这第四十四期的《中华之声》，印证了中华会馆对中华民族在西澳历史上的执着和坚持。历史让我们可以理解民族的过去，更有助于让我们明白自己所在的社会曾经历的变化和发展过程。中华会馆在给华人社区和未来的一代，保存西澳华人历史、文物和文化扮演着举足轻重的角色。

这期纲要不得不提的有西澳州立博物馆首席执行长Alec Coles的独家专访。即将在11月21日正式开幕的这座世界级设计的博物馆，将会给珀斯的旅游业带来一个崭新面貌。想知道西澳博物馆将如何用多媒体科技呈现西澳历史，您可以在它的灵魂人物的采访中略知一二。

这期《中华之声》，也记录了中华会馆在过去一个月积极向西澳的华人社区募款，以帮助国家信托基金会保存修复一件超过120年历史的华人男式外套。2029年将会是第一位华人周满抵达西澳200周年，然而多年来一直没有找到特别好的历史文物来证实华人早期已经在西澳生活。这外套是首件特别重要的西澳华人历史文物。

即使新冠病毒导致许多不确定性，中华会馆也积极筹备着设馆110周年庆，以纪念这些年来为会馆做出贡献的多方人物。但愿在会员、社区人士和商家的支持下，我们可以顺利在疫情日益好转的西澳，好好的庆祝这别具历史意义的庆会。

The Power of History In this 44th issue of Chung Wah Magazine, we would like to affirm Chung Wah Association’s perseverance and dedication to the history of Chinese people in Western Australia. Through history, we can understand our heritage, and understand the changes and developments in the society that we live in. Chung Wah Association plays a vital role in preserving our history, artefacts and culture for our community and our future generations. In this issue, do not miss our exclusive interview with Alec Coles, the Chief Executive Officer of Western Australian Museum. This state-of-the-art museum officially opens on 21 November 2020, adding a brandnew facet to Perth’s tourism industry. To find out more about how the museum uses multimedia technology to illustrate Western Australian history, tune in to our interview with the museum’s key personnel.

This issue also records Chung Wah Association’s active fundraising efforts in helping the National Trust of Australia restore the 120-year-old jacket of a Chinese man. As 2029 will mark the 200th anniversary of the first Chinese’s arrival in Western Australia, no noteworthy artefact has been discovered to evidence our early migration into Western Australia. This jacket will be the first significant artefact in the history of Chinese Western Australians. Despite the uncertainty created by COVID-19, Chung Wah Association is actively preparing for its 110th anniversary celebrations. This commemorates the people who have continuously contributed to our association. As the COVID-19 situation continues to improve in Western Australia, it is our hope to celebrate this historic moment with the support of our members, the community and sponsors.

历史的力量

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE 会长寄语

Dear Members, As we enter spring in the southern hemisphere, our hearts are full of gratitude. We are thankful the Western Australian government took the advice of medical professionals in the throes of the Covid-19 pandemic, which has allowed us to go about our lives freely in this beautiful state. As we enter Phase Five of the easing of restrictions, Chung Wah Association will completely revamp how we operate our activities, classes, and community and elderly services.

The year 2020 marks Chung Wah Association’s 110th anniversary. A committee has been specially set up to organise the celebrations, and we are preparing to publish a commemorative publication, recording the developments over the past 10 years. In addition, we have preserved the commemorative publication published on our 100th anniversary. Members are more than welcome to request a copy. We are also preparing to invite longstanding members who have been involved in the Executive Committee, Life Members, committee of the Council of Elders and volunteers, to celebrate our association’s history and developments, to come on the evening of 20 February 2021. On behalf of Chung Wah Association, I would like to thank Life Member, Dr Simon Lee AO, for his special sponsorship of this celebration. History lies at the heart of any culture. One hundred and ten years ago, our Chinese predecessors in Western Australia united to form Chung Wah Association to fight the unfair treatment of the Chinese people, and to protect each other, as well as the interests and basic rights of the Chinese people. After a century of developments, the Chinese community has become a pivotal pillar of multiculturalism in Western Australia. It has also been recognised by all levels of government, and has become a vital partner in maintaining a multicultural society.

Our Community & Aged Care group has issued instructions in the midst of this pandemic in English, Chinese and Vietnamese, so as to provide our elderly with up-to-date health information. We thank the staff and volunteers for their hard work in providing such services to the elderly. In addition, with regards to our work in cultural heritage, we have actively assisted the National Trust of Australia in fundraising for the restoration of a Chinese man’s jacket dating back more than 120 years. This will be of great use to future research and exhibitions.

Our Executive Committee will continue to uphold the mission of our association; to safeguard the rights of our members, enhance social integration, to unite and serve, and provide improved platforms for communication. We will continue to help members integrate into the West Australian life and contribute to the prosperity of Australia’s multicultural community.

亲爱的中华会馆会员们：

踏入南半球的初春之季，我们心怀感恩。感谢西澳政府听取医疗专家的意见，在疫情阴霾笼罩的2020年，让身在西澳的我们可以在这美丽的地方自由安全地生活。进入第五阶段疫情解禁期，我们会馆的各项活动小组、中华中文学校，以及中华社区及长者服务都重新全面运作。 2020年是中华会馆正式注册成立110周年，我们特别成立 110周年纪念庆祝小组，筹备出版一本纪念刊，记录过去十年的发展历程。此外，我们也保存了100周年庆典时所出版的纪念刊，欢迎会员前来索取。同时，我们正准备邀请过去数十年曾经为中华会馆服务过的并曾经担任理事的老会员，和终身会员，元老会成员，志愿者等，在2021年2月20日晚上欢聚一堂怀缅中华会馆的历史、发展和共同展望未来。我代表中华会馆感谢终身会员李瑞喜博士AO对本次活动的特别赞助。历史是民族的灵魂。110年前，由于当时华人多遭种种不公平对待，旅居西澳的华人前辈团结在一起成立了中华会馆，维护华人的利益和基本权利，互相守护。经过一个世纪的发展，华人社区已经成为西澳多元文化族群中举足轻重的社区，也得到各级政府的认可，成为合作共营多元文化社会的重要伙伴之一。过去几个月，会馆得到了中国驻珀斯总领事馆，中华总商会，方美珍女士，深圳同乡会等个人和团体捐赠的大量的口罩。遵循人道关怀的理念，我们将这些口罩捐给了有需要的社区，包括：陷入疫情重灾区的维多利亚州的人民，反种族歧视活动的示威者以及有需要的社区和慈善结构。

我们的社区与长者服务部在疫情其间发布英文，中文，越南文的说明，向老人家及时提供健康方面的最新信息。感谢员工们的辛勤工作和提供给老人的服务。

此外在文化传承工作上，我们积极协助国家信托基金会（National Trust）呼吁社区募款，开启针对一件超过120年历史的中式男装外套的保存修复工作，以供研究人员使用或用于将来的文物展示。我们理事会将继续秉承会馆的宗旨，在维护会员权益、增强社会包容，团结和服务广大会员，为会员们提供更好的交流平台。继续帮助会员融入主流社会，繁荣澳州多元文化社区贡献一份力量。

Together we will get through this pandemic

我们将共同度过这次疫情 Amidst the second wave of the COVID-19 outbreak in Victoria, the Western Australian Chinese community made concerted efforts to source and donate 50,000 face masks, including 1,000 children’s face masks, to the most vulnerable people in Victoria.

The President of Chung Wah Association, Dr Ting Chen, together with the President of WA Chinese Chamber of Commerce, Mr Khoon Tan, and Chinese community members representing 19 organisations, handed over the masks to Mr Craig Steward, the WA State Director of the Australian Red Cross, on 28 July 2020. Dr Chen said,“We are so sad to read the news about the increased number of COVID-19 cases in Melbourne, we support Victorians against this deadly disease. Through our call for mask donations, within a week, we collected over 50,000

masks from the West Australian Chinese community. We are pleased and grateful for the support of the Australian Red Cross to receive the donations and distribute them to the people in need in Melbourne. Together we will get through this pandemic."

Since Wednesday 22 July 2020, the number of COVID-19 cases in Victoria has soared daily to three digits and the wearing of face masks has become mandatory. Prompted by public health concerns and protection for the many disadvantaged and vulnerable members of the Victorian community, the Chinese community in Western Australia is reaching out to offer the very basic but essential protection to the Victorian community through Australian Red Cross.

七月底，澳大利亚维多利亚州爆发第二波COVID-19疫情。西澳华人社区齐心协力，为维州社区采购并捐赠了五万枚口罩，其中包括一千枚儿童口罩。

2020年7月28日，中华会馆会长陈挺博士与西澳中华总商会会长陈超群先生，及代表19个组织的华人社团成员将口罩交到澳大利亚红十字会西澳州主任Craig Steward先生手中。

中华会馆会长陈挺博士表示： “看到墨尔本COVID-19病例增加的消息，我们非常难过，我们支持维多利亚州人对抗病毒。通过我们的口罩募捐活动，在一周内，我们向西澳华人各社区募集了超过五万个口罩。我们很高兴也很感谢澳大利亚红十字会的支持，接受捐赠并将口罩发放给墨尔本有需要的人。我们将共同度过这次疫情。 ”

自2020年7月22日（周三）起，维州 COVID-19病例数量每天飙升至三位数，因此戴口罩成为强制性措施。出于对公众健康的关注，以及对维州社区众多弱势群体的保护，西澳华人社区伸出援手，通过澳大利亚红十字会为维州社区提供最基本但必要的保护。

East Perth Cemetery Chinese Jacket Conservation Project Meeting

保存澳洲华人遗迹文物捐款倡议 On Wednesday 19 August 2020, Chung Wah Association organised a meeting for the Chinese community to meet Mr Julian Donaldson, the Chief Executive Officer of the National Trust, Western Australia, and Ms Leesa Markussen and Ms Carmen Chia, representatives of the Honourable David Templeman, Minister for Local Government; Heritage; Culture and Arts. Thirty representatives from the Chinese community also attended the meeting to discuss the conservation project of a recently unearthed artefact from the East Perth Cemetery, the first cemetery in Perth. The early local settlers were buried here, with the Presbyterian and the Chinese buried across the road.

The site was sold to developers a few years ago. Part of the agreement was the

excavation and relocation of remains, which would be interred into ossuary boxes at Karrakatta Cemetery prior to any new building being built. Other uncovered artefacts would be transferred to the National Trust, which oversees the main cemetery site.

Among artefacts recovered by the Trust was a 19th century man’s jacket from the Chinese section of the cemetery. It is believed that the jacket and its owner were buried there in 1888-1889. The archaeologists have commented on how well the fabric of the jacket was preserved. The National Trust is keen to further conserve the jacket for use by researchers and for future displays. As this work is very costly, they are appealing to the Chinese community in particular, to support the project. We are approaching the 200th anniversary of Western Australia in 2029, which marks the arrival of Moon Chow as well. There remains very little tangible evidence of the early Chinese presence in WA, so this jacket has become one of the few pre-1900 artefacts.

The representatives from the Chinese community at the meeting endorsed the proposed conservation project by the

Exhumation draft report

National Trust, Western Australia. As the jacket is a testimony of the early Chinese settlement in Western Australia, it may reveal the living conditions of the early Chinese settlers in the 19th century and will be a valuable resource for studies and research.

The cost of this conservation project is estimated at $14,000. Chung Wah Association is appealing to the Chinese community to support and donate to this meaningful project. The land developer of the cemetery site has promised to match the amount raised by the Chinese community. Therefore, the target amount for the Chinese community is $7,000, to be raised in a short period of time, so that the conservation project can be carried out as soon as possible. All donations for more than $2 are tax deductible. The National Trust, Western Australia, will provide a receipt for all personal donations.

