[Corporate Philanthropy in China and Beyond]( "The book is a must-read for both researchers in the field of business ethics as well as the seasoned and the potential philanthropists, no matter the scale that they endeavor to undertake. Eliminating poverty, unfairness, injustice, and prejudice is humanity's ultimate sustainable development goal. Philanthropy comes from reconciliation, as Pope Francis says loudly on the 2024 World Day of the Poor: 'spread the wealth of charity, share our bread and multiply love'. This book tells us how to do so." Carlos Noronha Associate Professor, University of Macau (UM) and Founder, Macau Institute for Corporate Social Responsibility in Greater China (MICSRGC) [Lion and Dragon Dance in Singapore]( "The book is a comprehensive guide for lion and dragon dance in the context of Singapore and how it has become an integral part of the national heritage. The author has collected the relevant information from various sources that encompasses every aspect of the dances, such as its cultural origins and several symbolisms, while showcasing the hard work, creativity, and dedication of the dancers, and presented it in a lucid manner. This not only makes the book an ideal tribute to the dances while providing clarity on how it can maintain continuity in the future, but it also makes vital information accessible to readers of all ages."

Professor Jolly also has a lot of experience working with Chinese people, and he is able to provide a unique perspective on the topic. I believe that this book is a valuable resource for anyone who is interested in learning more about the Chinese financial system."
