditions in other cities. In 1998, Tan Bingli returned to his hometown Chikan Town and invested over 100 million yuan to establish the modern garden style enterprise Yaqi Industrial City, filling the gap in the advanced blow molding manufacturing industry in the Jiangmen region. Yaqi Industrial City covers an area of 8.67 hectares (130 acres), integrating the research and development and manufacturing of blow molding machinery, bottle molds, precision injection molds, and blow molding products.

Tan Bingli is skilled in managing enterprises with philosophical thinking, and Yaqi Industrial City has embarked on a rapid development path. In 2002, he invested another $5 million to expand production scale. Returning to hometown investment projects can not only drive employment through entrepreneurship, but also contribute to the development of our hometown. "Tan Bingli recalled that the total output value of Yaqi Industrial City at that time reached over 150 million yuan. In 2000, Yaqi Group in Hong Kong successfully developed a bottle blowing machine with fast translation technology, which produced over 6000 bottles per hour. The production efficiency was improved by more than 35% compared to traditional models, and the technology reached a leading level in Europe and America, winning the "Hong Kong Industrial Award".

When it comes to why Yaqi Industrial City was built in his hometown, Tan Bingli recalled that it was mainly based on several considerations: firstly, he hoped to bring back his accumulated years of experience and technology to his hometown and further develop the enterprise; Secondly, we hope to provide more employment opportunities for young people in our hometown; Thirdly, we hope to leverage the profits of enterprises to better promote the development of charitable and public welfare undertakings in our hometown.
Leave Kaiping and return to Kaiping. In the years since leaving his hometown, every tree and plant in his hometown, all kinds of things, and even a smile from his fellow villagers have often been recalled in Tan Bingli's mind. This is homesickness, right? I am very clear where I come from and where I am going. Our Hong Kong and Macao compatriots, especially those who have left Kaiping, all have the idea of returning to their roots after falling leaves, "he said.

With a sincere heart of patriotism and love for his hometown, Tan Bingli relies on his business network and communication channels in Hong Kong to actively contact business professionals from the two regions, assist in attracting investment, and facilitate many joint ventures and cooperation projects, which have been widely praised.
For many years, Tan Bingli has actively utilized his own advantages and served as a "friendly envoy" for Kaiping's external exchanges. He has worked tirelessly to tell the story of Kaiping and spread its voice, actively promoting exchanges and cooperation with relevant countries and regions in the fields of economy, technology, culture, education, and sister cities, and helping Kaiping's products and culture "go global".
