2015.11.19 Country Report for IYDU Members

The second day of the IYDU event started with the speech of the chairman, Jason, American.

 We prayed for the lives lost in Paris attack, and later on, the country report. Sonny and I presented our country about Cross-Strait relations. We had prepared a PPT for our presentation but unfortunately they didn’t provide a projector in the conference room. Anyone who needed to present didn’t have to go to the front, just sat on the chair and used the microphone on the table then spoke. I was not too surprised to present it this way since Tony had given us the mental preparation so that we knew we had to be flexible to tackle any challenges. Although sonny and I didn’t sit next to each other, we still made it. Our content was to present the history from 1949, when Chiang Kai-Shek was defeated by Mao and his troop retreated to Taiwan, to the youth vision toward future. We made them better understand the situation and some of them also asked us the result about Ma-Xi meeting, the historic meeting between Taiwan and China, it paved the way for the future if the next president wants to meet with China leader, it can be more efficient. 

In the afternoon, we were divided into three groups, discussing terrorist, TTIP and Ukraine crisis. CSU party will hold their two-day event from tomorrow.
