English version
It begins with a good friend who invited me to a camp, knowing I'll never say NO to having fun and knowing more friends. I hesitated at the beginning learning I would need to face HUNGER, I thought it would be in means of mental and physical torture.  However, throughout the 30 hours I was educated through sharing and games on the objectives and motives of 30-Hour Famine.

Then only I know how neglected I was on basic necessities and creating wastage of resources GOD had given us, while others  from different side of the globe still struggling over basic survival needs. Then only I know every 30-Hour Famine I spent yearly is joint effort meant to give hope to others who are really suffering. From that year onwards, I never missed in participating in 30-Hour Famine DIY-Camp as a reminder to myself to be thankful and appreciate the world resources while lending a helping hand to friends from other side of the globe whenever we could. Thanks to my friend I’m here, I’m thankful to your friends for you are here too; together we can make a difference!!
Welcome to 30-Hour Famine DIY-Camp J

Mandarin version
说起我与饥饿30的因缘,是从一个好朋友的邀请开始。她看中了我从不在玩乐与交朋友这件事上拒绝,就把我拉进了。一开始,在得知了需要饥饿的时候,我是非常抗拒的。然而,真正经历了这30小时当中的分享与游戏,我获知了关于饥饿30的目的和意义。我这才明白在地球的另一面有多少人在面对连基本生活要求都无法得到的困难。曾经我多么忽视那些基本生活必需品,曾经的我多么浪费资源!现在我终于明白,每30小时饥荒中,我每年的努力是为了给希望让别人脱离真正的痛苦。从那一年起,我从来没有错过参加饥饿30营,借以提醒自己要感恩我所拥有的一切,同时伸出援手邦族来自世界各地的朋友。感谢我的朋友,我在这里,我很高兴你曾经在这里,我们一起能有所作为!

欢迎参与饥饿30营!
