Jessica Young-jye Chueh, a Taiwanese Canadian, was born in
British Columbia where she grew up enjoying the natural beauty of
the oceans, forests and mountains of her home. She now practices
photography, focusing in her primary genre of landscape, on her
travels in Australia and the South Pacific. A spiritual woman,
Jessica takes strength in Christ and is grateful for the many gifts
she has been given in her life, sharing them with others. In her
regular job, she doctors in a small medical practice of rural
Australia, striving to anticipate and avert emergencies before they
disturb the outlook.

island of Taiwan If you ask Who is the mother of the island of
Taiwan I will tell you The ocean is the mother of the island of
Taiwan If you ask What is the past of the island of Taiwan I will
tell you Blood and tears drop on the feet of the history of Tai-wan
If you ask What is the present of the island of Taiwan I will tell
you Corruption in power is evading the Taiwanese soul If you ask
What is the future of the island of Taiwan I will tell you Step out
on your feet, the road is open to you Face the sky Face the ocean
The life on the island of Taiwan Is deeply curved into my heart
Face the past Face the future You and me hand in hand In this
deeply hurt hand draw a picture of the new nation For this
beautiful island Step out on the journey of hope For this beautiful
nation Walk out and rebuild the road

KANO KANO KANO KAN 1931 17 KANO is a 2014 Taiwanese baseball
film di-rected by Umin Boya and produced by WEI Te-Sheng and Jimmy
Huang. It depicts how the multi-racial Kano baseball team from
southern Taiwan overcame great odds to represent the island in the
1931 Japanese High School Baseball Championship at Koshien Stadium,
when Taiwan was still under Japanese rule. Performing beyond all
expectations, the underdog team advanced to the championship game
in the tournament.

3 As of now, are there 9, 12 or 14 tribes of Taiwan Aboriginals?
The answer is 16! The reason is that the Aboriginal association
approved the addition of 2 other tribes as well as their tribes
names and resolution. The number of Taiwanese Aboriginals is
approximately 535,000, which is 2% of Taiwans population. They are
located in 55 towns. Looking over Taiwans history and progress, the
aboriginals may seem glorious on the outside, but actually they are
under negative cycle and severe political conflicts in which they
experience stigma, their voices are being silenced and they are
being weakened. In addition, since the Aboriginals self-governing
laws are not matured yet, this leads to one problem after another
on the development of their history and progress. Not only do they
lack the space to express their opinions, they are being
marginalized among the mainstream ideology. Next, due to
post-colonial ruling power and topics, Taiwan identity and values
that are wrong, twisted and self-righteous often occurred and
therefore caused irreparable harm to the aboriginals and further
deepens negative stereotype impressions about the Aboriginals. The
writer thinks that if we want to form aboriginals Taiwan identity,
the current cultural circumstances and trend of thought need to be
analyzed by the Aboriginals, then form the Aboriginals identity and
discussion that are post-colonial, independent and have liberating
meaning. In other word, we need to focus and understand the reason
why the Aboriginals have weaker self-identity, indecisive social
experience. Therefore, I want to share the obstacles and challenges
we would face from Aboriginals point of view. Dilemma &
Challenge 1. Anxiety over Separation Due to the circumstances, the
migration of global population is mainly due to the need to work
and living needs, so people keep moving from places to places. This
is no exception for the Aboriginals; many people leave their
hometowns to work at other places in order to have better
circumstances and conditions in the future and for the next
generations. However, such moving around is also the moving around
of ethnic types or ethnic groups and therefore causes negative
impacts to the Abo-riginals. Because they are forced to work far
away and at the same time the society brings alienation and
marginali-zation, this causes young Aboriginals to leave their
homes when they are very young and live in the cities to study or
work. From a general perspective, they seem to be happy and they
are satisfied. In fact, many people wish to return to their homes
but they cannot find ( P.14)

( P.11)appropriate jobs when they return, so they cannot return!
So this causes young Aboriginals to have the anxiety over
separation. 2. Participation in Public Issues Even though the
education standard of Aboriginals popularizes gradually and many
Aboriginal youth are interested gradually in understand-ing their
culture and tradition, they still do not have enough knowledge
about their countrys affairs. The main reason is even though they
are interested in their tradition and culture, they do not really
understand ethnic groups important issues in the society and
politics, for example, self-governing laws, land laws, fisheries,
traditional fields and etc. and all these are closely related to
the Aboriginals survival. Therefore, the self-identity chal-lenge
of Aboriginals new generation is to learn to participate in the
public issues and affairs as well as devote diligently to the
su-pervision of government ruling and operation in order to protect
their ethnic rights and ob-ligation. Therefore, thank you to those
who work for Taiwans democracy and the leaders of Sunflower Student
Movement. Because of your bravery, many young Aboriginals are
encouraged and start to really think about their future survival
and rights. 3. To Inherit the Vision of Aboriginal Self-Governing
Finally, young Aboriginals are starting to identify with their
tradition and culture. But many are at the stage of knowing
something new and with curiosity, they still need to be encouraged
to discuss the motive behind their culture and tradition. However,
they have to face the important task of inher-iting. The biggest
challenge is the lack of organization and agreement. New generation
of Aboriginals need to focus on ethnic con-sciousness to accumulate
the foundation of democracy reform and self-governing. So they are
the same as all Taiwanese young people; they all need to think
about how to pass on Taiwanese democracys development and
planning.
Greetings, members of TCCS! It has been a little over a year
since I visited your spe-cial organization. After Vancouver, I
vis-ited a similar organization as yours in Ta-coma, Wa. called the
Asian Pacific Cul-tural Center (APCC) whose members are transplants
from the Asian Pacific region. A toastmasters club has been formed
there and from their Facebook it has become a dynamic magnet that
energizes the com-munity. Next month, I have been invited to speak
at Kwang Hua Taiwan Society in
Hong Kong. It is a privilege to connect with the Taiwanese
dias-pora around the world. I would like to take this opportunity
to wish you all
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
