# China Grandma Given Red Carpet Welcome At Changi Airport After Not Seeing Her Family For 3 Years

With Chinese New Year just more than a week away and China finally opening its borders yesterday (Jan 8), many have travelled to other countries to reunite with their families.

One of them was this grandma, who had a red carpet welcome upon her arrival at Changi Airport.

## Red carpet welcome at Changi Airport

In a [28-second clip](https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=740149450775394&extid=NS-UNK-UNK-UNK-IOS_GK0T-GK1C&mibextid=2Rb1fB&ref=sharing) posted by 8World News on Facebook, it showed a family of four setting up a small red carpet at the arrival hall of Changi Airport Terminal 1.

A young boy and girl were seen waiting for their grandma to arrive, where they were holding a bouquet and a sign reading **"A warm welcome, dear grandma"**.

Seconds later, an elderly woman, believed to be the grandma, was pushed out in a wheelchair by an airport staff.

Upon seeing her family, the woman got up from the wheelchair and walked down the red carpet as the children rushed to greet her.
