國際扶輪3522地區東昇扶青社遠赴菲律賓Makati地區與姐妹社國際扶輪3830地區Makati United扶青社及3830地區進行國際文化交流例會

本次運用清明連假期間,東昇扶青社由社長Elvis率隊遠赴菲律賓與 Makati United扶青姐妹社及所屬3830地區進行傳統天燈文化交流及飲食介紹,彼此建立深厚的友誼關係,達成跨國文化交融的目標。

活動由主持人Maica以生動活潑的方式開場,除了介紹3522地區貴賓及3830地區與會人員外,現場另懸掛雙方國旗與歌頌兩國國歌,彰顯對這場國際例會的重視程度;首先開場以三段式英語、國語及菲律賓語的韻律動作進行破冰,讓溫雅的台灣人與熱情的菲律賓人互相認識,共同發揮扶青宗旨「落實超我服務」及「增進友誼與國際觀」。

接續由東昇扶青社長Elvis介紹傳統燈籠與天燈的文化。傳統燈籠方面,除了介紹燈籠的歷史演進,也提到燈籠所代表的不同意涵。天燈部分,在台灣通常很多人會到平溪放天燈,一群人一同施放天燈,寓意是透過撰寫祝福語跟上天祈求願望成真,邀請在場的扶青社員共同創造屬於自己獨一無二的天燈;這次Elvis帶領大家創作天燈吊飾,以顏色區分願望,紅色代表健康與平安、黃色代表財富跟成功、粉紅色是愛和快樂,而白色寓意智慧,讓大家透過腦筋激盪與創意巧思設計自己的天燈及想寫下的祝福,彩繪出最有特色的作品。

主持人Maica與社長Elvis各別採訪每一位菲律賓社員,過程中發現各式各樣的特殊圖案,例如寶可夢、球類圖騰、英文格言、中文字體、花朵、閃電等等,從第一句「everyone pay attention 」引起大家的笑聲,然後委婉道出自己許下的願望,包括財富、家人身體健康、友誼長存等,期待未來更加美好。此外,菲律賓扶青社也採訪前來交流的台灣扶青成員,詢問對於菲律賓的想像及希望得到的收穫,強化台灣與菲律賓之間的連結。

進入活動後半場,Makati扶青社社長Jover透過菲律賓特色飲食文化Boodle fight逐一介紹菲律賓傳統美食,包含sisig、adobo、daho 等等,而東昇扶青PP William更遠從台灣帶來珍珠,現場搭配成為知名的台灣小吃珍珠奶茶,以飲食進行文化交流,活動流程期間菲律賓扶青社也和東昇扶青社成員進行文化與扶青知識分享,讓本次例會更認識彼此的文化與進行交流。

活動尾聲3830地區DRR Nico Dela Cruz邀請大家共同舞動身體,一起錄製Shake Shake影片,擺動身體營造歡樂美好氣氛,而東昇扶青社長Elvis、PP William,3830 DRR Nico及Makati United社長Kyle也發表對於本次文化例會交流的感想,並且有致與伴手禮及手寫板的環節,為本次例會劃下一個完美的句點。
 
Rotaract Club of Taipei Sunrise (District 3522) ,along with Rotary Club of Taipei Sunrise, traveled to the Philippines to hold an international cultural exchange fellowship with its sister club, Rotaract Club of Makati United (District 3830) and the District 3830.

During the Tomb Sweeping Festival holiday, Rotaract Club of Taipei Sunrise , led by President Elvis, co-hosted the international fellowship with District 3830 to introduce sky lantern culture and local cuisine to the Filipino Rotaract clubs. This event was co-organized and held by 6 Rotaract clubs, including Changebringer, Kalilayan Makati Ayala Triangle, Makati, Makati United, Parola and Taipei Sunrise club, and participating clubs totaled 12 Rotaract clubs. This fostered a strong friendship and achieved the goal of cross-cultural integration.

The event was opened by host Maica in a lively and engaging manner. Besides introducing the distinguished guests from District 3522 and District 3830, the Taiwanese and Filipino flags were displayed, highlighting the importance on this international meeting. The opening ceremony began with rhythmic movements in English, Mandarin, and Tagalog, encouraging gentle Taiwanese and enthusiastic Filipinos to get to know each other and jointly uphold the mission of the Rotaract Development Foundation: "Implementing Superior Service" and "Enhancing Friendship and International Perspective."

Subsequently, Elvis, president of the Taipei Sunrise Rotaract Club, introduced the cultures of tradition lanterns and sky lanterns. For the traditional lantern, Elvis illustrated about the history and progress of traditional lanterns and mentioned specific meanings for lanterns in recent times. As for the sky lanterns, Elvis said that in Taiwan, many people often release sky lanterns in Pingxi and release them in groups, symbolizing writing blessings and prayer for wishes to come true. The president Elvis then invited participants to create their own unique sky lanterns. Elvis led everyone in creating lantern decorations, writing their wishes, and using colors to beautify their lanterns. Participants also used colors to display different meanings: red for health and peace, yellow for wealth and success, pink for love and happiness, and white for wisdom. This lantern-making process encouraged everyone to brainstorm and utilize their creativities to create their most distinct works.

Host Maica and President Elvis each interviewed Filipino members, who discovered various unique patterns such as Pokémon, ball symbols, English proverbs, Chinese characters, flowers, and lightning bolts. The first phrase, "Everyone pay attention," elicited laughter, and the following wishes from Filipino Rotaractors subtly expressed their wishes for wealth, family health, and lasting friendships, all looking forward to a brighter future.

As the event moved into its second half, Jover, President of the Rotaract Club of Makati, introduced a variety of traditional Filipino dishes through the lens of "Boodle Fight", a unique local dining culture. The menu featured iconic delicacies such as sisig, adobo, and daho. Complementing the feast, PP William from the Rotaract Club of Taipei Sunrise specially brought boba all the way from Taiwan, creating the world-renowned Taiwanese bubble milk tea on-site. This culinary exchange served as a delicious bridge between the two nations. Throughout the session, Rotaractors from the two countries and three districts shared insights into their respective cultures and Rotaract knowledge, driving a deeper mutual understanding.

To conclude the meeting, District 3830 DRR Nico Dela Cruz invited everyone to get on their feet for a fun "Shake Shake" video recording challenge, filling the room with joy and energy. Finally, Taipei Sunrise Rotaract club president Elvis and past president William, along with DRR Nico and Makati United Rotaract club president Kyle, shared their reflections on this cultural exchange fellowship. The event ended on a perfect note with the exchange of souvenirs and handwritten boards, symbolizing a successful and meaningful collaboration.
