Subsequently, Mr. Toh Soon Huat BBM / PVPA shared the programme on Mother’s Day celebrations on 14 May 2017 when over 217,600 flowers will be distributed island-wide by over 2,000 volunteers of Sian Chay. Chairman Toh Soon Huat demonstrated on how a volunteer should distribute the flowers to the public and welcomed the guests to come forward for a demonstration.
Mr. Toh said that maternal love was the world’s greatest and most selfless love, which represents the sun and rain that can moisten everything. At the same time, he hoped that all the participants of Mother’s Day celebrations would help to distribute the flowers to ladies, gentlemen, and even children, because everyone had a great mother behind him or her, and every mother had a pair of invisible wings.
Mr. Toh’s sharing touched the heart of everyone present .
A number of attendees were deeply touched and made present donations to support Sian Chay. They also advocated all to support the charity cause of Sian Chay.
The spirit of selfless universal love reflects Mr. Toh’s attitude towards life. He practised his beliefs with love which is to serve the community, and to payback to the community. His love also led more people to follow and practice good deeds.
“Respectful trust, respectful approach, respectful attitude, respectful conduct are respectable and honourable virtues of charitable work.” As advocated by Mr. Toh, his code of conduct and motto of life have influenced more people towards kindness.
At the end of the event, Mr. Toh Soon Huat shared: “Your every $ 10 donation can benefit one low-income patient to receive a free traditional medical consultation, free medicine, tuina therapy or wellness service. You will be able to help the sick to seek relief from pain and suffering , gain happiness and create a blissful family and harmonious society.”
Inspired by Confucianism’s noble faith of “To cultivate the moral self, manage the family, maintain the state integrity and peace for all.”, Mr. Toh Soon Huat promotes the 5 core values of Sian Chay, which are Forgiveness, Universal Love, Compassion, Gratitude and Blessing. He also promotes the idea of symbiosis between the lives of individuals and organizations with the nation’s destiny, “To support the nation-building and the social harmony . Serving the society, payback to the society. To continue the Chinese tradition of mutual help and the noble vision of compassion. To provide the public with free traditional medical consultation, low-cost medication, tuna therapy and wellness services regardless of race, religion or nationality. To serve the community and benefit more people.” This kind of love and the spirit is a boundless universal love as well as the noble faith of “being the first to bear hardships, and the last to enjoy comfort.”
Loving heart will bring sunshine around us. Everyone’s loving heart will bring prosperity to the nation, and abundance to its people.
