1. 美德州關懷

First up in the United States, days following the explosion of a fertilizer plant in the town of West, Texas, a security pe-ri-meter remains around the blast site to keep residents and media from entering. To date, only Tzu Chi has been granted permission, to enter the disaster zone, to assess and report on the current situation.

首先來看美國的報導，德州威斯特小鎮化學肥料廠大爆炸後，爆炸現場全部封鎖，所有的居民、媒體都禁止進入，但慈濟志工得到特別許可，進入爆炸現場進行採訪拍攝，報導災區情況。


2. 白宮桑迪表揚

Staying in the United States, the White House regularly recognizes individuals, businesses and organizations, for making a difference in society, through the program of ＂Champions of Change＂. Among those recently awarded for their relieft efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, is Tzu Chi, the only international religious organization selected.

也是美國的報導，白宮近來特地表揚在桑迪風災中，勇於改變現狀又能合作無間的個人及團體，在獲獎者中，慈濟是唯一的國際宗教團體。


3. 美風災照片展

Following months of relief work to help Hurricane Sandy survivors, the Tzu Chi New York Chapter organized a photo exhibition at the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in New York. The exhibition moved local residents, as well as the mayor of Pingtung County, Cao Qihong(曹啟鴻), who was on an official trip to the United States.

在美國，為了紀念慈濟在桑迪風災賑災的行動，慈濟紐約分會在台北經濟文化辦事處展出救災的照片，不只是當地人感動，而到美國訪問的屏東縣長曹啟鴻，也感同身受。


《 靜思語 》

Treat the world as our classroom, where each person is a teacher and each encounter a lesson.

以天地為教室，每個人、每件事，都是教科書與學習的對象。


4. 川超越震殤(1)北川經驗

This year marks the 5th anniversary of the devastating 5/12 earthquake, with survivors slowly recovering from the terrifying event. Beginning today, Da Ai TV reporters are taking us back to Wenchuan(汶川), to see what the government has done, after the 2008 tremor to help local residents rebuild their homes.

四川五一二大地震即將屆滿五周年，災區人民身心、軟硬體逐漸復原，從今天開始，大愛電視台記者帶著我們回到汶川，來看看政府在2008年災後為居民展開的重建工程。


5. 體檢環基法十年(4)山林篇

Have you heard of ecological restoration? It’s an increasingly common practice of restoring damaged ecosystems by human actions, such as planting trees. This practice is not limited to forests, but is applicable to wetlands, or any ecosystem that needs repair. Today, we meet an individual, who has turned his land from a betel nut tree farm into a ro-bust rainforest.

你有聽過自然復育嗎？這個理念就是把一些被破壞的生態系統重新復育，例如種樹，近年來也成為大家的共識，這個行動不是只侷限在森林中執行，還有濕地，以及其它生態系統，都可以修復。今天我們帶大家來認識一位地主，就把他的檳榔園復育成茂盛的雨林。


《 衲履足跡 》
On Correct Thought and (Correct) Action

When undertaking something that we know is correct, even if we encounter hindrances or setbacks, we won’t be put off, but instead will strive to be more careful. When we encounter unfortunate circumstances, they are there to show us that we are not yet ripe, that our hearts have yet to be fully purified and, therefore, need to be ever more motivated and diligent.

主題：談正念行善

開示：做正確的事，即使受到阻礙、挫折，也不會受影響，只是做事要更謹慎、更小心；發生令人遺憾的事故，是提醒我們做得還不夠，還有人的心沒有受到淨化，我們要更加用心與努力。


6. (時光機)0426SARS回顧

On April 24th, this year, Taiwan reported its first case of the H7N9 avian influenza. On the same day, 10 years ago, the-then Heping(和平) Hospital in Taipei, was locked down after having reported an outbreak of SARS. Today, we travel back in time, to the panic and fear the country lived through.

2013年4月24日，台灣傳出了第一例H7N9，十年前的同一天，當時的和平醫院因為爆發SARS疫情院內感染而封院，現在十年後，我們帶您回顧當時台灣社會極度恐慌難熬的時期。


7. 菲助學羅絲蒂

Next, we meet Mary Detayson from the Philipines, who through the help of Tzu Chi, was able to complete her studies, and go on to become an elementary school teacher as she dreamed of.

