Overseas Chinese community members gathered to pay tribute to model mothers over 90 years old, creating a warm and touching scene that demonstrated the fine tradition of respecting the elderly and upholding virtues within the overseas Chinese community.
Director Chu Yi-ching of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Sao Paulo and Director You Zheng-cai of the Culture and Education Center both stated in their speeches that the Federation of Overseas Chinese Associations actively participates in overseas Chinese community activities, with dragon and lion dances and electronic Third Prince performances showcasing cultural vitality. Chu Yi-ching emphasized that a mother's love and dedication are the most precious and irreplaceable forces in life, and that the initiative to honor mothers over 90 years old is particularly worthy of promotion.

She also specially presented red envelopes to the model mothers present, wishing them "to eat a hundred and twenty," symbolizing health and longevity.
