GUANGZHOU - Chen Wenchang remembers her days volunteering at the 2010 Asian Games as hard work, but fun.
A student at Guangdong University of Foreign Studies, she stood almost 10 hours a day in a subway station, helping to direct Chinese and foreign visitors to the event, which was held in Guangzhou in November.
"I felt very tired, but it is a good memory," the 21-year-old said. "Helping others has given me a lot of inspiration for my studies. It is in giving that we receive."