接著帶大家認識菲律賓羅絲蒂的故事，因為慈濟助學金的補助，讓她完成學業，並且完成成為小學教師的夢想。


END: 巴東發放眼鏡

In Indonesia’s West Sumatra, Tzu Chi volunteers who are concerned for the health of students, carried out a free eye examination service at a local school in Padang, and handed out glasses to those in need. We will leave you with these images. Thank you for tuning in. Goodbye.

1.邛崍發放 TC is here for you

First up in China; following the Yaan(雅安) Earthquake on April 20th, Sichuan Tzu Chi volunteers have visited the disaster zones, to better understand the needs of local residents.

《 靜思語 》

Every person has shortcomings; if the shortcomings can be overcome, we will live a wholesome life.

凡夫難免有缺點，若能勇於改過，必得完美的人生。


5.德州現值卡 Cash cards for explosion survivors

Moving to the United States, following an explosion at a fertilizer plant in the town of West, Texas, 142 houses were destroyed and 51 houses suffered major damage.

《 衲履足跡 》談品德教育 On Moral Education

We need to increase our vigilance and not let small desires or wrong thoughts cloud our hearts. Although perhaps small at the beginning, such desires and thoughts can(added this) slowly grow in power, eventually muddying our original nature and exhausting our spiritual resources. And a heart that has been despoiled as such, will do the same to the environment at large.

要提高警覺，不要讓小小貪心、惡念成為心靈的小偷，逐漸從竊賊養成強盜，破壞心靈環境、消耗心靈資源；心靈受破壞、污染，所作所為就會汙染大地環境。

9.體檢環基法十年(山林篇)2 In favor of monetary gains

In the recent years, Taiwan`s government has put boosting economical benefits ahead of environmental protection, such examples are the excessive limestone mining in Hualien, and the overdevelopment of tourist attractions in Ali(阿里) Mountain. Although Taiwan`s laws clearly states, un-renewable resources must be monitored and protected, sometimes governing bodies will turn a blind eye to such laws in favor of future economic benefits.

最近幾年，台灣為經濟發展掛帥，遠超過環保概念，例如花蓮山區開礦，以及開發阿里山景點的觀光，雖然台灣的環境基本法，清楚規定，不能過度開發，非再生性資源，必須被監管，採取保護措施，不過，政府單位，卻是爭一隻眼閉一隻眼，忽略環基法的執行，只向利益看起。

1.邛崍村民互助 Gaohe Town severely damaged

In China, after the Yaan(雅安) Earthquake on April 20th, many parts of Sichuan Province were left severely damaged. To help, on April 23rd, Tzu Chi volunteers held the first relief distribution, at Gaohe(高何) town in Qionglai(邛崍) City, helping more than 920 households. But first, let`s take a look, at the current living environment of local residents, and see how they are helpinig each other, through this difficult time.

2.體檢環基法十年(山林篇) Expansion or protection?

In 2002, Taiwan`s Environmental Constitution Supervision Act was established, but with no governing body, to carry out the act, many regional planning projects, slide by, without environmental consideration. Over the past 10 years, many natural disasters, have been ca-ta-stro-phic, but perhaps the residents of Taiwan, with the help of the act, could have helped prevent such devastating losses.

2002年，環境基本法已經生效，但卻沒有機構來關懷與執行，也不以環境做為考量，近十年來，許多地區發生的天災，造成嚴重死傷的情況，或許台灣人當時受到了大家的幫助，不過，真正要大家協助的，是要降低災情的發生。

3.馬地震體驗 Earthquake drill at TC Kindergarten

Due to its geographic location, the country of Malaysia, does not suffer from earthquakes. However, teachers at the Tzu Chi Butterworth Kindergarten nevertheless, organized an earthquake drill. Teachers hoped that through this experience, students will be prepared when disaster strikes.

