Donations from Taiwan, also known as Formosa, help Ukrainians staying in neighboring countries.
A one-month campaign to raise funds from the Taiwanese (Formosan) public to help Ukrainian refugees sheltering in the Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Slovakia was recently held. At a news conference, the Minister of Foreign Affairs (MOFA), His Excellency Joseph Wu, announced that his government would donate US$1 million dollars to each of the countries to provide relief aid to fleeing Ukrainian citizens. Also, 2,000 volunteers gathered 650 tons of commodities, including clothes and medicine, which were sent to Poland and Slovakia. The MOFA further reported previous donations of over US$14 million to relief organizations in Poland, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Lithuania. Additionally, the government has sent US$8 million to Kyiv and Ukrainian medical institutions. Taiwan (Formosa) is a Shining World Leadership Award for Compassion recipient. Our sincere accolades, Taiwan (Formosa), for your noble generosity. May the grace of the Divine bless the displaced people of Ukraine and hear their earnest prayers. Supreme Master Ching Hai: “Gratefully present the Shining World Leadership Award for Unconditional Love to Taiwan (Formosa) with high esteem, praises and gratitude for your generosity and noble spirit, helping our fellow world citizens in real need, inflicted by brutal war in Ukraine. May all Heavens protect Taiwan (Formosa) and the Ukrainians with Grace and Loving embrace.”
Approximately 500 UK species could be protected if less meat eaten by Britons.
United Kingdom-based non-profit the Food Foundation, dedicated to promoting a sustainable and healthy diet for all, published a new report in April 2022 predicting that by reducing red meat intake by 5.5 grams and replacing it with a handful of vegetables each day, as many as 536 species could increase their habitable areas by more than 10%. The report projects that under such a scenario, 27% of the land currently used for raising animal-people for food could be utilized to foster biodiversity. However, a failure to address effective land use could result in 626 species losing habitable areas given the increasing severity of climate change. Thank you, the Food Foundation, for this paper that demonstrates the tremendous harms of meat consumption. In God’s infinite Light, may all soon turn vegan for good. Vegan: Heaven cannot wait 2 welcome u with all love, bliss, n glory.
Up next, city of Los Angeles, USA to spend US$3 billion for housing homeless. We’ll just take a little time to thank the pharmaceutical delivery drivers who transport medical supplies and drugs to healthcare providers. We’ll be right back with more giving news on Supreme Master Television.
Hi, generous viewers! I am Peter, a vegan nobleman from the Peacock kingdom. If we just tune in with the harmony of the Universe, we’ll hear the gentle words of love: all beings are one, following a life of compassion. This is what I’ve deeply realized. I would like to share with you a handy tip. It is important you always take the time to read the instructions that accompany any item you’ve purchased, whether the directions for putting together a new toy for your child or the label on a cleanser used for cleaning your home. For example, the majority of cleaners don’t work immediately because they need time for their ingredients to do their job of breaking up grime. After you give it the appropriate amount of time, the dirt can easily be wiped away. Just taking 30 seconds to read the directions instead of spending an additional 30 minutes of scrubbing is definitely a more efficient use of your time! Thank you for tuning in and love you a lot for Being Veg and Going Green 2 Save the Planet thus save the world! Now for the weather around the globe.
Los Angeles commits to sheltering homeless citizens.
The city of Los Angeles, USA, will invest up to US$3 billion until 2027 to provide beds for 14,000 to 16,000 people out of the 41,000 homeless residents in the city, according to the terms of a proposed court settlement. In addition, sufficient shelters will be created to accommodate 60% of the individuals currently living without homes in each City Council district. The settlement, which is awaiting council approval, is the result of a federal lawsuit launched in 2020 by the L.A. Alliance for Human Rights, to ensure the city and county properly support homeless individuals in the very difficult circumstances they face. Los Angeles is a laureate of two Shining World Leadership Awards for Compassion and a Shining World Super Loving Care Leadership Award. We applaud this notable agreement, city of Los Angeles and L.A. Alliance for Human Rights. May every Los Angeles resident have the basic necessities, including safe, clean and secure accommodations, in the comfort of the Providence.
Biodegradable baby diapers complete successful trial in New South Wales (NSW), Australia.
The Bega Valley Shire Council provided compostable nappies to 50 local families as part of a test program in 2019. Made from biodegradable materials with a reusable fabric band, the used diapers were processed at the local Food Organics and Garden Organics composting facility instead of being disposed of in a landfill like the approximately five million disposable diapers used in Australia every day. These nappies, made by Tasmania-based company Eenee, are a time-saving, environmentally friendly alternative to reusable cloth diapers that require washing and drying. The results of the successful trial received conditional approval from the NSW Environment Protection Authority and has attracted interest from manufacturers worldwide. Congratulations, Bega Valley Shire Council and Eenee, on your test program’s positive outcome. In Divine guidance, may your pioneering work inspire more industries to create sustainable products for an eco-conscious world.
Heroic man in Netherlands saves tourists in a sinking minibus.
A vehicle carrying nine people plunged into an Amsterdam canal, when the driver was unsuccessfully attempting to park. A video taken by a local in a nearby building shows the brave man jumping into the water and forcing the front door open. Some of the trapped occupants swam out as others climbed through the windows on the other side of the van. A nearby riverboat also came to help the passengers out of the cold water. Divers from emergency services searched the vehicle to ensure it was clear. All nine people made it out safely, although two of them were taken to the hospital for treatment of minor injuries. Bravo, all involved, in this valiant rescue. In God’s watchful Gaze, may such acts of courage be applauded, as we seek to protect all in danger. Go ahead n make war: as if u r not hated enough by all the people already.
