4 華報
主編的信我們收藏著各種各樣關於華埠的故事，每個故事背後的含義都將我們深深地聯繫在一起。例如居民、店主、工人、業主、社區組織成員、教會成員、嘉士樂小學 (Castelar) 的學生及愛盼 (Alpine) 籃球隊隊員的故事。
不管我們如何看待華埠，我們都被這個充滿含義，獨一無二的地方聯繫在一起。它是我們積極參加活動的理由，是我們親仁善鄰的居處。華埠正在改變，而那些改變應該是在共同意願的引導下，在當前環境的影響下，顯示我們的特色，使我們形形色色的商鋪生意更加火熱。
這一期的《華報》將帶您去了解從關於社區慶祝新華埠80週年的事並開始建立對於華埠未來的設想。除了各種各樣的地方故事，我們還會推出夏季藝術展覽，讓我們與讀者一起共同回憶過去，共同展望未來。我們希望讀者們都可以和我們一起慶祝華埠的過去，現在，與未來！
友情編輯 譚洛蓮，博士羅省同源會、羅省華人歷史學會
EDITOR’S LETTERWe all have so many different stories about Chinatown that show how we are tied to the neighborhood—res-ident, business owner, worker, property owner, com-munity organization member, church member, Castelar student, Alpine basketball team member, to name a few.
Regardless of how we identify and what we know about Chinatown, we are all united by the common theme that Chinatown has a special, distinct meaning for all of us. It is what motivates us to continue to be involved and care for the neighborhood. Chinatown is also changing, and these changes should be guided by a collective vision that will address the needs and strengthen the current assets that make the neighborhood special.
This issue highlights these different stories to commem-orate New Chinatown’s 80th birthday, and begin a conversation around the development of a community vision to guide its future. Along with the stories featured in the magazine, our team is putting together a series of art installations across the neighborhood to engage the community on memories and hopes for tomorrow. We hope everyone will join in and celebrate Chinatown’s past, present and future with us!

MINIMUM WAGE INCREASES IN CITY OF LA羅省市最低工資在七月提升 On July 1, the minimum wage in the City of LA increases again, based on the schedule adopted by the City Council in 2015. Nationwide, organizers have pushed cities to pass laws advocating “living wages” and paid sick leave for workers. Over the years, wage stagnation left many strug-gling to meet basic needs. According to a 2017 study by Harvard University, the LA area is one of the most expensive housing markets in the U.S., with more than 57% of Angele-nos spending more than 30% of their income on housing. The Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority consistently names low income and rising housing costs as major factors driving the homelessness crisis. Meanwhile, business advocates have also spoken out about how higher minimum wages increase operational costs. For more information on wages in the City of LA, visit www.wagesla.lacity.org.
根據羅省市議會在2015年通過的法律，由7/1開始，羅省市的最低工資將會提升。在美國各地的城市，有些社區組織者要求市政府提高工資並批准帶薪病假的福利。近年來，薪資停滯導致平民難以滿足基本需求。在2017年， 哈佛大學一個調查報告表明羅省是美國唯一最昂貴的住房市場 之一。大楷57%的市民每月收入超過30%是用在房租上。根據洛杉磯遊民服務機構 (Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority) 的報告，近年遊民迅速增加的原因是房租不斷上漲和薪資停滯。同時，有些小生意也表示，工資提升也提高了成本。如需羅省市最低工資和帶薪病假的資料，請參考 www.wagesla.lacity.org。

NEIGHBORS TALK鄰舍對白
WAPOW’S TEEN CONTRIBUTOR DAVID LIU TOOK TO THE STREETS AND ALLEYWAYS OF CHINATOWN TO CATCH NEIGHBORHOOD VIBES.
SEE WHAT LYNNETTE, 25, AND THEODORE, 45, HAD TO SAY.
華報的青少年記者劉國偉在大街小巷，跟居民和遊客討論社區話題。以下是25歲Lynette和45歲Theo-dore的意見。
D: ANY THOUGHTS ON THE RECENT STREET VENDING ORDINANCE?你對於羅省街頭販賣合法化有意見嗎？
L: I don’t see a big deal with people selling on the sidewalk. 我覺得沒有什麼問題。
T: I think they should allow street vend-ing. It is a definite income-starter for working class people. 應該允許大家在街上賣東西。街頭販賣可以幫助人們創造收入。
D: DID YOU HEAR ABOUT CLOSURE OF THE LA RECYCLING CENTER (960 N MAIN)?回收中心關閉對你有影響嗎？
T: Many of my friends use the recycling center for a supplement income, so the closure is going to have an impact on the community.我有許多的朋友利用回收中心來增加收入，所以對他們可能有不好的影響。
D: HOW DO YOU STAY COOL IN THE SUMMER?你在夏天如何避暑？
L: I stay hydrated with water and car-ry a hydroflask with me. I know some people go to the beach. 我去哪裡都帶水瓶。我知道有些人也會去海灘。
T: I stay cool under the ficus trees at Alpine Recreation Center. I’m a mar-tial artist so I practice a lot over there. I basically stay around the cooler areas of Los Angeles—which is here. 我在 Alpine Park 的樹蔭下乘涼。我經常在那兒練功夫。羅省最酷的地方—就是華埠！

Other California state executive offices, as well as local and statewide mea-sures will also be decided. Keep an eye out for candidate debates and forums to learn more about who and what you will be voting on.
WHY VOTE?
In American democracy, voters can decide on ballot measures and elect representatives to serve in government on our behalf. Public officials make policies and decisions that affect our daily lives, from education and housing to immigration and translation accessibility. Historically however, uneven voter participation rates across demographic groups have raised concerns about government represen-tation.

