TAINAN, Taiwan—Tainan City Councilor Zeng Xiujuan attended Shen Yun Performing Arts New York Company’s performance at Tainan Municipal Cultural Center along with her husband, Chen Chunan, Director of Tainan City government’s Tourism Bureau. After seeing the performance, Ms. Zeng said, “The benevolence, kindness and beauty showcased by Shen Yun are what modern society is lacking and what is diminishing nowadays.”
Though Zeng Xiujuan has watched Shen Yun’s performance twice in the past, upon hearing that Shen Yun’s program this year contained a Taiwanese Amei dance, she couldn’t wait to see the performance. She said, “Shen Yun’s costumes, music and dance as a whole are what have been selected. They are very appealing and pleasant to eyes, and can make people feel very relaxed and comfortable.”
She mentioned that she was really touched by the truthfulness and compassion implied in the program, especially the connotation of the program The Dafa Practitioner’s Magical Encounter. She said, “Through the program, more people are able to know the truth of the persecution against Falun Gong. Falun Gong is promoting the message of compassion.”
Zeng Xiujuan added, “Shen Yun’s performance conveyed the 5,000-year Chinese history, the essence of benevolence and kindness, as well as the principles of truthfulness, compassion and tolerance.”
Her husband, Mr. Chen Junan, Director of Tainan City Government’s Tourism Bureau, was very pleased to share what he thought of the Shen Yun performance. He said that while he still vividly remembered Shen Yun’s program last year, he enjoyed this year’s all-new program. He noted that he was especially impressed with the programs of How the Monkey King Came to Be and Joyful Little Monks, as both of them were very interesting and enjoyable.
He further noted that it is the good fortune of the people in Tainan that Shen Yun can perform here, and he looked forward to seeing the performance again.