2020年8月19日星期三，中华会馆荣幸的接待了澳大利亚国家信托基金（National Trust of Australia）的执行官Julian Donaldson先生，地方政府及文化遗产与艺术的代表Leesa Markussen 和Carmen Chia，以及近三十名华人社区代表，共同商讨一件近期出土的华人遗物的保管问题。这件事起源于珀斯East Perth区的一处墓园，于19世纪初建设。其中一小片一直以来被称为“华人墓园” ，因为当年一些早期的华人移民去世后安葬于此。

这片土地不久前被重新开发的时候，出土一批历史遗物。这些遗物由国家信托基金进行保管。但其中一件男式外套引起了国家信托基金的极大重视。这件外套大约于1888-1898清末年间埋葬，保存完好，属于一名如今已经无法追溯的华人男子。

国家信托基金的负责人 Donaldson先生特意为此找到中华会馆并希望会馆邀请华人社区其他社团组织参与，商讨如何妥善处理这件遗物。Donaldson先生称这件外套的完整程度十分少见，具有保存价值。国家信托基金希望请专业人员对此遗物进行反新和保存的工作。在一切工作完成后将会在西澳做文物展示。

在场参与此次商讨的华人同胞们全数一致赞同国家信托基金的建议。因为这件外套是华人在澳洲的见证。它或许可以透露给21世纪的我们，一些当时19世纪华人在澳洲的生活状态。

由于保存修复该文物的费用昂贵，预计花费$14,000。在此，我们呼吁华人社区的捐助来支持此项有意义的工作。这片墓地的土地开发商也承诺为此给与捐助。如果我们每个人都能参与其中，便可积少成多。我们希望可以在短时间内筹集 $7000澳币，早日对此件遗物进行翻新和保存。超过两澳元可抵扣税款, 国家信托基金会(National Trust)会给个人的捐款提供可抵税的收据。

西澳博物馆 WA Museum True Diversity· Diversity · 体现多元文化精神

Boola Bardip

文/译 ◎Elvie Yap 叶俐廷

t a time when we are all a little uncertain of what's to come, the Chief Executive Officer of the Western Australian Museum, Alec Coles, talks to Elvie Yap about how he values the benefits of diversity in our enormous State, and the essential roles of the new WA Museum.

Raised in a rural area in the United Kingdom, Alec was deeply inspired when he first visited the British Museum in London during a school excursion. His first GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums) industry employment was working as a curator assistant. Later, his strong passion and leadership led him to the role of Director of Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums in North East England, which he served for eight years. He has also completed his post-graduate Diploma in Museum studies.

He is an Adjunct Associate Professor in the School of Social Sciences at the University of Western Australia, an Executive Member of the Council for Australasian Museum Directors, a board member of the Australian Council for the Humanities and Social Sciences, and former Chair of the International Council of Museums (ICOM) Australia.

Seize the moment

Talking about his journey to Perth, it was a big venture. "I was approached by the WA Government, the Barnett Government back then, the potential to develop a new museum," he says.

Since 2010, Alec has taken on the role

as the CEO of the Western Australian Museum, with branches in Perth, Fremantle, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie and Albany. For decades, the Museum was not attractive to local and foreign visitors, and the State Government had been considering the redevelopment of the Museum. In the journey of making the new WA Museum project, Alec Coles has weathered everything the declining financial situation has thrown at him, from uncertain funding commitments to time constraints. "So many people told me that the government would not fund a new museum” Alec recalled.

The mining boom in WA was coming towards an end and starting from 2010, the State’s economy was gong downhill. It was an enormous challenge to secure government funding, with a lot of doubt coming from most people about the worthiness of taxpayers' investment in museum redevelopment at such a critical time.

Seize the moment. For the first three years in his position, Alec actively planned for the project and demonstrated evidence of his team’s capability under

his leadership, in order to convince the government to fund the new WA Museum. As part of the process in building confidence, the WA Museum hosted a few extraordinary and successful large-scale exhibitions, such as A Day in Pompeii, and Home of the Perth Fashion Festival.

"If you do a good thing, people will support you!" Alec Coles’ belief in advocacy by achievement, keeps him going, showing what the Museum could do for Western Australia. The causedriven Alec expressed his gratitude to the courage of the then WA Minister for Planning, Culture and the Arts, John Day, for his approval of this project. After the funding was in place, it took another three years to execute all the necessary business activities, including the tender for the building project to the international market, before the commencement of the construction work in 2016. Five of Perth's significant heritage buildings have been revitalised and integrated with an architecturally stunning new building; and the WA Museum Boola Bardip was designed by an international architect consortium, Hassell + OMA, and built by the managing contractor, Multiplex.

The Roles of WA Museum

"The Museum is a trusted place. I believe the Museum has the power of making a real difference to people's lives. It is a safe place for unsafe ideas, where free expression is allowed. We learn from the past to shape the future," said Alec. Working in the GLAM industry throughout his career, he feels the highest satisfaction is being able to make a difference. "Every museum will tell you the 18 to 30-year-old age group is the most difficult audience to attract," says Alec. It is a common challenge for every museum in engaging the younger generation to have an interest in exploring history. The new Museum is embedding multimedia technology, showcasing the history, activating it as an exciting place, diversifying the content and organising events in and around it. As articulated by Alec, there is a '3 + 1' concept for the theme of the WA Museum Boola Bardip, including 'Being Western Australian', 'Discovering WA', 'Exploring the World' and 'Revealing the Museum'. "Create a museum that is owned, used and valued by all West Australians and made by the world. Diversity is a huge benefit to WA," Alec described.

Approximately 54,000 people around WA have contributed their thoughts to the development of the Museum's

exhibitions, programs and stories. "We were committed to an extraordinary level of consultation, participation and engagement, including getting ideas and opinions from the community, nobody has ever done it in this scale," says Alec. The Museum plays a role in celebrating the diversity of our people, promoting positive multiculturalism and building understanding. He emphasised the importance of understanding of not only migrant populations, but also taking our stories to the world and bringing the world stories back to WA. Geographically and time zone wise, we are closer to many countries in Asia than the east coast.

"I was very impressed that the people were committed to culture when I visited Fuzhou, China," Alec shared his positive experience when he attended the significant GLAM industry expo in China, the "MPT-EXPO', in 2018. Responding to the question of what Alec would like to see the new WA Museum achieve in the near future, Alec shared that, before Covid-19, they were aiming to have up to 800,000 satisfied visitors, with 25% of visitors from overseas, for the 18-month free admission period. With the border closure, as projected, the total number of visitors might be 200,000 to 600,000.

于这个充满不确定性的时期，西澳博物馆的首席执行官 Alec Coles向我们的执行编辑叶俐廷，透露他十分珍惜西澳州多元文化的优势，细说新西澳博物馆所扮演的重要角色。

在英国的一个小农村成长的Alec，在第一次学校组织到英国伦敦的国家博物馆参观，让他留下深刻的印象和启发。他第一份在这个图档博领域（画廊、图书馆、存档、博物馆）的正职就是当一位策展员助理。经过时间的洗炼，在他强大的热诚和领导能力下，他成为了英国东北部的Tyne & Wear 博物馆的总裁，工作八年。他也完成了博物馆学的研究生文凭课程。目前，Alec是西澳大学人文学系的兼任副教授；大洋洲博物馆总裁协会的执行委员；澳大利亚人类与社会学协会的理事，他也曾是澳大利亚国际博物馆协会的主席。

把握时机

谈起他来到珀斯的过程，可真是一个相当大的挑战。他说道： “当时 Barnett为首的西澳州政府跟他接触，谈起建设新的博物馆的计划。 “ 自2010起，Alec就开始担任西澳博物馆的首席执行官一职，旗下的博物馆分别在珀斯、费里曼特、吉拉顿、卡古里和阿班尼。数十年以来，当地和国外游客对西澳博物馆没有太大兴趣，州政府一直有重建博物馆的想法。

在重建西澳博物馆这个项目的过程中，Alec成功克服种种因经济走下坡的窘境所导致的资金不确定和时间限制。

Alec回想过去感叹道： “当时太多人对我说政府是不会拨款建新博物馆。 “ 2010年是西澳的矿业繁荣期接近结束，西澳经济往下滑的开始。在那个时期，要确保政府的拨款是一项艰巨的任务，加上周遭的人都很怀疑在经济艰难的情况下是否值得把纳税人的钱投入重建博物馆工程。把握时机的信念下，Alec积极对此项工程进行计划，在他的领导下发挥团队精神用行动证明他们的能力，用行动说服政府资助新西澳博物馆的工程。为了让政府对这工程有信心，西澳博物馆主办了好几个独特且成功的大型博览

会，如： “在庞贝的一天”和“珀斯时装节之家”等等。

Alec秉持着倡导信念的精神，促使他排除万难，不断向前走，证明西澳博物馆可以带给西澳州的好处。他相信， “只要做的是好事，人们都会支持的！”坚持信念的Alec非常感恩当时的西澳工程规划、文化艺术部长 John Day的勇气，批准了这项工程。

当资金问题解决后，在2016年开始动工前，整个工程花了三年时间进行一系列的业务活动，包括把这大型建筑工程提呈到国际市场进行投标。珀斯历史悠久的五座大楼重新翻新，加上一栋全新建筑物，贯穿在一起。这座建筑宏伟的Boola Bardip西澳博物馆，是由国际知名建筑师组合，Hassell 和OMA 共同设计，西澳建筑商Multiplex建造。

西澳博物馆的角色

Alec表示： “博物馆是一个值得信赖的地方。我相信博物馆有一种可以带给人变得不同的能力，是表达另类想法的一个安全的地方，可以自由言论。我们可以从过去中学习以塑造未来。”在这个图档博领域奋斗多年的Alec认为，这个事业选择的最大成就感就是可以带给这个社会变得不一样。

“18到30岁年龄层的客源都是每个博物馆最难吸引的观众群。 ”每家博物馆基本上都面对着同样的挑战，就是让年轻一代对发掘历史感兴趣。新的西澳博物馆将会综合多媒体科技展示历史的一面，打造出一个充满动力的地方，展示多样化的内容和在馆内馆外办活动。

在细数西澳博物馆的特点时，Alec 提及背后有一个“三加一”的概念来体现 Boola Bardip 西澳博物馆的主题，其中包括“作为西澳人”、 “发掘西澳”、 “环视全球” 和“揭开博物馆”。 Alec形容道： “ 打造一个属于西澳人的博物馆，让西澳人常使用和珍惜，并且是

The $400 million new Western Australian Museum will open on 21 November 2020, with a nine-day festival. Free general admission for the first 18 months.

