Some bits of good news, something we’re in desperate need of these days, I suppose, from the Newspapers, translated…
In order to give the children with Downs’s Syndrome a classroom to learn music in, the Daluan Native Restaurant and the singer, Ming-Shyong started a fundraiser yesterday, Ming-Shyong had even made the announcement, that everything he’d earned from his clothing designs from here on out, will go to the cause to help out children with Downs’s Syndrome.

Yesterday, over twenty children with Downs’s Syndrome and their parents, their music instructors gathered for a performance at the Daluan Restaurant in Linkou, and raised the funding, hoped that they are able to raise $120,000N.T. to rent a set place, to teach the children with Downs’s syndrome music.
“The donations from the community will help a lot, but not all children with Downs’s Syndrome receive what they need, sometimes, we hope to earn what we can”, the parents told, that no matter how much compassion came from the outside world, it’s still limited for every children with Downs’s Syndrome, and rather than waiting for the help from someone else, the parents, as well as the children with Downs’s Syndrome need to work hard as well.
Some parents sighed, that as their young took up music, they’d only hoped that the teacher can teach the children only seven notes, but now, seeing how the children are able to perform many songs, “it’d encouraged us greatly!”
The manager of Daluan Restaurant, Je-Ying Chao said, that the children with Downs’s learned the music in their music classrooms, and regularly, they’d gotten involved in the not-for-profit performances, but the music class believed that they can help fight for more resources for the children, and to get them learning other skills and talents too, that was the cause of this fundraiser.
So, despite what these children were born with, they’d still wanted to make their own way, and, comparing to how many able-bodied people who are just, living off of their elders, these children had, made it, to the top.
