On September 25, the Chinese Consulate General in Belfast, in collaboration with Queen’s University Belfast (QUB) and the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI), organized a Consular Protection on Campus event. Approximately 80 overseas Chinese students and visiting scholars from QUB participated.

Consul General Li emphasized that the Consulate General consistently upholds the principle of “diplomacy for the people” and strives to provide necessary consular protection and assistance to Chinese citizens including students within the consular district. He encouraged the students to heighten their safety awareness, cherish their study-abroad opportunities, and work hard to serve their country upon completing their studies.

The consular officer introduced policies regarding consular protection and documents, highlighted key points for preventing cyber scam with real-life cases, screened an anti-fraud promotional video, and addressed questions from students on-site.

The representative from QUB outlined the safety support and mental health services available to international students. Two police officers briefed common local safety issues and preventive measures, engaging in an enthusiastic interactive session with the students.

The students expressed their gratitude for the care and concern from the motherland, affirming that they would strengthen their safety awareness and risk prevention measures, and strive to complete their studies successfully to serve the country.