‘A BRIDGE HOME’ CREATES TEMPORARY SUPPORTIVE HOUSING SHELTERS「橋之家」計畫為遊民供應臨時住所 About 309 people experience homelessness on any given night in Chinatown. In recent years, voters in LA City and County approved tax measures to address homelessness. “A Bridge Home” is an initiative of LA Mayor Eric Garcetti looking to move up to 1,500 homeless people into temporary supportive shelter in the next six months, with the ultimate goal of connecting individuals to permanent housing.
The first shelter is expected to open this summer at a parking lot near El Pueblo with 45 beds. It will also include services such as rehabilitation and job training. Several other sites are being considered, including a lot by the Homeboy Diner, just outside Chinatown.
As increased housing demand has driven up rents, many low-income individuals and families have become at risk of homelessness. While shelters help, communities emphasize the need to create more housing at affordable rents, and increase income with jobs and job training.
根據洛杉磯遊民服務機構 (Los Angeles Homeless Services Author-ity)，2017 年羅省華埠地區約有309名遊民。近年來，在羅省市和羅省縣，公眾投票通過幾個計畫是提升消費稅，以求化解遊民問題。「橋之家」(A Bridge Home) 是羅省市長賈西提（Eric Garcetti）的計畫，想在下半年之內為 1,500 名遊民供應臨時住所。
第一個遊民住所將會夏天在古城 (El Pueblo Historical Monument) 附近的停車場開放，包括45個床位和現場提供的職業培訓、精神疾病治療等。目前計劃是在其他地方開同類的臨時住所，包括在華埠附近Homeboy Diner 的停車場。
近年來， 加州住房短缺問題是對低收入的平民最大影響。有些人說雖然臨時住所是有幫助遊民的問題， 但最主要是建造經濟實惠出租房和增加工作機會與職業培訓。

Asian亞裔
15% 12%
African American非裔美國人

According to the Public Policy Institute of California, California became the first large majority-minority state after the 2000 Census. Asians and Latinos are today the fastest growing groups in the state. But while populations are increas-ing, lagging voter participation raises concerns that constituent interests, needs and values are not adequately reflected in government. At the same time, mo-bilizing voters in those groups that are historically underrepresented can swing elections.
WHAT DO WE VOTE ON?
Voters receive ballots based on where they live, pertaining to matters directly im-pacting them. For example, in the Novem-ber election, all California voters will be able to help decide on a new governor; but not all voters can vote in the race for State Senate District 24. Only residents living within impacted boundaries are able to vote for local representatives or ballot measures, such as special taxes or new policies.
為何要投票？
在美國民主制度中，選民可以通過投票方式，選出能代表我們的政府官員服務社區。公職人員制定影響我們日常生活的各種政策及決議，包括：教育與住房、移民與輔助翻譯。然而，從不同族裔選民之投票率比例顯示，民選官員對於有關結果感到憂慮。
據加州公共政策研究所報告，2000年人口普查後，加州已經成為全美第一最大少數族裔之州。亞裔及拉美裔目前是加州發展最快的族群。儘管人口數量不斷增加，但選民不熱衷參與投票令人們感到擔憂，這種現象令政府欠缺資訊瞭解相關族群的需求和價值。與此同時，經驗告訴我們，只要能動員這些被視作代表性不足之族群，就可以對選舉結果造成重大影響。
我們要投些甚麼？
選民根據他們居住的地點所收到之選票，內容都是直接影響他們的事項。例如：即將來臨的11月6日大選，所有加州選民都可以投票選出新的州長，但並非所有加州選民可參與第24區州參議員選舉。只有居住在有關選區內之選民，才能對該選區所制定之新政策或特殊徵稅作出投票。
聯邦 : 國會眾議員，國會參議員。
州 : 州長及其他州級官員，州參議員、州眾議員、議案及全民公投等。
地方 : 包括縣、市、學區教委、水利局董事等代表，徵稅提案及其他議案等。
關於更多選民登記和選舉資訊
請瀏覽 www.lavote.net 查看您的註冊情況，查找您的投票地點，查看投票內容或登記成為選民。目前，加州年滿16歲就可以預先登記，一旦滿18歲就可以參與投票。您也可以註冊申請通訊投票。

OTHER PROJECTS其它項目
Many development projects are going on in and around Chinatown. While this can bring new housing and job opportunities, many residents express concerns about how larger developments may have neg-ative impacts, including stresses on local infrastructure like streets and emergency response. Some also point out that when new units are priced too high, local resi-dents are unable to afford and landlords may be encouraged to increase rents.
許多開發項目正在華埠及周邊地區進行。雖然這可以帶來新的住房和就業機會，但許多居民對大型發展的負面影響表示擔憂，包括對街道和緊急響應等當地基礎設施的壓力。有人還指出，當新單位定價過高時，當地居民無力承擔，但可能會鼓勵業主增加租金。

平時有時間我會去 shopping，還有喝早茶，我覺得在 Chinatown 很方便。不用開車就能到處走。在這裡住得很舒服。住一輩子也願意。自從Chinatown 多了一個公園，我夜多了一個可以去散步的地方。When I have time, I like going shopping and having morning tea. I feel like Chinatown is very convenient. I can get around without a car. Living here is very comfortable. I’d be willing to live here for the rest of my life. Now that China-town has a new park, I have another place to stroll.TOM T.
I grew up in Hong Kong and that’s part of why my partner and I moved to Chi-natown. The streets and restaurants and people here remind me of the place I happily once called home, and still think of that way.我在香港長大，這也是我與我的伴侶選擇居住在華埠的原因。這裡的街道、餐館和人讓我想起了那個讓我曾經稱之為家的地方。

My grandparents live here. They came from Hong Kong in the 60s, and my mom grew up here. It was always fun exploring my grandparents basement for old family memorabilia. I browse even today! Over the past two years I found a great photo of my grand-parents, aunts, and mom on a front porch—she must have been around 3. 我的祖父母住在這裡。他們是在六十年代從香港來的，我的母親也在這裡長大。從祖父母的地下室裡到處探索到的舊物件總是很有趣。我到今時還有去！在過去的兩年裡，我找到了一張有我的祖父母，阿姨和母親三歲時在家門口拍攝的的合影。

