I[h{7cThere were no ladders going down the water passage, so Jerry had to go down slowly to the passage, the whole water passage is about 200cm, and one can smell the foul odor at once. Aside from the kids, there are some homeless locals residing down there, and if the old pipes break one day, these kids can be scalded by the water and it can put their lives in danger.When the little girls saw him, they shouted Dao Ming SiJerry Yan also had established with World Vision a [Deng Ta zhi Jia] (Light Tower Family) before, there were at least 15 little girls, age bracket from 7 to 17 years old, some of them were maltreated by their parents, while others were kicked-out of their homes, Jerry said, looking at their ordinary expressions, it¡¦s very hard to believe that they were once wandering along the streets. When Jerry Yan appeared, they became so excited with their big round eyes staring at him, these girls did not call him [Jerry], but they called him [Dao Ming Si].www.nbbbs.com _il9V3}&jF"x6ew_'o&FA$Q K;w~/c@A little girl said that they had a TV Station in Mongolia where she saw [Meteor Garden], but she never knew that his name is [Yan Cheng Xu]. It¡¦s so rare for them to see an artist that everybody grabbed a pen and asked for Jerry¡¦s autograph, Jerry joked and said: "I think if I signed zaizai's name they won't even know at all._
Gave some candies to the kids and played some gamesA side from these, World Vision will also set-up for the kids a [Search Center] and [Entertainment Center] at Wu Lan Ba Tuo. Jerry said, "seeing the kids singing and dancing, even though we utter different languages, but through our eyes we communicate and laugh, I can feel they are very simple."Jerry joined the kindergarten kids, he didn't know where to put his hands when they started, he said: "I was more nervous than they were, I really didn¡' know how to bond with them." When he brought out some cotton candies, then sang and danced with them, he slowly went along with them.There were some kids who still don¡¦t know how to eat the cotton candies, Jerry stared at them as he said: "These candies which are very common in Taiwan, when brought to this place, becomes a treasure, I watch them grab the candies and ate them bit by bitJerry even made himself sound like a kid, laughs at himself as he wanted to hold their temples for check-up, he said, every time he saw a kid, he would aggressively want to package them and take them home, in the middle of this desert, Jerry Yan played Eagle-catching- Chicken game with the kids, he was so high, so he taught the kids how to play Hai Dai Quan (if I¡¦m not mistaken it¡¦s like rock, paper, scissors). As he continued playing with the more matured kids, he rarely became this playful and even said: "You must act effeminate, alright?"Scandal Special Edition is out in Singapore`!Out in Stores Now...Here is roughly what it includes:-10 Songs-2 types of MVs ( in Chinese & Korean which adds up to total 4 MVs)-Their "card" written by "themselves"Jerry helps outTaiwanese heartthrob Jerry Yan has been appointed as the first Asia Child Sponsorship Ambassador for charity organisation World Vision.
He will be the spokesperson for World Vision offices in Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Thailand and Taiwan, helping World Vision to promote its Child Sponsorship Programme.
Jerry Yan is World Vision's first Asia Child Sponsorship Ambassador.Best known for being part of boy band F4, Yan is also known as the star of popular Taiwanese TV series The Hospital (now airing on 8TV).
The first task he undertook upon his new appointment was to visit three Mongolian children sponsored by him and his fan club.
Yan left Taiwan on Oct 24 for the weeklong project visit and met the children at the World Vision Dundgobi Area Development Programme in Mongolia, where he also visited street children and witnessed the plight of those living in extreme poverty.
“I believe by personally meeting the children and experiencing their lives, I will benefit and learn to value what I possess,” said the star, adding that his fan club in Hong Kong is also sponsoring 29 children for five years through World Vision Hong Kong.
After his Mongolia trip, Yan will tour round Asia from early this month till late next month to share his observations from the visit and stories of child sponsorship.
World Vision is a Christian relief, development and advocacy organisation dedicated to working with children, families and communities to overcome poverty and injustice.

