爱思英语编者按:青海玉树发生的强烈地震牵动着澳门民众的心,澳门社会各界连日来积极捐款,通过各种方式援助地震灾区,表达慰问。

The government of Macao Special Administrative Region (SAR) said on Tuesday that it will support the Macao Red Cross's effort to participate in the disaster relief operation and post-disaster reconstruction in China's quake-stricken Qinghai Province.
The SAR government has discussed the matter with the Macao Red Cross, which will submit a proposal concerning the reconstruction in the disaster zone to the government after consulting with the Red Cross Society of China, according to a press release issued by the SAR government.

The death toll has exceeded 2,000 after the Yushu County in Qinghai province, northwest China, was struck by the 7.1-magnitude earthquake on April 14, according to the earthquake relief headquarter in Yushu. 更多信息请访问:http://www.engbus.cn/

Meanwhile, the SAR government also announced that Macao will join the whole nation Wednesday in mourning the victims of the earthquake disaster. All public amusement activities will be suspended, including a grand ceremony of a new casino resort.

On Monday, the SAR government announced its decision to provide an amount of 100 million yuan (15 million U.S. dollars) as quake- relief fund for China's Qinghai province.

Aside from the government funds, the Macao Red Cross has already offered 300,000 patacas (37,500 dollars) as emergent quake- relief fund to the disaster area in Yushu, and dispatched personnel to Xining, capital of Qinghai province, to purchase relief supplies with a total cost of 250,000 patacas (31,250 dollars).

The organization has so far received a total donation of over 2. 75 million patacas (343,750 dollars) from local communities.
