Summary of My Exchange Journey In Taiwan- < Image Through Different Eyes>

               Hi, I am Huini, EP from Malaysia who joined the AIESEC Global Citizen Program <Image through Different Eyes> in Taiwan. The jobs scopes of this program are about interact with elders, attend classes and wall painting. I stayed in host family’s house during these 7 weeks and they also provided foods for me. I observed the friendliness and enthusiasm in Taiwanese. They welcomed me with kind hospitality and gave souvenirs in the first day we met. I felt very surprised because I did not expect they would prepare souvenirs for me! The family members in the house consists of parents, 2 sisters who are both younger than me, a grandfather and 2 adorably doggies in the house. I slept together with the sister in a double bed. After settled up all my stuff, my journey in Taiwan had just started!!!

The name of the community I served was “Association of Li Gong Development”. I attended the community’s activities on every Tuesday and Saturday. The amount of elders here is about 20 elders and their ages are around 70-80 years old. I introduced myself to them and they felt felicitated because I can speak in mandarin to communicate with them. The leader of the community always plan and organize programs which are beneficial to elders. One of the examples is “Talk of security”. They invited police to the community, taught and gave advises to the public on how to prevent criminals and cheats. Besides, they also invited lecturers from outside to deliver talk about “How to enjoying your elder life with health” and “Happiness Life”. I think that these will increase the confidence of elders to live healthily and joyfully. Furthermore, they also organized the event for giving free medical check-up, nail painting; free hair cutting, medical consultation for public. This event was not only for elders, residents nearby all are invited to participate.

On the other hand, every Saturday is the “sports day” for community, because they invited the teacher of belly dance come here to teach elders. The teacher was professional and full of patient. She always asked for opinions from elders “are these actions suitable for you all?” or “It is too difficult to do?” Elders are also very cooperating with teacher. They followed every step and try to remember it. They will have a competition of belly dance in the coming end of august, so they need to practice hard to perform well in the stage. Good Luck to the elders! Enjoy the moment!

         The other job scope for me is wall painting. I painted the wall with a group of high school students who came from Jian Gong Senior High School “Chun Hui Club”, which is a society serving club. We painted the wall by following the art leader. She drawn the draft at the wall first and we painted them in color. She was drawing well and creative! We processed our painting job in every afternoon from 3pm to 5pm. The process of painting was fast and high efficiency. The residents nearby was amazed by the painting. The reason to choose this place is to enlighten the area with colorful drawing and make residents feeling joyfully when watching these painting. We painted the wall with famous images like “LINE” icons and the cartoons that children like. The truth has proven that, we succeed in attracting the residents’ eyes. I can obviously tell that many residents are willing to come out compared to the first day we reached here!

           What I have learnt from this project is, I have observed that they are caring to the elders and deformity. They are sending free meals everyday to their houses whose are not able to cook themselves and go out. The costs of meals are all sponsored by the government there and give community to caring out this project of sending meals. From the aspect of meals, they also need to be qualified and access the quality of health. I think this is important to learn about the method to caring them and people who are disability. Furthermore, I observed that the difference is the elders there are willing to go out for exercise, joining activities actively, and willing to volunteer to associate project to be carried out successfully. The spirit of not recognized themselves are old is deserved to be respect and learn from.

 I really enjoyed immensely in this project. I do not regret choosing this project. Besides, I am very grateful to choose this project and met so many people who are nice and friendly. The leader of the community- Miss Chin, she is a nice person. I associated her to complete the video by editing and collecting all the videos and photos and made them into one video to present to the government. She also shared her splendid life with me. Our relationship was getting closer. She acted as my friend and taught me many things. I have learnt a lot of positive attitudes from her. She is worth to be praised!

               Last but not least, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my host family as I have stayed in their house for quite a long time. They have brought me the joy of camping with them. This is indeed a good chance to experience the camping style in Taiwan. We have also visited the beach in Yi Lan, night markets, and fulfill my dream to find the horse. I’m also very lucky to celebrate their aunt’s 20^thanniversary marriage and also her birthday. Thus, I did a card for her which recorded all the 7 weeks we spent together. In the last day which I have to fly back to my country, they sent me to the airport. I was really sad to leave and bid farewell to them. They bought souvenirs for me and asked me to bring back for my parents. At that particular moment, I couldn’t say a word; I was surprised and touched. It was my honor to meet them in Taiwan. I hope if I ever had the chance to visit Taiwan again, I will visit them. Thank you very much!!
