He was worried that there were no specialized programs to cultivate
electro-acoustics talent. Therefore he gave a generous donation to Feng Chia
University to nurture talent in this field in May 2006, with the expectation that
the electro-acoustics industry would become an important industry in Taiwan.
In August 2007, the Graduate Program in Electro-Acoustics was set up by
Feng Chia University. In September 2008, Merry Electro-acoustic Laboratory
was established with ISO3745 and ISO 7779 standards.
•Purpose

Cultivate talent in electro-acoustics to satisfy industry needs.
 Fit Taiwan’s policy of developing electro-acoustic science.
