According to the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, at 14:25 on November 8, Beijing time, the central government's giant panda offspring gifted to Macao, "Jianjian" and "Kangkang", arrived safely at Chengdu Shuangliu Airport by flight. After inspection by veterinarians and breeders, the two giant pandas are in good health. Subsequently, they were transferred to the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding (hereinafter referred to as the Panda Base) and began quarantine for at least one month.

To ensure safe and smooth transportation, Sichuan and Macao worked closely together. The Panda Base arranged for veterinarians and husbandry and management experts to go to Macau in advance to familiarize themselves with the living habits of the two giant pandas, and work with Macau to carry out daily physical examinations, health assessments and transportation adaptability training. During the transportation, teams from both sides accompanied the giant panda throughout the entire process, monitoring the giant pandas' physical condition in real time and taking care of their diet and health.

"Jianjian" and "Kangkang" were born on June 26, 2016. Their parents gave Macau giant pandas "Kaikai" and "Xinxin" as gifts. The younger brother "Kangkang" weighed only 53.8 grams at birth, which is an ultra-light birth weight for giant pandas. It is difficult to raise cubs. That year, the Chengdu base dispatched experts to Macau as soon as possible to work closely with the Macau feeding and nursing team. They were on duty 24 hours a day and took careful care of the animal, which ultimately helped "Kangkang" successfully overcome the difficulties of survival.

After the isolation and quarantine, "Jianjian" and "Kangkang" will move into the Xingyun Pavilion. The venue has been specially optimized and upgraded to incorporate Macao cultural elements, simulate the natural habitat, and is equipped with complete enrichment facilities to create a safe and comfortable living space for giant pandas.
