巨大集團 羅祥安前執行長
Giant Group Former CEO Anthony Lo

管校長，羅副校長，各位貴賓，畢業生的家長跟朋友們，還有今天最重要的2021年臺大的畢業生，大家早安、大家好！

首先恭喜你們，今天從全世界最優秀大學之一的臺灣大學畢業了！
在過去幾年，在管校長，以「大學教改」和「國際化」的理念，率領全體師生的努力之下，臺大在全世界的能見度，和各項排名，都有顯著的進步，也讓身為校友的我們倍感光榮。

是不是我們大家一起鼓掌，給自己鼓勵一下好不好！

你們今天剛剛畢業，但是你們已經創造了臺大一項新的紀錄：第一次，沒有傳統畢業典禮的畢業生。這將是你們人生一個非常特別的回憶，也預表了你們未來將會有與眾不同的表現，和非凡的成就。

現在的世界，局勢是在東方跟西方的勢力，彼此對抗而動盪不安。而全世界的經濟活動，也因為科技的突破性創新，而受到很大的影響。不盡理想的、不盡公平的全球化，也將逐漸地變成 全球在地化。而COVID-19肆虐全球的結果，使得臺灣跟全世界，大家的生活型態、社會的結構、經濟活動的節奏都被打亂了，而必須要加以全面的整理跟重新的架構。這當然是一個危機，但是更是一個絕好的機會。所以，將你們迎面而來的，是無數的創新的機會，以及冒險卻令人興奮的全新挑戰。

因為臺灣，這是第一次跟全世界各個國家，同步的站在一個嶄新的共同起跑點上面。所以我要恭喜你們，你們躬逢其會，將要進入一個充滿希望、嶄新的時代。

我是1969年從臺大畢業的，所以我想今天就以我畢業之後的50多年，人生的一些學習和體會，來跟諸位分享，給諸位作個參考。

當我大學畢業的時候，我滿懷抱負，迫不及待地想要大展身手，我當時進入臺灣最大的貿易公司工作，但是我發現我所學的很多東西，只有一些國際貿易的實務跟英文有用，至於其他我所學習到的經營管理的很多知識，恐怕都要等到10年、20年之後，如果我有幸當上高級主管才能派上用場。

更諷刺的是，我是商學系畢業的，但是工作兩年後，我發現我真的不喜歡做商人，我也不喜歡做生意，我有興趣的是做事業。

後來，幸好我有聆聽我心裡面的微弱的聲音，決定踏進自行車業，放棄掉台北最好的貿易公司的金飯碗，而去參加在大甲一個只有38個人的小公司，來追求我的夢想。

那時候許多人認為我腦筋有問題，頭殼壞去，但現在回顧回來，我當時是做了人生一個非常好的決定。

創業的過程飽受艱辛，但是我也學到了很多寶貴的經驗：我首先學到的，是在做事之前，必須要先學做人。

人必須要誠信踏實，不能自私自利，而要利他共好。

要隨時心存感恩，尊重、關切別人。要熱愛這個世界，並且要了解到一個人的能力是有限的，而必須要去建立互信、互助的人際關係；要融入群體、要發揮團隊的精神。

在做事方面，一定要以正面積極的態度，認真努力去工作。 而且不要怕失敗，要勇於接受新的挑戰。因為如果有失敗了，那只是代表說你又更靠近成功一步了。要作中學，學中作，要虛心好奇的終身學習，開拓挑戰、追求卓越。

在這裡，我想要送給大家一個很特別的畢業禮物，就是兩個「成功的錦囊」。
第一個錦囊：不管你做什麼工作，不論你職務的高低，永遠都要站在顧客的立場，來為他們設想，還能做什麼，讓他們能夠得到更多的創新價值。

第二個錦囊：無論作什麼工作，不管你職務的高低，永遠都要站在經營者的角度來為公司設想，要做什麼，才能讓公司更健康，永續經營跟發展。

既使你們把我後面講的很多東西都忘記了，沒關係，但是這個畢業禮物你們一定要記得帶回去，因為這些「同理心」的兩個錦囊，在未來會給你們帶來意想不到的祝福！

其次我體會到，名跟利都是副產品。正產品是你成為什麼樣的人，成就什麼樣的事。當正產品是對的時候，名跟利都自然會來。

所以我鼓勵大家在找工作的時候，不要太計較開始的薪水和待遇。因為事實上，一個新人，在前面三年是很難有大的貢獻的，反過來只是公司發薪水來給你培訓而已。所以選擇一個有意義的行業，找一家你可以學習進步的好公司，這才是重要的。

第三，我學習到 知識不等於智慧。諸位都學有專精，有很多寶貴的知識，但這些知識必須要實際去做才能夠產生經驗，而累積的時候會有不同經驗的反省、學習、跟體會，尤其是從那些失敗的經 驗，才能夠漸漸地凝結成有用的智慧。
我的成長過程分成三段，開始我是一個「I」型的人，我擁有一些經營管理的基本的能力。後來因為工作的需要和我的好奇心，我漸漸地學習到技術開發、製造生產、品牌推廣、全球經營、以及行銷、服務等等寶貴的經驗，這樣漸漸地，我就形成一個「T」型的一個跨界的人才。但是到了我真正找到公司未來的使命跟方向，並且把它跟我的人生目標結合在一起，熱情的、積極去推動的時候，那時候我終於成為一個「十字架」型的一個領導者。

