Since the COVID-19 outbreak, Bangladeshis have been extending love and support to the people in Wuhan and all around China, which shows the deep friendship between the two peoples.

Due to the unusual circumstances, many Bangladeshi students have stayed in China, including 240 currently in Wuhan, the center of the novel coronavirus battle. On Feb 26, a condolence letter was issued by Li Jiming, Chinese ambassador to Bangladesh, expressing his greetings to the students and confidence that the challenge will be overcome.

The post, widely circulated online, has received a warm response and nearly 2,000 likes and comments. Netizens commended the strong sense of responsibility shown by the embassy and the Chinese government.

"Never seen such [a] caring message from the top most authority in order to make students feel safe wherever they are," said Asif H Rohed on Facebook. "We are always with China. [A t]rue friend doesn't leave her friend in a bad time," wrote Ariful Islam Adil.
