Dear Friends: 

 

The Tsunah Foundation has launched its Ninth International Youth Culture Tour to Taiwan program.  This is a great opportunity for young International Taiwanese who are at least 18 years old, and were born and/or grew up outside of Taiwan to get to know more about their motherland.  I hope you, your children, or your friends will enroll in this wonderful program, and please forward this information to your friends, members of your organizations, and people in your local Taiwanese communities.  Please help also by posting this letter on your web-site, and establish the link from your web-site to Tsunah Foundation�fs web-site, www.taiwancenter.com/tsunah.

 

The highlights of this year�fs program are listed below.

• The cost is $850 per person excluding the airplane ticket cost. 
• The total tour lasts eleven days (12/22/07-1/1/08).
• There is a scholarship program for the participants.

This year, the group will visit the beautiful Ilan County scenic sites and stay in the Tsunah�fs dormitory facility there for the first three days.  Then, the group will go around the island touring the East Coast, the southern part, and the northern part of Taiwan , visiting sites of historical and cultural interest, and having fun at the same time. 

 

Please visit the Tsunah web site, www.taiwancenter.com/tsunah for further and for updated information.

 

The deadline for the enrollment is October 31, 2007.  However, it is strongly recommended that interested people please register as soon as possible due to limited availability.  The airplane ticket is also increasingly difficult to find after September due to peak traveling season in December.

 

I am looking forward to your help and/or participation.  Please don�ft hesitate to e-mail or call me for any question.

 

Best Regards,

The Tsunah Foundation (Žœ—ÑŠî‹à˜ð) was founded in March 1991.  Its roots, however, extend back further to a tragedy in 1980, when Mr. and Mrs. Lin I-Hsiung (—Ñ‹`—Y) and Su-Min (•û‘f•q) lost their mother, Lin-Yu Ah-Mei, and their twin daughters, Lien Chiun and Tin Chiun, to a politically motivated assassination.  Soon after Mr. Lin was released from the political imprisonment, Mr. and Mrs. Lin were exiled from Taiwan .  Out of the depths of their grief for their loved ones, and for their separation from their homeland, Mr. and Mrs. Lin found new life and new hope, for themselves and for Taiwan .  Eleven years later, the establ ishment of the Tsunah Foundation in Taiwan was, and remains today, their expression of that hope.  The Tsunah Foundation has two missions: (1) to promote the values of empathy, love, and respect for all people, and (2) to promote cultural activities, and foster the development of a community of culturally enlightened, caring Taiwanese citizens.
