Li Yongbo Celebrates Second Term as “China Safe Kids Walk This Way” Ambassador

GUANGZHOU, Nov. 26, 2007 – Today, FedEx Express (FedEx), a subsidiary of FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX) and the world’s largest express transportation company, and the National Badminton Team joined with Safe Kids Worldwide to promote the Safe Kids Walk This Way program at Xingang Road Primary School in Guangzhou.

Li Yongbo, head coach of the nation’s badminton team, was named “China Safe Kids Walk This Way Ambassador” for a second term. More than 200 primary school students, 25 FedEx volunteers and four members of China ’s badminton team joined officials from the Education Bureau of Guangzhou and the Department of Transport Police in the day’s festivities.

National badminton stars Xie Xingfang, Bao Chunlai, Gao Jun, and Cai Yun echoed FedEx and Safe Kids calls for further improvements of road safety and other preventative measures to ensure safer school zones.

“With the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games imminent, global attention will turn to China , and it is imperative that we take this opportunity to promote road safety,” Li said. “As a ‘China Safe Kids Walk This Way Ambassador’, I will make full use of every chance to deliver the message of child pedestrian safety. Together, we can make a difference and protect China ’s most precious resource – our children.”

This August, the local Guangzhou government announced that the number of Guangzhou ’s in-use vehicles reached 1 million and that the number of vehicles is increasing at a rate of 150,000 per year. With more vehicles on the road, careful and conscientious driving and walking is increasingly critical.

According to a recent report released by Safe Kids Worldwide, road accidents have become the second-largest killer of children aged 15 and under in China . An average of more than 30,000 children are injured or killed in traffic accidents every year. Of these, nearly 44 percent are child pedestrians, with careless road crossing as the leading cause of injury. Consequently, enhancing child pedestrian safety education and raising awareness of road safety is urgent.

At the event, Safe Kids and FedEx donated Walk This Way road safety curriculum to the school. Eddy Chan, senior vice president, FedEx China and FedEx employee volunteers accompanied Li and his team to play educational road safety games with the students and teach them basic pedestrian precautions and road safety skills.

“In the past year, FedEx, Mr. Li and the National Badminton Team have worked together to promote the Safe Kids program in China with much success,” said Chan, who is honorary vice president of the China National Badminton Association. “Thanks to Mr. Li’s contributions and our long-term partner Safe Kids, we are introducing the program to Guangzhou this year. By sharing this critical message, we aim to continue to positively impact our children’s safety and the community at large in advance of the 2008 Olympic Games.”

“Simply put, Walk This Way is an ongoing, long-term program of Safe Kids Worldwide, designed to promote child pedestrian safety. It not only benefits parents and children, but also improves the local walking environment for everyone. With the help of our friends at FedEx and the National Badminton Team, we will bring this program to cities across China in order to keep our children safe from needless harm,” said Monica Cui, director, Safe Kids China.