I was born in Chinatown and lived there with my extended family for half of my adult life. My mother and niece still live here. I visit regularly and always feel it is necessary to stay close to my roots.我在華埠出生并和家人一起在這裡居住了大半輩子。我的母親和姪女現在依然住在這裡。我經常回來因為我覺得必需從根。CONNIE
I was a worker in J town in the 60’s and 70’s. I have been active in Chinatown since the Yellow Brothers. I was a community youth worker. We followed Black Panther ideology to serve the people. We worked with prisoners, at-risk youth and drug addicts; did handyman work for the elderly and had a childcare program. We also worked with restaurant workers, the poor, and immigrants… [I remember] the tuff wars and rumbles between Alpine and Wah Ching gangs in the ’60s and ’70s. Major changes are that all the single old men and the hotels are both gone. There are a lot more women here now. And of course the gentrification every-where in Chinatown. All the monster structures, causing the rent to go up. 六七十年代的時候，我在日本城工作。我從『Yellow Brothers』時期就活躍於華埠了。作為社區青年服務員，我們在黑豹黨的理念影響下服務他人。我們的服務對象包括囚犯、危險少年與嗜毒者。我們幫助老人、幫忙照看兒童，並為餐廳服務員、低收入者及移民者提供服務。 我對六七十年代時候的愛盼幫 (Alpine) 和華青幫 (Wah Ching) 之間的幫派鬥爭記憶猶新。現在最大的改變就是單身老年男性和旅館都消失了，女性人口增加了不少。遍地都是社區高檔化，各種新的高樓大廈的建設則導致租金上漲。MO
The pace at which new housing devel-opments are being built is quickening; I’m concerned about availability of affordable housing for many who cannot afford to live here. I’m thankful China-town is once again receiving well-de-served attention as an epicenter of art, food, and entertainment. But worry that if not properly managed, it could become a part of LA where only those with finan-cial means can play.當新房在加速落成，我擔心平價房不應需求。我很感激華埠能再次成為藝術，飲食和娛樂的中心；但我擔心如果沒有處理好，只有富有的人才能生存。JACK
This neighborhood gave haven to those from a distant world to feel welcomed. My memories here make up the founda-tion of my beliefs—if you work hard and have community support, then there’s nothing you can’t achieve. The devel-opment of Blossom Plaza has been a double edged sword—it brought more diversity to challenge the status quo, and I deeply admire the investment; but rent is exorbitant and obviously not targeted to the norm here.這個社區可作為遠方來客的避風我深感成功是努力工作與社區關愛的結晶。Blossom Plaza 的建立是個雙刃劍，它增添了多樣性但也造成了不穩定。投資很好，但高漲的租金似乎並不適合當地人。CARTER
Major changes occurred after the Vietnam War with the influx of migrants from Southeast Asia—Vietnamese, Chi-nese, Cambodian. That’s when houses started getting torn down and replaced by apartments… I’m concerned about housing for seniors. A lot of the new high rises are not for low-income or working middle-class. I’m concerned more people will be displaced due to gentrification.MARY ANNE

I grew up in Silverlake but my parents worked in Chinatown and I attended Chinese School on the weekends. I also frequented the Chinatown Library back when it was at Castelar. 我在 Silverlake 長大，但父母工作在華埠，而且我週末在羅省中華學校上學。以前也常常去圖書館；當時是在Castelar裡。NGA
[A memory I have is] playing in Alpine when I was a student. Castelar didn’t have a playground until later in the school year. Students were sent across the street to Alpine for recess and lunch.我的記憶是學生時期在 Alpine Park 玩耍。我讀 Castelar 時，還沒有操場。小息時同學們都要到 Alpine Park 去玩。PRINCIPAL FUNG
Since 2013, my family and I have been organizing Save Music in Chinatown shows at Human Resources and now the Grand Star… Of course, my wife and I love the kids, teachers, and staff at Castelar. That’s why we volunteer there so much. But we’ve increasingly found ourselves taking advantage of services at Alpine, along with other families It’s pretty cool how so many generations overlap and benefit from parks and rec programs. 我家人和我在人事部和 Grand Star 舉辦拯救音樂活動已經五年了。我和

[I remember] Alpine Park had low-cost classes for us, golf programs at Griffith Park, and basketball. During summers, there were free lunch programs at Cas-telar. I moved away for college, and now that I’m running my own NGO it’s important for me to move back. I also like the LA State Historic Park—it’s nice to see skyline of Downtown LA and get some fresh air. 我記得 Alpine Park 的低價課程、格里菲斯公園的高爾夫活動以及籃球。暑假時 Castelar 有免費午餐。上了大學就搬走了。現在我正在經管一個非牟利機構，所以搬回來對我很重要。洛杉磯州立歷史公園讓我享受新鮮空氣與LA市中心的景觀 。KIM
I have been coming to Alpine Park since 1997 with the Traditional Chinese Martial Art Federation, but have been coming to Chinatown since the 1970s. We like to meet up to practice the arts with friends. A documentary called “The Black Experience of Martial Arts” was filmed here in 2012, and we had our first event here in 2015 called “The Gathering of Masters.” We all enjoy each other’s company and often eat at The Full House on Hill. My favorite dish is the chicken pan fried noodles. They have the best chefs in town.
我從七十年代就開始來華埠了，從1997年開始與武術協會來 Alpine Park。我們喜歡一起與朋友在娛樂中心習武。 2012 年紀錄片《The Black Experience of Martial Arts》曾在這裡拍攝，而 2015 年我們迎來了第一個名為武師大會的活動。我們經常在 Hill 街的漁邨用餐，雞肉炒麵是希爾我的最愛。他們有全城頂級的廚師。DONALD

My other favorite place is the library. I’m a reader and children’s book writer, so of course I frequent libraries. I loved learning about Wanda’s long library career in an issue of WAPOW. Recently, she laughed at me because I dropped a loaned book in the bath while I was reading it and needed to re-place it. I’ve been able to donate books I get for free to Rita, the children’s librarian. She even made a holiday tree ornament with my book cover on it! I love that I can walk to the library from my apartment, loaded up with books to return on the way and books to read on the way back. I pass kids from Castelar after school, the endless line at Howlin Rays, my favorite store East/West, the

My earliest memory of Chinatown is Jan. 4, 1949 when Dr. Julius Sue slapped me on my butt when I popped out of my mother at the French Hospital. Chinatown is home. 我對華埠最早的記憶是1949年1月4日，法國醫院的 Dr. Julius Sue 在我出生時拍了我屁股。華埠是我的家。EUGENE
My connection to Chinatown started at birth. I was born on April 8, 1975 at French Hospital. The hospital that I was born is now closed; a huge develop-ment is set to take over the commu-nity. These things make me sad. The character of the community is changing but for who? I fear displacement for the community similar to what my family encountered in 1959 with the destruc-tion of their then-community of Palo Verde, La Loma, and Bishop in Chavez Ravine—not far from Chinatown.我在法國醫院出生。我為那個醫院的關閉以及過度開發而傷心。這個地方的靈魂為誰而變？我怕我家人失去Palo Verde, La Loma, 和 Bishop 在 Chavez Ravine 社區的悲劇會重演。MELISSA 我喜歡去謝氏宗堂聊天。在唐人街夜晚的時候很少人會出來走路，治安不
安全。 很多的大型商場都關門了，例如 永合豐。 變得很冷清， 西人變得多了，很多的壞人開始離開了。有點不如意的是在 Chinatown 停車不是很方便還有就是 Apartment 太貴了，他希望便宜一些。
I enjoy going to the Tse Clansman Asso-ciation. At night very few people go out because it doesn’t feel safe. Many large stores like Wing Hop Fung have closed and it started to get quiet. There are more Westerners now and others have started to leave. An annoyance is that Chinatown’s parking is inconvenient and the apartments are too expensive.MR. XIE