因為地理位置，馬來西亞不容易發生地震，不過北海慈濟幼兒園的老師，還是安排了一場地震的實際體驗，老師希望學生從中學習到，如何居安思危。

6.緬烏達密 Spreading TC`s love far & wide

In our next report, we go to Myanmar to meet Tzu Chi care recipient U Thar Myint. Due to old age, the senior was no longer able to farm; therefore, starting last year, Tzu Chi began providing the senior with 50kg of rice, on a monthly basis. Touched by the volunteers` gesture, U Thar Myint decided to cook black sugar sago porridge for his fellow villagers. Unfortunately, the senior passed away from a brain hemorrhage two days later.

下一則新聞，我們來到緬甸，認識慈濟照顧戶烏達密，因為年紀大，他無法務農，因此慈濟從去年開始，每個月補助五十公斤大米，給他和家人，受志工的感動，烏達密決定煮緬甸新年一定會吃到的，黑糖西米粥給村民享用，不幸的是，活動的兩天後，烏達密則因腦溢血往生。


《 衲履足跡 》談人間菩薩招生 On Calling on Bodhisattvas

There is no limit to the amount of people that can walk the bodhisattva path. Our goal, however, is not to recruit new members for the sake of their donations, but to give them an opportunity to understand Tzu Chi. I hope that everyone can one day be a part of Tzu Chi and manifest the Buddhist NGO in their own lives.

《 衲履足跡 》談放寬心胸 On Opening Our Hearts

Our lives should not be tense but taut. This tautness comes from our understanding of the correct path and our sagacious use of every second to progress on this path. With our feet firmly planted on the path, we will notice a sense of ease in our lives; conversely, being nervous and tense comes from too much gain and loss in our hearts.

生活不要緊張，但是要精進。精進是懂得道理，把握時間，將分分秒秒應用於正向，且步步踏實，也能夠輕安自在；緊張是來自於得失----患得患失，才會有壓力。

天災不是人力能預防或阻止的，可是人心可以自我調整。警覺地球資源有限，就要自我約束，改變生活習慣。力行「八分飽」行動，將作惡造業的人心轉為善行。

Natural disasters are not something that humans can predict or prevent, but we can, however, change our hearts.

Along those lines, the 80% full campaign has the power to change people`s behavior for the better.

As of April 14th, 60 cases of H7N9 infection, have been reported in China, with the death toll at 13. Although currently, there is no concrete evidence, of human-to-human transmission, new research shows, genetic changes in the H7N9 strain, could possibly make the virus more infectious. Meanwhile, in Taiwan, the Council of Agriculture, expressed the possibility, that the ban, on the slaughtering of live poultry, at traditional markets, may come earlier than planned.


截至4月14號為止，中國H7N9流感累計60人感染 13人死亡，但是目前還沒有足夠證據有人傳人的傳播，根據世衛組織公布的資料顯示，目前H7N9病毒已經有一個變異，另一方面，台灣農政單位表示，因應疫情上升逐步禁止傳統市場屠宰活禽的實施時間可能提前。

In Meinong(美濃) District of Kaohsiung(高雄) alone, there are over 700 foreign spouses. Among them is Du Sixuan(杜思璇), who came to live and work in Meinong(美濃), after her divorce. Despite her nationality, she is just like any Taiwanese mother, who will do anything for her son.

目前在台灣外籍配偶人數已高達46萬人，他們 大多數是女性 飄洋過海遠嫁台灣，在高雄美濃已經有七百名外籍配偶，來自越南的杜思璇在離婚後，來到這裡 美濃以採野蓮為生，她跟所有的台灣媽媽一樣，寧願吃苦也要把孩子好好帶大。

Just when this family is in despair, Tzu Chi volunteers and TIMA medical staff arrived with love and care.

台中市豐原區有一個慈濟照顧戶家庭，王先生罹患小腦萎縮症往生，49歲就往生，三個兒子都遺傳到小腦萎縮症，陸續發病癱瘓，幸好有慈濟人和人醫會志工，為這個家帶來長期的愛與關懷。


6. 南非法親關懷 Remembering Jiang Fude

Tzu Chi`s history in Bloem-fon-tein, South Africa, began with Tzu Chi volunteer Jiang Fude(江富德), who seized every opportunity to do Tzu Chi`s work. He would often visit Zulu children in remote townships, distributing stationery. Although he passed away from cancer a few years ago, his spirit inspired many fellow volunteers, to continue spreading the seeds of love, all across the city.

