  "Bear Love: New Residents Express Affection with Painted Bears"

  When new residents arrive in Taiwan, they face differences in environment, language, culture, and diet. At such times, support and encouragement from family are crucial. Additionally, participating in educational programs is an excellent way to increase adaptability. On the 21st, the Taichung City First Service Station of the National Immigration Agency invited multicultural instructors Luo Hui and Yan Longxian to share their experiences with new residents, encouraging them to participate more in empowerment courses, embrace different cultures, and lead participants in creating personalized painted bears, symbolizing affection.https://news.immigration.gov.tw/EasyPack/Detail/b036fb64-59d1-47c0-a9ee-c9a9afd4ad19?lang=ENLuo Hui, from Sichuan, expressed that since coming to Taiwan, she has participated in various empowerment courses and made many Taiwanese friends. Her passion for learning led her not only to qualify as a multicultural instructor for new residents but also to obtain a level C chef certification. Using food as a medium, she has introduced Sichuan's cultural characteristics to more people. Recently, she and her son participated in the National Immigration Agency's 10th Dream Building Project and are currently touring with a taiko drum performance, showcasing foreign cultures in diverse ways. Luo encourages fellow new residents to participate in various types of courses, enhance their skills in multiple aspects, bravely pursue their dreams, and live a more fulfilling life.Another multicultural instructor, Yan Longxian, led participants in creating uniquely painted bears using acrylic paints, decorating them with different colors. Yan gave the participants a task to create a bear for their significant others. As painted bears are relatively uncommon, the participants found the experience refreshing. Abby from the Philippines mentioned feeling nervous initially about painting but appreciated Yan's encouragement throughout. She emphasized that the heartfelt effort put into the unique keychain gift was priceless. Abby's husband jokingly remarked that his wife's creation was undoubtedly the most beautiful because it was a one-of-a-kind gift, bringing her special joy.https://news.immigration.gov.tw/EasyPack/Detail/454d4ff8-72de-472f-aac2-633b40c0df28?lang=ENMulticultural instructor Yan Longxian, second from right, led participants in creating painted bears.
