For 7,000 years, the Keqiutou site has stood as a testament to the origins of the Austronesian language family. Lailai, an Amis girl from central Taiwan, felt a deep connection to this ancestral land, leading her on a journey to trace her roots. Her quest brought her to Fujian's Pingtan, where she has now settled and found a new home.
In Pingtan, Lailai channels her heritage and experiences into her music, creating original songs that weave the story of cross-Straits integration. Her melodies and lyrics resonate with audiences who share a common dream of reunification, touching the hearts of many across the Taiwan region and beyond.
Lailai's journey is not just a personal exploration but a bridge between cultures, fostering understanding and unity through the universal language of music. Her work exemplifies how art can play a pivotal role in bringing people together, celebrating shared histories, and envisioning a harmonious future.
