村子自己說的

What the village said

「外國學生來、我們為他們蓋住的地方,我們很高興,我們歡迎他們。 我們的村子會變大,更多人會聚在這裡。」 “When foreign students come and we make a place for them to stay, we are very happy and we welcome them. Our village will be bigger, more people will gather here.”

這解除了捐款人最大的疑慮 ——「我們的錢會不會打擾當地」。 由當地人自己回答,不必辯護。

This answers the donor's most reasonable doubt — “will our money intrude on this place?” — in the villagers' own voice. No defence needed.