Coming up, research partnership to advance plant-based food innovation in Singapore. We pray to Heaven that all the mothers-to-be have peace and proper access to medical facilities, when giving birth to their child.

Organizations collaborate to advance plant-based food innovation in Singapore.
The Singapore Institute of Technology and Agrocorp International, a global agricultural supply chain company, have recently partnered to develop high-quality plant-based foods. The research program combines science and technology to enhance the plant protein extraction processes and make them greener, as well as improve their quality, yield and capability. One of the technologies used is the Pulsed Electric Field, in which high voltage electric pulses make plant cell membranes permeable to extract their proteins. The results of the research will enable Agrocorp to produce more nutritious, cost-effective, sustainable and clean label ingredients. In 2021, the two entities successfully launched a variety of plant-based products under the HerbYvore brand and have new items such as plant-based cheddar and mozzarella in their innovation pipeline. What exciting news, Singapore Institute of Technology and Agrocorp International, regarding your new research frontier in plant-based food. In Celestial unity, may all food companies focus on developing affordable and nutritious vegan foods for the masses.
American city takes steps to protect migrating salamander-people.
The city of Marquette in Michigan has taken measures to safeguard the blue-spotted salamander-persons that reside in its Presque Isle Park. Every year, the gorgeous amphibians migrate from the safety of the forest grounds to their breeding ponds. Unfortunately, this yearly migration across a dark, busy road at night proves fatal for many hundreds of them. It concerned Eli Bieri so deeply, a student at Northern Michigan University at the time, that he succeeded in getting the city to implement a partial road closure in 2020, and fatalities dropped from hundreds to just a few. With this proof of success, the city has continued to keep the blue-spotted salamander-folk’s path free of all vehicles from 8 pm until 8 am every day, during their migration season that ended in mid-April. We share our gratitude for the precious blue-spotted salamander-people’s continued safeguarding by the kind Marquette residents. May all our treasured co-inhabitants always be sheltered, in Heaven’s immense love.
Want to soar happily like a bird? Then listen closely. Here’s an original joke from our Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai entitled, “God Chosen.”
In a Jewish kindergarten, the teacher was trying to explain to the children that God would like all of them to be good and obedient to the Ten Commandments. And the class seemed to pay attention well. Except one. Jakob kept looking out of the window, his mind wandered somewhere else!
“Jakob, please tell me, what kind of children God would like to choose to be in Heaven with Hirm?”
“God doesn’t like children. God likes juice, maybe orange juice.”
“What makes you say that?”
“Our Rabbi said that juice (JEWS) is God’s chosen one.”

And now we have a heartline from Hui-Ping in China:
Greetings, Beloved Master and Supreme Master TV team, Master’s greatness cannot be praised even with the most perfect language of the Universe. The Highest Lord of the Universe has transformed Her Loving Power of grand Mercy and Compassion into countless Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and has been reborn in this mundane world as enlightened Masters life after life to liberate sentient beings from the sea of bitterness. I’m so honored to be born and live on the Earth this time with the Highest Lord and enjoy Her grand Love, which I’m so grateful for and will never forget. In order to deliver sentient beings from suffering, Beloved Master has always been struggling in critical junctures of life and death. Throughout the years, Master has been saving and liberating myriads of beings, be it Asura or hell-beings, humans, animal-people, and invisible beings, to the eternal Heaven.
Master is mercifully shouldering and absorbing the heavy karma of sentient beings. Despite the inner torment and indescribable illness, She keeps working and working, without rest. She asks for nothing in return from disciples, and would feel comforted even if just one person understands what She has been doing. Even Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the ten directions couldn’t bear to see how Master has been sacrificing Herself, and shed tears. I’m infinitely grateful to Master for Her devotion and sacrifice for disciples and the whole humankind. At this critical moment of the Earth, there are abnormal changes of terrains in many countries, such as a great number of sinkholes, big or small, appearing for unknown reasons, warning that the surface of the Earth has started to crumble. As disciples, we have to introspect, repent, and meditate as diligently as possible, exert our spirit of devotion to help whoever is in need, and keep praying that our fellow humans would open their hearts to adopt the compassionate vegan diet. Only through doing so will we be able to create truly everlasting peace on Earth. Wishing that our Respected and Beloved Master, under the protection of Heavenly Godses, will be safe and in good health, smoothly accomplish Her universal plan and successfully save the Earth. Hui-Ping from China
Insightful Hui-Ping, Your insights and gratitude for the inexpressibly treasured gift of our Beloved Master’s mission resonate in our own hearts. While we cannot possibly comprehend the sacrifices She has made to save us and our world, we, too, are immeasurably grateful for Master’s immense Love that touches each and every one of our lives. Wishing you and the gallant Chinese people boundless fortune and harmony, Supreme Master TV team
P.S. Master has a heartening reply for you: “Mindful Hui-Ping, so touched and grateful I am for your kind wishes on my behalf and for your devotion. As you know, each soul that can be uplifted from ignorance is precious. While we rejoice in the awakening of individuals, we also pray that all souls awaken. Continue your diligent practice. Together, we and like-minded individuals will do our best to manifest Heaven on Earth. May Buddha bless you and the magnificent Chinese people evermore.”
“Animal flesh eating is rejected by Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and disciples. If a person eats animal flesh out of shamelessness, he or she will not be able to cultivate a wholesome sense of what is appropriate.” ~ Mahaparinirvana Sutra (Buddhism)