當公司發展得比較穩定之後，我就面臨要如何來替公司規劃願景、使命、定位，跟長期策略。在這個階段，我有一些新的體會：首先，你必須要能夠畫出一個「黃金正三角形」，正三角形是最穩定的，上面是戰略，中間是戰術，下面是戰鬥。先要有正確的戰略，才能衍伸出有效的戰術，再根據這個戰術去貫徹戰鬥的執行。換言之，戰略就是做對的事情，戰術就是對的方法，戰鬥就是用對的方法去把事情做對做好，並且不斷地去持續改善。

想要能夠思考出長期的戰略，就必須要有洞察力。

我很喜歡看地球儀，就是那種在一個架子上面，有一個可以轉動的地球模型。當你把地球轉動的時候，你看到上面每一個地方、每一個國家，它的地理位置、它的自然生態，以及你思考它的歷史的演變跟它的發展，這樣子你就能夠得出一個整體的，跟全方位的一個概念。

在思考長期戰略的時候，很不容易得出一個有突破性的一個創見，它的原因往往是因為「當局者迷」的關係。

所以當我考慮長期戰略的時候，我會把自己設想，好像從一個人造衛星上面，來觀看一個轉動的地球。以宇宙格局的高度，以全球視野的廣度，以歷史演進的長度，這樣子你就能夠以一個「旁觀者清」的姿態和角度，來正面、反面深入思考，這樣子你就可能得到一個突破性的一個解答。「世界的捷安特」跟「全球在地化」的品牌經營—這樣子的策略、願景就是這樣產生的。

另外一種洞察力，是如何推出給人們有創新價值的產品跟服務。這就要時時地站在人文跟科技的十字路口，仔細觀察它們的變化，然後活用科技的進步，為人文潛在的需求，適時地提供最佳的解決方案。捷安特的Cycling世界，就是用這種方法，不斷的推出創新價值的產品。

我們在經營上也有發展出一個特別的理念，那就是「不求第一，要作惟一」。全世界的人這麼多，但沒有兩個人的指紋是一樣的， 所以每一個人都是獨一無二、都是惟一的。可見當上帝造每一個人的時候，祂都有衪特別的計劃，而且也把成功所需要的能力跟要素，已經放在你的心中，等待你取用。所以每一個人不應該只是模仿別人，或者是按照別人的期望來生活，而應該要找出並且發揮自己的天賦，真正做自己，成為惟一，才能夠活出精采的生命。

企業也是一樣，不能隨波逐流，必須要找出什麼才是對的，什麼是合適你的，什麼才是有意義、對這個世界有貢獻的，這個才是惟一。當你精益求精，努力的想要成為惟一的時侯，你才能夠找到真正正確的目標，以及永續生存的價值。如果事事都想為第一，那麼你可能去追求很多不切實際的目標，而被你無法承受的巨大壓力所摧毀。或者，因為不擇手段，最後走上一些錯誤的道路。
在長期追求惟一的過程當中，我也得到兩個重要的體會：當你決心做一件對的事情，而且不屈不撓，勇敢堅持奮鬥的時候，全宇宙的力量都會起來幫助你。另外，把一件有意義的事情，用生命的力量把它作好，你就有可能改變這個世界！

我鼓勵你們，聆聽你們內心深處的微小的聲音，讓它引導你們，去尋找到你們的天賦，了解你們的命定。

不求第一，要作惟一。做你真正的自己，成為惟一。活出你精彩的生命，享受你幸福的人生！

很多人說，生長在臺灣的人，一輩子裡面一定要完成三項挑戰：登玉山、泳渡日月潭、還有騎自行車環島。我覺得這非常有道理。所以我建議大家在畢業以後，在去當兵、就業之前，不妨參加一個自行車環島的旅行團，用九天的時間，仔細的去體會、欣賞寶島臺灣的美好，用自行車的輪胎去親吻，這塊生你長你的美麗大地，就當作是送給你自己的一個畢業禮物吧！

那教授們跟家長們，可能會想說，啊！太可惜了，我畢業的時候沒有騎自行車環島，我現在已經五六十歲了。沒關係，你這個年紀正好來從事人生的壯遊。
我們臺大的校長－管校長，在今年的一月份，就勇敢的完成他夢寐以求的自行車環島的壯遊。我們給管爺一個掌聲好不好？

有人認為臺灣很小、沒有前途，真的是這樣嗎？世界經濟論壇每年都要把全世界的國家的實力做一個調查跟排名。讓我們來看一下臺灣的排名。全世界有235個國家，就面積來講，我們排名第137；就人口來講，第57；就經濟體來講，第21；就整體競爭力來講，排名第11；而創新力，臺灣排名第4。沒錯，臺灣的確不大，但是我們很強，我們可以很有前途！

