Taiwan, also known as Formosa, promises US$100,000 for flood and landslide relief efforts in Honduras.
Her Excellency Vivia Chang, Ambassador of Taiwan (Formosa) to Honduras, stated the donation would be used to assist in reconstructing the Colonia Guillen neighborhood in the capital city of Tegucigalpa after floods and landslides destroyed many homes in the area. Funds would also help provide the citizens evacuated from the neighborhood with temporary shelter. The Honduran Minister of Foreign Affairs, His Excellency Eduardo Enrique Reina, thanked Taiwan (Formosa) on behalf of his country for supporting the Honduran citizens. Taiwan (Formosa) is a recipient of a Shining World Leadership Award and two Shining World Leadership Awards for Compassion, as well as a Shining World Leadership Award for Unconditional Love laureate. Our gratitude, Taiwan (Formosa), for your beneficent act for a country in need. May other nations see your charitable initiative as a shining example, in Heaven’s loving generosity.
Study in United States finds COVID-19 pandemic may have significantly altered personalities of younger adults.
A study led by researchers from the Florida State University College of Medicine has uncovered that during the January 2021 to February 2022 period of the pandemic, the ordinarily stable personality traits of younger people were substantially changed as compared to their pre-pandemic state. Middle-aged persons experienced shifts to a lesser degree, while seniors showed no statistically significant difference. The measure was the “big five” psychological traits: openness, agreeableness, extroversion, conscientiousness, and neuroticism. These usually change gradually as we age. However, from January 2021 to February 2022 when COVID-19 was spreading rapidly, adults under 30 became significantly less open, agreeable, extroverted and conscientious as well as more neurotic. The personality shift in younger individuals that occurred was so great that usually it would only happen after one decade of aging. Thank you, Florida State University researchers and all involved, for helping to reveal some of the hidden effects of COVID-19 on humans. In God’s Blessings, may humanity soon go fully vegan to bring peace to the planet and an end to the spread of zoonotic diseases. Vegan: 4 a better world.
Up next on Noteworthy News, Denmark launches climate change funding initiative for developing nations.

Good day, inquisitive viewers, it’s Oren, a vegan gentleman from the Oranda Goldfish kingdom! It’s a beautiful day to visit nature. Maybe you can go to a pond and say hallo to my cousins there. They’d be appreciative of your loving intentions. I would like to share a recipe tip with you! Did you know cabbage is very versatile and can be made as either a side or main dish? To prepare it, start by rinsing one medium head of cabbage and slice it into six wedges. Pour water into a big skillet or Dutch oven until approximately 1.25 centimeters deep. Next, toss in your cabbage along with 1/2 teaspoon or 2.5 grams of salt. Cover and let it simmer for about eight to ten minutes. Then carefully flip over the cabbage and simmer for another six to eight minutes or until it’s soft. Drain out the water and keep it as a stock for further cooking use. Put the pan back on the stove on low heat until all the moisture has evaporated. Drop in two to four tablespoons or 25 to 50 grams of melted vegan butter or olive oil, and evenly distribute it to thoroughly coat the boiled cabbage. Lastly, season to taste with pepper or your favorite spices and you’re ready to serve! This is a simple and easy recipe your guests will enjoy! Bon appétit! Much love for Being Veg and Going Green 2 Save the Planet for all humans and us all co-inhabitants. Thank you for watching. And now for the weather around the world.
Denmark government allocates funds to compensate damage arising from climate change in underdeveloped countries.
Denmark became the first United Nations member to initiate financial support of developing nations adversely impacted by the climate crisis by pledging over US$13 million. The amount will be dedicated to the Sahel region in northwestern Africa and other affected areas. The Danish Minister for Development and Nordic Cooperation, His Excellency Flemming Møller Mortensen, eloquently stated, “It is grossly unfair that the world’s poorest should suffer the most from the consequences of climate change, to which they have contributed the least.” Over 400 advocacy organizations are urging that “loss and damage” finance be part of the agenda for the COP27 Climate Conference to be held in November 2022 in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. We are gratified to learn of this humanitarian endeavor, Your Excellency Flemming Møller Mortensen and Denmark. In the guidance of Heaven, we pray that climate change will be quickly eradicated by humanity switching to compassionate lifestyles.
Quarter of Qatar’s public bus fleet now comprised of green vehicles.
The government of Qatar recently succeeded in its goal of converting 25% of its buses to eco-friendly electric models. The nation also plans to have all public and school transport vehicles electric by 2030, as it moves to protect the environment by limiting the number of gasoline vehicles operating on its roads. Major transport company Mowasalat has also managed to shift all of its taxis to electric hybrid models that use the electric motor at low speeds, and a highly efficient, low-emission gasoline engine when required. Good news, Qatar, on your green shift to eco-friendly transportation. In the Grace of Allah, may your dignified citizens be blessed, as they enjoy clean air and healthy lives.
Suffocating baby saved by policewoman in United States.
Oxford, Mississippi, police officer Atziri Ortiz recently successfully dislodged an object caught in an infant’s throat. Officer Ortiz, extolled as a hero, raced to the location from which the emergency call was placed after hearing the dispatcher’s announcement. She grabbed the child and initiated lifesaving protocols. Holding the infant in an inverted position, she tapped the baby’s back repeatedly. Her body camera filmed the incident, which was released by the Oxford Police Department on social media. The infant, who was taken to a nearby hospital to be evaluated, has recovered from the incident. The Oxford Police Department honored Officer Ortiz with a Life-Saving Award for her heroic actions. We are grateful to you, Officer Atziri Ortiz, for saving a precious child’s life, and pray the baby is healthy and strong. In the grandeur of the Divine, may we always appreciate the selfless actions of law enforcement and medical personnel. Let’s not make any excuse 4 war. Let’s find all the reasons 4 peace.

