On 21 November, USJ’s OSAA organised a visit with 16 students and staff members to the Cheong Kun Pain Reliever Oil Chinese Medicine Factory. The aim of the activity was to enhance students’ understanding of the local enterprise’s environment, facilities and operations.



The Office for Student and Alumni Affairs (OSAA) of the University of Saint Joseph (USJ) arranged a visit to a local enterprise on 21 November, where students and staff members explored the internal equipment of the pharmaceutical factory and observed the production processes of the products. The event was designed to deepen participants’ understanding of the local enterprise’s environment, facilities and operations. Through this visit, participants expanded their knowledge and explored potential career paths.

The event received generous support from the Macao Foundation. A group of 16 from the university visited the Cheong Kun Pain Reliever Oil Chinese Medicine Factory and were warmly welcomed by Mr. Cheong Lok Kei, Technical Director and the third-generation successor of the factory, along with his team. During the visit, the staff meticulously explained the establishment and development of the Pain Reliever Oil to each USJ student. The students then delved into the factory to observe the operations of the professional production line. Detailed product introductions not only enhanced participants’ understanding of the production process but also deepened their knowledge and awareness of the Chinese medicine industry.

To provide students with a better understanding of the local enterprise’s development in Macau and its future prospects, the factory team conducted an informative session during the visit. During the session, Bonnie Sin, a second-year Doctoral student in History from the Faculty of Arts and Humanities, shared her insights and experiences as a user, expressing her satisfaction with the university’s initiative to organize student visits to local enterprises. Furthermore, Romelyn Malazarte Rojas, a year-one student from the Philippines, raised inquiries regarding the current promotion status of local Chinese medicine products.