慈濟在南非布魯芳登是從慈濟志工 江富德開始，江富德把握時間做慈濟，也常到鄉下發放文具用品給祖魯族學生，雖然他幾年前因癌症往生，他的慈濟法親承接他的遺願，讓愛的種子繼續在布魯芳登發芽茁壯。

In Taiwan, facing price fluctuations in vegetables, many consumers find themselves at times, unable to afford certain vegetables. In fact, the Agriculture and Food Agency, established a plan to prevent this problem. To date, however, the plan has not been able, to stop market fluctuations. In our next report, let`s find out the reason, behind the fluctuation in vegetable prices.

在台灣，面對菜價有時漲有時跌，消費者大喊吃不消，其實農糧署也有預防蔬菜盛產，造成菜價跌的預警制度，目前這個制度仍然跟不上變化，下一則報導，我們來探討造成菜價暴跌暴漲的原因。


8. 慈大生態農園 Creating an eco-park at Tzu Chi Univ.

When it comes to saving the earth, getting out the message of environmentalism is important; however, slogans and ideas still need to be turned into action. Students at the Tzu Chi University in Hualien,Taiwan were doing just that when they took the first step in transforming an empty lot into an ecological park and farm. Administrators and teachers at the school hope that such activities will encourage the students to continue their good work even after graduation.

愛護大地不只是口號更要化為實際行動，慈濟大學的學生就把一片空地規劃成自然的生態農園，校長和老師希望透過這個活動鼓勵學生，就算畢業了也要將這個善舉延續下去。

1. 曼谷火災發放 Aid distribution for fire victims

We start off the show in Thailand, In downtown Bangkok, a fire broke out at midnight, leaving some 200 residents homeless. Upon receiving the news, Tzu Chi volunteers arrived to hand out emergency cash and relief items. As the local residents were celebrating Song-kran, as part of their New Year`s festivities, volunteers also arranged some activities to help the fire victims, feel the happiness of the New Year.

泰國曼谷市區在半夜發生一場火災造成約兩百位居民無家可歸，泰國慈濟志工在接獲消息後，前往發放應急金和生活物資，恰巧遇上泰國人慶祝新年潑水節，志工特地安排了慶祝活動，讓他們也能感受過節的溫馨。


2. 峇株巴轄發放 Caring for tornado victims

In early April, a tornado hit Se-gen-ting, a small town in Batu Pahat, Malaysia. Altogether eight households suffered damages from the tornado, but thankfully there were no casualties. Upon learning of the disaster, Tzu Chi volunteers rushed to survey the aftermath and later handed out consolation cash and relief supplies. Knowing that the emergency cash was donated by compassionate people for the less fortunate, all eight households decided to donate it back to Tzu Chi to continue this cycle of kindness.

四月初，一場龍捲風席捲馬來西亞峇株巴轄的石文丁，有八戶受災，所幸沒有人傷亡，慈濟志工前往勘災並且發放慰問金和生活物資，因為知道慈濟的慰問金來源都是好心人的善款，受災的八戶人家，決定捐出所有的善款，表達他們最大的感恩。


3. 疾管疫情 & 防疫做環保 H7N9 continues to spread in China

With the H7N9 virus threat un-diminished, Tzu Chi volunteers have geared up efforts for prevention. In light of the H7N9 outbreak in China, Tzu Chi volunteers at the Zhonghe (中和) and Yonghe (永和) recycling stations in Taiwan have taken measures to ensure the safety of their recycling volunteers. Meanwhile in China, the H7N9 virus continues to spread, now including Beijing(北京) and Henan(河南) Province , among Jiangsu (江蘇), Zhejiang (浙江), Anhui (安徽) Provinces and Shanghai City. With the first family cluster, for H7N9 identified in Shanghai, officials from the Center for Disease Control says, it is possible that transmission is limited between close family members, but they have not ruled out the possibility of human-to-human transmission at this stage.