It’s fun to buy food and fruit on the streets! I remember going to Chinatown every weekend with my mom when I was growing up. It’s changed a lot since then. Many of the old shopping centers where we used to haggle for merchandise are out of business. I remember that walk-ing around Chinatown buying karaoke laser disks with my parents was a big pastime... the shopping centers used to be full of independent vendors selling everything you can think of. 在街上買食物和水果好玩極了！我記得小時候每週末來華埠，現在許多我們討價還價過的舊商城不在了，顯得冷清。我們曾經多喜歡買卡拉 OK 光碟啊，那是華埠獨特的商品，也曾是華人獨特的消遣模式。BETSY
I learned how to tie my shoes as a girl in Chinatown. I also remember loud Chinese music playing from different vendors who were selling cassette tapes and later CDs, as well as the cacophony
of sounds from electronic toys. I naturally gravitated toward the flipping toy dogs that were yammering for attention; being fascinated by the beautiful qi paos. I fantasized about my wedding day and when I’d get to wear one. My mother felt comfortable in Chinatown, which made me feel comfortable there as well.我小時候最清晰的記憶就是在街上停下來系鞋帶。我記得不同商家會用很大音量放磁帶和光盤上的音樂，還混雜著電子玩具的噪音。翻滾的玩具狗總是令我神往。我想像過自己結婚時穿旗袍的情景。KRISTINA
The Empress Pavilion—now closed—was a landmark of my childhood. My family would visit once a weekend and partake in the craziness that is dim sum dining in a palatial restaurant housed on the top floor of an outdoor mall. At the time, I wasn’t much impressed by the austerity of the businesses, but now looking back I can appreciate the vibrancy that was tucked away in the top floor. There are secret communities in all parts of LA that are invisible from the street side but incredible once you find it in the interior guts of the building.以前，一到週末我家會去漢宮大酒樓吃點心。回頭看看，我很欣賞酒樓商場裡隱藏的活力。在洛杉磯有很多生氣勃勃的小街坊。JIA
I like buying cheap toilet paper at the swap meet on College and Spring. It makes me wonder why do stores charge so much for toilet paper? My favorite part of Chinatown are the fruit and vegetable vendors on Broadway. There’s so much variety and helps me save money. My parents live in a midwest suburb so they’re not a fan of busy Los Angeles. My dad is always a bit cranky when he comes to visit. But the last time they visited I took them to a new Chinese restaurant just a couple blocks from where I live, Full Moon House. The food was so yummy and cheap, it won my dad’s heart and belly. He finally found something in LA he enjoyed. We ate there a second time before they left.我喜歡在 College 和 Spring 街口的小店有最便宜的廁紙。百老匯街上的蔬果攤五花八門，性價比高。我來中西部的父親不喜歡洛杉磯，但上次他來時我們去了滿月樓餐館，裡面的廉價美食討得了他的歡心。CINDY

I like to walk around the plazas. The lanterns are beautiful and the warm sun make it very pleasant to spend my break. My dog loves the people, plants and other dogs as well. Chinatown is one of the few neighborhoods where you will see the same people on a daily basis, and it creates a sense of community for me. I remember eating at all the different restaurants in Chinatown, going to the market with my grandma for groceries, waiting in line at the bank, and seeing the same people who live and work here. This has stuck with me and is probably why I stick around, because it instills a sense of community that I think is rare in a big city. I’m afraid that our little neighborhood will turn into an Old Town Pasadena, which has mostly chain stores.舊華埠的廣場有美麗的燈籠和明媚的陽光，不僅我能每天見到我的朋友、鄰居們，我的狗也能見到各種各樣的動物和人物。這種日常交際讓我感受到華埠集體的可貴，不論是在餐館、超市還是銀行。JUDY

A memory that’s stuck with me is seeing Michael Jackson in Chinatown, in early 1984, near the Yee Sing Chong mar-ket on Hill Street. That was definitely exciting, of course, because he was such a superstar back then. I also took a picture with Jet Li at the Ocean Seafood Restaurant parking lot. “Lethal Weapon 4” was filmed around there. I also met
Hong Kong director/fight choreographer Cory Yuen there, on the same day. That was exciting of course, since I am a fan of Hong Kong movies. 1984 年我在裕成昌市場附近見到了邁克爾杰克遜，當時的大明星。我還在 Ocean 海鮮停車場和 Jet Li 照過相—致命武器 4 就是在那附近拍的。那天我還見到了香港導演和武術指導 Cory Yuen。WARREN

One of my favorite things about being a business owner in Chinatown is the opportunity to help and meet so many different people from around the world visiting Los Angeles. It’s incredibly exciting introducing people to traditional Chinese medicine through our herbal teas, dietary supplements, and beauty products.

It’s wonderful going to work in Chinatown everyday watching custom-ers, tourists, and other members of the community walk through our streets. Sad-

I like the new restaurants and offices. I am not a fan of the new residential
buildings that are being constructed. It’s not an opposition to new residences be-cause I support market rate housing I just feel that the urban design and architec-tural qualities of the new developments has been less than inspiring. Chinatown needs new development and based on its proximity to Downtown proper, Union Station and the communities to the north it should grow but it needs more atten-tion and thought regarding what those developments look like.我喜歡新的辦公樓與餐館，但不喜歡新住宅—雖然我支持市場價的房屋，它們的設計與建築風格欠佳。華埠的開發需要更多投入，並建立在它附近的Downtown Proper，Union Station 和北邊的社區之上。TOM M.
I love the galleries and shops along Chung King Road, the open atrium at Mandarin Plaza, every eatery at Far East Plaza, and walking LA State Historic Park. I like that within one neighborhood, I can dine, engage, people-watch, or disconnect from the world and meditate. The build-out of Endorffeine—watching a space transform from an empty room into an intimate coffee bar of my dreams was surreal. 我喜歡 Chung King 路上的商店和畫廊、Mandarin Plaza 的天台、遠東

