None of the 40,000 foreigners who live and work in Jiangsu province have been infected with the novel coronavirus since it broke out in January, according to the province's top leaders.

To provide timely information on the coronavirus to foreigners, the province releases information on its mainstream media every day in three foreign languages — English, Japanese and Korean. Some cities' governments also give prevention suggestions on social media.

Many foreigners have worked as volunteers to help local communities contain the spread of the virus.

Lou Qinjian, Party secretary of the province, said Jiangsu has always provided good service to foreign-invested companies, which have served as an important driver of the province’s economic development.

A letter addressed to foreign entrepreneurs on Monday from Lou and Wu Zhenglong, the provincial governor, said the province has sufficient medical resources and prevention measures in place to protect foreigners living there.

It also said the province will provide better services to help companies overcome any difficulties in resuming production and developing further.
