Although I work at Tohoku University, Japan, I am Chinese. I learned from the news that Pakistan gave China the most help after the outbreak of novel coronavirus in China. You donated all the masks in Pakistan to us, which moved me deeply. I would like to express the greatest gratitude to Pakistan. Therefore, I am not willing to accept the money. Please donate the money to the people who need it, if possible.