“ Our new world-class Museum will be the heart of our State and reflects the spirit of its people. It will be an important part of Perth’s cultural precinct and will be owned, visited and valued by all West Australians and admired by the world – a major attraction for visitors to our State.” -- as described by the team at WA Museum

Chung Wah Quarterly Bilingual Magazine Spring Issue

由这个世界共同组成的一个地方。多元化是西澳的一个极大优势。 ”

将近五万四千的西澳人对博物馆的展览、节目和故事构想，发表过他们的想法。Alec说道： “我们进行了一项非比寻常的社区意见收集和参与，征求社区人士的意见和想法，这个规模的社区咨询行动史无前例。 ”

博物馆在欢庆人民的多元性，促进正面的多元文化观，和建立相互之间的理解方面，扮演着一个角色。他强调重要的不是人民只知道移民的人口，而是要把我们的故事带到全世界，同时也把全球的故事带到西澳来。地理位置和时差上，相比东岸，其实我们跟亚洲更加接近。在采访中，Alec提及他在2018年到中国福州参加一个图档博领域举足轻重的博博会，他分享自己亲身参与其中的感想。他表示： “我到福州那一次，中国人民致力于文化上的建设，让我非常惊叹和打动我心。 “

在问及Alec想看到新的西澳博物馆在不久的未来可以取得怎样的成绩，他提及在新冠疫情爆发之前，他们是想在锁定的十八个月免费参观期间，吸引八十万的人流，其中25%是来自海外的游客。目前的边界封锁情况下，预估到访总人数会在二十万至六十万之间。

西澳博物馆

这所耗资四亿建造的西澳博物馆，将在2020年11月21 日对外开放，届时会有连续九天的节庆安排，并且免费入场十八个月。

“ 我们新打造的世界级博物馆，将会是西澳州的中心，反映出西澳人民的精神。它将会是珀斯文化区重要的一部分，为西澳人所拥有、参观和珍惜，也让全世界所欣赏----它是西澳游客不能错失的景区。 ”

I first visited the Perth Museum in the 1960s as a child. Working in this field I know how difficult it is to select what to display from a vast collection. However with digital and other new technologies, I anticipate an inclusive and ethnically diverse Western Australian story on show, which will challenge and impress all visitors whether they speak English or another language. I eagerly await my first visit to be able to explore the old and new buildings from a different vantage point, as well as take in the hard work of the curators and design teams in presenting the new exhibitions.

上世纪六十年代，我还是小孩的时候第一次到访珀斯博物馆。在这个领域工作多年，我明白要从芸芸收藏品中挑选用作展示的物件是非常困难的事。我期待看到多元种族和广泛的西澳人故事能在西澳博物馆呈现，这会让所有来自英语或其他语言背景的访客感到惊叹。我急切地等待着第一次参观这个新旧结合的建筑大楼，和见识辛勤的策展人和设计团队如何展现新的展览主题。

First and foremost, I would like to congratulate everyone involved in our spectacular new Western Australian Museum, which is opening this November. The Museum of Western Australia has a rich and encapsulating history stretching over 100 years. It showcases our history, culture and community values, and demonstrates the heart and soul of our people.

Today, Western Australia is a vibrant and multicultural society, and I hope that all cultures will have an opportunity to be presented in the museum. Art, after all, is a universal language and I sincerely hope the WA Museum can help people of all cultural backgrounds to communicate and appreciate each other’s wisdom.

首先，我要恭贺所有参与即将在11月份开业的崭新西澳博物馆的全体人员。西澳博物馆拥有超过百年丰富且包罗万象的历史。它体现了我们的历史、文化和社区价值，并展示了我们人民的内心和精神。今天，西澳大利亚州是一个充满生机的多元文化社会，我希望各种文化都有机会在博物馆展出。毕竟艺术是一种通用语言，我衷心希望西澳博物馆能够帮助不同文化背景的人们，更好地相互交流和欣赏彼此的智慧。

我每次坐巴士一定会经过Perth博物馆，看外观让人感觉很复古有点高级的感觉，是我很喜欢的欧洲建筑风格。希望在这家博物馆里可以看见，例如：恐龙的骨架，也希望见识到世界各地历史产物毕竟澳洲是多元文化的国家，然而我最期待的是能见到更多高科技的东西，比如以人工智能动画的程式去展现给旅客博物馆里的文物。像是《侏罗纪公园》电影里的大厅，他们以立体恐龙动画和声音去和旅客互动。

I always go past Perth Museum when I travel home on the bus. It looks retro and kind of high class to me, it is kind of my favourite style of European architectural design. I hope to see something like the dinosaur skeleton and historical artefacts from different parts of the world, as Australia is a multicultural country. However, I most anticipate seeing more high technology elements, such as Artificial Intelligence Animation, to present the history for visitors at the museum. For example, there is a museum in the ‘Jurassic Park’ movie that uses the dinosaur animation and sound to interact with visitors.

Dr Alex Chong 张晋伟博士 Working Parent 在职父母

在未来的西澳博物馆，我希望能看到更多科技。里面可以用更多增强现实（Augmented Reality），让文物活起来，就像《博物館奇妙夜》电影里的情节一样。西澳博物馆可以用虚拟现实（Virtual Reality），让人无论是在家，还是在外国，即使因为疫情无法来旅游，都能体验亲身游览博物馆的感觉。

Words from the Chinese community in WA

In this new WA Museum, I would like to see more technology being embedded. Hope to see that the museum could use the Augmentation Reality technology to make the artefacts look lively, similar to those shown in the ‘Night of the Museum’ movie. It might be good if the museum could also have Virtual Reality technology that enables visitors to experience the feeling of visiting the museum, from home or overseas, especially during Covid-19.

出国旅行，悠然神往的博物馆只能匆忙地走马看花。很期待就近的西澳博物馆翻新开展，可以常常去细细看。我太太喜欢贴近生活类的大自然缩影和原住民文物；我偏爱科技，喜欢虚拟现实互动的呈现，也希望看到关于探索宇宙如西澳SKA的展览。期盼与孩子一起体验顶级博物馆的亲子时光。

Every time I went on an overseas holiday, I was only able to do a quick visit of the local museum that I admired. As the new WA Museum is opening near us, I can’t wait to visit and look into all of its elements in detail. My wife likes to watch items relevant to the nature and the artefacts from the Aboriginal culture. I am keen on technology, and love to see the presentation of the integration between reality and virtual technology. I also hope to see cosmological discovery kind of elements, similar to the WA SKA Expo. Looking forward to experience the world class museum, together with my child, for the precious parenting moment.

Great to know the $400 million world-class new WA Museum is opening soon. It is indeed a wonderful event for Perth residents and overseas visitors. Hope to see that the museum could have the most advanced digital display system to introduce Perth’s history, people, and the resources industries such as fishery, mining and agriculture, etc. In order to develop WA's tourism resources as soon as possible, this will be part of a WA tourism route dedicated to overseas visitors.

Although a five-year wait seems long, WA’s new museum is reopening just at the right time, after what we’ve experienced in the year 2020 so far. I was thrilled when a friend of mine asked me what I would like to see at the museum, and I know my list is long. I’m always fascinated by different cultures and stories. My husband has a great interest in science and technology, while my son is very much into fossils and gem stones recently. We just simply can’t wait to visit this wonderful place to cure our curiosity!

在我们经历了2020年的种种，看似漫长的五年重建，西澳大利亚博物馆的重新开放到来的时间刚刚好。当被一位朋友问到我想在新馆看到什么的时候，我的内心无比兴奋与激动，因为愿望清单有点长哦！我是一个非常着迷于多元文化和有趣故事的人，而我的先生对科学、科技更感兴趣。我们的儿子最近十分热衷收集化石和矿物石。我和我的家人及朋友已经迫不及待的想要参观这所精彩绝妙的圣地，来尽情地满足我们的好奇之心呢！

勤俭一生爱我中华 An incredible man supporting Chung Wah incredibly Chung Wah Quarterly Bilingual Magazine Spring Issue

中华人物 PROFILE INTERVIEW

s a former Trustee of Chung Wah Association, a retired A member of the Council of Elders and former custodian of the Common Seal of the Association, Mr Kim Thai Tan is proud to witness the continued growth and evolution of Chung Wah Association over the decades. From his initial involvement with the Association during the early 1980s through to his retirement from the Council of Elders in 2014, Chung Wah Association has held and continues to hold a place of profound importance and relevance for Kim Thai. He shares his pride that the Association continues to excel in advancing the interests and serving the needs of the Chinese community in Western Australia.

Childhood and Early Background

Mr Kim Thai Tan was born during the 1920s in Putian, Fujian Province, China. He was born during a time of extraordinary hardship and poverty. Hunger and famine were common, attending school was a privilege and farming was a means of survival.

Kim Thai recalls "Growing up during those difficult times meant periods where we did not have any food or money, and I needed to forgo my schooling to try and help provide for our family. My life began from the humblest of beginnings. I took nothing for granted, and the difficulties faced during my childhood forced me to be hard-working, self-reliant and disciplined to survive."

Early Memories of Perth

with Chung Wah Association during his first year in Perth. It was around this time he made his most sentimental contribution to Chung Wah Association. Kim Thai recalls "I had started to become familiar with Chung Wah and its committee members when the request came out to raise funds to purchase land that would be used for the future Chung Wah Cultural Centre in Balcatta. My contribution towards the purchase of this land is very sentimental to me for several reasons. Firstly, my personal belief is that ownership of real estate provides security and a solid foundation from which more things can grow. I felt contributing to the purchase of the land in Balcatta would help to establish Chung Wah further, providing another base from which to grow to benefit present and future members. Secondly, the contribution would formally mark the beginning of my decades-long connection with Chung Wah."

Reflecting on his early memories of Perth Throughout the 1990s to 2010s, Kim Thai during early 1980s, Mr Tan recalls "It continued to be an active supporter of was crucial at that time for the Chinese the various Chung Wah events. "I was community to share our culture, values keen to support Chung Wah's cultural, and heritage with the wider community. sporting and artistic pursuits. I feel that, The world was less accepting as it is today. living in Australia, there is an even greater As a new homeland for many migrants, importance to support events which building cultural understanding was and celebrate our Chinese continues to be important identity and heritage. in improving acceptance I took nothing for To me, continuing our and opportunities in granted, and the cultural ties is vital for this country." difficulties faced during developing our sense of In deciding on Perth as community as well as for my childhood forced a migration destination sharing the many lessons during the 1980s, many me to be hard-working, contained in our rich aspects attracted Kim traditions and customs. self-reliant and Thai to Perth.

"It is a testament of how blessed the broader community of our culture Perth and Australia are that all these and also acted as great social occasions, attractive qualities in the 1980s remain not just for our members, but for all the true even till today," Kim Thai says. people in Western Australia, both Chinese and non-Chinese, to connect with Involvement with one another".

Chung Wah Association

"The significance to me, for our members, was for the Association to act as a support base, to provide a refuge for those encountering cultural difficulties, a connection for those who miss home and a bridge to form new friendships in the WA society."

“Ultimately, what has been achieved over the time I was actively involved with Chung Wah was done as part of a team. The collaboration of every Council and Committee member, the dedication from our staff and volunteers, and most importantly the valuable participation from our members, have all played their part in helping to shape the institution that we see today. I feel fortunate for the opportunity to work with the diverse range of talented people, characters and personalities dedicated to taking the Association forward.”

Kim Thai's involvement with Chung Wah spans untill today as a Life Member of the Association.

Words for the New Generation of Overseas Chinese

"My advice to young overseas Chinese is to continue to take on more responsibility. Become involved in the community and improve the society you live in. Your achievements will be self-rewarding, and in doing so, you are paving an easier road for future generations to come."

Final Thoughts on Chung Wah Association

"My greatest satisfaction with Chung Wah is to have seen how it has continued to grow from strength to strength. I believe this is also a reflection of the enormous value and contribution Australian Chinese have made and continue to make, enriching all aspects of life in Western Australia, and Australia."

New migrants can face many obstacles adjusting to their newly adopted homelands. Kim Thai recalls his personal experience "Arriving in a new country, particularly one with a different language, culture and lifestyle, was not without its challenges. It would be comforting to find a handful of people who understood this, but in Chung Wah, I was fortunate to be able to meet a whole community that would relate." Kim Thai began to be actively involved

出生于1920年代福建莆田的陈金泰老先生，经历了那个年代无比穷困艰难的日子。挨饿饥荒是常事，耕作是为了生存，上学是一件奢侈的事。

陈老先生感叹往事回忆道: “在如此艰苦的时代成长，金钱和食粮几乎为零，没办法上学，眼前迫切要做的是设法养家。我的出身原本如此低微，从小我就珍惜每一份收获，也不畏惧任何困难，迫使我要勤奋、自力更生和自律以生存下来。

回忆早期的珀斯

在初到珀斯的第一年，陈老先生就开始积极参与中华会馆的工作。在这段日子里，他为中华会馆付出了自己最深切的贡献。陈老先生忆起:“我是从中华会馆为建设位于Balcatta中华文化中心，筹募买地的那段日子，开始熟悉中华会馆及其委员们。对于购买这幅地块，我所作出的贡献，有着几个情感上的因素。首先，我个人的信念一直都觉得拥有了产业，才能安心稳定地发展未来。而且我认为捐钱买下 Balcatta 的地皮有助于中华会馆未来的前景，以让会馆有另一个基地带给当时和未来的会员更多的福利。此外，这份贡献可以铭记我与中华会馆那份情谊的开始。 ”

1990年至2010年，陈金泰老先生仍然积极参与中华会馆的各类活动。 “我过去一直很支持中华会馆在文化、艺术和运动项目上的发展。我觉得生活在澳大利亚，支持富有华人身份和历史象征的活动，意义非凡。对我而言，传承中华文化非常重要，这样才可以让大家找到归属感，同时分享我们丰富传统和礼仪中的种种教诲。华人社区应该继续弘扬中华文化上的多种才能才从小我就珍惜艺。”

追溯起八十年代早期的珀斯，陈老先生回想当年， “那个年代，华人社区可以分享我们的文化、价值观和历史给广大的社区，这个举动相当重要，毕竟当年的世界并不如现在这么包容。作为许多移民的新家园，要改善这个国度对移民的包容和带来更多机遇的话，建立文化上的互相理解，不管是当年或今时今日一直都很关键。”

八十年代移民到珀斯的每一份收获，决定，陈老先生举出了几个此外，这类的活动还可让也不畏惧任何困难，珀斯吸引他的要点。他意识广大的华人社区理解自己的迫使我要勤奋、到珀斯是一个非常具潜力的文化，同时也是开放给西澳地方，适合家庭生活，又拥有自力更生和自律所有民众的娱兴活动，有助高质量的大学学院，而且离增进华裔和非华裔族群之间以生存下来亚洲很近。陈金泰老先生提的交流。及：“ 事实证明珀斯和澳大 “这对我和中华会馆的利亚确实是块福地，这种种八零年代已经会员都很关键，中华会馆办的这类活动，给深具吸引力的条件依然保留至今。 “ 面对文化差异的华裔移民带来心灵上的慰籍，一解思乡之情，而且让他们可以在西澳加入中华会馆社会中建立友谊。 ” 新移民在适应新的生活环境的过程中，难免会面对种种障碍。陈老先生分享他的个人经验说道： “初到一个在语言、文化和生活方式上极其不同的新国家，不可能没有挑战。要让自己感到踏实，最好可以找到一班经历类似的朋友，幸运的是在中华会馆，我找到了整个触动我心的社区。 ”

Chung Wah Quarterly Bilingual Magazine Spring Issue

“总而言之，中华会馆在当年所取得的成就，我只是整个团队其中的一个活跃分子。没有各个小组和理事会成员们的通力合作，以及义工和员工的奉献精神，最重要的还有会员们的参与，中华会馆就不会有今时今日的成果。我觉得自己很荣幸，在过去有机会与各个领域的杰出人士共同为中华会馆付出努力。 ” 时至今日，陈金泰老先生依然以中华会馆永久会员的名义，保留着与会馆的这份情谊。

给新一代华裔移民的忠告

“我给年轻海外移民的忠告就是希望你们可以继续肩负重任，加入社区，改善你所居住的社会。你的成就就是对自己最好的奖赏，你的付出将会让给下一代开拓更顺畅的人生道路。 ”

对中华会馆的寄望

我对中华会馆感到最满意的是见证它日益强大。我相信这当中可以反映出澳大利亚华人所作出的莫大贡献，希望中华会馆可以继续为西澳乃至整个澳大利亚，增添生活上的各种丰富色彩。

Accessible resources to build a stronger business

助您增强业务的可用资源 2

020 has created many challenges for business owners and the situation with COVID-19 and its ongoing impact on the business sector is still evolving.

With small businesses making up 97 percent of all businesses in WA and generating more than $50 billion each year, they are a critical part of our economy. If you own a small business in Western Australia, it’s important to know where to go for advice when you are faced with challenges. The Small Business Development Corporation (SBDC) offers a wide variety of practical and accessible resources to support you to carry on. If you are looking for advice on any aspect of business, a good starting point is the SBDC’s free advisory service. By calling 133 140 or using live chat on the SBDC website smallbusiness.wa.gov. au, you can ask an experienced business adviser questions about business matters, ranging from partnerships to importing and exporting, managing growth, marketing your business and more. Advisers are available to assist Monday to Friday, 8:30am-4:30pm.

Advice and support for commercial tenants has been in demand as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The State Government’s Commercial Tenancies (COVID-19 Response) Act 2020 was passed to help facilitate rent relief negotiations and support small business tenants who suffered a financial impact due to the COVID-19 restrictions. The SBDC website provides information about this legislation in an easy to understand format. The agency also offers a dispute resolution

service for small business owners who are in dispute with other businesses or government agencies, including those related to commercial tenancy disputes. This year, a variety of free online workshops have been made available to support small businesses through the COVID-19 crisis. The interactive workshops cover a wide range of topics from digital marketing to financial knowledge, and can be used to develop skills in specific areas. Business owners can also access a wide range of resources, such as business plan templates, cash flow forecasts and more from the SBDC website.

There is a strong and vibrant small business community in Western Australia and it’s good to connect with others to share experiences and advice. Online networking has the advantage of fitting into your schedule and is not limited by social distancing restrictions. The SBDC’s Facebook Group “I’m a Small Business Owner in Western Australia” (with more than 9,000 members) is particularly active. You can join the group to meet fellow WA business owners and learn from their advice and recommendations.

020年给企业主带来了许多挑战，COVID-19的形势及其对商业领域的持续影响仍在发展。

小型企业占西澳所有企业的 97％，每年创收超过500亿澳元，它们是我们经济的重要组成部分。如果您在西澳大利亚州拥有一家小型企业，那么当您面临挑战时，一定要知道该去哪里寻求建议。小型企业商业发展部（SBDC）提供了各种实用且可访问的资源来支持您继续前进。如果您正在寻找有关业务任何方面的建议，S B D C 的免费咨询服务是一个很好的途径。通过致电133 140或在SBDC网站 smallbusiness.wa.gov.au上进行实时聊天，您可以向有经验的业务顾问提出有关商务合作、进出口业务、业务增长管理，市场营销等业务问题。我们可在周一至周五 8.30am-4.30pm提供咨询帮助。

由于新冠病毒疫情，商业租户寻求建议和支援个案大量增加。州政府通过了2020年《商业租赁（新冠病毒疫情应）法》，以帮助协调租金减免谈判，并支持因新冠病毒疫情限制而遭受财务影响的小型企业租户。SBDC网站以简而易懂的形式提供有关此法规的信息。该机构还为与其他企业或政府机构有争议的小企业主，包括与商业租赁纠纷有关的小企业主，提供纠纷解决服务。

今年，提供了各种免费的在线讲习会，为小型企业提供支持，以度过新冠病毒所导致的重重难关。互动式讲习班涵盖从数字营销到金融知识的广泛主题，可用于发展特定领域的技能。商户还可以从 SBDC网站访问广泛的资源，例如业务计划模板，现金流量预测等。

西澳大利亚州有一个强大而充满动力的小型企业社区，可以与他人建立联系，分享经验和建议。在线网络的优点是可以根据自己的日程安排，不受社交距离限制的限制。 SBDC的脸书小组“我是西澳大利亚州的小企业主” （拥有9000 多名成员）特别活跃。您可以加入小组，与西澳州的企业商户会面，并从他们所提供的意见和建议中学习。

The ‘best’ isn’t always the most suitable Elvie YAP 叶俐廷 - Executive Editor 执行编辑

在

国际教育领域的这些日子里，接触过不少来自不同国家背景的留学生。有的想尽一切办法，付出最大努力想要留在珀斯；有的则倒数日子期待着回国的那一天。每一种植物，都有最适合自己的水土。人，何尝不是如此？

我认识一个持着工作旅游签的台湾女孩，刚失恋之后来到珀斯时总是郁郁寡欢，五个月后见到她，却变得格外开朗且主动咨询我有关适合她留在珀斯选读的课程。

相反的，有另外一位来自马来西亚的年轻女孩，刚中学毕业就被父母安排来珀斯就读幼儿教育证书课程。在半年时间里，不习惯没有家人在身边，常常愁眉苦脸，盼着早回家，结果熬不到毕业就放弃学习回国。好比世界上千奇百种的花卉，人也是要在最适合自己的环境和条件下，才会更有机会发展出璀璨人生。当然也会有一些少数的植物和人，适应能力超强，任何环境和条件都可以开创出一个好结果。

我相信每个人选择生活的地方，往往没有是非对错，只是“适合”与“不适合”的问题罢了。然而，勇于尝试才能清楚自己最适合自己的地方和怎样的生活方式。

移民心声 MIGRANT’S VOICES

没有最好，只有最适合

aving been in the international education industry for years, I have come across many interesting stories of overseas students with different backgrounds. Some of these students make their greatest efforts to continue their stay in Perth. Conversely, there are some of them who cannot wait to return home after they complete their studies. Similar to various species of flora in the world, we, as human beings, can have a better chance of achieving a flourishing life if we are at the most suitable place for ourselves.

I met a young girl, originally from Taiwan, on a working holiday visa. She was always in a groovy mood during the first few weeks after she arrived in Perth. This was because she had just broken up with her ex-boyfriend. Surprisingly, she was pretty cheerful when I saw her again five months later. Furthermore, she took the initiative to ask me for study options as she loves living in this city.

On the other hand, there was a Malaysian girl, whose family arranged her to pursue certificate courses in early childhood education in Perth after she graduated from high school in Malaysia. During the first six-months living in Perth, with no family support around, she constantly felt depressed. Always hoping to return to her home

country, she eventually gave up her studies in Perth and went back to Malaysia for good. Just like millions of flora species, if we get to be at an environment or conditions that suit us well, we would have a greater chance of having a more quality life. No doubt, there are very adaptive species or individuals that can survive or showcase themselves well regardless of any situation. I believe there is no right or wrong for someone selecting a particular place for living. It is an issue of ‘suitable’ or ‘not suitable’. However, it takes courage to make the effort or attempt in order to know the most appropriate place and lifestyle for yourself.

How to I

文◎Poh GAN 颜宝玉译◎Yves 若水

promote healthy eating habits in children Here are my five tips to share with you:

Get children involved and plan meals together

Involve children in planning the meals, grocery shopping and meal preparation. You can even start an organic garden at home and involve your little gardeners! Offer fruits and vegetables as healthy snacks. Keep them in view. Avoid buying sugary drinks, low-nutrient snacks and fast food. Teach them how to read the food labels. Help them to discriminate between healthy and “once-in-a-while” food. Discuss and praise their healthy, balanced choices.

Regular family meal ritual

Did you know that children who share family meals together are more likely to eat healthily and less likely to have substance abuse, such as alcohol and drugs, when they are older. Allow for 2030 minutes for the mealtime together. When we are eating together, parents can model healthy eating habits, table manners and reinforce emotional connection. You can talk about highlights of your day or things that you are grateful for. Try to keep family meals calm and pleasant. No nagging and arguing. No screen time or other distractions.

n Australia, one in four children aged between five and 17 years are considered to be overweight or obese. We also have children who are under-eating or fussy eaters who are picky about their food. We know that eating is not just about filling our stomach and giving us energy; it is also about our nutrition. More recent research shows that our gut health is also closely related to our brain function. This affects how we learn and function. Scientists are doing more research about the gut-brain axis and to understand the links between diet, nutrition and their impact on developmental disorders, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) or mood disorders, such as Depression and Anxiety. This highlights the importance of supporting our children to develop healthy eating habits.