I was thankful to work here, otherwise I wouldn’t have known about Chinatown. I like the coffee shop nearby, Burgerlords, and Wonder Bakery for their black milk boba, taro bread, and coconut bread. I like supporting independent businesses as opposed to chains. I like the architecture here. There’s always something happen-ing. I want more people to come here and experience Chinatown, know about it, participate, support, be respectful to the community... It’s a complex thing, the rela-tionship between artists and gentrification. Artists don’t make money, but there is sys-tematized racism. I don’t have the answer, but a place to start is research. 我最近開始在 Friend Mart 工作才來到華埠。我喜歡附近的咖啡館、Burger-lords、幸福餅家的黑牛奶波霸、塔羅麵包和椰子麵包，比起連鎖店我更喜歡個體戶。這裡建築風格好，總有新鮮事。作為設計師，我在春節慶祝活動時研究了紅包的顏色和品牌，看到了人們對文化的尊崇。我希望更多人了解、參與、支持、尊重華埠的活動。我還想研究解決藝術家們和高檔化之間複雜的聯繫。藝術家們不賺錢，種族歧視尚存。TATIANA
Density and population is increasing, so they’re building more and more apart-ments, but facilities cannot support it. Grocery markets, like Lee’s Market on Hill and Alpine and 99 Ranch, have closed and never reopened. There is no parking, and landlords keep raising rent, so people and markets move out. The city does whatever—update health code and requirements, and it is difficult for small old places to adapt.人口密度的增加帶動了公寓建設，但設施不到位，比如Lee‘s Market 和99大華都沒再開起來。沒地方停車，租金高漲，造成人口和市場的流失。城市不顧老店的感受肆意更新衛生規章，餐館都搬到蒙特利公園去了。ANONYMOUS SENIOR CITIZEN

For me Chinatown is not only a physical place but a state of mind. Perhaps because the Chinatown of my youth now only exists in memories. The neighborhood architecture has changed over time but these structures still offer distinct impressions because of decades-old events of that lived inside them. Today, it is sounds and smells for me that make Chinatown a real place, a thriving residential and business community.對於我來說，華埠不僅是物質存在，也是精神存在。我童年的華埠只活在記憶裡了，建築變了樣，但它們的造型還挽留著數十年的世事沉浮。今天它是一個生意盎然的住宅和商業區。RICK
Another memory is when St. Anthony was building a new parish haul the Kolo Group (traditional Croatian dance) had nowhere to practice so for a while they practiced at the church hall at St. Peter’s—I remember feeling a bit out of place not being at St. Anthony but also the significance of these two old church-es both being in Chinatown and what that heritage means to our respective cultures. Also, not a personal memory, but one I find important is a program from our church event back in the 1950’s with advertisements from many local restaurants and business that were Croatian business such as the Yugoslav Cafe, Alpine Tavern, etc. Those places were replaced with business by the new Chinatown residents that were coming in at that time. 我記得 St. Anthony 建新教區的時候 Kolo 克羅地亞舞團被迫轉移到 St. Peter‘s，讓我深刻體會到了這些老教
堂的無價遺產與文化深度。五十年代克羅地亞的店，包括 Yugoslav Cafe 和 Alpine Tavern 都被新居民取代了。TOM M.
I had never been to Chinatown prior to January 2018. Once I interned at Chinese Historical Society of Southern California], I got to know the community through monthly meetings and by learn-ing the history of Old and New China-town [from]the archives and artifacts... Chinatown has a very rich culture and I was very lucky to have even a glimpse into the networks of the community... Apart from academics and research, special moments I experienced were lunches with my supervisors. I would sit down and eat local delicacies from restaurants in Chinatown. Whether it was dim sum or sandwiches, we got to sit and have casual lunch talking about sports, leisurely activities, and local happenings. To me, even the most basic/simple encounters leave great impressions. Getting to know China-town was one of the greatest opportu-nities I’ve ever had. I have grown up in Southern Orange County all my life and it has always felt like its own bubble to me. So traveling and experiencing life outside of that bubble is very liberating.南加州華人歷史學會是我第一次實習的地點，在那我認識了這個社區的人物和歷史，並研究檔案與文物中的深意。午飯時我們會一邊吃當地的點心或三明治，一邊就體育、文娛、新鮮事侃侃而談。尤其因為我在南橙縣長大，我特別珍惜在外接觸新生活的機會。JEANNETTE
I love visiting many of the small local businesses that have been around for
many years. As Miss Chinatown LA, I participated in various events like the Firecracker 10K, and numerous Chinese New Years celebrations. I think China-town has so much to offer as a place of cultural heritage and one of constant reinvention of its identity. Chinatown has definitely seen a mingling of historic traditions with a new generation of creators. I love the fact that there is a fusion between old and new. However, I think all members of the Chinatown community would benefit from greater collaboration amongst individuals and businesses. I think Chinese people are strong and independent but sometimes we need to remember that community is equally as important. I think Chinatown and its changing environment provides the perfect opportunity to see new collaboration amongst neighbors and businesses.我年復一年地熱愛這裡的地方個體戶。洛城華埠有這麼豐厚的歷史確實不得了。我有幸參加了包括爆竹十里和春節聯歡的許多活動。華埠不但能夠凝聚文化，還能不斷更新它的身份，歷久彌新。但我也希望個人和商家利用新的機會加強合作，把自主精神也用來改善集體。CATHERINE

