Xiamen Animal Protection Association was established by Mr Xiao Bing in January 2007. 

Mr Xiao Bing, a animal lover, has been dedicating himself to save animals since 2007 and by his own choise, receiving zero salary for the past 2 years.  He gave up a job with 50000RMB, and threw himself into non-profit animal protection work. In China, this gentleman is considered a legend in the animal protection and living community for his selflessness and dedication to the animal cause.

In Xiamen, Mr. Xiao Bing is as very well known to all animal people since he has rescued and protected countless abused, stray and abandoned cats and dogs. He has become one of the main leaders of animal protection in China. 

With a MAB Masters degree, he used to be a teacher and a music producer.   His family is not rich, but his decision was supported by his wife and family.   He has a simple life.  He uses glue to repair his sneakers, and his clothes have been worn for more than ten years.  All of his savings go towards the poor abused cats and dogs, and his whole family have been saving money for the animals.  

In 2007, he received an award for China Animal Protection and animal benefits annual dedicating award.   Not long ago in this year, he and his peers wrote and edited texts books for the animal protection, that have been introduced into the primary and secondary schools curriculum in Xiamen, for the first time in China.
Over ten years Mr Xiao Bing has researched and written books and articles to protect the animals. He has published many books and articles such as “Love and Protect the Pets around Us” and “How should we view dogs.”

One of his articles “The Education of Animal Benefit and Respect for Animal Lives: Raising the respect for Xiamen’s civilization” got him a top award from the Xiamen City Council. 

He has organized many animal protection educational activities for the school kids, university students and people in living areas.  There were three Animal Protection Summer Camps for the school kids in summer holiday 2009 and an event for The World Animal Day in Xiamen University as well.  Mr Xiao Bing’s warm heart and spirit touches the people around him.

Mr Wu, a member of parliament for the Xiamen City Council has known Xiao Bing for four to five years, and has said that Xiao Bing has gone from having a basic concern of pets to the animal protection education, and has gone from being the single protector of animals to bring the Xiamen Animal Protection Assn’s director.  Xiao Bing has gone through step by step to have the concerns for animals, concerns for the community and concerns for the environment united together.   Each and every time when organizing an animal protection event he shows vast amounts of love, energy and compassion.  Because of his hard work, he has spread the awareness for animal protections all over the community.

Ms Cheng, a principal of a school said that when getting in contact with him, she not only learned a lot of knowledge for animal protection, but she also felt the importance of animal protection education.   Xiao Bing has shown us how hard it is to dedicate so much into animal protection work.

~~~ Animal Protection Summer Camps:

In July 6-8th 2009, three day long summer camp was held in a primary school in Xiamen, set up to educate primary and secondary school children about animal protection.  It was organized by the Xiamen Education Bureau and Xiamen Animal Protection Association.  It was co-organized by Animals Asian, the Hong Kong Animal Protection Association and also by several schools in Xiamen.  Three of these camps were held over the summer holidays last year. The camps were supported by the Xiamen Government, Educational Bureaus of Xiamen and also by several districts.

There were many activities in the Summer Camp both in and outdoors, such as seminars and movies on how to treat animals fairly, on pets’ and peoples’ relationships, and also English lessons about animals, and performances by dogs.  The children were all very interested in the programs and understood more about the meaning of animal protection, the responsibility of taking care of animals, and the respect of animals.

~~~Animal Protection Education Texts Books:

For the first time ever in China, animal protection texts books (one for primary, one for secondary schools) were written by several experience teachers from various schools in Xiamen.  They were edited by Mr Xiao Bing, the Director of XMAPA.  Starting from April 2010, the Animal Protection Education Texts Books have been included in fourteen primary and secondary school’s curriculum in the city of Xiamen.

There are ten chapters in each of the textbooks, and are designed for being used for one school year.  Since this text is mostly teaching about animals and the animal protection, it can be also used for biology texts and the reading book for life education as well.

There is research and discussion once per school term, to upgrade the level of the teachers.
