Father and son reunited over voucher distribution

The father of a disabled 25-year-old nicknamed “A-he,” who has lived at the southern Pingtung Christian Bethany Home since the age of five, recently showed up at the institution to pick up his son so he could claim his shopping voucher.

According to the treatment institution, A-he's father had stopped contacting his son and the institution for nearly two decades and owed the Bethany Home about NT$1 million in care service fees.

“We thought A-he's family had decided to cut all contact with him,” a representative of the Bethany Home told Apple Daily. “But his father recently contacted us saying he wished to take A-he to claim his vouchers himself.”

“Seeing how A-he misses his family, we are willing to cease our efforts in claiming his father's debt in the meantime,” said the representative.
