In a movie world, the year 2020 could have been written by Stephen King and produced by Quentin Tarantino, but we are not in a movie world and sadly, the casualties are very real and confronting. 

It is with deep regret that we announce the cancellation of the CHTNetwork Gala Dinner this year due to pandemic restrictions. However, it has never been more important for us to fulfil our Corporate Social Responsibility during these trying times. 

Last year we raised more than $10K for Dementia Australia. This year we are raising funds for victims who are affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. In collaboration with the Consulate General of Malaysia in Victoria, 100% of proceeds will be channelled towards the victims of the pandemic.

CHTNetwork is humbled to have the following advertisers who have contributed in this initiative. 

Advance Strata Consulting | Australian Property Developers Association | DLX Creative | Dr Mecherl Herbs | Goldmark | HLB Mann Judd | MORC Interior Fitout Specialist | Pitcher Partners | Sidespace | SHOP.COM

Although we are apart, it is truly important that we stay connected and help each other as much as possible.  This fight against Covid-19 cannot be won alone.  Together we can achieve more and show that we care for the fallen and the front-liners.  A big THANK YOU to all of those who have helped out in making this a success.  Together we can survive the Covid-19 storm!

如身在电影世界，《2020年》原本可以是由史蒂芬金（Stephen King）编撰，让昆汀塔伦蒂诺（Quentin Tarantino）制作的影片，但事实上我们并非存活在电影世界里，可悲的是，必须直面真实的伤亡情况。

我们深感遗憾地宣布，基于对大流行病的限制因素，取消今年的CHTNetwork 晚会。然而，在这个艰难时期，履行企业社会责任对我们来说是无与伦比的重要。

去年，我们为澳大利亚痴呆症患者筹集了1万多澳元。今年，我们正在为受 COVID-19 大流行病影响的受害者筹集资金。这次与马来西亚驻维多利亚州总领事馆携手合作，100%的收益将用于帮助此次疫情的受害者。

CHTNetwork 很荣幸获得以下的广告商为这一倡议做出贡献:
