Michael has devoted too much to charity in his life, which makes those who often regard the word "charity" as propaganda far behind. I don't know how many children in the world have benefited from him, how many patients have regained their hope and courage to overcome the disease because of him, how many families have come out of trouble because of him, and how many people have their dreams come true because of him!
And Michael continues, and we are glad that the world can enjoy his grace. Michael is like a flag fluttering in the wind, like a towering lighthouse, like a shining superstar. He brought us light and hope, and more generously pointed out the direction for all the people in the world who have love in their hearts. ......