可預見的，未來的世界將會成為美、歐、亞三區鼎力的這個新局面。就像三個圓圈，各自都以自己的利益為優先，並且彼此長期的競爭、對抗和抵制，但是同時又不得不相互的維持一些必要的連結。而在每一個圈裡面，它將持續的有很多劇烈的改變，就像一個暴風圈一樣。而這三個暴風圈連結在一起，就形成一個所謂完全風暴PERFECT STORM。

最近經濟學人雜誌，把臺灣當作封面，稱臺灣為地球上最危險的地方，但同時又是科技業最關鍵的地方。我個人倒認為，未來臺灣可能是處在一個最有利的地位，就在那三個暴風圈中間的那個颱風眼，也就是這三個圈圈彼此連結交會的中心點。這個地方看起來好像危險，其實是最安全、最有利、又是最關鍵的地方。

當三個暴風圈無可避免的，參與在一個長期的競爭、對抗、跟抵制－這樣一個零和的賽局裡面。那臺灣並不屬於任何一個圈圈，也不需要去參與這些競爭、對抗跟抵制。而可以去想說，我可以在這個關鍵的中心點，替這個世界來提供什麼樣子的創新價值的貢獻。

臺灣過去50年的努力累積了很多技術開發、製造管理、金融資本，社會資源，以及民主法治體制，這些稀有而寶貴的實力。而且如果以全世界作為舞台，那麼，能夠精通中文跟英文、能夠深切的了解東方西方的文化；有專業，又能跨界，謙卑而不自卑，自信而不自大的臺灣人，可能是全世界最優秀的人才。

未來無法被預測，但是可以被創造！30年前，有誰能夠預測到說臺灣會產生世界級的台積電跟捷安特？

台積電秉持著作惟一的理念，以全球晶圓代工的戰略，厚植實力，打造了優質高效的供應鏈，把臺灣變成一個科技島。以臺灣為核心，轉動引領全世界的半導體市場。

捷安特也秉持著作惟一的理念，以世界的捷安特，全球在地化的品牌戰略，帶領A-Team把臺灣變成全世界高級車的中心，又積極的推動Cycling的新文化，把臺灣發展成一個自行車島，以臺灣為核心，轉動引領全世界自行車的市場。
在這裡我也期許我們臺大，也能夠以作惟一這樣子的理念，轉動引領世界，變成全世界最優秀人才培養的最佳搖籃。

未來的50年，臺灣將迎來前所未有最大的機運！所以臺灣是不是應該要脫離過去單純競爭的心態，而來積極的謀求長期的未來生存之道，或者更進一步要問自己：臺灣可以為世界貢獻些什麼？臺灣不應該只是消極的「根留臺灣」，而應該更主動積極的「放眼全球、立足亞太、深根臺灣」。

臺灣過去的50年，那是一個非常艱辛跟特別的階段。很慶幸的，臺灣在那個階段裡面，是屬於勝利的這一組。

現在是應該到了必須要了解過去、深入現在、策劃未來，這個重要關鍵的時刻。要如何的以宇宙格局的高度、以全球視野的廣度、以及歷史演進的長度，衡外情，量己力，來為臺灣重新的定位，重新畫一個正確的戰略、戰術、戰鬥的黃金三角形。讓臺灣能夠真正發揮自己的長處，能夠打造創新價值的優勢，成為惟一、做Only One！要能夠創造一個更安全、更廣闊、更興盛－全新的藍海。臺灣必須要成為世界的好公民，繼續的為全世界做更多、更好的貢獻！
2021的畢業生們，在你們當中有未來國家的領導人、有全球企業的創造者、有在社會各行各業、方方面面的核心人才，所以臺灣未來50年的未來，就掌握在你們手中了。

最後，我想用一位著名科學家的名言來作結尾： Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving. 人生就像騎自行車，要保持你平衡最好的方法，就是繼續不斷地向前進。

你知道這是誰的名言嗎？ 沒錯，就是愛因斯坦！

2021的畢業生們，請你騎上你人生的自行車，勇敢的向前邁進，去開創你獨一無二、精彩無比的新生命跟未來。再一次，恭喜你們，並且祝福你們每一位，將來都能夠有健康、幸福、精彩跟有意義的人生！
謝謝！

==============================

.
President Kuan, Executive Vice President Luo, Distinguished guests, family, friends, and most importantly, the graduating class of 2021, good morning!

First of all, congratulations! Today, you are graduating from one of the best universities in the world – National Taiwan University!

Over the last few years, President Kuan led the university forward with his vision of “educational reform” and internationalization”. Together with all the faculty and students, NTU has made significant progress in both ranking and global visibility, making us, alumni, extremely proud.

I think we deserve to give ourselves a round of applause!

You are the graduating class of 2021 and already, you have set a new record for NTU: For the first time, there will not be a traditional graduation ceremony. Let this be a very special memory of your life and a sign of the difference you will make in your future with extraordinary achievements.

