National Cheng Kung University's Million Dollar Award for the Preservation of Taiwanese Language and Culture
In order to promote Taiwanese language, the NCKU Taiwan Language Testing Center has raised NTD 1,000,000 to encourage students and teachers to engage in teaching and researching Taiwanese language, and held the first Taiwanese Language Scholarship Award Ceremony on November 25 at NCKU's Taiwanese Lecture Hall, with four teachers and 19 students receiving the award. This was the first and most rewarding scholarship ceremony for Taiwanese language at a domestic university.
According to Prof. Wi-Vun Chiung, the director of both NCKU Center for Taiwanese Languages Testing and Dept. of Taiwanese Literature, the award’s money was donated by many kind-hearted individuals and organizations. So far, nearly one million NTD has been raised, and in the future, there will be income from project donations every year. On the day of the donation ceremony, many donation representatives attended.
A plaque of appreciation was presented to 近藤綾, the granddaughter of 王育德, by 張復聚, Chairman of the Taiwan Romaji Association, to thank her for following in the footsteps of her grandfather, Yu-Te Wang, in promoting the Taiwanese language and designing pokers in Taiwanese vernacular to promote Romaji.
