China's first lady, Peng Liyuan, was in Beidaihe, Hebei province, on
Friday, to attend the opening ceremony of a summer camp for AIDS
orphans, the website of the National Health and Family Planning
Commission (NHFPC) said.
The camp, organized by the Chinese Association of STD and AIDS
Prevention and Control and the Chinese Health Education Center, will
last five days. More than 50 AIDS orphans from six provinces and
regions participated in the camp. During their stay, in addition to
sightseeing trips, the children will receive psychological training to
help them cope with the challenges they will face in life.
At the ceremony, Peng, in her role as a World Health Organization
ambassador in the fight against HIV/AIDS, raised a white sail with the
children, to symbolize that the children should be courageous to
overcome the difficulties in their lives. The spouses of top Chinese
leaders usually shy away from public appearances.