Artificial intelligence (AI)-based platform created in Korea for diagnosing injured canine-people.
SK Telecom, Korea’s largest mobile network operator, in cooperation with various universities in Korea, has developed the web-based service X Caliber to help veterinarians in treating dog-persons. The system, which integrates big data and diagnostic videos, can identify 17 types of cardiothoracic and musculoskeletal conditions by analyzing X-ray images. Veterinarians can upload the images using a mobile device or PC, and then receive results from X Caliber anytime, anywhere. The system can provide a diagnosis with over 80% accuracy within a minute, and will be available on a subscription basis to vet clinics. SK Telecom plans to support the diagnosis of feline-person patients in the future. Kudos, SK Telecom and associated universities, for developing this innovative AI-based platform that assists veterinarians in aiding canine-individuals. In Buddha’s infinite wisdom, may your state-of-the-art technology help advance overall care for our loving animal friends.

And now we have a heartline from Xin-Hua in China:
Hallo, Respected Master and the Supreme Master TV team! The situation on Earth is getting more and more difficult. Methane produced by belches and releases of animal-people raised by the livestock industry has caused the global temperatures to rise, resulting in natural disasters occurring all over the world. The COVID pandemic has caused millions of fatalities. And, as if it’s not tumultuous enough, individual leaders have created a world-shaking human disaster – invading other countries!
Materially speaking, leaders of all nations and religions play an important leading role in maintaining world peace and promoting the development of each country and even the world. On August 24, 2011, Master earnestly suggested to world leaders auspicious locations for their headquarters in each country. Each of the locations was so preciously bestowed by Heaven, full of high spiritual Blessing Power, Wisdom, and Love. However, worldly people are busy with things they consider very important; and it seems countries which recognized the “treasure” and took action were very few. What a pity!
The world has over and over again failed to live up to the grand Love and benevolence of an enlightened Master, and thus has been deeply caught in maya’s trap, repeatedly killing each other in an inescapable cycle. I humbly suggest and pray that all governments consider moving their capital’s offices away from the negative and dark places as soon as possible, thus avoiding the negative influences from portals, sub-portals, and passages leading to hell and the lower worlds. Move to where Spiritual Blessing Portals are located, which lead to Heaven as recommended by Supreme Master Ching Hai, thus enjoy “Auspicious Locations for Leaders’ New Headquarters, a Boon for World Peace!” Please rule your countries with bountiful Love and Wisdom from Heaven, to bring everlasting peace, safety, and good health to all human beings and animal-people! Leave your noble mark for the continuation and prosperity of the Earth! Respectfully, Your disciple, Xin-Hua from China
Hope-filled Xin-Hua, Our appreciation for sharing your thoughtful observations. We, too, echo your sentiments and find it hard to understand why it is that the world is torn by conflict when we could all be rallying together for the highest good of all beings. Thank you for reiterating these truths about the need for constructive leadership by governments globally. May the Godses bless you and the observant Chinese people with peace and fruitful lives. In Universal Wisdom, Supreme Master TV team
P.S. Master has this message for you: “Benevolent Xin-Hua, recent events concerning the leaders in the member states of the European Union increasing their support of Ukraine, have shown that it is never too late for positive changes to take place. I am relieved to see this. As I continue to speak the Truth, I pray that the Divine may guide the actions of the world leaders to unite in peace and create a vegan world. Much Love to you, and may you and attentive China delight in Buddha’s abundant Light.”
“Although our physical eyes can’t see it, no good or bad deed, however small, goes unnoted... Every human being born in this world is bestowed by God a higher spiritual capability than other created beings so that we humans may take care of the weaker beings for Him.” ~ The Collection of Saintly Teachings (Cao Đài-ism)
