This unconventional marketing initiative was also&#13;<br \/>\nintended to bring the beauty of Taiwan&#8217;s Hakka culture to the broader&#13;<br \/>\ninternational community. For the Japanese illustrator, it proved an uncommon&#13;<br \/>\nexperience in which he developed a profound appreciation of Taiwan&#8217;s Hakka&#13;<br \/>\nculture, people, and sensibilities. Over the course of his stay, he came up with&#13;<br \/>\nsome 280 sketch illustrations\u2014depictions of the encounters, scenery, and food in&#13;<br \/>\nthose Hakka communities that left him a lasting impression. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img src=\"https:\/\/release.media-outreach.com\/release.php\/Images\/Thumb\/500x0\/131826\/Photo-one.jpg#image-131826\" width=\"500\"\/><\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: normal\">A Hakka ancestral hall<\/span><\/h5>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>The HAC is now in the process of putting&#13;<br \/>\ntogether the Japanese illustrator&#8217;s wonderfully conceived works that exhibit a&#13;<br \/>\nmoving human touch.