Mindful eating and tummy talk

Practicing bringing awareness to our eating can help us to tune into our bodily cues of satiety and hunger. We can notice and discuss the colour, taste and texture of the food. We are more likely to enjoy and feel satisfied with our food. You may also teach your child to listen to their tummy and rate their hunger level on a scale of one to ten, with one being hungry, and ten being so full that they feel sick. Encourage them to stop eating once they rate their hunger as five and not to overeat.

Avoid battles over food

Eating is also associated with larger cultural context and how we were brought up. If you notice that there is a struggle and conflict, slow down and examine what values you want to uphold as parents. I have heard many parents talk about feeling the pressure to get children to finish their food because that was how they were brought up. Sometimes forcing children to clean their plates teaches children to ignore their bodily cues that they are already full. If they are being picky and fussy, it is okay to let them go hungry instead of giving replacement food. Offering replacement food that they like may accidentally

Chung Wah Quarterly Bilingual Magazine Winter Issue

reinforce their selective diet. Offer a variety of vegetables and lean proteins, and allow them to try. You may offer a plate for them to spill out food that they do not like. Some children may need to try ten times or so before they like the food. Offer lots of praise when they are being adventurous and trying the new food. Avoid offering dessert as a bribe for eating meals. This teaches them that their dinner is less desirable than their dessert. If you notice yourself getting emotionally escalated, take a deep breath, reset and try again another day.

Be a role model

Keeping a positive approach about food and choosing to eat well yourself is the most direct way of influencing your children. Maintain an active lifestyle. Eat heathy and avoid overindulging in “once-in-a-while” food. Avoid complaining about our bodies or dieting. Watching parents doing this may foster the same negative feelings in children. Children and teenagers are too young to start diet control unless they recommended by medical professionals.

If you are worried about your child’s dietary habits, talking to your family doctor or seeing a dietician or nutritionist may help.

如何促进儿童健康饮食习惯

在

澳大利亚，五岁至十七岁的孩童中有四分之一的孩子被认为是超重或肥胖。我们也有一些孩子，他们的饮食不足或挑食。众所周知，进食不只是要让我们的胃饱满并给我们提供能量，还需要补给我们所需的营养。最近的研究表明，肠道健康也与我们的大脑功能密切相关。这影响了我们的学习和运作方式。科学家们正在做更多关于肠脑轴的研究，以了解饮食，营养及其对诸如自闭症谱系障碍、注意力缺乏/多动症（ADHD）或情绪障碍（如抑郁症和焦虑症）等发育障碍之间的联系。这体现了我们应该让孩子养成健康饮食习惯的重要性。

如下分享我的五条提示：

让孩子们参与并一起准备饭菜

让孩子们参与进餐、粮食采购和准备饭菜。您甚至可以在家中建立一个有机花园，让您家的小园丁参与其中！提供水果和蔬菜作为健康零食，确保水果保持在视线范围内。避免购买含糖饮料，低营养零食和快餐。教他们如何阅读食品标签。帮助他们区分健康食品和“偶尔”食品。讨论并赞扬他们的健康均衡选择。

定期的家庭进餐习惯

您知道吗？常与家人一起共享晚餐的孩子，更容易养成健康饮食习惯，而且在他们较大的年龄段中不太容易遭受诸如酒精和毒品等的诱惑。建议花20-30分钟的时间与家人共进晚餐。当我们一起吃饭时，父母可以建立健康的饮食习惯，餐桌礼仪并加强情感联系。您可以谈论当天的亮点或您感恩的事情。尽量保持家庭用餐平静而愉快。没有不必要的争论。没有屏幕时间或其他干扰。

在用餐时保持觉照和“与胃对话”

练习提高用餐时的觉照能力，可以帮助我们更意识到自己的饱腹感和饥饿感。我们可以多加注意和讨论食物的颜色、味道和质感。这样我们可能更会享受我们的食物。您也可以教孩子“聆听胃的心声” ，并以一至十来评价自己的饥饿程度，其中“一”意味着饿了， “十”意味着饱得很难受。鼓励他们在饥饿感到“五”时停止进食，并且不要吃得太饱。

Concerned about your child’s wellbeing and/or learning? Contact your local bilingual psychologist for more assistance

避免因为用餐而争吵

饮食还与每个家庭的文化和成长背景息息相关。如果您发现有挣扎和冲突，请放慢脚步，检视一下您作为父母的价值观。我听说很多父母都必须让孩子吃完盘中的饭菜，因为这些父母过去也是这么带大的。有时，强迫孩子一定要吃完盘中食物会教孩子忽略他们已经吃饱了的身体暗示或饱腹感。如果他们很挑食，不妨让他们饿一餐，而不是急忙给孩子其他食物作选择。提供他们喜欢的替代食品可能会间接导致他们养成挑食的习惯。提供各种蔬菜和瘦肉蛋白质，让他们尝试。您可为他们提供一个盘子，以吐出他们尝试了不喜欢的食物。有些孩子可能需要尝试十次左右才能喜欢某种食物。当他们喜欢冒险并尝试新的食物时，要加以表扬和鼓励。避免提供甜点作为用餐的贿赂，这态度间接表示晚餐不如甜点好。如果您发现自己的压力情绪上不断升级，请深呼吸，尽量恢复平静，然后改天重试。

作为榜样

对食物保持积极态度并选择健康饮食，是影响孩子最直接的方法。保持积极的生活方式和一定的体力活动。吃健康的食物，避免过分放纵吃不健康的食物。避免抱怨我们的身体形象或节食。孩子在这样环境下可能会耳濡目染，产生同样的负面情绪。毕竟孩子们还在发育，除非医疗专业人员建议，否则儿童和青少年都不适宜节食。

如果您担心孩子的饮食习惯，请咨询家庭医生或看饮食治疗师或营养师。

COMMUNITY & AGED CARE 松柏长青

How did Chung Wah Community Aged Care’s seniors and NDIS participants cope during WA’s COVID-19 restrictions?

s the COVID-19 pandemic spreads across 216 countries, impacting millions of people, there has been compelling evidence that older people are at a higher risk of serious illness (WHO, 2020). In order to minimise the spread of COVID-19 in the community, the Western Australian government tightened social restrictions on 29 March 2020 and everyone was advised to stay at home, unless for essential purposes.

In addition, Chung Wah Community & Aged Care (CAC) established the CAC Care Line Support program and the Wellness Package Delivery to support our existing clients, as part of our initiatives to keep in touch and reduce the risk of social isolation during a period when we were instructed to practise social distancing.

Chung Wah Quarterly Bilingual Magazine Spring Issue

Through these means of communication, we were left impressed by how well the majority of consumers and participants were coping. Despite a reasonable level of sadness and worries expressed by many individuals, most of them were happy with the support from their families, friends and CAC.

Chung Wah CAC’s Volunteer Recruitment

scar Wilde once said, “the smallest act of kindness is worth more than the grandest intention”, and what is a better way to spread kindness than volunteering?

Beyond the good deeds and worthwhile causes that are performed by volunteering, many social studies have found that the benefits of volunteering are greater for the volunteers themselves. Not only it gives you a sense of purpose and deeper self-confidence, but it also improves your physical and mental health, connects you with others, and advances your professional and personal growth.

With many unprecedented events this year, the need to support our vulnerable individuals and families has become enormous. Therefore, Chung Wah CAC is calling for more volunteers to come forward and help us ensure everyone in our community is looked after. At the moment, we are looking for volunteer drivers who can assist to transport our seniors.

Thyroid Health 甲状腺健康

Thyroid disorder affects Australians of all age groups and demographics. According to the statistics of the Australian Thyroid Foundation:

• 1 in 10 Australians will be affected by some form of thyroid disorder. • 7 of the 10 are women • Over 1 million Australians are undiagnosed • 60,000 Australians are diagnosed each year • Thyroid cancer is increasing, affecting younger Australians The thyroid gland is located at the front of the neck, near the base of the throat. As part of the endocrine system, a healthy thyroid gland uses ingested iodine from iodine-enriched foods to produce thyroid hormones. The produced hormones help control many of the body’s metabolic processes, such as heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature and weight, as well as regulate body and brain growth and development, and energy levels.

甲状腺疾病影响不同年龄层和各种各样背景的澳大利亚人。根据澳大利亚甲状腺基金会的统计：

• 每十位澳大利亚中就有一人会受到某种形式的甲状腺疾病的影响。 • 十人中有七位是女性

• 超过一百万的澳大利亚患者是未被诊断 • 每年有六万澳大利亚人确诊

• 甲状腺癌正在增加，而且逐渐年轻化

甲状腺位于头颈部的前方，靠近喉咙的底部。作为内分泌系统的一部分，健康的甲状腺能摄入富含碘的食物中碘来产生甲状腺激素。产生的激素有助于控制身体的许多新陈代谢过程，例如心率、血压、体温和体重，以及调节身体和大脑的生长与发育以及能量水平。为了确保不受甲状腺疾病困扰，人们对甲状腺的健康意识非常关键。如果您的甲状腺过度活跃（甲状腺机能亢进）或活跃度偏低（甲状腺机能低下），您可能会遇到一系列健康问题。

Awareness is the key to ensuring you do not overlook a thyroid disorder which could affect your health and wellbeing. If your thyroid becomes overactive (hyperthyroidism) or underactive (hypothyroidism), you could experience a range of health problems.

Hypothyroidism

(Underactive Thyroid) Hypothyroidism is the most common thyroid disorder in Australia, and mainly affects women over 40. It is estimated that 10 times more women than men are affected. Hypothyroidism is usually gradually progressive with symptoms increasing as thyroid function deteriorates. When symptoms do appear, they can be quite varied and can include fatigue, increased sensitivity to cold, constipation, dry skin, weight gain, thinning hair, poor memory and depression.

Hyperthyroidism

(Overactive Thyroid) Graves’disease is the most common cause of hyperthyroidism. It usually affects people aged between 20 and 60, and is much more common in women than in men. It is triggered by the immune system producing antibodies that stimulate the thyroid gland to increase the size of the gland and produce excessive amounts of thyroid hormones. The most common symptoms of hyperthyroidism are weight loss, agitation and nervousness, heat intolerance, heart palpitations or rapid heartbeat, and becoming tired doing ordinary activities.

甲状腺机能低下症（活跃度偏低）

甲状腺机能低下症是澳大利亚最常见的甲状腺疾病，主要影响四十岁以上的女性。据估计，受影响的女性人数是男性的十倍。甲状腺机能低下症通常是逐渐进行的，随着甲状腺功能的恶化症状会逐渐加重。当症状出现时，这些症状会是多变的，包括疲劳、对感冒的敏感性增加、便秘、皮肤干燥、体重增加、头发稀疏、记忆力减退和抑郁。

甲状腺机能亢进症（过度活跃）

弥漫性毒性甲状腺肿 (Graves’disease) 是甲状腺机能亢进的最常见原因。它通常会影响20至60岁的人群，女性比男性更普遍。它是由产生刺激甲状腺的抗体的免疫系统触发的，从而增加甲状腺的大小并产生过量的甲状腺激素。甲状腺功能亢进症最常见的症状是体重

减轻，躁动和神经紧张，不耐热，心或心跳加快，以及在进行日常活动时变得疲倦。

Stress

Our stress levels can sometimes be too much to handle and that is not good news for your thyroid. Stress can suppress what is known as our T-helper cells, which are linked to our immunity cells. During events of stress, the body produces the hormone cortisol; excessive amounts of cortisol can interrupt the production of thyroxine. For most of us, stressful events arise daily, so learning how to manage your stress when you have an autoimmune thyroid disorder is very important to your long term health.

