Chinanews, Beijing, May 10 – Professor Daniel Chee Tsui, academician of US National Academy of Sciences and foreign academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences, solemnly signed, in Princeton University, USA, his own name in both Chinese and English in the agreement regarding donation for constructing a Hope School in his hometown in China. This is the first time for a Nobel Prize winner to donate toward a Hope School in China.

 

Professor Daniel Chee Tsui was born in February, 1939, in Fanzhuang Village, Baofeng County, Henan Province. In 1951, he went to study in a middle school in Hong Kong. In 1957, he was admitted to the American university. After graduation, he became a citizen of the United States. He returned to his homeland four times for academic exchange but failed to visit his ancestral home due to the pressure of time. In order to repay the graciousness and the deep affection shown him by hometown elders and to support hometown education, Daniel Chee Tsui decided1 to contribute 350,000 yuan to establish a Hope Primary School in Fanzhuang Village, together with a piano and some computers for the School. Professor Daniel Chee Tsui's decision was warmly welcomed by the Baofeng County government. They decided to set aside more than 8,500 square meters of land in Fanzhuang to establish a central elementary school, which will be named "Daniel Chee Tsui Hope School", with the professor’s donated 350,000 yuan. The main building of this school will have a capacity of 200 pupils.

 

A person concerned disclosed that construction of the "Daniel Chee Tsui Hope School" will begin soon after the week-long May Day holiday and will be put into use in autumn this year.
