David Chu: Nothing we've seen on TV, cinema or reads on books, magazines about China world have prepares us for the splendor that we witnessed over the past 18 days. We owe all of this to you, the dedicated staff of the O.C.A.C, and we thank you for your generosity and hard work that made this trip possible for us.

We've learned a great deal from this tour. From the trip to the Great Wall to the visits of local universities, showed us, granted us a better understanding on what is truly meant to be a Chinese. The tour also showed that we have so many things to be proud of by being a Chinese. We can lift our head and proudly to say: I am Chinese!

Wang, Ta-Chung: I'm grateful for this chance to visit China. This root-seeking tour will never be forgotten and affect the course of our lives. As a second generation of South Africa Chinese who still can read and speak Chinese, I found China as a stranger but yet so familiar. After the tour I think I understand China more, the China I saw though my own eyes, understand people of China more, understand cultural of China more. In Beijing architectures and relics perfectly maintained and preserved for the dynasties with the cultural within them.

Even the building itself preserved cultural and forms a part of China. While Beijing is such a city with contradict to the image of China in my head completely. As for food, part of the Chinese cultural, somewhat more exotic food was experienced during staying in Meijou. The food can almost tell the hardship Hakka people had to endure while they left their homeland. Guangzhou also showed it's determination to cater the best meal ever. Once more, I want to express the gratefulness to have the opportunities on the tour. Thank you for all the work one done to make this happen!