Iodine Deficiency

The thyroid makes thyroid hormones from an amino acid called thyroxine, that we get from proteins in our diet. But it also requires a regular supply of iodine from our diet. Adults need about 150 µg (micrograms) each day and 200 – 250 µg during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Iodine deficiency was considered to be rare in Australia, occurring only in areas like Tasmania and along the Great Dividing Range where the soils are low in iodine. However, mild iodine deficiency has re-emerged as a health concern in recent years, particularly in New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania, and especially in pregnancy. In response, legislation was passed in 2008, requiring that salt used in commercially-baked bread in Australia and New Zealand must be iodised. The only exception is organic bread. The WHO advocates universal salt iodisation but this policy has not yet been adopted in Australia.

Excessive Exposure to Plastic Chemical

According to a study in the journal, Environmental Health Perspectives, Bisphenols and Phthalates – two chemicals found in many plastic products – could also affect your thyroid function, causing you to feel fatigued. People with higher levels of these chemicals in their urine had lower levels of thyroid hormones. Perhaps, for long term wellbeing, you may strongly consider switching from a plastic water bottle to a glass or metal one, and trying to avoid heating and storing your food in plastic containers.

Seek Health Advice

If you are struggling with low energy, ask your doctor to check your thyroid levels, just in case. Not everyone needs medication to help support their thyroid but it’s best to rule it out.

Although thyroid disease is often diagnosed by a GP, it's usually treated, at least at the outset, by a specialist endocrinologist (someone who specialises in glands and hormones). Once specialist treatment has commenced, the GP will usually participate in the ongoing management.

If you have just received your thyroid medical test results, which confirm you have a thyroid disorder, please make sure you are given copies of all the results for your records. This will help in case you move house or you change medical practices.

风险因素

养生之道 GOOD HEALTH

Risk Factors

压力

我们也许会有面对难以负荷的压力，但这对我们身上的甲状腺而言非常不利。压力可以抑制与我们的免疫细胞相关的所谓的T辅助细胞。在面对压力时，身体会产生激素皮质醇。过量的皮质醇会中断甲状腺素的产生。

对于我们大多数人来说，每天都可能会承受压力，因此了解自身免疫性甲状腺疾病，同时懂得如何控制压力，对您的长期健康非常重要。

碘缺乏症

甲状腺利用氨基酸制造出称为甲状腺素的激素，氨基酸是从饮食中的蛋白质中获取的。但这也需要从我们的饮食中定期供应碘。成人每天需要约150 微克，怀孕和母乳喂养期间则需要200 – 250 微克。碘缺乏在澳大利亚被认为是罕见的，仅发生在塔斯马尼亚州和大分水岭沿线的土壤中碘含量低的地区。但是，近年来，轻度碘缺乏症尤其是在怀孕期间，再次成为一种健康问题，特别是在新南威尔士州，维多利亚州和塔斯马尼亚州。

作为回应，2008年通过了立法，要求必须对澳大利亚和新西兰用于商业烘焙面包中的盐进行碘处理。唯一的例外是有机面包。世卫组织主张加碘盐普及化，但澳大利亚尚未采用该政策。

过度接触塑料化学品

根据《环境健康展望》杂志中的一项研究，双酚和邻苯二甲酸酯（许多塑料产品中发现的两种化学物质）也可能影响甲状腺功能，使您感到疲劳。尿液中这些化学物质含量较高的人甲状腺激素水平较低。也许，从长远来看，您可能要好好考虑从塑料水瓶换成玻璃或金属瓶，并尝试避免加热食物存放在塑料容器中。

寻求健康建议

如果您容易疲惫，请医生检查一下甲状腺水平，以防万一。并非每个人都需要药物来帮助维持甲状腺，但是最好还做检查。

尽管甲状腺疾病通常由家庭医生诊断，但通常至少在一开始就由专职内分泌学家（专门研究腺体和激素的人）提供治疗。一旦开始专科治疗，您的家庭医生通常会参与治疗进行的管理。如果您刚刚收到了甲状腺医学检查结果，确认您患有甲状腺疾病，请确保已获得所有结果的副本以作记录。如果您搬家或改变医疗习惯，这将有所帮助。

The Human Body’s Ability to Strengthen and Self-Heal 文◎Yongsim LEE 李荣参

译◎Yves 若水

Yong Sim Lee is a pharmacist with 12 years of experience. He believes that the best medication is education. As a father of two children, he also has further advanced his study in paediatric medicine. He is blessed to own two pharmacies. Sim is currently pursuing a postgrad in Nutritional Medicine. 李荣参从事了12年的药剂师工作。他相信教育是最好的良药。作为两个孩子的爸爸，他完成了儿科药物学课程。他感到侥幸可以经营自己的两家药房。荣参正进修着营养药物学。

rom a holistic perspective, there are three main pathways to illness: stress, infections and toxins. However, if we can focus on the following five key areas, our body can be strengthened and repair itself.

1. Nourishing the body with real food 2. Removing reactive and junk food

3. Adding minerals and vitamins that the body may be missing 4. Putting the body in a relaxed and healing state

5. Supporting the body’s natural processes and defences

In this article, I am going to focus on minerals and vitamins that are important for our thyroid function.

1. Iodine

Iodine is the most important nutrient for thyroid health and function. The thyroid uses iodine to produce hormones. Mild iodine deficiency has re-emerged in Australia over the last 10 years, with 43% of the population having inadequate iodine intake. Good food sources of iodine include kelp/seaweed, fish and iodised salt. If iodine deficiency is identified, a low dose of iodine supplement (100mcg/ day) may be necessary.

2. Selenium, Zinc and Iron

Selenium, zinc and iron are essential to help the body convert inactive T4 to active T3 hormone. Selenium also protects thyroid cells from oxidative damage during the production of thyroid hormones. For supplementation, make sure:

3. Magnesium

Magnesium is a powerhouse nutrient and it involves over 300 enzymes. Anecdotal evidence shows magnesium improves sleep and energy level, reduces anxiety and constipation in people with autoimmune thyroid disease. The best source of oral magnesium supplements is magnesium citrate (400mg) or magnesium glycinate (100mg) at bedtime.

4. Vitamin A and Bs

V it amin A lower s t h e r isk of hypothyroidism and vitamin B plays an important role in cell metabolism, thyroid function and adrenal function. A vitamin B complex supplement should be a great start and will be helpful for most people with low energy levels.

• Selenium is not under 100mcg, which may not be sufficient to improve thyroid dysfunction, while doses exceeding 800mcg per day can be toxic.

• Zinc is not more than 30mg per day without doctor’s supervision. Doses above 40mg may cause a depletion in copper levels. Overall, real food, such as plant foods, nuts (brazil nuts), muscle meats (lamb chops, steak), chicken and egg yolk, is a good source for most minerals and vitamins.

Utilising food as medicine, and coupled with targeted supplements and lifestyle changes, will restore our thyroid health. However, prescription thyroid hormones remain the quickest way to reduce thyroid symptoms and give us the energy to keep working toward improving our health. For best effect, thyroxine (T4) should be taken on an empty stomach, ideally 1 hour before food or 2 hours after food. Meals high in fibre and/or soy should be separated from thyroxine by several hours. Any supplements or fortified food (e.g. Anlene milk), containing calcium, iron, zinc, chromium and selenium, should be taken at least 4 hours apart.

身体的增强和自我修复

从

整体角度看，疾病的三种主要传播途径：压力、感染和毒素。但是，如果我们可以专注于以下五个关键领域，我们的身体就可以得到增强和自我修复。 1. 用真正的食物滋养身体

2. 去除反应性和垃圾食品，

3. 添加人体可能缺少的矿物质和维生素， 4. 使身体处于放松和恢复状态，并且 5. 支持人体的自然过程和防御。

在本文中，我将重点介绍对我们的甲状腺功能至关重要的矿物质和维生素

1.碘

碘是甲状腺健康和功能最重要的营养素。甲状腺使用碘来产生激素。在过去的十年中，碘再度在澳大利亚重新流行，其中43％的人碘摄入不足。碘的良好食物来源包括海带/海藻、鱼和碘盐。如果发现碘缺乏症，可能需要低剂量的碘补充剂（每天 100mcg）。

2.硒、锌和铁

硒、锌和铁对于帮助人体将非活性 T4转化为活性T3激素至关重要。硒还可以在甲状腺激素产生过程中保护甲状腺细胞免受氧化损伤。作为补充元素，请确保： • 硒含量不低于100mcg，可能不足以改善甲状腺功能障碍，而每天的剂量超过800mcg可能是有毒的。

• 在医生的监督下，每天锌的含量不超过30mg。剂量超过40mg可能会导致铜水平降低。

3.镁

镁是一种强大的营养素，涉及300多种酶。轶事证据表明，镁可改善自身免疫性甲状腺疾病患者的睡眠和能量水平，减少其焦虑和便秘。睡前口服镁补充剂的最佳来源是柠檬酸镁（400mg）或甘氨酸镁（100mg）。

4.维生素A和B

维生素A降低甲状腺功能减退的风险，维生素B在细胞代谢，甲状腺功能和肾上腺功能中起重要作用。复合维生素 B补充剂应该是一个很好的开始，并将对大多数低能量的人有帮助。

总体而言，植物性食品、坚果（巴西坚果）、肌肉（羊排、牛排）、鸡和蛋黄等真实食品是大多数矿物质和维生素的良好来源。将食物用作药物，再加上针对性的补品和生活方式的改变，将恢复我们的甲状腺健康。但是，处方甲状腺激素仍然是减轻甲状腺症状并为我们提供持续改善健康的能量的最快方法。为了获得最佳效果，应空腹服用甲状腺素（T4），最好在饭前1小时或饭后2小时服用。高纤维和/或大豆粉应与甲状腺素分开数小时。含有钙、铁、锌、铬和硒的任何补品或强化食品（例如安怡牛奶）应至少间隔4小时服用。

TCM’s Treatment of Hyperthyroidism

下面从中医学角度简述如下:

病因病机

yperthyroidism, also known as “jiǎ kàng”, is an endocrine disease, where excessive thyroid hormones are secreted. It has several causes. TCM does not have a proper term for hyperthyroidism; only its clinical symptoms. The progression of hyperthyroidism includes “xū láo”, describing deterioration of the body; “bù mèi”, describing difficulty sleeping; and “yù zhèng”, describing depression. The following is a brief description from the perspective of TCM:

1. Etiology and pathogenesis:

TCM believes it is caused by, “qī qíng bù suí” – emotional disturbance; “gānqì yù jié” – stagnation of “qi” in the liver; “yù jiǔ huà huǒ” – longterm stress; and “shāng yīn hào jīn”, describing harm to the “yin” in the body and exhaustion. In addition to stagnation of “yin” in the liver, hyperthyroidism is complicated by stuck phlegm and blood flow stagnation, and is thus a complex disease.

2. TCM Syndrome Classifications:

(a) “Gān yù huà huǒ”: pronounced emotional disturbance, agitation, or long-term stress, prolonged upset, dry mouth, dizziness, diarrhoea, weight loss, fatigue, hot hands and feet, sweating, insomnia, tremor of hands and feet, irregular menstruation, reddish tongue, pale tongue with inadequate papillae, and slippery pulse.

