Students from Taiwan's NCKU service learning in Singapore

Ten student volunteers for service learning from National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), Tainan, Taiwan, travelled to Singapore on January 21 to carry out elder care and to familiarise with the concept of "Happy Elderly," which has been encouraged in Singapore for years. "We appreciated the timely aid from the people in Singapore for the victims of Typhoon Morakot in Taiwan," said Chao-Huang Chu, the teacher who headed the voluntary team, "and in return, we'd like to offer a helpful hand for the needed service in Singapore." Chu said, "Students from SMU came to NCKU for a service-learning program last year and at that time we had panned this project to Singapore."
