✅OVERALL RATING: 10/10
🔴MY REVIEW: I like the brand PANDORA derived from the brand's positioning as an "affordable luxury brand". The original intention of this brand was to encourage girls to be themselves and show their true self in their own way. How interesting! The advantage of PANDORA is that you can buy it according to your own budget. Even if you only buy a necklace, you can wear it with a simple and elegant unique style. Another special feature of PANDORA is that each bracelet can be matched and interchanged with a variety of gold or silver charms. Everyone's collocation is unique. Speaking of my favorite, it is none other than the Pandora Moments Snake Chain Bracelet. The material is soft and fits the curvature of the wrist better. It is also one of the most classic styles in the brand. I especially like PANDORA charms. Each charm represents a memory and has a special meaning. And you can mix and match according to your own preferences. In my opinion, Pandora is a very story-telling brand, allowing consumers to wear a unique bracelet based on their imagination, and let the bracelet tell our own story. What an incredible thing this is.

How Civic Technology Can Help Stop a Pandemic
🇹🇼Taiwan’s Initial Success Is a Model for the Rest of the World
《Foreign Affairs, FA》是美國最具影響力的國際事務暨外交政策期刊，對於全球外交政治圈，扮演議題倡議者的角色。這個月 20 號，FA 刊登了一篇專文，名為 ＜如何以「公民科技力量」抑制疫情氾濫 − 台灣模式的成功為世界立下典範＞，「台灣模式」（Taiwan Model）四字貫穿全文，分析台灣如何以一個島國，而且是被 WHO 排除在外的小國，結合科技和民間力量，在災情下，比科技領頭大國的美、中還堅毅。
台灣在已知病例中的發病率僅為美國的五分之一。美國的比率還不到被廣泛讚譽的新加坡的十分之一。感染仍可能再次激增，特別是隨著全球傳播使來自世界各地的遊客成為該病毒的媒介。然而，台灣最初取得成功的故事值得分享，這不僅是因為它掌握了遏制當前大流行的經驗教訓，而且還因為它掌握了應對技術和民主緊迫挑戰的廣泛經驗。
台灣的成功在於技術，行動主義和公民參與的融合。台灣是一個小型但技術領先的民主國家，生活在兩岸超級大國的陰影下，近年來，通過使技術對民主的有利而不是不利於人民，台灣發展了世界上最活躍的政治文化之一。這種公民技術文化被證明是該國對新型冠狀病毒的最強免疫反應。
Focusing on the countries that have done worst, however, may be less useful at this point than considering which country has so far done best: Taiwan. Despite being treated by the World Health Organization as part of China, and despite having done far broader testing than the United States (meaning the true rate of infection is far less hidden), Taiwan has only one-fifth the rate of known cases in the United States and less than one-tenth the rate in widely praised Singapore. Infections could yet spike again, especially with the global spread making visitors from around the world vectors of the virus. Yet the story of Taiwan’s initial success is worth sharing not just because of its lessons for containing the present pandemic but also because of its broader lessons about navigating pressing challenges around technology and democracy.
Taiwan’s success has rested on a fusion of technology, activism, and civic participation. A small but technologically cutting-edge democracy, living in the shadow of the superpower across the strait, Taiwan has in recent years developed one of the world’s most vibrant political cultures by making technology work to democracy’s advantage rather than detriment. This culture of civic technology has proved to be the country’s strongest immune response to the new coronavirus.
最具草根性的科技，最有公民意識的防疫
其實在台灣可以看到很多例子都不是由政府籌備，反而是 公、私部門互相合作 發展出來的，最厲害的是，在這些開放式平臺、及公民參與的活動中，並沒有刺激假訊息滋長，大家因為想保護彼此，有相關資訊便會在保護個資的情況下主動提供，這種風氣明顯與歐美當前的恐慌蔓延、或是中國的權威隱匿截然不同。 台灣政府也把面臨到的危機丟出來與社區對話，而非把自己塑造成一種全知者 ，好比唐鳳的所有會議都直接用串流直播。
台灣的訊息傳遞方式，也常常是從民間發起，形成公開透明且 有公民意識的防疫作戰陣線 。史丹佛醫學院報告指出，台灣這次有 124 種「抗疫」方式，迅速掌控疫情。其中很多是以社區倡議、黑客松、和一個名為 vTaiwan 的線上政策交流平台在運作。台灣人雖然分散在不同社區，但是運用通訊軟體 Slack 和 工程協作平台 HackMD 創造出許多佳績。
お久しぶりです♪
お待たせしてしまって、すみませんでした！
アメリカに引っ越して（というか帰国して）ばたばたしていましたm(_ _)m
新しい部屋から、いきものがかりの「SAKURA」の自作英語版を撮ってみました♪
今、日本はちょうど桜が咲いているところなのかな。
日本の桜を思いながら、この曲を歌いました。
気に入っていただけると嬉しいです(^^)/
Enjoy!

Long time no see, YouTube! Sorry for the lull in the last couple of months—I recently
moved and haven't had time to make any videos for a while...
Here is my first video from my new home in the U.S., an English cover of Ikimono-gakari's
SAKURA (meaning "Cherry Blossoms"). For those of you in Japan (or somewhere with
cherry blossoms), they must be just about in bloom right now, aren't they? The blossoms in
Japan were on my mind while I sang this song. I hope you enjoy it :)

さくら ひらひら舞い降りて落ちて
(sakura hirahira mai-orite ochite)
揺れる想いのたけを抱きしめた
(yureru omoi no take wo daki-shimeta)
君と春に願いしあの夢は
(kimi to haru ni negai-shi ano yume wa)
今も見えているよ
(ima mo miete iru yo)
さくら舞い散る
(sakura mai-chiru)
Past the windowpane of the swaying train
Traces of you by the river
On the bridge we crossed together
Colored in spring revelry
Graduation day came and took away
My love so far from this town
The flowers hanging on the boughs
Still hold those memories
But the two of us, we chose two different roads
Separated when spring came to a close
Now the future blooming in all of its glory pushes me to move on
In the train window reflected
Just the same are the cherry blossoms
And deep inside of me, your voice still lingers
Still hear it calling to me
When the cherry blossoms start to flutter down toward my feet
I let all my wavering feelings wash completely over me
Oh, the dreams we dreamt together in the spring will always be
In my heart forever and ever, as the spring begins anew
In the letter I started many times
Got as far as “I’m doing fine”
But I know that little lie will never fool you
Seasons come and go, and before I know
Spring arrives once more in this place
And the flowers bloom like always
Paint the town in vibrant hues
Every day without you that I get through
Brings adulthood closer into view
I wonder if a day will come when I forget everything
Hope you know I truly loved you
As I reach to the cherry blossoms
And everything I feel, the love and heartbreak
Is swallowed up in the spring
When the cherry blossoms start to flutter down toward my feet
I embrace the wavering feelings that are washing over me
Oh, the words so bold you gave me in the spring will always be
In my heart forever and ever, as the flowers flutter away
さくら ひらひら舞い降りて落ちて
(sakura hirahira mai-orite ochite)
揺れる想いのたけを抱きしめた
(yureru omoi no take wo daki-shimeta)
Distant days we dreamt together in the spring so long ago
Disappear up into the blue sky
Now the cherry blossoms start to flutter down toward my feet
As I walk toward the days that wait beyond the spring for me
Holding on so dearly to the dream we vowed that we would seek
In my heart forever and ever
さくら舞い散る
(sakura mai-chiru)