(b) Deficiency of “qi” and “yin”: pale complexion, weight loss, night sweat, Disclaimer:

中医认为七情不遂，肝气郁结，郁久化火，伤阴耗津。又因本病程较久，影响血脉通畅, 火炼液为痰。所以”甲亢”的病机中, 除了肝郁火旺阴虚, 又兼杂痰阻血瘀，是一个虚实夹杂的复杂病证。

中医辨证分型:

a. 肝郁化火型：有明显的情绪焦躁或长期处于压力大的环境中, 心烦口干, 头晕目眩, 消谷善饥，腹泻，消瘦乏力,手足心热，多汗失眠，手足颤抖，女子月经不调，舌红苔少，脉滑数等。

hot flashes, heart palpitations, loss of appetite, sore back and knees, pale tongue with inadequate papillae, and heavy pulse.

(c) “Yin” and “yang” imbalance: chronic or recurring illness with symptoms, including irritability, insomnia, excessive sweating indicating “yin” deficiency, as well as depressive moods, fatigue, chills, loss of appetite, weight loss, irregular menstruation in women and involuntary ejaculation in men indicating “yang” deficiency. There is also a dark red colour to the tongue and thick papillae.

3. Principles of TCM Treatments

(a) “Gān yù huà huǒ”: prescribe “dān zhī xiāoyáo” in powder form as the main treatment. (b) Deficiency of “qi” and “yin”: prescribe “shēng mài yǐn” and “liù wèi dì huáng” pills.

1. It is advised that in the case of hyperthyroidism, Western medicine should be the main source of treatment, and prescribed treatments should be adhered to untill completion. After the prescribed treatments have been completed, it is recommended to use Chinese medicine to recuperate the body. 2. Medicine must be taken under the advice of professional doctors in both Chinese or Western medicine. 3. Stressful situations and environments must be avoided. Correcting stressful lifestyles should be a priority.

b. 气阴两虚型：面色苍白，消瘦乏力，盗汗潮热，心悸纳呆，腰膝酸软，舌淡红苔薄少，脉沉数。 c. 阴阳失调型：病程较长，或反复发作，既有烦躁易怒，失眠多汗的阴虚症状，又有情绪忧郁，疲乏怕冷，食欲不振，腹泻消瘦，女子月经不调，男子遗精阳虚等症状。舌暗红苔腻。

中医治疗原则:

d. 肝郁化火型: 以丹枝逍遥散为主方加减

e. 气阴两虚型: 生脉饮合六味地黄丸加减 f. 阴阳失调型: 需根据个人具体情况用药

温馨提醒:

1. 个人经验认为，甲亢发病时应以西医治疗为原则，完成所需的疗程。在减药或停药后，建议考虑用中医调理。

2. 无论中西医治疗”甲亢”，都需要在专业医生指导下用药。

3. 需避开压力大的环境，改变紧张的生活方式最为重要。

ASK THE GP 寻医问药

Ask the GP Dr Mira graduated from Melbourne University Medical School in 2006. Dr Mira is very passionate about her work in general practice as well as cosmetic medicine. She is fluent in both English and Mandarin, and has many years of experience caring for communities with different cultural and social diversity, and she enjoys interacting and helping patients of all backgrounds and ages.

I am feeling distressed and sometimes cry for no reason. I suspect I may have the symptoms of depression. What should I do with this situation?

If you are feeling distressed and have been crying for no reason, it means that you could be at risk of depression. When this happens, it is natural to speak to a close family member or friend to let out your feelings and the troubles you may be experiencing. However, if there is no one you can talk to, your next best action is to try to go and see a general practice doctor for further discussion. We may be able to share what our opinions are and provide you with options ranging from cognitive behaviour therapy to medications if symptoms are severe enough to warrant medical treatment.

For the past two years, I’ve had quite heavy and painful periods. I am 40 now and my tummy feels big and sore each month. Shouldn’t my periods be tailing off at this age?

Individuals can vary from one another with menopause time. Most females have menopause in their late 40s and early 50s. Therefore, your period may not tail off that early due to the fact you are still in a very good reproductive phase. It is important that you see your GP or gynaecologist to have further investigations, such as ultrasound pelvis or pap smear, to rule out medical causes for your painful heavy period. Once cleared of medical causes for the painful heavy period, there are things from natural therapy to medications, such as simple pain medications to intrauterine contraction, like Mirena, to help minimise bleeding. Individuals benefit from different treatment options; it is best to discuss with your GP or gynaecologist for individualised treatment.

I am in my 40s and I’ve been feeling very tired lately. Will B12 injections help? Or any recommendation of supplements?

As a normal aging process, the older we get, we may feel weaker, easily fatigued and increase in tiredness. Therefore, what can help us improve our energy level, is to have a balanced diet, take daily vitamin supplements, as well as trying to live a healthy life by having a good balance of work life, social life and exercise. Usually if the tiredness has started to impact on your daily life function and capacity, it is important to see your GP to have investigations done, such as blood tests, at least to rule out medical causes for the fatigue sensation. If there is a lack of B12 in your blood test, your doctor may suggest to you to increase. your vitamin B12, whether by oral treatment or if severe enough, a B12 injection by your doctor.

I am 58 years old and have recently been put on Perindopril for high blood pressure. Does this medication have side effects and what else can I do to lower my BP? Any medication will have side effects. Therefore, before you start on it, it is important that you talk to your GP and also pharmacist, to understand more. If your doctor has chosen Perindopril for you, it is okay to continue if you have not experienced any adverse effects or allergy with it. Other things that you can do to reduce your high blood pressure are: have good routine exercise, a balanced diet, have a normal body mass index (BMI) and try to lose weight if you are overweight. These will all help you to reduce the high blood pressure.

I have suffered from accidental bowel leakage ever since my first baby was born and I am too embarrassed to see my doctor. What can I do? It is very common to have bowel or urine leakage after delivering a baby. This is because during pregnancy and after delivery, our female pelvic muscle and surrounding structure have been affected and altered due to the pregnancy. When you are experiencing urine or bowel leakage, it is important to remove the feeling of embarrassment and see your GP or gynaecologist for a check-up to assess the severity of it and to recommend management methods.

I think it is safer to wear a mask in public space during this Covid-19 period. Can I wear a mask when I am doing exercise in the gym? Wearing a mask in a public crowded space can help in managing and minimising viral infection via the air. However, when doing exercise in the gym, it may be difficult and unsafe to wear a mask, depending on the activeness of the exercise that you are undertaking. This is due to the fact that we may need more inhaled air due to increased lung expansion during exercise. So, for example, if we are doing only weight training, it may still be okay for a mask. However, if you are doing more active exercise, like aerobic dancing or one that increases the respiratory rate and breathing, you may need have the mask off while exercising. Hence, during this current Covid-19 outbreak, it is important to assess your exercise venue and exercise activity type while maintaining fitness and avoiding catching Covid-19 in public space, e.g. in a gym.

寻医问药 ASK THE GP

寻医问药 Mira医生于2006年毕业于墨尔本大学医学系。Mira医生对她的全科医学以及美容医学工作充满热情。她能说流利的英语和普通话，并拥有多年参与各个多元文化社区的医护经验，并且享受与不同类型和年龄段的患者进行互动，给他们提供帮助。

我感到苦恼，无缘无故哭泣，我怀疑我可能有抑郁症的症状。在这种情况下我该怎么办？如果您感到沮丧并且无缘无故地哭泣，则意味著您可能会有开始轻微的忧郁症的前兆。发生这种情况时，您可以先试试与亲密的家人或朋友交谈，以释放您的感情和可能遇到的麻烦。但是，如果没有人可以与您交谈，那么您的下一个最佳方式是去尝试看一名全科医生进一步讨论。如果症状严重到需要治疗的程度，我们也可以分享我们的意见，并为您提供从认知行为疗法到药物治疗的各种选择。

在过去的两年中，我经经期疼痛也排了很多血。我现在40岁，我的肚子每个月都感到很大还有疼痛。以我目前的年纪，我的经期不是应该慢慢的减轻吗？

尽管每个人的绝经时间可能会有所不同，但大多数女性在40多岁和50多岁时会有更年期的症状。如果您仍处於非常良好的生殖阶段，您的月经可能不会这么早就提前结束。因此，重要的是您要让您的全科医生或妇科医生进行进一步检查，例如超声骨盆检查，宫颈抹片检查，以排除经期疼痛和排血量多的由疾病引起的原因。一旦清除了疾病的原因，就可以考虑使用有从自然疗法到药物，例如简单的止痛消炎药，到宫腔荷尔蒙子宫环药物治疗，以减少出血。每个人可需要治疗的方案不一样，因此可以与您的全科医生或妇科医生讨论，以决定最佳治疗。

我40多岁了，最近我一直感到非常疲倦。 B12 注射会有帮助吗？或有任何补充建议吗？作为正常的衰老过程，年龄越大，我们可能会感到虚弱，容易疲劳并增加疲劳感。因此，我们可以考虑以下的建议帮助我们提高精神和能量。例如保持均衡饮食，每天服用维生素补充营养素。也或者有适当的工作生活量、社交生活和运动，以保持良好平衡的健康生活。通常，如果疲劳开始影响您的日常生活功能，请务必让您的 GP进行检查，例如血液检查，以排除任何病理性引起的疲劳。如果您的血液检查中缺乏维生素B12，您的医生可能会建议您增加维生素B12。医生可以跟您讨论您是否需要口服或注射维生素B12去改善您维生素不足。

我今年 5 8 岁，最近因高血压服用了培哚普利（Perindopril）。这种药物有副作用吗？我还能做些什么来降低血压？任何药物都会产生副作用。因此，在开始之前，您需要与您的GP以及药剂师交谈以了解更多信息。如果您的医生为您选择了培哚普利，如果您没有感受到任何不良反应或过敏，可以继续服用。您可以采取其他降低血压的方法：例如进行规律性的日常运动，均衡饮食，保持身型体重在健康范围内。如果您的体重超重，则需要尝试减轻。这些都会帮助您降低高血压，避免恶化。

自从我的第一个孩子出生以来，我就一直遭受肠外漏的困扰，而且太尴尬而无法去看医生。我能做什么？分娩婴儿後大便或尿液漏出是很常见的。这是因为在怀孕期间和分娩後，我们的女性骨盆肌肉和周围结构由於怀孕而受到很大影响和改变。当您遇到尿液或肠漏时，重要的是要克服尴尬的感觉，去找您的全科医生或妇科医生进行检查以评估其严重性并推荐治疗方法。

在COVID-19期间，我认为在公共场所戴口罩更安全，在健身房锻炼时可以戴脸部吗？

在拥挤的公共场所戴著口罩可以帮助控制和减少由空气中散播的病毒感染。但是，在健身房锻炼时，根据所从事运动的种类，戴著口罩可能会很困难且不安全。这是因为在运动过程中，由於肺部需要扩张才能吸入空气。打比方，如果我们若只是仅仅进行肌肉重训，戴著口罩可能还勉强可以。但是，如果您需要要进行一些有氧的剧烈运动，例如跳舞，您可能需要摘下口罩做运动。因此，在当下这种COVID-19 暴发期间，您需要评估您的运动场地和体育活动类型，同时保持健康并避免在公共场所（例如健身房）中感染到COVID-19。

If you would like Dr Mira to answer your medical question, email it to editor@chungwah.org.au before 10 August 2020. 如果您想要Mira 医生回答您的医疗问题，可以在8月10日之前把问题发到editor@chungwah.org.au 的电邮地址。中华会馆《中华之声》双语季刊春季版

inger has a long history. not only in food, but also for medicinal use in China and other parts of the world. Traditionally, it has been used to remedy colds and coughs, aid in digestion, and highly effective against nausea. According to traditional Chinese “confinement” practices — also known as “the sitting month” — new mothers must rest for a full month after giving birth. Ginger is one of the most popular ingredients used in the preparation of food for confinement mothers. Chinese people believe that “wind” is the element that brings negative effects to a new mother’s body. Therefore, the mother is protected from the “wind” as well as being helped to dispel the “wind.” Ginger is a popular ingredient that is used to achieve this purpose and keep the body warm.

