Shandong province is the home of three of the most celebrated personalities in Chinese history, Confucius, Mencius (the two leading figures of Confucianism, as well as Sun Zi, the best known military strategist. Modern Shandong is the richest province in Northern China, the second richest in the Nation after Guangdong.
Since its inception the Shandong Association has good relationship with Chung Wah Association. She was one of the organisations which joined Chung Wah to celebrate the 60th anniversary of founding of modern China last year.
