The donation for Japan

Dear Fans / Customers of Formosa T-house,

The fund raising program for Japan which was hold by Formosa T-house was ended yesterday. We are grateful to have the great support from you! The disaster like the earthquake happened in Japan could happen in other countries as well. We live on the same global, we are brothers and sisters and should help eath other.

Taiwan has the lower GDP than Japan (actually "a lot of lower GDP" -- said by one friend of us), but we were/are willing to help because of human nature. After the earthquake, there were a lot of donations from Taiwanese sending to the related organizations in Taiwan and then passed the donations/goods to Japan. And we, Formosa T-house, also gave our donation to the Red Cross in Taipei today. We donated it by cash and brought to the Red Cross in person just because we hoped that the Red Cross could receive the donation with a whole number. (The donations will be deducted the transfer fee or service charges by finance organizations for always.)

↑ (The donation is under the Chinese company title of Formosa T-house and designated the usage to Japan. The total amount is NT 10,000.)

During the time of this progam we processed, a few of customers ordered "gift packages" which were not on the list of this fund raising program, but we decided to donate it equally. At the end, we made the whole number and donated NT10,000 (about 250 Euro) to the Red Cross in Taipei this afternoon, on Mar. 31, as we promised!

May God takes care of all the people died in the disaster in Japan and bless all the people alive!

Love & Peace

Formosa T-house Co. Ltd.

Taiwan has a long historical connection with Japan. Many of aged Taiwanese can still speak Japanese now. For tea, it's same. During the time when Japan governed Taiwan, the tea business has been developed to the worldwide successfully with a beautiful name: Formosa Oolong Tea.

12 years ago, here we had a horrible earthquake 921 and had a lot of help from all over the world. The Japanese rescue team members and their dogs arrived to Nantou County in Taiwan, the most damaged area, in 2 days! It made Nantou County to be different and flourishing nowadays.

The earthquake happened last week in Japan was too disastrous and it made the people whom alive heartbreaking. As a business having the strong rescources from Nantou County and even from the whole Taiwan island, we Formosa T-house would also like to do something for Japan.
