Actor Wu Chun Announces Move To China With Family Carrying 23 Luggage Cases

There is an age-old belief that new lands bring new opportunities. It isn’t wrong. A new environment does have its own challenges and merits. However, it takes a lot of courage to uproot oneself and move to a new country entirely.

Brunei-born actor Wu Chun (吳尊, Goh Kiat Chun) stated earlier this year that he planned to move his family to China. Netizens were sceptical of his plans then. Yet, the actor recently announced that he had made the move with his family, surprising many.

On 21st March, the actor announced his move on Weibo. “23 cases of luggage, 450kg,” Wu Chun sighed. “Thanks to Nei Nei and Max (his children) for their assistance. Family unity is strength.” He stated that they had indeed made the move to China for a new life, new dreams and new experiences. “Looking forward to creating more good memories,” Wu Chun added.

The actor had apparently made the move for his kids. Previously, Wu Chun stated that he and his wife wanted their kids to study in Australia. However, after the epidemic, Wu Chun changed his mind. He felt it would be better for his children to study in China. Apparently, the actor hoped their kids could pick up Chinese easier and experience Chinese culture.

Some netizens praised his decisive action, welcoming him to China. Others were amazed by the number of suitcases he had. “You can buy everything in China,” one comment pointed out. “Why did you bring so much luggage?” The actor replied that his family wanted to be thrifty. Additionally, they wanted to be environmentally responsible.
