Chen Yumei, director of the Women's Department of the Kuomintang and Taipei City Councilor, said that even simple actions can make mothers who always give selflessly feel extremely warm and moved. Therefore, since the 100th year of the Republic of China, the Women's Department of the Kuomintang has held an event every year in which women volunteers send carnations and greeting cards named after Chairman Ma Ying-jeou to their mothers in crowded places such as markets or MRT stations. This year, in addition to continuing the content of the past activities, it also combines local specialty teas with its characteristics and names to give more meaning and symbolism to the tea given to mothers, telling the children's deepest gratitude to their mothers.