The world is now in a volatile state where the East and the West are confronting each other. The world’s economic activities are also greatly affected by the breakthrough and innovations in technology. The less-than-ideal and less-than fair globalization will gradually become global localization. And as a result of COVID-19, Taiwan and the rest of the world’s lifestyle, social structure, and economy have been disrupted, and must be comprehensively reorganized and restructured. This is certainly a crisis, but in the midst of every crisis, lies great opportunity. So, what lies before you are countless opportunities for innovation, and exciting new challenges.

Because, for the first time, Taiwan is standing with the rest of the world on a new race-track. Therefore, I would like to congratulate you, you are entering a new era full of hope.

I graduated from NTU in 1969. It has been more than 50 years and today, I would like to share some of my life experiences and insights.

When I graduated from college, I was filled with ambition. I couldn’t wait to make my mark. I joined one of the largest trading companies in Taiwan, where I quickly realized the only materials I learned in school that came in handy are a little bit of international trade practices and English. Much of what I had learned about business management would only be relevant 10 or 20 years down the road, if I was lucky enough to become a senior executive.

What’s even more ironic is that I graduated with a degree in business, but after working for 2 years, I realize I really don’t like being a businessman, and I don’t like doing business. What I am actually interested in is building an enterprise.

Fortunately, I chose to listen to the faint voice in my heart and decided to enter the bicycle industry. I left my position at the best trading company in Taipei to join a small company with only 38 employees in Dajia to pursue my dream.

At the time, many people thought I must’ve broken my skull and gone crazy, but looking back, I have made a great decision in my life.

The process of starting my own enterprise has been very difficult, but I have learned many valuable lessons. The first thing I learned is that before you can do anything else, you have to learn to be a person of good character.

We must be honest, down to earth, selfless, self-serving, and altruistic for the common good.

Be grateful, respectful and caring at all times. To love the world and to understand that one person’s ability is limited and that is necessary to build interpersonal relationships of mutual trust and support; to be part of a group and to play as a team.

When it comes to work, you must work hard with a positive attitude. And don’t be afraid to fail, be brave enough to accept new challenges. Because every time you fail, it just means you are one step closer to success. Learning is an active process. We learn by doing. We must stay open-minded and curious, aspiring to lifelong learning; to explore challenges and pursue excellence.

Here I would like to give everyone a special graduation gift, which are my two tips for success:
First, always put yourself in the customer’s shoes, regardless of what you’re doing or what kind of job title you hold. Think for them, think about what else you can do to create more value for the customers.

Second, regardless of what you’re doing or what kind of job title you hold, always think about the company from the proprietor’s point of view; what can we do to build a healthier company that’s sustainable.

Even if you are going to forget everything I say later, that’ ok. Just remember to take your graduation gift at heart, because these two tips on “empathy “are sure to bring you unexpected blessings in the future!

Later on, I realized that fame and money are merely byproducts. The real product is you, what kind of person you have become and what have you achieved. When the real product is identified, fame and money will come naturally.

So I encourage you, when you look for a job, don’t be too concerned about the starting salary and benefits. Because as a matter of fact, as a newcomer, it is very difficult to make a big contribution in the first three years, so really the company is paying to give you training instead. So choose a meaningful industry and find a good company where you can improve and grow, that’s what’s important.

Thirdly, I learned that knowledge is not the same as wisdom. All of you have learned a lot and have a lot of valuable knowledge, but this knowledge must be practiced in order to produce experience, and in the process of accumulation, there will be different experiences of reflection, learning and empathy, especially from failure, slowly and surely all these experiences will be condensed into useful wisdom.

My personal development can be divided into three stages. I began as a I-shaped person with some basic skills in business management. Later on, due to my job and curiosity, I gained respected experience in technology development, manufacturing, branding, global marketing, and service and thus gradually becoming a T-shape multidisciplinary professional.

However, when I combined the future mission and direction of the company with my life goals, promoting it enthusiastically and actively, that is when I finally became a X-shape transdisciplinary leader.

Once the company became more stable, I was faced with the challenge of planning the vision, mission, positioning, and long-term strategy for the company. At this stage, I had some new insights.

First, you must be able to draw a “golden triangle”, an equilateral triangle is the most stable shape with strategy on top, tactics in the middle, and operations at the bottom. In other words, the strategy is to do the right thing, the tactics is the using the right methods, and operations is using the right methods to excel on doing the right things while constantly improving them.

To develop long-term strategies, it is necessary to have insight.

I enjoy looking at the globe, yes, the spherical model of Earth that sits on a stand and can be rotated. When you rotate the globe, you can see every place and country on it, its geographical location, its natural ecology, and you can think about its historical evolution and development, so that you can come up with an overall comprehensive concept.

When thinking about long-term strategy, it is not easy to come up with a groundbreaking idea, because “men are often blind in their own cause”

Therefore, when I think about long-term strategy, I imagine myself as if I were looking at a rotating Earth from a man-made satellite. With the height of the universe, the breadth of global vision and the length of historical evolution, you will be able think about it from the perspective of an observer, and then you may have a breakthrough. This is how the strategy and vision of “GIANT for the World” and “glocalization” brand management came about.

