1. 曼谷低窪訪視 Worst flood in 50 years
First up today, Thailand is currently facing the worst flood in 50 years. Beginning as early as late July, about 75 percent of the country is now under water. Tzu Chi volunteers have come to the aid of deluged communities for the past two months. Recently, they set up a soup kitchen in Lop Buri Province, and also began to help flooded areas of the capital, Bangkok.
節目一開始來看，泰國正面臨五十年來最嚴重的水患，從七月底開始，如今全國約百分之75泡在水裡面，兩個月來，慈濟人的行動不停歇，幫助受災的社區，最近在華富里府持續煮餐送餐，也開始幫助首都曼谷的低窪社區。
2. 泰國斯麗樂 Tzu Chi to the rescue
Staying in Thailand, we meet 32 years old Sirilak, who underwent an operation for a curved spine 17 years ago, only to be left paralyzed from the waist down. Unable to walk or exercise, Sirilak has become obese to the point that she could no longer fit into taxis. With her bed sores requiring a visit to the hospital, her mother, who learned of Tzu Chi through a client of hers, called for help. Thanks to the volunteers at the Tzu Chi Thailand Chapter, Sirilak not only made it to the hospital, but is also learning how to become self-sufficient.
繼續來看泰國，一位三十二歲的斯麗樂，十七年前因為脊椎側彎開刀治療，從此下半身癱瘓，無法行走、運動，體重跟著直線上升，甚至重到沒辦法坐計程車，由於褥瘡嚴重，必須去醫院治療，媽媽透過客戶認識慈濟，聯絡志工請求協助，這才讓斯麗樂能及時就醫治療，也學習到如何能更加獨立。
3. 新芽萌愛(2)蔡孟妤 Cai Mengyu runs like the wind
Continuing our series on students who received Tzu Chi”s New Shoots Scholarship this year, today we meet (蔡孟妤)Cai Mengyu from Taichung”s Shalu district. The young girl has to help care for her nearly blind father and her deaf-mute grandparents at home, but has still managed to win first place at a recent sports competition.
繼續我們有關接受慈濟新芽助學金的學生的專題，今天我們要認識台中沙鹿區的蔡孟妤，這位小女孩要幫忙照顧雙眼幾近乎失明的爸爸，還有是聾啞人士的阿公阿嬤，但是她還要努力在運動場上嶄露頭角。
《 靜思語 》
Contribute according to one”s ability; tiny droplets of love have the collective power to achieve great things.
隨分隨力，涓滴愛心可累積成就大業。
4. 找一碗飯(二) Science of rice farming
Rice is the most important agricultural produce in Taiwan. But since 2002, when Taiwan joined the WTO and opened its market to rice imports, local production has fallen. The government implemented a set-aside policy, and now 220,000 hectares of farmland are left fallow. The farmers who are still in business turn to the experts for new and improved strains of rice, that can help them compete in the international market.
稻米是台灣最主要的農作物，但2002年加入世界貿易組織，各國稻米陸續進口，衝擊國內稻米產業，當時政府實施輪作、休耕，休耕面積達到22萬公頃，樂天知命的農民，還有農改場，一起改良稻米新品種，讓他們的米躍上國際市場。
《 衲履足跡 》
On Carbon Reduction
Cutting emissions and reducing pollution can be achieved by curbing on our shopping desires that drive the consumer market. Today”s unpredictable weather patterns highlight the need for more environmental efforts, and the preservation of resources.
主題：談節能減碳
開示：節能減碳的方法，就是少欲知足，莫不斷地購物而使工業不斷地製造，也能降低污染。氣候異常，更突顯環保的重要：疼惜地球，就要疼惜大地物資，節省、愛惜用物。
5. 四川環保宣導 Recycling on the rise
It has been three years since the earthquake that devastated Sichuan in west China. Three years after the tragedy, homes and school have been rebuilt, and residents are getting on with their lives. Badly damaged Hanwang Town has been divided into nine villages and ten small districts. To keep up their work in the area, Tzu Chi volunteers are encouraging residents to recycle. The call to protect the planet and raise money to help other disaster victims, has produced a big response from the villagers.
四川大地震發生已經三年了，地震後，家和學校陸續重建完成，居民的生活也漸漸步入軌道，地震重創區，像漢旺，就分成九村、十個小區，志工在這裡展開環保宣導，要呼應居民一起做環保愛地球，也募心幫助需要的人，活動受到居民熱烈的響應。
6. 印佛環保論壇 Bandung Buddhists battle global warming
Staying on the topic of environmentalism, but moving to Indonesia, in Bandung, Buddhists have come together for a seminar on battling global warming. The local Tzu Chi office was among the many guests invited to share their insights. Many participants were surprised to find out that it doesn”t take a lot to start making an impact.
也是環保相關議題，不過鏡頭轉到印尼。印尼萬隆的佛教徒為了全球暖化，而聚集在一起討論對策，當地慈濟分會也獲邀參與，許多民眾都很驚訝，愛地球其實很簡單。

It marked the beginning of an exponential growth of local charity work, which now involves around 4,000 volunteers and 120,000 donating members.
1992年，慈濟的種子來到馬來西亞，1993年就在首都吉隆坡成立了聯絡處，越來越多人願意加入行善行列，卻苦無一個固定的據點，直到1996年，當時的聯絡處負責人劉濟雨、簡慈露夫婦，捐出自己的公寓作為會所，聯絡處也成為現在的雪隆分會，有了根，會務開始蓬勃發展，志工約四千人，會員也超過十二萬。
