短介Brief：In this series, we continue to welcome Tan (Thailand) and Bongani (Eswatini) to join in the discussion. Thailand as a member of ASEAN is also experiencing the 3rd wave of outbreaks like we have here in Taiwan. Even Eswatini is far away in Africa, as Bongani told us previously the condition is not good. Let's listen to them in this episode! 這一系列我們第二個場次，也是最後一個場次，繼續來訪談另外兩個國家的國際學生，Tan (泰國) 以及 Bongani (史瓦帝尼) 加入了今天的討論。和前兩集越南一樣，泰國屬於東南亞國協之一，更正經歷著和台灣一樣的新冠肺炎疫情(第三波)爆發；史瓦帝尼雖然遠在非洲，但從Bongani的描述，其實之前的狀況也是非常的不理想；一起來聽聽他們怎麼說吧！

"主持人Ms. GG 懺情錄：這是最後一場次了，這主題 Covid-19 pandemic in me and in my home country。原本應該有三個場次，七個國家八個人，但是後來因為許多因素包含這一個台灣的疫情爆發，所以只安排了上一場次的貝里斯還有越南 (part 1 和 part 2)，這一場次的泰國和史瓦帝尼就算是最後一個場次了。同樣也是分為上下集，算是這一系列的part 3 和 part 4。"

回顧 Catch-up: 貝里斯 Belize and 越南 Vietnam (part 1 and part 2)

In this series, “Covid-19 pandemic in me and in my home country”, we appreciated having Tan (Thailand) and Bongani (Eswatini) join in the discussion. Bongani arrived in Taiwan to start his Ph.D. study in September 2019, which made him away from home where many beloved relatives and friends died because of Covid-19. Bongani didn’t experience the outbreak in Eswatini but now he is together with all Taiwanese people experiencing this wave of community outbreak in Taiwan. Tan luckily to go back to Thailand to visit his parents at the end of 2020, that he experienced a 14-days quarantine on both sides of Thailand and also Taiwan. Coincidently, this wave of Covid-19 strikes Asia, not only in Thailand but also in Taiwan, around the same time. Let us listen to what they are observing here in Taiwan and also share their understanding from their own countries.

這一系列，”Covid-19 pandemic in me and in my home country”，我們很高興能夠繼續邀請到泰國的Tan還有史瓦帝尼的Bongani！Bongani在2019年的九月來到台灣，重新開始他的博士班就讀，剛好讓他完全避開史瓦帝尼國家內的疫情越發嚴重，並且我們也發現他在台灣的同時，許多他親近的家人和朋友也因為新冠肺炎而過世。Tan很幸運的，還能夠回去泰國曼谷探望他的父母親，同時具有兩邊泰國和台灣的14天居家檢疫的親身體驗。很剛好的，這一波新冠肺炎的疫情，在亞洲差不多同時捲起了各國的疫情爆發 (四月／五月)！

讓我們來聽聽看他們在台灣的觀察，還有對照他們自己國家的狀況。
