Feeling Like in Shanghai - Our Very Poor Chinese Standard 2

I was invited by the Senior Constituency Manager of Teck Ghee Constituency Office to meet up with the Chairman of Teck Ghee Zone 'A' RC and the writer of the Chinese slogan in the banner for a face-to-face meeting. They feel that it is best to meet face-to-face with me so as to allow them to explain the reason why the words were chosen for this banner and also to hear my views regarding the banner wording. I have gladly accepted the invitation.

On the other hand, if an alternative is needed, I have the following suggestion:
德高望远数十载
义勇卫国千百年

I am no expert for coming up with couplets. However, I think to sacrifice the correctness of characters is not the way.

Any suggestions?