目前H7N9流感的危機尚未排除，防疫大作戰慈濟志工也不落人後，面對H7N9來勢洶洶，志工也在中和和永和環保站進行消毒確保大家的安全，而大陸現在疫情持續擴散，從原本的江蘇、浙江、安徽以及上海市，增加一省一市北京市和河南省，而上海還傳出家庭聚感染，我國疾管局表示，可能只是侷限性人傳人，還沒有出現持續性人傳人。


4. 菜農辛酸 No one knows our sorrows

In Taiwan, after Chinese New Year, prices for cabbage have been as low as 3 New Taiwanese Dollars per kilograms. As cabbage farmers don`t make any profit with such low prices, many have decided to destroy their cabbages or have let members of the public, to take them home free of charge. In our next report, we meet a few cabbage farmers and listen to the problems they are currently facing. Here`s more.

5. 廈門城中村助學 Tzu Chi helping immigrant families

Currently living in Fujian(福建)`s Xiamen(廈門) City are over 1 million immigrants from China`s interior. Most of them can be found living in one of the city`s oldest areas. Starting in 2010, Tzu Chi volunteers have been extending school scholarships to promising children from these families. Over the last two years alone, 288 children have received financial help from Tzu Chi, to continue with their schooling. The scholarships have also motivated these students to study hard so that, they too, one day may give back to society.

在福建廈門，有一百多萬的外來務工人員在當地打拚，他們多數住在居家環境簡陋的城中村，慈濟志工從2010年開始走入這些困難的家庭進行關懷，兩年來資助了288位外來務工人員的子女上學，不僅送上助學金也鼓勵他們努力求學，長大回饋社會。


6. 越南平新助學 Tuition support for needy students

In Vietnam, Tzu Chi volunteers continue to help needy families with tuition support. This time, volunteers are helping those students living in Binh Tan District, in Ho Chi Min City. The volunteers not only handed out tuition aid, daily necessities, but also showed a film about protecting the environment, in hopes that students and parents alike will excercise such concepts in their daily lives.

在越南，慈濟志工也持續針對貧困家庭的學生發放助學金，這次的對象主要是平新郡的學生，志工不僅發送助學金和生活物資，還透過愛護地球的影片，希望孩子們與家長都能把環保觀念落實在家中。


7. 卓蘭醫病醫心 House calls in remote areas
In Taiwan, over the past decade, TIMA doctors and medical volunteers have carried out monthly free clinics, for residents living in mountainous areas of Miaoli(苗栗) County. As part of their regular visits, doctors and volunteers made house calls to patients with limited mobility. Seeing how these medical volunteers treated their patients like family, the Tzu Chings, who were along for this visit, were inspired to follow their path, in serving the needy.

在台灣過去是多年來，慈濟人醫會志工每個月定期前往苗栗偏遠山區舉行義診，在定期的活動中，醫師和志工前往行動不便的貧病家庭看診，看見醫病之間親如家人，參與的慈青深受感動，承諾要追隨他們 幫助弱勢。

1. 越南委員培訓 & 馬環保培訓 TC volunteers training seminars

As a part of the commitment in carrying out Tzu Chi`s missions, Tzu Chi volunteers around the globe regularly hold training seminars, to get the latest news on the organization`s work worldwide, as well as to further motivate themselves to walk the bodhisattva path with perseverance. In Malaysia, at the Tzu Chi Klang Branch, 22 Tzu Cheng members put on the musical of “Vow in Action” at a recycling volunteer training seminar, for over 200 participants. But first, we join Vietnam Tzu Chi volunteers, who held their first commissioner and Tzu Cheng training seminar, to help the newly joined members better understand the Buddhist NGO.

投入慈濟的志業，全球的慈濟志工也定期舉辦培訓，了解全球慈濟志業的動向也堅定自己走菩薩道的心，在馬來西亞的慈濟巴生支會，22位慈誠隊表演行願的手語給前來參與環保志工培訓的200位志工，但首先，我們先跟著越南慈濟志工，舉辦今年首次的委員慈誠培訓課程，讓新加入的志工可以更了解慈濟。


2. 澳慈青生活營 Learning a precious lesson

Moving to the Down Under, in Melbourne, Australia, Tzu Chi volunteers and Tzu Chings held an introductory seminar for university students, to learn more about the charity organization, as well as to promote filial piety and recycling concepts. Through watching a series of video clips, short plays, and sign language performances, these students not only came to realize their wrongdoings, but were also inspired to contribute what they can to society.


