    On May 12, at 14:28pm, 8.0 grade earthquake hit Wenchuan county,  Sichuan province, which affected many areas and caused heavy casualties.  Buildings swayed with the tremor, people lost their families and homes. To confront the disaster in the region, Simpson immediately activated the emergency response mechanism within the company, started with employee family’s self-support rescue process and participate in the earthquake relief work in the community.

At 16:00 on May 12, 2008: All the telecommunications were down and the transportation network were paralyzed in Chengdu soon after the earthquake. Being a partner with Telecom Operator for the emergency power system supply, Simpson quickly realized the urgency for the emergency power needs for the system.  Through quick arrangement, we dispatched the first group of technicians to go thru all generator sites in Chengdu area to inspect site conditions and make sure the operations were normal.  

At 3:00am on May 13, 2008: after quick assessment for the affected telecom area, Simpson activated the emergency response mechanism, sending the employees whose family were in the affected area back home for visit and help out the rescue, arranging non affected employees on 24-hour standby duty.  The first batch of Simpson gasoline generators and accessories such as coolant oil, power cable and power bars were delivered to the Wenchuan area, coordinated with Sichuan Mobile Telecom.

At 6:00am on May 13 2008:  We sent out the second batch of technicians to Sichuan Mobile Mianyang branch to check on their units and repair damaged units on site.

At 9:00am on May 13 2008: We sent out two car loads of rescue goods like steamed buns, bottled water, instant noodles and biscuits etc.  to the hardest hit area, Mianzhu county, Deyang.

At 18:00 on May 13, 2008: Two technicians were sent out to Sichuan Mobile Deyang branch for generator repairing and maintenance at the base station.

At 21:00 on May 13,2008: All employees at Simpson got involved in arranging the second batch of supplies, such as generator sets, power cable and oil lamps, which were going to be sent to the affected area thru Sichuan Mobile.

From May 14 to May 20, 2008:  2200 sets of generators and more than 17000 meters of power cable were delivered to the front line of rescue troop.   We are honored and proud of what we did in organizing the emergency supplies to the affected area. We played an important role in the relief work of getting through the communications blackout in the disaster areas.