Another kind of insight is how to introduce the products and services to create additional value to people. This requires standing at the crossroads of humanity and technology, observing their changes carefully, and then using technological advances to provide the best solutions for the potential needs of humanity in a timely manner. This is how GIANT’s Cycling World continues to introduce innovative values to its products.

We have also developed a special philosophy in our business, which is “don’t be the first one, be the only one”. There are so many people in the world, but no two people share the same fingerprints, making each person unique and one of a kind. God created each person with purpose and has gifted us with the abilities and elements needed for success. All of which is in your heart, waiting for you to take them. Therefore, we should not just follow each other’s footstep or live under the expectations of someone else. Instead, we should find and give reigns to our talents, to truly be ourselves, to become the only one and live a brilliant life.

The same applies to businesses, you can’t just go with the flow, we must find what is right and suitable and what is meaningful and contributive to the world, this is what it means to be the only one. When you strive for excellence and strive to be the only one, you will find the right goals and the value of sustainability. If you try to be first in everything, you may pursue many unrealistic goals and either be destroyed by unbearable pressure or resort to doing whatever it takes, and end up on the wrong path.

I have learned two important lessons in my long quest to be the “only one”. When you are determined to do the right thing and you are unyielding and persistent in your struggle, the power of the universe will rise up and help you. In addition, if you do something meaningful and do it well with the power of life, you may change the world.

I urge you to listen to the small voice deep within you and let it guide you to find your talents and understand your destiny.

Do not seek to be the first but to be the only. Be true to yourself and be the only one. Live your life to the fullest and enjoy your life to the fullest!

Many people say that growing up in Taiwan, you must complete three challenges in your lifetime: climb to the top of Jade Mountain, swim across Sun Moon Lake, and ride a bike around the island. I think this is very true. Therefore, I suggest that after graduation, before you go to the military or get a job, you might as well join a bicycle tour around the island and spend nine days to carefully experience and appreciate the beauty of Taiwan. As a graduation gift to yourself, let the tires kiss the beautiful land where you were born and raised.

All the professors and parents must be thinking in regret, “Ah! Too bad! I didn’t ride my bike around the island when I graduated and now I’m already in my 50s and 60s…” But that’s okay! You are actually at the perfect age to start your adventurous life.

Our President of NTU, President Kuan bravely completed his dream bike tour around the island in January this year. Let’s give President Kuan a round of applause!

Some people think that Taiwan is small and has no future. Every year, the World Economic Forum conducts a survey and ranking of the strength of countries around the world. Let’s take a look at Taiwan’s ranking. There are 235 countries in the world and we rank 137th in terms of landmass, 57th in terms of population, 21st in terms of economy, 11th in terms of overall competitiveness, and 4th in terms of innovation. It’s true that Taiwan is not big, but we are strong and we have a promising future.

In the foreseeable future there will become a new situation in which the United States, Europe and Asia will be the three focal regions. Just like three circles, each of which prioritizes its own interests and is in long-term competition, confrontation and resistance, but at the same time has to maintain some necessary links with each other. And in each circle, drastic changes will be endless, just like a storm circle. These three storm circles are linked together to form a so-called PERFECT STORM.

The Economist magazine recently featured Taiwan on its cover, calling it the most dangerous place on earth, but at the same time the most critical place for the technology industry. Personally, I think that Taiwan may be in the most favorable position in the future, right in the middle of the three storm circles, the eye of the typhoon, which is the center point where these three circles are connected. This place seems dangerous, but in fact it is the safest, most favorable, and most critical place.

When the three storm circles are inevitably involved in a long-term competition, confrontation, and boycott - a zero-sum game. Taiwan does not belong to any of these circles, nor does it need to participate in these competitions, confrontations, and boycotts. Instead, situated in this critical position, I should begin to think about what kind of innovative value I can provide to the world.

Taiwan's efforts over the past 50 years have accumulated many rare and valuable strengths in technology development, manufacturing management, financial capital, social resources, and the democratic rule of law system. If the world is our stage, Taiwanese people who are proficient in Chinese and English, who have a deep understanding of Eastern and Western cultures, who are professional, who can cross borders, who are humble but not inferior, and who are confident but not arrogant, may be the best talents in the world.

The future cannot be predicted, but it can be created! 30 years ago, who could have predicted that Taiwan would produce globally renowned TSMC and GIANT?
TSMC is committed to the concept of being the only one, and has built up its strengths with its global foundry strategy, creating a high-quality and efficient supply chain and turning Taiwan into a technology island. With Taiwan as the core, TSMC is leading the worldwide semiconductor market.

GIANT also upholds the concept of "Be the only one" and leads the A-Team to turn Taiwan into the center of the world's premium bikes with the brand strategy of globalization and localization, and actively promotes the new culture of cycling, developing Taiwan into a cycling island and leading the world's cycling market with Taiwan as the core.

Here I also hope that we, NTU, can also lead the world with the concept of being the only one, and become the best cradle for the cultivation of the best talents in the world.

In the next 50 years, Taiwan will have the greatest opportunity ever! Therefore, Taiwan should get rid of the simple competitive mentality of the past and actively seek the long-term survival of the future, or go even further and ask itself: What can Taiwan contribute to the world? Taiwan should not just "secure Taiwan" in a conservative way, but should be more proactive with global outlook and establish a foothold in the Asia Pacific.

