20110419.jpgTo promote Taiwan’s soft power on global stage and feed back to the society are the few responsibilities of the entrepreneurs in Tzu Chi International Humanitarian Association. Among those issues, the Eco-friendly clothing which is made out of recycled plastic bottles has gained international attention. World well-known DISCOVERY channel crews came here today at Tzu Chi Naihu recycling station to record the making process of the Eco-friendly clothing.

As the photographer busy videoing the process, the assistant behind him adjusts the microphone position, there is one foreign friend beside them focused looking at the monitor – she is the DISCOVERY program producer from international popular science channel. It is to introduce the Green Power industry in Taipei, she discovered the Eco-friendly clothing by Daai Technology co. Ltd. is very special and interesting story, therefore the crew is here at the recycling station to take some scenes.

Kate Siney, producer from ‘DISCOVER’ program said :’I choose Daai Technology because its continuity of doing the works that is eco-friendly to the environment and it is the best example in Taipei.’

Kate is respectfully inspired by neat works done by the volunteers contributed their hours to sorting the recycle plastic bottles by colours and piled them into stacks.

DISCOVERY channel program producer Kate Siney said:”I was very impressed to see there are many volunteer workers here, although Taipei is a metropolitan city with many people moving in and out, that shows everyone is concerned about our environment.’

Tzu Chi’s recycling work is well-known by lots of people, now the international media press see it too, hopefully the spirit and dedication to recycling work contributed by volunteers can spread out to everyone in the world.

Project Manager of Daai Technology Lee Dingnan said: ’Our volunteers have expressed the humanitarian culture sprite of unconditional love, from this interview which has combined the two (recycling and humanitarian culture sprite of unconditional love), through DISCOVERY channel which passes on our story to our overseas friends.’

Through the lens of DISCOVERY channel, allows more people to discover the humanities and environmental protection works by Tzu Chi, and also encourage welcome everyone to practice this clear and simple life style of recycling at our daily basis.