Jerry Yan connects love throughout AsiaJerry Yan connects love throughout Asia, making the world so near, Sponsorship and Love in one for [700 yuan a month!] Through the sponsor-a-child program, be a part in giving aid to the story of every child in the world.vd7n?Ac~Coming back to Taiwan with a covered face saying it is due to frostbite and sunburn, everything that Jerry Yan has experienced in Mongolia, stirred up the fans and media at once, what did he really underwent during this trip, is what everybody is anticipating; and during the presscon after coming back for two days, Jerry Yan shows up and shares to the whole world his insights during his stay in Mongolia.,f#F{M8O8s2`p RC2M8dZ)]During this almost-Internationa l Pess Conference, aside from reporters from Taiwan, reporters from Malaysia also broadcast this at the same time. Director of World Vision Taiwan Tu Ming Han states that 400©o000©o000 people in the whole world do not drink fresh water, about 121,000,000 people are deprived from school, 11,000,000 cannot live beyond 5 years old, these figures can be gruesome, and this time by inviting Jerry Yan as the spokesperson in Asia, we are hoping to make more people be aware of the most important factor. Sponsor-a-child campaign is a form of accompanying one child in terms of growth, may it be spiritual, environmental growth and many others. As of now, the whole world has 3,000,000 sponsors who have joined this campaign, hopefully, we could still add 3,500,000 more sponsorship so that more children could be given help. Director Tu expressed that Jerry Yan¡¡Âs move is a true biography, a written book of courage, love and risks; Surely much more people will be aware of it and even be involved with giving care.First time to be a [Father], he felt happy and specialAfter the Press Conference, Jerry Yan shared his experience with sunburn in Mongolia, "In Mongolia, the temperature can go negative 35 degrees, while during day time. As really hot there, I neglected the hot temperature and did not take note how long I was under the heat, and most of the time I was very lazy, but I am fine now, please do not worry about me." Although he's faced with an uncomfortable sunburn, Jerry expressed that he was very happy to be with World Vision in Mongolia, before he went for this trip he already knew what he would encounter, "including the water to be used to wash my face, it would be very cold, but when I saw the child's very ordinary reaction, even if they lack basic needs, they live ordinarily, happily and even share it with you, even if the child doesn't like it, he doesn't tell, in this kind of gesture, I think I saw myself when I used to be that naive and simple." Jerry says, I'm very happy to be able to gather my strength, I believe that more people will be aware how these children need them.
zH8EAside from these, Jerry Yan also shared how to be a father the first time, "I never thought I could be a father one day, the feeling is too immense, I was holding a very happy moment, hoping I could make them happy, but when I went to visit them, it seems like its in a movie or TV, most of them are kids, facing all the hardships, my heart cannot bear to see it, and even told myself to be brave enough in facing my life."
While mentioning this, Jerry even remembered a child from his first visit named Si Ma, the child suffered from imperforated anus, and was even abandoned by her father, letting the child shoulder the body and spiritual difficulty at an early age. Through World Vision¡¡Âs assistance, Si Ma can undergo surgery at Singapore, undergoing a number of major operations, upto this day, Si Ma's condition has received tremendous improvement, her life started to leave the difficulties she has undergone. "It's my first time to see so many scars in one body part, it even happened on a 12-year old girl. When I asked her how would she deal with her father abandoning her, I can see that she doesn't want to speak, that kind of stare, I can still remember it until now; I was wishing I could ask the question in an indirect way, so as not to hurt her feelings even more!"TIWhen asked about Jerry's sponsored child BA Dan, Jerry said: "He is almost similar to me, I really love this kind of feeling, knowing I gave only 700 Yuan, we can have a meal or buy new clothes, but then it could already change a life of one child."Spent the time meeting children at the Vast Desert, I saw my past and futureOpening up another topic, Jerry mentioned that during this trip, he felt he doesn¡¡Ât know how to interact with people, "I'm like a Big Kid, I still have a lot to learn." He remembered a time when he was playing basketball with a kid, "The kids were really short that I'm afraid I could accidentally kick them, and still, I don't know how to play with them. In the end, there were other friends who joined us, seeing them play with those kids, I realized I can carry them on my shoulder and play with them." During this trip he also recalled how he makes some gesture with his family, "I love my mom, but I don't know how to express it, I often blame myself to express how I care for herDuring this trip, Jerry Yan also visited those kids which were sponsored by the fans for almost 5 years, his deepest impression went to Na Lan BAi Ya whose father was diagnosed with liver cancer, while the mother makes handicrafts for living, income can only reach less than 500NT a month which must take care of 3 little girls, "Maybe because I grew from a family of single parent, I can absorb what they're going through, when I knew that their father will not stay long in this world, looking at their kids, when time comes they