The last 50 years, for Taiwan, has been very difficult and significant. Fortunately, Taiwan pulled through and came out as one of the winners.

Now is the crucial moment to understand the past, delve into the present, and plan for the future. We must take the height of the universe, the breadth of our global vision, and the length of historical evolution, weigh the external situation, and measure our own strengths to reposition Taiwan and draw the golden triangle of strategy, tactics, and operations. Taiwan should be able to give full play to its strengths, create innovative value, and become the only one! Taiwan must become a good citizen of the world and continue to make more and better contributions to the world!

Graduates of 2021, among you are the future leaders of the country, the creators of global enterprises, and the core talents in all walks of life, the future is in your hands.
Finally, I would like to conclude with a quote from a famous scientist: Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.

Do you know who this quote belongs to? That's right, Einstein!

Graduates of 2021, please get ready for your life adventure, get on your bikes and peddle courageously forward to create your own unique and exciting future. Again, congratulations and best wishes to each and every one of you for a healthy, happy, and meaningful life!

Thank you!

【學習新加坡繁榮的精神】(English writing below)
LEARN THE SPIRIT BEHIND SINGAPORE'S PROSPERITY

如果妳你讀完這篇文章，依然覺得風水是無稽之談，那妳你真的是太迷信了。

我曾說過，因為很多元素，我無法見每個需要我的人。

也有的人，很想見我，但無法付得起我的諮詢費。

我當然也遇到一些人，不是沒有錢，但一毛不拔成性，只想拿免費的東西，連謝謝也不屑說一聲。😄

無論如何，我在臉書上，盡量分享一些可以幫助大家改命立命的方法和心態。能不能受用，就看你自己有多長進了。

我沒有見過這位女讀者，但她從2017年起就已追蹤我的臉書。

她曾參與我的贈善書活動數次，每一次收到書後，也有向我答謝。這位女讀者，照著我在3月30日寫的《閉塞心靈的風水》去做，寫了封感謝函給我。

貼文連結：https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10157483362244614&set=pb.733924613.-2207520000.1555264407.&type=3&theater

感謝她允許我分享她的私訊，來利益我的讀者。

怎樣的人，就有怎樣的命運。怎樣的命運，就會生出怎樣的風水。

要改變命運、增旺家運，從居家風水著手，可以很快看到成果。

我們人是感官的動物。我們的心情，很容易被我們的環境影響。看到美麗的東西， 眼睛自然會亮起來，心情也變得漂亮。看到醜陋、凌亂的家，眉頭一皺，內心的不滿也會增添自己的壓力。

心情好時，運比較容易旺起來。

學學新加坡吧！為什麼一個曾經不起眼的骯髒小國能夠坐享繁榮的經濟？

有一部份的原因，來自於我們整潔的街道，及不斷的更新。李光耀先生當年非常注重我們新加坡的乾淨和條理，不是沒有風水的原因。

當時的阿爾伯特·魏森梅斯博士，新加坡的主要經濟顧問，向政府提議把臭氣熏天的新加坡河直接改為一個排污系統，但李光耀總理和其他官員都不肯認輸。他還打賭，新加坡河是不可能有水生生物的。1977年，當時的李光耀總理下令清理新加坡河和加冷河，勢必要讓河水變清澈，還向魏森梅斯先生保證有一天，他會看到新加坡河也能釣出魚。這計劃花了十年的時間，耗資新幣1億7000萬，影響四千多個人。

1993年12月21日，在魏森梅斯博士最後一次來新加坡時，從河中成功釣上一條石斑魚。大夥們還笑說，一定是有蛙人在釣魚線綁上那條魚，好保存新加坡的顏面。

告訴你，這河可是新加坡經濟的命脈。如果它一直污穢不堪，新加坡根本不可能繁榮，更不可能在國際舞台上有一席之地。我國人民也會有很多人不務正業。

新加坡卓越的城市規劃，在中國興起了幾十年的「學習新加坡熱」。被中國媒體譽為新加坡規劃之父的劉太格博士，在接受香港記者訪問時說過，新加坡規劃的巨大訣竅，就是採用西方棋盤的模式。

“西方棋盤就是黑白相間，黑的我們就當作高密度的住宅或是寫字樓，白的就是公園、廣場、不能太高的商場和體育場所等等。所以感覺沒那麼壓抑，經常能看到天空。”

這席話當中，蘊藏了堪輿學裡的陰陽數、五行平衡學以及人類和大自然互融的重要學問。如果忽略了這些基礎，只會一昧擺放風水吉祥物，那根本就是不稱職的風水。

新加坡能夠成功，原因不離「規劃」、「遠見」和「膽識」。

單憑遠見和膽識，沒有規劃，不可能永久得到成功。

我曾到過47個世界各地的城市，新加坡有著非常穩定的磁場，是少數國家擁有的，大家都應該珍惜這樣的一個好風水。妳你居家環境規劃的好，善用家裡的每一個空間，在對的地方給對的人做對的事，裡應外合，妳你就沒必要讓自己太辛苦。

如果懂得仿效新加坡繁榮的秘訣，運用在自己的人生規劃裡，妳你也一樣可以在最短時間內，獲得妳你夢寐以求的成功和快樂。

心靈閉塞，家中風水也會「交通阻塞」。除掉雜物，代表妳你已開始願意接受好運。

但外在的風水，是內心的一個反映。要長久的擁抱好風水，內心的「執念大掃除」才是關鍵。

若妳你不知從何開始，歡迎來詢問我的服務，讓我來為妳你開條「快樂生財」之路。

If after reading this article, you still regard Feng Shui as some nonsensical talk, you are really too superstitious.

