Second-time lucky, his vision and passion for Africa saw Chu return to Namibia in 2018 to join the medical team at Katutura Hospital's Acupuncture Department.
"I am very happy to be back in Namibia to serve Namibians," he said.
Chu's passion for Africa has also been infectious to his family, with his wife, Cai Xiaoying, also serving as a medical team nurse in Afrca.
Meanwhile, the 51-year old's return catapulted his enthusiasm for Chinese medicine's role in global health and development.
"Many people asked me why I came to aid again. I do it not only for my country but for my responsibility to the people -- a love for Africa. This is from the heart. If asked to return next time, I will come again," he said.
According to Chu, the team has since worked strategically to boost Namibia's availability to traditional Chinese medicine and healthcare. These include promoting Chinese methods of acupuncture, and moxibustion to enhance understanding among the domestic health fraternity, as well as upholding standards enforcement.
Moreover, Chu's leadership and management have fostered an organizational culture of inclusivity at the acupuncture department. Treatment is provided to all patients on a non-discriminatory basis, regardless of their health or societal status, to evoke change.
"This is done for the respect of patients, make communication easy, and so that the patient feels close. We aim to give hope for the future," he added.
