Fujian, a coastal province in east China, faces Kinmen and Matsu across the sea.

Compatriots in Fujian and Kinmen and Matsu share a kinship and should certainly help each other by joining hands in this fight against the epidemic, noted officials from the Fuzhou and Xiamen branches of the Red Cross Society of China.