將鏡頭轉到南半球在澳洲墨爾本，慈濟志工以及慈青舉辦慈青生活營，邀請當地大學生參加，了解慈濟也推廣孝順還有環保理念，透過看影片、短劇還有手語表演，學生們不只了解自己過去所犯的錯，也深受啟發 為社會付出。

4. 菜價崩盤 Deflation of vegetable prices

To farmers, little rainfall meant a suitable time for growing vegetables, and thus, many in Taiwan did so during this year`s spring season. However, a good harvest of cabbages also led to an overall price drop in the vegetable market. According to the Xiluo(西螺) Traditional Market in Yunlin(雲林) County - which is the largest fruit and vegetable trading center in Taiwan - the average price for cabbages dropped from 28 to just 3 NTD. In our next report, we investigate the problems behind the fluc-tua-ting price of cabbages. Here`s more.

對農夫來說少雨最適合種植蔬果，因此春天少雨讓台灣收成良好，然而高麗菜收成好卻也因此價格下跌，根據國內最大的果菜交易中心西螺果菜市場，去年到今年高麗菜的平均價錢從最高的台幣28元跌到台北3元，下一則新聞，我們來探討高麗菜價錢巨大變動背後的問題，讓我們來看看。

6. 馬環保老菩薩(四) A guardian of the recycling station

Here in Butterworth, Malaysia, recycling volunteer Zhen Songfang(甄松芳) has become a guardian of the Mohamad Saad Recycling Station, as he works to protect recyclables from outsiders who try to steal them. Although he has not signed up to become a Tzu Chi volunteer, whenever and wherever help is needed, Zhen(甄) will always be there to lend his support to the volunteers. Zhen Songfang(甄松芳) says, recycling work has made his retired life more colourful and fulfilling.

在馬來西亞北海，環保志工甄松芳，因為不忍環保站的回收物被偷竊，因而成為莫哈末沙亞環保站的守護者，雖然他並沒有正式成為慈濟志工，但是只要有需要他都願意當不請之師，雖然甄松芳經退休，他說日子有了環保反而倍加的精彩、有意義。


7. 星百歲嬤關懷 Tzu Chi cares for centenarian

In the neighboring country of Singapore, care recipient Chen Xinjing(陳心景) turned 105 this year. For the past 20 years, Chen has been a recipient of Tzu Chi`s aid and care. Despite not coming from a wealthy background, Chen still found much joy in helping others, by donating any spare change she had. Now, with her advanced age, Tzu Chi volunteers remain by Chen`s side ensuring that her twilight years, are filled with companionship and the warmth of a loving family.

鄰近國家新加坡有一位慈濟照顧戶陳心景，今年已經105歲接受慈濟幫助有20年的時間，陳奶奶雖然生活不富裕但是樂善好施，把省下來的錢捐出來幫助他人，年事已高的她，志工還是持續陪伴在她身邊，讓她的晚年，充滿家的溫暖。

This time around, students not only made their own picture book by hand, but also put on a performance to illustrate the story.

來到馬來西亞，高淵慈濟幼兒園的孩子們拜訪特殊兒童中心，過去三年來幼兒園定期會關懷，這些有特殊需求的孩子，這次除了贈送自製的繪本也講述並演出繪本裡的故事。

Taiwan`s update on H7N9 bird flu


Palliative care, a natural life cycle

MY Tzu Chings audition for musical


Welcome to Da Ai Headlines. I`m Wendy Chen. Thank you for joining us.

歡迎收看大愛英文新聞，我是陳美瑾，感恩您的加入。


Coming up in today`s show, Taiwan`s government is implementing necessary safety measures to prevent the possible spreading of the H7N9 bird flu.