could end up like me¡", as he talked about it, Jerry's unable to hide his sadness."Personally, I'm a guy who is easily affected with anything, I feel like crying whenever I recall everything that has happened." This time he said, aside from his underwear, everything that he brought with him like goodies, school supplies and shirts were all given to the children, he recalled when he was a kid, every New Year, there is this uncle from Hong Kong who brings Peking Duck to them during his visit, this is one of the best memories he had when he was a kid, "Until now, I would still visit that Uncle, I felt that the kids and I share the same feeling, hoping that this person would always be around, always bringing them a good memory during their childhood."Jerry even expressed, not only in Mongolia, there are more places in the world which need help, he hopes that in the future he can preserve a long-term relationship with World Vision, not only just a spokesperson, but a true worker, "Whatever I can do, I'll try my best to do it." Jerry Yan mentioned that he is very thankful for World Vision Taiwan for giving him a chance to see what the world needs, in the near future, not only he is involved with the Sponsor-a-child program, he also wanted to encourage relatives and friends to join this [Sponsor-a-child Program], "In Mongolia, most of the family can only earn less than 500NT a month, for just 700 yuan, we can give a lot of help for these families."SPOKESPERSON FOR ASIA, SPREADING HIS LOVE AND CAREWorld Vision Taiwan expressed, Virtue will not lead to solidarity, surely it will gain you a neighbor! Aside from Jerry Yan being the spokesperson, the Sponsor-A-Child program has already gained 3,000,000 sponsors, in Taiwan, we would like to thank each host and Taiwan Gu Wang ADSL Ltd. Co. for its strong recommendation for the Sponsor-A-Child program, they have been participating for three years now and even helped in promotions and spreading the program throughout Asia, it also included the backdrops for this Press Conference, etc; GRAND FORMOSA REGENT TAIPEI has also prepared a Christmas-lighting Charity Event, Yahoo Kimo has given a charity webpage and blog for advertisement, CARMEX and other products are also willing to help, Taiwan Fur has sponsored the Mongolian trip¡¡Âs coats, the ones Jerry Yan wore were already up for auction in World Vision¡¡Âs Official Website, bidding has already reached 100,000NT.
Jerry Yan will be the spokesperson for the whole Asia including Taiwan and ten more countries (Mongolia, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, Korea, Philippines, Thailand, India, Hong Kong, etc.) [Sponsor-A-Child Program]'s Spokesperson has already shared his documentary on the life of every Mongolian, this will serve as a call for the rest of Asia, going back to Taiwan, his next stop would be Japan, Jerry expressed: "I hope that there will be more people who would join this program!" Having the same goal with the other 3,000,000 sponsors in the world, Jerry Yan is appealing to every individual, to be able to find 3,500,000 more sponsors, and surpass this Sponsor-A-Child Program together, in order give more kids the help they need.LEARN ENGLISH:TOKYO TRIAL STATEMENTstars: Damian LauKenneth TsangKEN CHUKelly Linshowdate: 2006-9-1 country: chinaLadies and Gentlemen, honorable judges and members of the court, All of the accused joined in a formulation and execution of a plan, a conspiracy whose purpose was to establish Japan's military, political and economic control over the countries within the Pacific and Indian Oceans. In order to achieve this goal, Japan alone or working with other countries of like mind, embarked on a war of aggression, to subjugate all who stood in their way.My prosecution team and I have produced more than enough evidence to prove the participation of the accused in these criminal actions. Throughout the history of civilization, no one has ever seen human nature at such a peak of cruelty and barbarity. Countless people have died horrendous, unthinkable deaths to feed Japan's insatiable appetite for expansion. By their actions, they have challenged human civilization, they have challenged peace and they have challenged the whole world. Their common objective, a criminal objective, was to ensure the domination of Japan's Empire.There is no greater crime than plotting and executing a war of aggression. The security of the world and its people was threatened by this plot and destroyed by this war, the only possible outcome of which is the great suffering the world has faced.Therefore, I, Joseph Keanan, on behalf of my colleagues in the ally prosecution team, solemnly request the honorable judges of the International Military Tribunal for the Far-east to severely punish those responsible for this horrible war of aggression in the name of justice, in the spirit of compassion and in the name of humanity!!!Yan is World Vision's Child AmbassadorTAIWANESE artiste Jerry Yan (who plays Dr Su in popular TV series The Hospital, currently airing on 8TV) has been appointed by eight World Vision offices in Asia as their first Asia Child Sponsorship Ambassador.World Vision is a relief, development and advocacy organisation dedicated to working with children, families and communities to overcome poverty and injustice.According to a Press release, Yan will be the spokesperson for World Vision offices in Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, Thailand and Taiwan, helping the organisation to promote its Child Sponsorship Programme during his ambassadorship.Yan’s first task was to visit three Mongolian children sponsored by him and his fan club.

