Hitachi celebrates a decade helping Lichuan school

Donated goods have made life and study more comfortable

Students at the Hitachi Hope Primary School in Lichuan county, Jiangxi province, welcomed some important visitors last month - a group of staff from the Japanese electronics giant that for the past decade has been supporting the school in various ways.

This time around, the staff brought with them eight more solar water heaters, as well as offered the children lessons in origami, the art of paper folding often associated with Japanese culture.