In our final report on the topic of palliative care, we look into why it is probably the best choice of treatment for terminally ill patients and family members.

And, to prepare for the upcoming musical in October, Malaysia Tzu Chings are calling on students from various universities to take part.


今天的提要，台灣政府為了預防H7N9流感疫情延燒到台發，有了安全措施

今天的安寧醫療照護相關專題，帶大家看看為何安寧照護，是病患和家屬最佳的醫療選擇

接著，為了十月份的演繹，馬來西亞各大學的慈青開始進行演練


1.0410疾管疫情+禽鳥禁餵食H7N9 brings Taiwan on high alert

First up; in order to prevent the possible spreading of the H7N9 virus into Taiwan, local residents are asked to avoid direct contact with bird species. Beginning Wednesday, April 10th, the Taipei City Government has taken measures to reinforce the Waste Disposal Act, which states that the feeding of animals can be penalized by law. Though there are currently no confirmed reports of H7N9 breakout in Taiwan, as of April 10th, 46 suspected cases were reported, of which 41 were dismissed, and 5 are still under investigations. The Central Epidemic Command Center also sent two Taiwanese e-pi-de-mio-logists to Shanghai, who upon their return have confirmed that the live poultry markets has been closed. However whether this method is effective in containing the bird flu or not, will depend on the number of reported cases after April 15th. So far, there is no evidence of human-to-human transmission, however members of the public are to remain alert and pay attention to personal hygiene.

首先，來看為了防堵H7N9流感疫情延燒到台灣，當局呼籲民眾，要減少和禽鳥接觸的機會，台北市從4月10號開始，依據廢棄物清理法，不可飼養禽畜的規定，目前台灣尚未傳出H7N9確定病例，但是截至4月10號下午為止，全台共有46例通報病例，其中41例已經排除，5例還在檢驗中，而這個月，中央流行疫情指揮中心派遣兩位防疫專家，到上海勘查H7N9疫情，專家返國表示，上海目前已經關閉活禽市場，是能有效防堵疫情，就要看十五號之後病例是否減少，而目前H7N9還沒有人傳人病例，但還是要提醒民眾注重個人衛生。


2.開普敦家訪Visiting communities with aid supplies

Moving to Cape Town of South Africa, Tzu Chi volunteers and local volunteers together visited local communities with relief supplies. The volunteers also seized the opportunity to share with residents, the joy of selfess giving and encouraged them to do good deeds.

轉到南非的開普敦，志工與本土志工帶來物資，走入社區，志工也趁這個機會向當地居民分享助人的快樂，更邀請民眾一同來做好事。


3.緬潑水節送禮Gifts for Burmese care recipients

In Myanmar, the Burmese celebrate their New Year in mid-April, through what is known as the ”Water Festival.” As the festival is just around the corner, Tzu Chi volunteers purchased New Year`s gifts and daily necessities to deliver to the doorsteps of their care recipients.

緬甸人在四月中，慶祝他們的新年，當地人會舉行潑水節來慶祝，在節慶之前，緬甸慈濟志工上街採買新年及生活用品，親自送到照顧戶家中。


4.最後一哩路(3)Ultimate goal of palliative care

Comprehensive palliative care is not only about giving patients suffering from terminal illness, peace of mind and better quality of life in their final days, but it also shares the heavy burden of many family members, by giving them support as they accompany their loved ones. The cycle of life is something we hear about every day, but in fact, when it comes to your loved one, it is never easy to let go and bid farewell.

強調全方位照顧的安寧療護，不只讓重症末期的病人可以平靜的休養，維持最後的生活品質和尊嚴，來走完最後一程，還能減輕家屬的負擔，幫助他們陪伴家人走過死亡的幽谷，雖然生老病死是人生必經的過程，但面對自己的親人離別總是不容易。


5.馬環保老菩薩(三)A committed recycling volunteer

At the Mohamad Saad Recycling Station in Butterworth, Malaysia, 72-year-old recycling volunteer, Hu Yuai(胡玉愛), is committed to recycling work come rain or shine. Hu(胡) says, it is through recycling that she has gain a healthy body, got rid of her bad temper and improved her relationship with her children.