It is my first year being involved in LA Chi-natown, as I grew up in St. Louis, MO. As part of the 2018 Miss LA Chinatown Court, I had to opportunity to attend loads of Chinese New Year celebrations throughout the month. I think I saw more lion dances in one month than I had in my entire life. It was amazing to grow so much closer to my heritage! The Golden Dragon Parade was probably my favorite because of the sheer amazing amount of people from different cultures that joined together for the event! I loved going to the Chinese American Museum for the Lantern Festival this year. It was interesting to walk through the exhibits and learn more about Chinese American history, because I grew up mixed (Chinese, Hungarian, and Moroccan) and never have had a chance to focus more deeply on just one part of my ethnic identity. 我在密蘇里州長大，但今年的華埠小姐活動讓我得以參加很多春節慶祝活動。我那個月見的獅子比我活這麼久見到的都多。我是中國、匈牙利、摩洛哥人混血，和我的歷史相聯繫棒極了。大規模、多文化的金龍遊行以及華裔博物館的燈節讓我難忘。JACLYN
The best time I have had in Chinatown is during the 1980s when we were able to celebrate Chinese New Years with tons of firecracker. The whole Broadway street would be two inches in height full of red paper (blown firecrackers). Everyone will be lighting and popping firecrackers all around. The Central Plaza stage is another great attraction. There would be Chinese Lion Dancing, Fan Dancing, Martial Arts, Ballet, etc. I vividly remember this because I enjoy the Chinese New Year festivities a lot. 八十年代我們能用成堆的爆竹慶祝春節，整條百老匯街都被兩指深的紅紙淹沒了。Central Plaza 的舞台也會有吸引人的舞獅、扇舞、武術、芭蕾等等，賞心悅目。WAYLAND
我質疑大項目拆除老建築、逐出個體戶的行為。這導致了房產漲價，傷害了低收入、外語為主的移民家庭。但我也愛Firecracker Run和春節遊行，並感激那些為華埠文化發聲的人和機構 — 包括《華報》！MARTIN
My dad, the late Bill Hong, used to light up a long string of firecrackers at the end of the L.A. Golden Dragon Parade. That was always an exciting ending to the Golden Dragon Parade.我父親 Bill Hong 曾經在金龍遊行末尾放一長串爆竹作為精彩的結局。WARREN
My strongest memories are the Chinese Drum and Bugle Corp; the dragon with Christmas lights, firecracker and lion dances in the Chinese New Year Parade; the carnivals from back in the day. What was so important was that the Chinese American community support-ed these cultural events. It is sad that not many younger Chinese Americans support the cultural events now. When the general public looks through the Chinatown window, it appears Chinese Americans are not very involved or con-nected to the culture. We need to honor the leaders of the past and promote our cultural heritage.
過去的狂歡節—春節遊行的 Chinese Drum and Bugle Corp、彩燈點綴的龍、爆竹和舞獅讓我難忘。從前的華人支持這些文化活動，但現在的年輕人不在乎了，這影響了公眾形象。我們需要向過去的領導者們致敬，傳播文化根源。HENRY
The Lunar New Year Celebration sur-prised me, because I didn’t know about it, and there was a lot of traffic. I’m a graphic designer, so I noticed all the red envelopes, the colors used, how they were used, the branding, and seeing people celebrate their culture. A couple of weekends ago, I went from March For Our Lives to Chinatown. In a walk, you can experience both things. People who were selling food, clothes, who couldn’t go to the march. 作為設計師，我在春節慶祝活動時研究了紅包的顏色和品牌，看到了人們對文化的尊崇。這裡的畫廊比我想像的好，能見到名人。 March For Our Lives 那天我看到了商家與抗議者之間鮮明的對比。TATIANA
Some of my favorite memories have been from the first year of opening Scoops. Being at the shop from open to close every day was like a full China-
town immersion experience. I met so many residents from the neighborhood who would become regulars and friends. Also, being part of events like the Moon Festival, the Chinese New Year celebration, CicLA-via, the Firecracker runs, and the China-town Summer Nights series contributed to that feeling and were all highlights from that first year. I definitely appreciate Chi-natown’s rich culture of art and music. I’ve spent countless nights at Human Resourc-es, which often has stellar performances and exhibitions. At Grand Star Jazz Club, the Save Music in Chinatown benefit shows for Castelar that happen every few months are indicative of how much heart and fun the community has.我對我的冰淇淋店 Scoops 開張后的第一年依然記憶猶。每天在裡面就像經歷了整個華埠。我能見到客戶並結識在附近住的朋友。我有幸參與中秋和新年慶祝、CicLAvia、Firecracker Run 和華埠夏夜。我擔心漲價帶來的人口搬遷會把華埠帶往洛杉磯其他社區的方向，但此起彼伏的對話給我希望。我很欣賞華埠的藝術與音樂。人事部經常有極好的演出與展覽。在 Grand Star 爵士樂俱樂部，「拯救華埠音樂」的慈善晚會展現了這個群體的情趣。CHRIS

I am proud of Chinatown. The children of migrants need to look around, acknowl-edge our culture, our history, and our soul. My dream is for us to build a multi culture that includes the poor, the work-ing class, the elderly, the single parent, the youth, and all in the oppressed sec-tion to incorporate a community that has a direction. I would like to see “People over Profit.”我為華埠驕傲。移民的子女需要看到並承認自己的文化，歷史與靈魂。我夢想建立一個包低收入者、工人、老人、單親父母及少年兒童的社區，並賦予這些被壓迫的人一種使命感。人大於利益。MO
I’s like to see more community organizing from a grassroot level and continue to see young people volunteering to acti-vate spaces. My hopes for Chinatown is not only to survive, but to thrive. Afford-able housing for people, so people won’t have to move out… I want more visibility, instead of becoming a tourist place. I like to see more upgrades in Alpine Park and want to see all those who grew up here, be able to afford living here.我想看到青少年繼續做志願服務。華埠應該繁榮昌盛 - 價格合理的房產，草
根級別的組織都應該更顯眼，華埠不只是一個旅遊點. Alpine Park 也該翻修了。SOPHANAROT
There’s a large part of me that hopes Chinatown stays mostly the same—work-ing class, immigrant, with a strong sense of community. My primary concern is gentrification and displacement, it’s al-most to the point that we can’t take care of each other because we’re all getting priced out. 我希望可以保留華埠睦鄰的感覺；繼續歡迎工人阶级和移民。我主要擔心的是高檔化令到鄰居要搬走，幾乎到了我們無法相互照顧。JASMINE
I hope that the next generation of Chi-natown is what it has always been—a new group coming in there to realize there hopes of the American dream. I hope that the community that influences things today can keep in mind that it has always been an immigrant community internationally and now Los Angeles is a community largely of migrants from across the United States. LA is always changing and Chinatown is especially.下一代的華埠應該繼承幫助新人實現美國夢的傳統。決策者應該記住這是一個移民的國際化華埠、一個移民的洛杉磯， 而華埠帶動洛杉磯的變化。TOM M.
I hope that elders and long-term resi-dents will be able to stay in their close net community they have created for themselves.我希望老人們和長期居民能夠時時與其社區相隨。新一代可以受益於歷史文化傳統的教育性活動。本地人應該能夠購買房產。MELISSA
The potential change that would worry me would be a situation similar to other neighborhoods in LA in which housing
prices rise and community displacement occurs. I feel like there is a drive in Chi-natown to have conversations about this and what can be done to prevent that, which makes me hopeful.我擔心漲價帶來的人口搬遷會把華埠帶往洛杉磯其他社區的方向，但此起彼伏的對話給我希望。CHRIS
The senior citizens need to be here Elderly access and public services need to stay, because Chinatown is centrally located and accessible. Some changes I’d like to see are facilities for young peo-ple and senior citizens to hang around. 華埠是中心化與便利化的，設施需要方便老人留下來。我希望看到更多給年輕人和老人去的地方。ANONYMOUS SENIOR CITIZEN
I have seen new energy and new life in Chinatown, introducing younger people to a place of historical significance... I want to see myself living here in the long term. I would like to see it as a place that supports healthy ways of life—like the park, access to good and fresh food, and a quality and affordable lifestyle. I want to see a lot of younger people come back and be active. 我喜歡年輕人在這歷史之城裡的新能量與新生活。我想在這裡長期生活，也希望年輕人擁有公園，新鮮的食物和宜人的起居。我想讓他們作為活躍的公民回到這裡。KIM
I’d like to see affordable housing, and a walking/biking path that connects the entirety of Chinatown. I hope that the senior care facilities will continue to op-erate here; they provide a great service. 我想看到價格合理的住房和一個連接整個社區的行人自行車道。我希望華埠的好幾間老人中心會繼續保留—他們服務很好。JACK

