Heart-warming donation in the case of serious illness
Ahsan is a Laotian driver of the Operation and Maintenance Department of Nam Ou
River Level-5 Hydropower Station of SINOHYDRO No. 10 Bureau. In early 2017, his wife
suffered from facial paralysis. They went to many local hospitals but the effect was very
limited, and the doctor suggested that his wife seek treatment in the Chinese hospital.
When the company heard about this, it decided to give a hand to this family. A donation
proposal was made to raise money for the subsequent treatment for Ahsan's wife. More
than 12 million Kips (local currency) was raised within only one day.
"I have been working in the level-5 Hydropower Station and have received
much help from the station. Today's donation enhanced my understanding of
PowerChina Overseas Investment Co., Ltd. Moving forward, I will work harder to
make more money for my wife's treatment, and to make my best contribution to
the hydropower career of PowerChina Overseas Investment Co., Ltd."
-Ahsan, Employee of Nam Ou River Level-5 Hydropower Station

lot. We also appreciate the fantastic
lectures delivered by the experts,
which is of great help to our life and
work."

A donation for Ahsan's wife is
more than 12 million Kips
PowerChina upholds the cultural concept of
"Safety First", and continuously organizes
safe production training in Laos. As there
is language barrier between Chinese and
Laotian employees, the company encourages
the employees of the project department to
study the Lao language so as to enhance
safety communication. The company persists
in pre-job safety orientation, on-the-job
safety monitor and after-job safety review,
establishes mechanisms like "apprenticeship"
and "divided responsibility for Laotian
employees", and strengthens and implements
the management model of “transfer, help and
guidance" in safe production.
The company requires that Laotian
employees who work in the project must
receive the site-entry safety training and
education, understand and get familiar with
the safety management system and safety
management culture of Chinese companies,
fully understand the unsafe factors they may
encounter at work and relevant identification
methods and countermeasures, gradually
change their normal awareness, and
comprehensively increase their safety awareness. They will be put on the job after they pass the appraisal.
In order for Laotian employees to understand in a visual way the safe and civilized construction standardization
management requirements of Chinese enterprises, the company has built a safe and civilized construction
standardization demonstration area in the construction site, demonstrating things like how operators should
wear work protection device, and how steel wire rope should be used; in the centralized operation area, a safety
communication stage and an accident warning picture display area are set up; and in the dangerous positions
of all operation areas, cartoon version warning and warning signs are placed to convert the abstract words into
objects and pictures easy for Laotian employees to understand. All these have achieved good results.
In September 2017, Nam Ou River Level-7 Hydropower Station Project
Department organized safety training for 9 Laotian employees.
