News: Giant pandas get rousing welcome at Singapore Zoo
It was heartwarming to have read this article from Channelnewsasia.com
Giant pandas Kai Kai & Jia Jia arrive in Singapore
SINGAPORE: Singapore welcomed two new residents, giant pandas Kai Kai and Jia Jia from Chengdu, China on Thursday morning.
The pandas are in Singapore on a 10-year loan from the Chinese government to mark two decades of strong ties between China and Singapore.
Kai Kai and Jia Jia boarded a Singapore Airlines Boeing 747 cargo freighter at 3.45am on Thursday morning.
They arrived at Singapore Changi Airport about four and a half hours later, at 8.20am along with a team of five keepers and vets from both China and Singapore who were also on board to ensure the pandas' well-being.
"Singapore Airlines is pleased to have transported Kai Kai and Jia Jia to Singapore," said the CEO of Singapore Airlines, Mr Goh Choon Phong.
"We warmly welcome them to their new home at the River Safari and are privileged to be playing our part in this significant conservation initiative."
It was the pandas' first time away from home, and extra care was taken to minimise stress for the animals.
The departure and arrival times were scheduled to reduce climate-related discomfort for the pandas.
The cabin temperature was kept between 18 to 22 degrees celsius, consistent to their native habitat in Sichuan, China.
Fruits, water and about 90kg of bamboo were carried on board for the pandas' meals.
Wildlife Reserves Singapore also brought along bamboo from Guangzhou, in case the pandas need time to adjust to the taste of locally-grown bamboo.
The pandas travelled in custom-made crates which offer ample ventilation and space to move about.

At palBear (Singapore), our Baby Panda symbolizes peace and love.
To us, a war is more than a cost, for it deprives one of the fundamental right to live.
A societal conflict destroys social harmony.
A quarrel with your loved ones deprives you of a chance to show care and concern.
When you are not at peace within, you lose happiness, and more importantly your very ownself.
It is simply a willingness to embrace differences and better understand one another that will manifest peace and love.
palBear will constantly remind you of these values!