I would like to see more development designed to complete the walking path at the Cornfields, which was part of the original plan. I would like to see that se-niors have more access to the park with a shuttle bus to for them. I would like to see more buildings for seniors, more funding for programs at Alpine Park. I want to see more programs for seniors and families at the Cornfields. I want to see it grow for the community that we fought for.MARY ANNE
My platform for the Miss LA Chinatown Pageant was to raise awareness and reduce the stigma of mental illness in the Chinese community. I would love to see some events or resources in China-town that promote mental health for the upcoming generation.比如華埠小姐選美就是用來提高對精神疾病的認識的。我想看到精神健康的普及。JACLYN
I would like to see the empty lot next to Hop Li diagonally across from Alpine become a fitness zone with outdoor exercise equipment that is easy to use and accessible. I would like to see the monster buildings become open air pop ups for culture and food and ping pong and community organizations.合利餐館附近的空地可以成為一個設施齊全的運動場。我希望大型公寓成為露天場地，供人們買小物件或打乒乓球。CONNIE
My hopes for Chinatown is in the growth and development for our aging communi-ty. The East Wind Lion Troupe is a sensa-tional example of what/how our heritage is being actively preserved and taught. It is one of the most awe inspiring organi-zations out there. Also the development of temples and associations define a further active measure of preservation.我覺得華埠的新老結合的風格。我希望它能夠跟上時代腳步，比如華埠小姐選美就是用來提高對精神疾病的認識的。我想看到精神健康的普及。CARTER
I see great potential for public officials to consult local Chinatown-based non-prof-its who have been doing effective
outreach and engagement for years. Decision-makers must meaningfully engage with community members about the assets and needs of Chinatown. Long-time community members are the experts, and know the neighborhood intimately in ways decision-makers don’t. We need to listen to the people. 我相信官員們可以向華埠非政府組織借鑒社區參與的策略。決策者必須與社區成員一起討論華埠的資本與需求。社區的長老是這方面的專家，比我們更有親切感。TIM
There are definitely more restaurants and art galleries in the last two years. I like having more dining options, but I would actually like to see more Asian dining options rather than Western. There are several new housing developments going up all around Chinatown... I wish Chi-natown would be a creative context for Asian American artists and chefs. I hope that the new restaurants and galleries we see could reflect the creativity of a new Asian American generation of entrepre-neurs.餐館和畫廊增多了，但我想看到更多亞洲風格的選擇。我擔心新的房產開發帶來令人不安的變化。我希望華埠是一個反映藝術家和廚師創意的環境，尤其是新一代的亞裔創業人。CINDY
More local facilities for people who live here, access to markets, a movie theater, bowling... entertainment for local people. There are no locals walking around here after 6 pm, like in Little Tokyo.我希望看到市場，影院，保齡球等等。和小東京一樣這裡晚6點後就沒人上街了。MO
I’d like to see families and businesses stick around to carry on the tradition and culture of Chinatown—not just food, gift shops, societies, and social services but also the arts—to retain agency in the neighborhood and serve and affect future generations. 我想看到家傳的店鋪留下來繼承傳統，而不僅僅是餐館、禮品店、俱樂部和社會服務。還有藝術，它可以保留這個社區的自主性並恩惠下一代。MARTIN
There’s not one single place that captures Chinatown for me but it is certainly the mix of formal and informal (especially in-formal) qualities about the neighborhood that makes it such an important place in Los Angeles. I hope that these informal qualities are protected and given a place to exist alongside the more recent and shiny urban development, otherwise this neighborhood will become super generic.華埠的獨特性在於它正式和非正式的結合。為了不讓它成為另一個平凡的地帶，我希望亮眼的城市建設能夠給那些非正式的空間留下餘地。JIA
My hopes for Chinatown are for many more people to come visit our beautiful area. Our business is celebrating 25 years, and I hope to stay here another 25. It’s fantastic going to Chinatown everyday and seeing new people walk the streets and into our store. With my son coming out to Chinatown more frequently, I hope he has the opportunity to experience the beauty of the city even more. I hope our beautiful neighborhood remains a focal point of history and beauty for many generations to come.我希望更多人來華埠玩。在我的商店開業25年之際，我希望我在這繼續待25年。我愛看來來往往的行人，我希望兒子能夠感受這座城的美感。我希望我們燦爛的社區能成為代代相傳的歷史美學瑰寶。LOK
I have not been around long enough to see the major changes, but I view the current Chinatown as a great blend of traditional/modern ideals and style. I hope that the rich history of China-town and its people remains for future generations to cherish as much as I do right now. At the same time, I hope that Chinatown progresses with the times in pertinent areas. 我覺得華埠的新老結合的風格。我希望它能夠跟上時代腳步，比如華埠小姐選美就是用來提高對精神疾病的認識的。我想看到精神健康的普及。JACLYN
I’ve come to believe that a city is a living and breathing organism, adapting itself
to both subtle and seismic transforma-tions that often seem cruel, unfeeling and merciless. I have great admiration for preservationists but nostalgia even with its charms has its limits; I think it could be a prison for progress and prosperity. Communities have to learn to adapt but newcomers have to understand the ramifications of their arrival in unsettling the balance of a fragile dynamic.我覺得華埠的新老結合的風格。我希望它能夠跟上時代腳步，比如華埠小姐選美就是用來提高對精神疾病的認識的。我想看到精神健康的普及。RICK
I hope to see Chinatown grow as a place where people of different gener-ations and of different demographics can come together to celebrate diversity and history. I hope, especially among people of my generation, that we can foster greater curiosity for the role that Chinese people have played in helping to build a great cultural community not only in Chinatown but also Los Angeles as a whole.我希望華埠成長成一個不同時代和人種匯集慶祝多樣性和歷史的地方。我希望我這一代的人們更加感興趣華人在建造華埠乃至洛杉磯中的角色。CATHERINE
I want Chinatown’s heritage and rich cul-ture to thrive even amidst changing times. I do understand that change is not only inevitable but necessary. I just hope it happens in a healthy way. I hope future Chinatown has many of the buildings it still has, I hope there is little demolition. 變化是必然和必須的，我希望它同時是健康的。我希望未來它的建築不被過度拆除。JEANNETTE