I once wrote that due to many factors, I am unable to see everyone who needs me.

There are also people who cannot afford my fees, despite really wanting to meet me.

I have also encountered freeloaders who refuse to spend a single cent, even though they have the money. Some of them are even stingy with their thank-you. 😄

No matter what, whenever I can, I will share my knowledge on my Facebook the methods and mindset to help you transform your Destiny, or even establish a new Destiny.

Whether these are of help to you, will depend on how determined you are to improve yourself.

I have never met this lady reader, but she had been following my Facebook since 2017.

She had participated in several of my book-giving actives and would send me a thank-you message every time after receiving my book.

I wrote a post on 30 March titled "Feng Shui That Closes Up Your Mind". She did what I recommended in the post and wrote me a thank-you message after experiencing positive change.

Thank you for her permission to share her message, for the benefit of my readers.

Everyone gets the Destiny they deserve. Our characters determine the Destiny we get. The same Destiny also give birth to the kind of Feng Shui we get.

To change our destiny, to improve our family luck, start from your home Feng Shui and you will see results fast.

We humans are sensory animals. Our moods are easily influenced by our external environment. When we see pretty things, our eyes wil brighten up and we feel happy. When we see ugliness and messiness in a home, our brows would furrow and the dissatisfaction in our hearts will add on the stress we already have.

In short, a happy state of mind makes it easier to attract good luck.

Learn from Singapore! How can a once inconspicuous and dirty country enjoy such prosperity in a short time?

One big reason comes from our clean streets and the constant renewal going on. Mr Lee Kuan Yew had placed heavy emphasis on the cleanliness and order of our country. And there is a huge Feng Shui reason behind.

At that time, Dr Albert Winsemius, Singapore's economic consultant, proposed to our government to turn the notorious foul-smelling Singapore River into a formal sewage system. But the then Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew and other officials refused to admit defeat. Dr Winsemius even wagered that Singapore River would never be able to sustain life.

In 1977, PM Lee Kuan Yew ordered for the cleaning up of Singapore River and Kallang River. He wanted to have clean waters. A promise was made to Dr Winsemius that he would live to see a fish being fished up from Singapore River. This project took 10 years and cost S$170 million, affecting 4000 over people.

On 21 December 1993, on Dr Winsemius's last visit to Singapore, a garoupa was successfully caught from Singapore River. The group joked that there must be a diver who hooked the fish to the fishing line, so as to save Singapore's face.

Let me tell you, this river is the main economic artery to Singapore's prosperity. If this waterway continues to be plagued with garbage, Singapore will never be prosperous, nor have a foot in the international arena. There will also be many fellow countrymen who hold improper jobs.

The outstanding city planning of Singapore had inspired a learning frenzy among China's officials for the past few decades. Dr Liu Thai Ker, regarded by China's media as the Father of Singapore City Planning, once said in an interview with a Hong Kong reporter, the huge secret to Singapore's urban planning was using the Western chessboard concept.

"On the Western chessboard, you have black squares and white squares; the black squares would be high-rise housing or offices; the white squares would be parks, squares, not-too-tall neighbourhood centres, schools and so on. So the feeling would not be too oppressive, and you can often see the sky."

There is profound Feng Shui knowledge in the words above, that comprises the knowledge of Yin and Yang, the delicate equilibrium between the Five Elements, and the importance of human interaction with Mother Nature. If these basics are neglected, and you only put emphasis on placing "auspicious" ornaments at home, this is nowhere near competent Feng Shui.

Singapore owes its success to namely good planning, foresight and boldness.

Without planning, no success can sustain forever on foresight and guts.

I have travelled to 47 cities all over the world, and Singapore has a very stable energy field, which is rare in many countries. We should all cherish this good Feng Shui component. With this as a foundation, when you can plan your home environment well, utilise every space well, let the right person do the right thing in the right space, there is no need for you to suffer so much.

If you can emulate Singapore's recipe to prosperity in the planning of your own life, you can also achieve your desired success and happiness in the shortest time possible.

When the mind is jammed, the home Feng Shui will also experience "traffic congestion". Decluttering means that you are beginning to accept the inflow of good luck.

But external Feng Shui is always a reflection of your mind. To embrace good Feng Shui forever, you have to start spring cleaning your heart from attachments too.

If you have no idea how to start, you are welcome to send me inquires about my services. Let me help you open up the path for you to receive happiness and wealth.

