在充滿年輕活力的歡笑聲與漫天飛舞的水花中，國立暨南國際大學校園內展開了一場別開生面的文化盛宴。僑生先修部緬甸特別輔導班於4月10日盛大舉辦「緬甸傳統新年潑水節」活動，邀請校內約180名來自緬甸、越南、馬來西亞及台灣本地的學子共襄盛舉，不僅重現了東南亞最重要的傳統節慶，更深刻傳遞了校方對境外生無微不至的關懷與支持。
暨大校長武東星表示，暨大長期以來視境外生為校園大家庭的重要成員，學校除了提供優質的學術資源，更致力於成為學子們在台灣「第二個溫暖的家」。武校長強調，舉辦潑水節不僅是為了讓學生在忙碌的課業之餘能放鬆心靈，更是校園展現多元包容與友善國際氛圍的最佳實踐，讓每一位離鄉背井的學子都能感受到暨大最真摯的關懷與陪伴。
Amid youthful laughter and splashes of water filling the air, National Chi Nan University (NCNU) hosted a vibrant cultural celebration on campus. On April 10, the Myanmar Special Preparatory Program of the Overseas Chinese Preparatory Division organized a grand celebration of the Myanmar Traditional New Year Water Festival (Thingyan). Approximately 180 students from Myanmar, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Taiwan joined the festivities. The event not only recreated one of Southeast Asia’s most significant traditional celebrations but also conveyed the university’s heartfelt care and support for its international students.
NCNU President Wu Tung-Hsing stated that the university has long regarded international students as important members of its campus community. In addition to providing high-quality academic resources, NCNU is committed to becoming a warm “second home” for students during their stay in Taiwan. President Wu emphasized that the Water Festival was organized not only to give students an opportunity to relax and recharge amid their busy academic schedules, but also to put the university’s commitment to diversity, inclusion, and an internationally friendly campus environment into practice. Through such activities, NCNU hopes that every student living far from home can experience the university’s sincere care, support, and companionship.
