Good article of the week: It was Taiwanese who sold the Taiwanese

Good afternoon, everyone has read so many discussions about gender with ZOZO, and back to reality, will you wonder how to live under the new gender order? Especially after having children, can we really practice equal rights in the family? Next Thursday, I will invite Kang Tingyu and Huang Zhebin to talk to each other, listen to the voices of the male and female characters, and see how they adapt slowly and evolve into good modern parents/good partners!

【Taiwan】It was Taiwanese who sold Taiwanese

• Reporter- Trafficked Taiwanese reveal the cannibalistic trap under the Taiwan-Cambodia fraud industry chain

For the first time in history, Taiwanese have become the main target victims of human trafficking. The transnational and illegal nature of recent Cambodian fraudulent trafficking cases makes rescue operations, law enforcement bans, and tracking reports very difficult. The team of reporters broke through the barrier and not only wrote the stories of the six victims, but also interviewed the observations of stakeholders such as former gang members and people who had engaged in fraud, uncovering the intertwining of black and white and the mixture of truth and falsehood behind the scenes, and also highlighted that it is not just greed for money , stupid people can be deceived, and everyone can be a victim. Please don't forget that when you and I read this, there are at least a thousand Taiwanese who are imprisoned in the dark and dark deception park in Sihanoukville, waiting for the day they will be rescued.

【China】Growing like moss

• Reporter- Zhao Sile/Between Social Animals and Lying Ping: The Stubborn Life of Chinese Folks
• (English version) The China NGO Project - Nevertheless, Chinese Civil Society Persisted

Not wanting to kneel as a social animal, unable to stand up to earn dignity, and not allowed to lie down and give up, this is a reflection of the current state of mind of many Chinese young people, but it is also the feeling of Chinese civil society. From the beginning of the 21st century to the present, Chinese NGOs have grown from budding, flourished, and then come under full control. In fact, it is the result of the CCP government's purposeful implementation of its agenda, not the will of a single leader. Zhao Sile, a commentator studying in the United States, has been concerned about the situation of Chinese NGOs for many years. His observations are both microscopic and macroscopic, and he clearly shows how the interaction of the international community, the power of science and technology, and the domestic political agenda affect the ebb and flow of civic power.

【Hong Kong】The fragrance of lotus is no longer

• Hong Kong Legacy – Lin Heung House closed
• Orange News- Centennial Lianxianglou suddenly announced the completion of the film "In the Mood for Love", which opened a move here

Following the Treasure Boat, the nearly 100-year-old teahouse Lianxianglou has also announced its closure. Lianxianglou has settled in Hong Kong from Guangzhou since 1927, and later became the representative of old-fashioned Cantonese tea drinking. Many movies were filmed here, full of friends and guests. The scramble for seats and the small dining environment also impresses travelers. After several struggles in operation in recent years, the figure of Lianxianglou finally remains only in Hong Kong's memory.

【Herstory】Taiwan-Afghan Cultural Bridge

• Commonwealth Magazine - Ouyang Wenjin, the first Taiwanese-British academician in a century: Taiwanese need self-confidence, not to swallow

Ouyang Wenjin, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is the only Chinese face in many academic fields such as Arabic literature and comparative literature. She is proficient in Chinese, Taiwanese, Arabic and English, allowing her to wander in the diverse and prosperous world literature and discover wonderful cultures that no one has ever seen. But back in the real world, as a Chinese woman, her multiple minority identities also made her face discrimination and exclusion all her life. Let's take a look at Ouyang Wenjin's unique story of being strong and flexible.

[Birth of an idea] Picked up in the book

• Central News Agency- Librarians in the United States collect and return books and leave small things in life with a smile in their hearts
• Auckland Libraries - "What's Found in the Books" Online Exhibition

Do you use bookmarks? Or is it the same as walking, stuffing whatever you get into the book? A librarian in California in the United States was struggling to find the owners of many "temporary bookmarks", so he had an idea to make them into an exhibition, everyone can imagine the scene when people read from the many cards, photos, notes, and graffiti. As the number of people reading paper books decreases, it may be increasingly difficult to see this situation! Come and browse the website.

【Community Discussion】Imitation and Discrimination

Last week, Carrefour Taiwan collaborated with Youtuber "Ahan Po Video" to shoot a video featuring the new Vietnamese resident character "Nuan Yuejiao" imitated by Ahan as the protagonist. Carrefour immediately took down the advertisements, believing that the film involved discrimination. However, the incident sparked discussions from all walks of life. Some people think that Ruan Yuejiao's image is positive and cute, and Ah Han also claims that he has no intention of discriminating; some people think that the mainstream society's imitation of minority characteristics may cause harm even if it is unintentional.

Go Go has selected several relatively complete discussion articles from different angles to get more inspiration together.

"Mama's bag/just a little space left/enough for myself/I live cramped/makes most of the space for you/I hide and cry/in the tiniest pocket/cry all the bags Wet" - "Mother's Bag", You Shuxun

This poem is about women who have to limit themselves when raising children, and the hardships of life make mothers have nowhere to hide. In Li Xinlun's "So You Don't Want Anything" is about marriage, but it also shows that women unknowingly compress and fold in marriage until they realize that they have been swallowed up by the word "we". However, the frank remarks are also curious. After the writer uncovers the reality of marriage, how will he continue to live with his family beside him?