《悄然改變的臉》
The Face That Changes Quietly (English version below)

依稀記得，有首歌是這樣唱的：妳你看，妳你看，月亮的臉偷偷地在改變，月亮的臉偷偷地在改變。其實啊！改變的並不是月亮，而是人的心。有一則禪宗公案，是這樣的。有位禪師與其弟子在室外，禪師突然問其弟子：你仰頭看見什麼？其弟子仰了頭看了一下，回曰：有雲幾朵。禪師接著問：那雲在做什麼？其弟子回曰：雲在飄動。禪師聞後，就朝其弟子頭上棒打一下。這弟子痛得呱呱叫，一臉茫然地不知錯在何處。接著禪師又問其弟子，那現在雲還在飄動嗎？其弟子胸有成竹地回曰，現在雲已飄過。哪知依然逃不過，其師父犀利的棒打。哈！哈！哈！

上段引述了禪宗公案，是要教導大家不可隨境轉。凡是隨境轉的，就是迷者，迷者就是凡夫，就是俗子凡夫。俗子就會有苦惱，有苦惱自然就不會常樂我淨。相由心生，想要有張美麗、和悅、莊嚴的面貌，但看妳你自個的心，是否有真善。不祇要有真善哦！真善還得加上善念相繼哦！吾可以跟妳你打包票，妳你若真實的，依吾所教的行持下去，不久的將來，必會有人「難以抗拒妳你容顏」的。

吾，玳瑚師父，發現所有來見吾的客人，或是吾的門生及學生，在約一小時內，臉上的氣色，會由暗轉為亮，甚至還紅潤哦！而這發現已多年矣。近期有位「大媽」跟吾學佛，吾就向她提及，凡是接近吾的人，臉上的氣色，會越來越好看一事，她事前當然不置可否。于是，吾就請她做個試驗。這試驗是請她來見吾之前，先用鏡子打量自己一番，然後在與吾見面後的約一小時左右，再重新打量自己的氣色，跟著吾就立刻問她是否滿意與吾見了面的氣色？她回回滿意。事實上，在她之後，吾還有在做「臨牀實驗」。

至於未有因緣接近吾的眾生，吾在此傳授妳你，一個非常簡單加有效的方法，改善妳你容顏。這簡單的方法就是，每天多唸佛號，如南無阿彌陀佛、南無本師釋迦牟尼佛、南無觀世音菩薩、南無地藏王菩薩，等等。天天虔心恭敬地唸，但不可在臥房，不可在牀上唸，端坐蒲團，端坐椅上合掌地唸。當有一天，妳你偶然打量自己於境上時，妳你會非常歡喜境中的妳你，因妳你的臉，已悄然的改變。

I vaguely remembered the lyrics of a Chinese song that go something like this, "The face of the moon is secretly changing, the face of the moon is secretly changing." Fact is, the face of the moon is not changing, it is the heart of man that changes. There is this Zen koan that goes like this: A Zen Master was with his disciple outdoors when the Master suddenly asked his disciple, "What do you see when you raise your head?"

"Just a few clouds", the disciple replied after looking upwards.

"What are the clouds doing?", the Master continued.

"The clouds are floating", came the answer.

Upon hearing it, the Master knocked on the disciple's head with a stick, and had him withering in pain, wondering what he did wrong.

"Are the clouds still floating?", the Master went on to ask.

This disciple replied confidently that the clouds had passed. But he still could not escape the stick beating from his Master! Ha ha ha!

The above koan tells us not to allow our mind to be influenced by our surroundings. Those who fall into this trap are yet to be awaken, and still a mortal being. A mortal will experience afflictions, and can never enjoy pure bliss.

All things with form stems from the heart. If you always wish for a beautiful,amiable and regal-looking face, look deep into your heart to see if you are truly kind. And it must be thoughts of kindness in every moment. If you follow my teachings 100% consistently, I can guarantee that in the near future, you will have a face which others will find it hard to resist.

I discovered that those who came to see me, be it my clients or my students, experienced a marked improvement in their facial aura within an hour of being with me. The aura changes from dim to radiant, with rosiness. I had realised this situation many years ago.

In recent months, a middle-aged mother was learning the Dharma from me and I told her about this phenomenon. She did not fully believe me, thus I invited her to do an experiment.

That is, every time before she meets me, she shall go and have a good look at her face in the mirror. She will repeat the same action after an hour or so after being with me. I would ask her if she is satisfied with her facial aura after seeing me. It is a resounding yes every single time. I did more of such experiments with others before her as well.

For those sentient beings with whom I have yet to have the affinity, allow me to impart a very easy and effective technique to improve your looks. This simple method is to recite the Buddha's name every day, like Namo Amithaba, Namo Shakyamuni Buddha, Namo Guan Shi Yin Pu Sa ( Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva ), Namo Di Zang Wang Pu Sa ( Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva) , etc. Recite it with full sincerity and respect. Do not do it in your bedroom or on your bed. Sit upright on a meditation cushion or a chair with both your palms together. One fine day, when you chance upon your reflection in the mirror, you will like what you see, because your face has been quietly changing all these while.
