[MANNAM Int'L] Guess what is on Turkish News TRT!


[MANNAM Int'L] Guess what is on Turkish News TRT!
 

Do you know what TRT stand for?
TRT stand for the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation. It is the national public broadcasting station in Turkey, which was established in 1964.
In this Turkish national broadcaster, they telecast MANNAM international's peace awareness project, 'MANNAM 10Km In Their Shoes'.
This peace walk was held in 2011 and it was broadcasted in Turkish national News more than one time!

In 2011, MANNAM held '10K In Their Shoes' to share and remind the natural disaster that affect many countries, especially Turkey, Thailand, Japan and Pakistan. On exactly same date, MANNAM International friends walked together in each regions to remind the natural disaster and people who are still recovering their lives again from Tsunami and other disasters.

This meaningful event was on air through Turkish national News.
The disater happened years ago, but people are still suffering due to that.
It would be one of world news that swiftly passed away from our memory, but it is a fact that people are still trying so hard to get back on their daily lives before the natural disaster happened.

We MANNAM International wanted many people around the world, to remind the natural disasters, and wanted to give hope and message to people that we still remember you guys.
Cheer up! We remember you and hope you can recover the disater as soon as possible.

MANNAM: international Student interview


MANNAM: international Student interview

When we had an MANNAM international party, there was a good voice and fluent speaking in English MC. I asked my friend, “Who is he?” ” Alex is a young prospective man from China”, she said.

Nowadays, the number of international students has been increasing in Korea universities. I am wondering how the other countries students handle with peace. In China, with the increase in economic, how peace matter is important among young generation?

Q: Alex! You seems smart. I’m curious what you want to be in the future.

A: Oh, that’s not true. I want to be a professor of civil engineering in Korea or Singapore.


Q: As a student, what have you done for peace?

A: Personally? I’ve given up my selfish idea and shamefully, I’ve not done that much for peace, I think. In this year, participating in Peace Walk with MANNAM international was my first try for peace. At that time, it was so hot and hard to stand under the sun. After that day, I was surprised to the reports of Peace Walk on the news. So I got started to have more interests on it now.

A: yes, Peace is possible, but it takes long time.

Q: What do you think what should we do for World peace?

A: For first step, we need to extend education about peace since we’re young. If we were educated since we are young, we could be messengers of peace. Plus, we should have more volunteering work in other countries which have no opportunity of education.

Now, he is planning to move to the other city in Korea. But, he promised he will go on volunteer work with MANNAM!! Wherever you go, we are connected through MANNAM.