Prior to his departure at the airport, Yan said: “I believe that by personally meeting the children and experiencing their lives, I will learn to value what I possess.”While in Mongolia, he will also visit street children and witness the plight living in extreme poverty, in an environment where temperatures can drop as low as -40°Celsius in the winter.He will see how World Vision development work in Mongolia is transforming lives through sponsors.Yan revealed that his fan club in Hong Kong is sponsoring 29 children for five years through World Vision Hong Kong.“I was very touched when I found out that one of my fans who showed up at the airport to see me off has been a World Vision child sponsor for 12 years.”For RM600 per child per year, individuals or corporations can sign up as a World Vision child sponsor.

He'll share his experiences in Mongolia and display some heart warming photos. There are plans for Jerry to hold a telephone conference with Malaysia media, and Jerry will then announce the exact dates he will visit Malaysia.White Tower, starring Jerry is currently showed on TV in Malaysia, Jerry's visit will create a fan chasing craze.Jerry Yan, Asian pop star of Taiwan' boy band F4 and lead actor in the popular TV series "Meteor Garden" has been appointed World Vision's first Asia Regional Child Sponsorship Ambassador endorsed by World Vision offices in Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand.In his first inaugural trip as the humanitarian organisation' s Asian Regional Child Sponsorship Ambassador, Jerry will be visiting World Vision supported projects and communities in Mongolia from Oct 24 to 30, 06 under World Vision's Child Sponsorship Programme. He will also be visiting his three sponsored children during the trip.Following Mongolia, Jerry will tour Asia to promote child sponsorship in Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines,Singapore (Nov 29-30, 06) Thailand and Taiwan from November to December 2006.Jerry joins more than 2 million World Vision child sponsors in supporting needy children all around the world.When asked what prompted him to take up this role, he replied:"Becoming a World Vision Child Sponsor has changed me. I had a better understanding of the children living in poverty around this part of the world and the dire circumstances many are living in."Coming from someone who used to work as a part-timer during his 4th to 5th grade in primary school, Jerry could empathise with the economic hardships and struggles many children living in extreme poverty experience.Despite knowing that he will be battering a bitter winter where temperatures can drop to as low as minus six degrees celsius in Mongolia this time of the year, Jerry agreed without hesitation to the visit and remains undaunted and focused on the task ahead, that is to esee for myself, the conditions the children have to bear withh. Remarked Jerry: "I've learnt from World Vision staff that winter temperatures in Mongolia are harsh and can fluctuate to as low as minus 44 degrees. Lots of livestock die from the severe cold and many children therefore have little food to eat, and have no heating at home. Some street children can only get warmth in the underground tunnels where extreme heat of the city's heating system can cause serious injuries and even deaths. Winter is the most difficult time for many Mongolian children.""Many street children in Mongolia are also abused because of the poor economic situation; The reason why they are wandering in the streets is partly because they have no place to stay; They have no other choice but to experience this kind of suffering," he added.Back from being a distinguished guest at Jolin Tsai's concert in Australia, Jerry looks fresh and is looking forward to this trip. In a pre-trip briefing held earlier this week in Taipei, he observed: "I believe this world is still filled with compassionate people who are merely not aware of the ways to give. I hope that through this visit, the people in Asia will have a better awareness of the plight of the poverty-stricken children and extend their hand to help bring hope to these children."In conjunction with the visit, some of Jerry's fan clubs in Asia have collectively sponsored 29 impoverished children through World Vision, five of whom are Mongolian children. The eight World Vision offices will also be posting more information and updates of Jerry Yan's trip to Mongolia on their websites soon.TVBSG news clip (Oct. 24, 2006)Translated by kkla of www.nbbbs.comFenny(F) Narrator (N) Jerry(J) Reporter®F: Please move back a little bit.
