In Wuhan, capital of central China's Hubei Province, 120 people from all stratas of society gathered at the memorial for the Wuchang Uprising, which ignited the 1911 Revolution, to commemorate Sun's contributions to the country's unification and revival. Similar activities were also held in Shanghai City. A research institute specializing in Sun's life and achievements was opened to the public in Zhongshan City of Guangdong Province, Sun's native place. Sun Yeping, the eldest grandson of Sun Yat-sen, together with more than 100 overseas friends and relatives, attended the opening ceremony. |
