1.菲發放準備 Philippines Distributions begin

We start today in the Philippines, where in Mindanao, volunteers started relief distributions, in the storm-hit cities of Cagayan de Oro and Iligan, on Wednesday. Due to the extensive destruction, caused by Typhoon Washi, the estimated number of people in need of help has dramatically increased. That need was compounded by a delay in the arrival of supplies, which forced volunteers to make changes in their distribution plans. Before the hand-out began, the volunteers also visited some temporary shelters, to pass vouchers to victims.

慈濟志工開始在菲律賓民答那峨島上，受風災的卡加延德羅市跟伊里甘市，舉辦大型發放，因為瓦西颱風所造成的破壞，需要幫助的人越來越多，加上原本要抵達的物資出了狀況，志工只能以智慧應變，而發放開始前，志工先前往，災區的收容所發送物資發放卡。


2.菲風災募款 Philippines Supporting post-Washi relief

To give families in Mindanao hope, Tzu Chi volunteers in the Philippines are raising money in whichever way they can. In Metro Manila, Tzu Chings sang Christmas carols, at a fundraiser at Quezon City Sports Club; and other volunteers hit the streets, to collect money from passersby.

為了幫助民達那峨島上，瓦西風災的災民，菲律賓的慈濟志工到處募款，在計順市，慈青靠唱聖誕頌歌，在計順市運動中心募心募款，而馬尼拉的志工則是走上街頭，向民眾募愛心。


3.佛統府以工代賑 ThailandRelief work in Kalahome

Tzu Chi”s relief-work program was first implemented in disaster areas of Manila, which were hit by Typhoon Ketsana, in 2009. In the scheme, residents were paid to clean up their neighborhoods. After successfully reproducing the program in Hunsa village, of Bangkok, volunteers in Thailand introduced the program in the Kalahome community.

慈濟以工代賑的計畫首先在馬尼拉，2009年凱莎娜風災後，實施這個計畫，讓居民能打掃自己的家園，又能領取到工資，慈濟在泰國曼谷的涵灑村，實施該計畫圓滿後，也讓卡拉宏社區水災災民，可以一邊打掃又能賺錢。


4.涵灑村環保日 ThailandRecycling day in Hunsa

After experiencing the full force of nature, residents in the Hunsa neighborhood of Bangkok are also ready to embrace recycling. Having survived one of the worst floods to ever hit the nation, the residents fully understand how the climate is changing, due to global warming.

感受到大自然威力的可怕，泰國曼谷涵灑村的居民，開始做起環保愛護地球，體驗水患災難後，居民完全了解，因為全球暖化、氣候變遷的處境。


《 靜思語 》

The goal of recycling waste is to encourage and teach everyone how to cherish blessings.

資源回收的目的，在於提倡與教育人人懂得惜福。


5.1227北朝鮮(2)幕後觀察 North KoreaCrossing barriers

North Korea”s Kim Jung-il was buried in Pyongyang yesterday, with tens of thousands of mourners lining the streets. The untimely death of the ”dear leader” cut short Tzu Chi”s latest distribution of aid, to the disaster-hit country. Before the announcement was made, there were happier scenes, as volunteers handed out food, to hungry villagers.

北朝鮮領導人金正日逝世，北朝鮮昨天舉行盛大的國葬儀式，居民沿街悼念，因為領導人突如其來的死訊，讓慈濟對災區的發放中斷，宣告國傷訊息前，發放物資的氣氛很歡喜。


6.1229歷史的今天 On this day, the 29th of December

《 衲履足跡 》談心如工畫師 On Spiritual Mentors

Every Tzu Chi volunteer is a spiritual mentor who spreads the seeds of Great Love.
Volunteers uncover the unsightly and poor side of life, and paint it with colors; bringing hope and creating a beautiful picture for themselves and others.

每一位慈濟人都是揮灑大愛的『心靈工畫師』，將醜陋、髒亂與窮困的境界仔細擦拭，再畫出美好的人間境界，顯示未來的希望遠景，為己為人創造美景。


7.大陸冬令造冊ChinaPreparing for winter distributions

In China, Tzu Chi”s annual winter relief distributions have already begun, in some of the 13 provinces scheduled to receive aid. In Fujian”s Xiamen, some 400 local volunteers underwent training in their communities, so they will be ready when their turn comes. Meanwhile, in Guangdong”s Shenzhen, volunteers quickly compiled a distribution register, for five provinces.

在中國，慈濟一年一度的冬令發放，陸續在十三個省分展開，在福建廈門 約400位，參與發放的當地志工，參與社區的訓練課程，了解工作內容；而在廣東深圳，志工是快馬加鞭，為五個省分的冬令發放造冊。


8.泉州發放 ChinaQuanzhou winter aid

Poor residents in China”s Quanzhou will also have a happier new year, thanks to timely winter aid from Tzu Chi. Volunteers split into seven teams, to hand out supplies to 5,996 households, of 7,112 people. One of the locations was a monastery. Because the nuns did not have a car, the volunteers thoughtfully drove the heavy supplies to the temple. And, one boss of an architecture company, brought along his staff, to help out at another distribution site.

福建泉州市泉港區的慈濟冬令發放，也充滿歡樂的氣氛，發放團隊，分成七個動線，總計發放了5996戶 7112人，其中一個發放現場是寺院，因為前來領取物資的法師，經濟窘困沒有車子運送物資，志工貼心幫忙將物資送到寺院，發放現場還有建築公司老闆，帶著全部員工來做愛心，用行動助人。


9.海南冬令發放 ChinaWinter aid distribution in Hainan

Tzu Chi completed a winter aid-distribution on Hainan Island last weekend. The Chinese island was ravaged by two typhoons in October, which brought down torrential rainfall, and mudslides, that affected over a million people. The annual harvest was also hit hard, as a result of the subsequent flooding. (CG)After some assessment work, Tzu Chi decided to hold distributions, in three of the most needy towns. A total of 4,957 people, from 3,778 households, each received a 30kg bag of rice, 2.5 liters of cooking oil, and other daily essentials.

慈濟在上周末於大陸海南島，完成了冬令發放，今年十月，海南島接連遭受兩個秋颱肆虐，出現罕見的特大暴雨，引發土石流，造成一百萬人受災，加上澇患造成稻米收成減少，經過基金會評估，慈濟決定在最貧困的縣市進行發放，發放現場幫助3778戶 4957人，各個領取到30公斤大米、2.5公升的油及生活物資，讓我們一起來看看。