姜不仅是一种历史悠久的食材，也在中国和其他国家用作药疗功效。传统上，它常被使用于治疗感冒和咳嗽，促进消化，并且有效于止呕吐。根据华人传统的习俗，所谓的“坐月子”，就是新妈妈在分娩后必须休息一个月。生姜是产妇膳食中，最受欢迎的一种食材之一。华人普遍认为， “风”是一种不利元素影响新妈妈的体质。因此，要保护产妇免受风寒和把体内的“风”排出。生姜是一种十分常见的“祛风”食材，可用于达到此目的并给身体保暖。

Chinese Tea

The origins of Chinese tea dated back over 5000 years ago. It was discovered by accident in China when Seng Nung discovered tea when leaves of a tree fell into his boiling water. After drinking it, he immediately felt pleasure and interest towards this newly discovered drink.

Tea can be used in a variety of ways. Back in China, people used it as remedies and as medicine to treat the wounded. Tea is made by brewing the tree leaves in with boiling, hot water and letting it infused for some time. The result of tree leaves being brewed by boiling hot water is what you call tea. How is tea good for your health? Tea is good in multiple ways. It contains antioxidants, it can reduce your risk of a heart attack and stroke and it could potentially help protect your bones. There are different types of tea all around the world. Black tea is the most common type of tea and is about 85% of the western word’s consum ption. Black tea is oxidised and is darker in appearance, a stronger favour and a higher content of caffeine than other different types of teas. Next is green tea. Green tea is unoxidised.The leaves are heated soon after picking in order to destroy the enzymes that cause oxidation. This type of processing preserves a high level of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals accounting for the various health benefits of green tea. Finally we have Oolong tea. The oolong tea is kind of a mix between black tea and green tea as it is half-oxidised. The amount of oxidation affects the flavour and appearance of the tea. Longer oxidisation makes it more like black tea, while less oxidisation Maes it more like green tea. When steeped, Oolong tea produces golden or light brown tea with a very delicate flavour resembling neither black nor green tea. In conclusion, tea is a universal drink that is consumed by people throughout the world. Nowadays, it’s on elf the most consumed drink after water. Tea comes in different variations to suit different people! - Yongyi MA 马永一

Dragon Boat Festival

The Dragon Boat Festival occurs every year on the 5th day of the 5th month on the lunar calendar. This traditional festival has been occurring for thousands of years and commemorates the death of the famous Chinese poet and minister, Qu Yuan. On that day, many Chinese people eat ricedumplings and attend dragon boat races. When I was 11 years old, I wanted to go watch the annual dragon boat racing down at Cannington River. I had heard so much about it, but I never had the opportunity to see it. So, my parents took me there to watch the race for the first time.

Usually, during May, the weather would be chilly and windy. However, I distinctly remember looking up at the blue sky that opened to all four corners and felt the warm breeze that tickled my face as I got out of the car. The water was calm and was clear enough so you could see the bottom if you'd tried. It was a truly, a beautiful day. Then I saw the boats floating on the water, and my heart had lifted. Each boat was bursting with colour; red, orange, yellow, blue, gold and green. The rowers were clothed according to the theme of their boat, flamboyant and full of confidence. All of the eight boats lined up at the starting line, tense and competitive. 3, 2, 1,GO.

The rowers furiously paddled, and the audience cheen;d. I was so excited to see which boat would win and locked my eyes onto the race. They disappeared from my sight for a while, but it seemed like only a minute before the first boat came around the bend and began racing towards the finish line. Then another boat came racing towards the first boat and they both competed for the win. The second boat had wonthe race. Three years later, I still remember the sunshine, festivity and my first Dragon Boat Festival. - Emma Zhang 张彤

马来西亚与中国的文化

马来西亚是个多元种族的国家，有华人、马来人和印度人。听爸爸、妈妈说，我的祖先是来自中国的。虽然我的父母都是马来西亚出生的，但我们还是有多多少少保留一些华人的传统。在马来西亚的大多数华人都会遵循中国传统，但是每个城市的风格都稍微有一点不一样。

在春节时，大部分的中国人都会吃饺子，可是马来西亚华人基本上在春节时都不会吃饺子。虽然每个城市都有各自的庆祝方式，我们还是多多少少保留一些中国的传统文化。例如团圆饭、守岁、拜年、舞狮等等。中国新年除夕的时候，大部数的小孩都会兴奋到无法入睡，看着美丽的烟花灿烂了整个夜空。饮食生活起居改变，也随着当地的文化有所改变。不像在中国，马来西亚华人倾向于道地的美食。就比如马来人和印度人的食物，我们都会常常吃。最常见的就是马来西亚的椰浆饭，我们都会经常吃。虽然我们都来自不一样的国家，但是我们的文化价值观还是很相似的。 - 郑凯菱

少林寺

去年年底，我参加了由中国侨联组织的冬令营, 去了河南，我一直盼望的少林之行终于来到了。少林寺是中国河南省登封县的禅宗佛教寺庙。据说少林寺始建于北魏太和十九年，至今1500 多年了。少林寺是少林佛教学校的主要寺庙。我从很多电影中都听说过少林寺、少林足球。这一天，我们很早就醒了，吃完早餐, 然后上车。一路上，我们大家都很兴奋和好奇。三个小时后，我们到达了少林寺。我非常兴奋. 我们走进了少林寺的大门, 看到了很多寺庙和古老的建筑，最精彩的是看到了少林武功表演。表演武功的都是和我们一样大的孩子，可是他们的武功好极了，就像电影里一样。我很想跟他们打功夫，但是我現在没沒有机令，也许将来吧。少林寺，我会再回来的。 - Joshua Wylie 万里思明

肉骨茶

小的时候，爸爸妈妈经常会带我回去马亚探望爷爷，奶奶来西，和我的堂弟堂妹。有一天，爷爷带着我到了附近小贩中心的一家摊位，说要请我骨茶。吃肉肉骨茶是南洋特有的美食，也是爷爷最爱的一道美食。每当说起了关于肉骨茶的事，爷爷的眼会两眼发光，充满睛就了喜悦。传统的肉骨茶都会放些胡椒的辣味和在汤里蒜头的香味，但我却喜欢汤里那一块块鲜美的排骨。

爷爷跟摊位老板打了招呼，点了两碗肉骨茶，并带着我找了座位，等着我们的美食上桌。这时爷爷开始讲起肉骨茶背后的故事在十八世纪，马来。他说，西亚被英国统治期间，许多在矿里工作的苦力都因为矿里的寒气，导致他们的身体状态都不是很好，积劳成疾。但这些苦力连看医补药的钱都没有。生或买后来，有一位仁慈的锡场老板，他很体恤矿工们辛苦，而且还懂得一点中药医理，于是就吩咐厨房熬一锅药材肉骨汤给员工们驱寒。这碗用肉骨熬制药材的汤成了矿工们驱寒，消除疲劳最美味的一餐。不仅如此，这碗汤不但营养丰富，并汤清味浓。肉骨茶这道美食本身不包含茶叶，因为通常被人们称为药药汤茶，于是这碗用肉骨熬制药材的汤被称为肉骨茶。它从最初属于穷人的食物，被不断的改进，并发展成为今日无论贫富或男女老幼都爱享用的著名美食之一，叫人赞不绝口。说完故事，我们点的肉骨茶就来了。那汤美味，风味独特，让人香浓赞不绝口。还有，汤里一块块的排骨更是让我回味无穷，一次又一次的想再吃，肉骨茶真不辜负了世界美食之一的声誉。 - Ashley Hii

磕瓜子 - 我亲身体验的有趣的中华文

化

用舌尖轻轻托起，慢慢地向尾部磕去，发出清脆的响声，然后用舌轻巧一卷，从何时起，嗑瓜子已成为我的一种嗜好瓜子仁自然地滑进嘴里。不知；享受琳琅满目的瓜子品种以及口味变成了一种消磨时光的习惯。从亚洲超市走出来，购物车里总会每次我装几袋葵瓜子。然而，瓜子在一般澳洲的超市里却是极为少见，些早已剥好了壳并且“毫无灵魂”的瓜子即使有，也是那。很难想象，嗑瓜子居然是中国的传统国粹，也是一种奇特的文化。葵瓜子的历史可以从明朝追溯起。中国最早记载葵瓜子的文献是康熙年间的《桃源乡志》花，又名向日葵，色有紫黄白，其子老，其原文是： “葵可食。 ”事实上，西瓜子才是中国土生土长的瓜子，而葵花跟南瓜都是属于美洲的农作物，清朝才慢慢流入中国的。蔡澜先生曾评价过瓜子之所以如此令人上瘾的原因： “第一，它不甜也不咸，不容易腻；食用；第三，永远都吃不饱；第四，瓜子有第二，要剥了壳才可种令人上头的香味。 ”正是因为嗑瓜子是一个简短的“正反深受老百姓的爱戴。中国人过年要馈”的过程，才嗑瓜子并把瓜子摆在糖果盘里招待客人的习俗也是由来于古代。古时的日里嗑瓜子叫做穷磕，而过年嗑瓜子人平叫做磕穷，寓意着来年会摆脱贫穷。外国人无法理解为何要把唇齿舌尖训练的如此精密，却只为获取一点点带有香味的食物。人的一种独有的文化，也只有中国人因此瓜子是中国优逸的性格才比较适合去慢慢享受嗑瓜子的乐趣。

中华中文学校在校防疫措施

7月25日，2020年度下半年学期开始，中华中文学校恢复返校教学。在这之前，校方就根据政府部门的要求，制定并提交了疫情期间的安全防护措施相关文件。之后，在与学生及家长的书面和口头沟通中，各校反复强调各项防疫要求，疫情期间家长禁止进入校园；老师带领班级排队到校门外接送区；学生在校上学期间彼此保持足够的距离；避免肢体接触、勤洗手、保证足够的洗手时间；学生和教师如有感冒不适必须留在家中休息等等。中华会馆给中文学校的老师和学生们发放了医用口罩，作为备用。每个班级都领取了免水消毒洗手液，并在上课期间保证师生随时可以取用。通过这些措施，小朋友们养成了良好的卫生习惯，我们的防疫效果也非常好。

Health measures at Chung Wah Chinese school during Covid-19 On 25 July 2020, the beginning of the school term for the second half of 2020, Chung Wah Chinese school resumed their face-to-face lessons for students at the school grounds. Before the commencement of classes, the school management had compiled with the necessary documentation regarding the health and safety measures during Covid-19, for the government department’s approval, to ensure they met all the requirements. After the approval, we notified parents and students of the commencement in writing, and in some cases, through verbal communication. All Chung Wah Chinese schools repeatedly emphasised the requirements of the health measures: parents were not allowed to enter the school ground; teachers will supervised children between classes and at the pickup/drop off points; social distancing was monitored during school hours; students were being advised to avoid physical contact, frequent hand washing and sufficient time for hand washing is encouraged; students or teachers should remain at home if feeling unwell or if any symptoms develop. Chung Wah Association provided medical-use face masks to teachers and students of our Chinese schools, to be used when necessary. Every class is supplied with hand sanitiser to ensure teachers and students have access to it anytime. Following all these health and safety procedures, our children are trained in keeping good personal hygiene, making sure our health measures are effective.