是変了不少，以前並沒有高樓大廈在華埠的但現在已建了不少大型樓房，以前都是些平房商品店，而現在那些商品店已沒有了很多，現在又多了個新的公園，環境很好，但以前的境像就好像沒了，現在華埠雖然是華埠但年輕人世界而且都是用英語溝通多，以前就不一樣都是廣東話或台山話或越語溝通的，怎樣也好希望將來的華埠一樣可以世世代代的傳下去，永遠全在。
The environment is better but stranger, with more youngsters speaking English instead of Toisanese and Vietnamese. One way or another, I hope the future Chinatown can pass down through the generations.LAURA

WHAT ABOUT THE KIDS?
Oral histories are an awesome way to dig into the past. I love it when overlapping generations share stories and memories that connect, deepen, or even conflict with one another. The prism of truths that make up the past is made just a little bit clearer.
But what about the kids? Not shaded by misplaced nostalgia or afraid of what it is to come, they might pro-vide the most honest views of all. My fourth-grade daughter and I surveyed a handful of Castelar and Alpine kids regarding what they like most about Chinatown and touched on their hopes for the neighborhood.
Predictably, Castelar Elementary and Alpine Recreation Center are cited often, as are Jade Wok, Pho 87, and Golden Dragon. But Disneyland and Target? The former isn’t far from the origins of New Chinatown and the latter may become reality sooner than later. You can’t hide the truth from children.

The daily physical and psychological stresses that come with city life can easily tip our health from good to imbalanced. We are often not conscious of our developing conditions until we are faced with a health-related surprise. I would know—four years ago at age 29, I was diagnosed with prediabetes.
At the time, I was five years into my career as a pastry chef, employed by a very popular and busy restaurant. As I worked hard to move up professionally, my sense of equilibrium was being disrupted. I skipped meals to work more and ate foods with very little nutritional value—”I’m starving and my coworker brought donuts!” Allowing my blood sugar to fluctuate wildly did not help, especially since as an Asian, I am genetically more inclined to develop Type 2 diabetes. Not to mention Type 2 runs in my mom’s side of the family.
My high blood sugar warning pushed me to question what a balanced lifestyle should look like. I grew curious about herbal remedies and as I sought out information on Chinese medicine for routine care, I was reminded of the principles of yin yang. As a kid growing up in So Cal in the 90s, the yin yang symbol was ubiquitous. My best friend got us a matching yin yang necklace set, and I have a vague memory of my older brother Josh in a screen-printed yin yang surfer tee. I bet you’ve seen plenty of yin yangs printed on objects, or tattooed on people. But what’s its meaning?
Yin yang translates directly as shade and light. It is the phi-losophy of continuous balance between opposites. The circle symbolizes a universe wherein yin and yang coexist harmo-niously. In Eastern medicine, our bodies are mini universes in which dual forces of nature manifest both in our physical being and mental state. Disturbed harmony from lack of sleep, poor communication, inadequate nourishment through diet, or decreased physical activity, can all lead to ailments. Embracing yin yang for health is to embrace preventative care, mindfulness and healing. I invite you to join me! Let’s enter the consciousness of the continuous rhythmic interplay of yin yang.

FINDING BALANCE
尋找平衡之道
城市生活中的體格和心裡壓力都會造成健康失調。很多時候我們要病倒才認識問題的嚴重性。四年前我二十九歲的時候，就發現自己患上了前期糖尿病。
當時我在點心行業工作了已有五年，正在一家很受歡迎的餐廳工作。因為工作繁忙，我沒有定時用餐，而且吃許多沒有營養的食物—總抵不住同事帶來的甜甜圈的誘惑。我不但有家傳的糖尿病病史，還讓自己的血糖變得不穩定。
我的高血糖警告導致我質疑什麼是平衡的生活方式。我開始查詢中醫藥理，並從中發現了陰陽學說。
在90年代的南加州長大，我的生活處處都有陰陽的象徵。我跟好朋友買過同款的陰陽項鍊。我還記得弟弟曾擁有一件陰陽的襯衫。大家一定看過許多的陰陽標誌印在其他的物品上，還有用作人體紋身--可是它是什麼意思呢？
陰陽學是說對立體能達到持續平衡的概念。圓形象徵著一個陰陽對立統一的宇宙。在東方醫學裡，我們的身體像如一個小宇宙。相反相成的對立統一概念表現在我們的身體和精神上。缺少睡眠，不良溝通，缺乏營養，或減少活動都會導致各種病痛。陰陽學應用於健康上就是注重預防治療和復原方式。我邀請大家加入我尋找平衡的旅程。

1. Set a kettle to boil water. Meanwhile select flowers and berries and set in tea-pot or large mug with a lid handy. Use a strainer in the tea cup if you like.
2. When water reaches a boil, allow to settle a few seconds before pouring over flowers and berries. Cover and steep for at least 5 minutes before en-joying. Strain and stir in honey if using.
Also delicious cool or chilled. Reserve flowers and berries for resteeping.
My first memory of being served chry-santhemum tea was as a kid at a dim sum restaurant. It had such a unique taste and was pleasantly refreshing. In the heat of summer, I find myself longing for that soothing tea. At Tin Bo Ginseng and Herb, I was met by Wu Yun, who assisted me and also shared that the herb naturally supports liver function.
