正值除旧迎新之时,马来西亚却爆发了40多年来最严重的洪灾,目前已造成10人死亡,并迫使近16万人迁离家园。其中,吉兰丹州受灾最为严重,百分之六十的面积受灾。马来亚大学号召教职员工参与灾后重建的工作,孔子学院积极响应号召,先后组织了募捐和灾后援建两项活动。 孔院的中马两方员工均积极响应,纷纷捐款。2015年1月5日,孔子学院中马方员工在中外方院长的带领下共计11人驱车12小时前往吉兰丹州,参与灾后援建工作。沿途所见风景,已不是往日郁郁葱葱的丛林和整洁漂亮的房屋。泛滥的河水泥沙混杂,肆意流淌;泥石流来势汹涌,冲坏了许多道路;大片大片的树木在洪水的洗劫之后,枯死倒塌;一些房屋已经垮塌,另一些房屋的进水量已高至窗户,甚至屋顶;大量的轿车、沙发、电子产品等家电家具被毁坏,村民在屋前焚烧家具。目之所及,尽是荒凉。 2015年1月6日,孔院员工来到吉兰丹州首府哥打巴鲁的一所女子学校,帮助校方做清扫工作。教室里的淤泥近一寸厚,打扫起来困难很大。孔院老师带着高压水枪、铁锨和扫帚,开始一点一点的打扫。泥浆吸附能力很强,门窗、墙壁上的泥迹需要用抹布一点点的擦拭,泥水也极易流动,一个教室要反反复复清理十来遍才能彻底洗净。经过一天的苦战,一楼的所有教室、卫生间、储藏室、走廊和台阶已干净如初。当地人为孔院员工送来饭菜,并一再致谢。 2015年1月7日,当孔院员工早上8点再次到达受灾学校后,发现校门口自发聚集了上百位当地人,皆自备清洁工具,让我们格外惊喜。在孔子学院员工和当地百姓的共同努力下,一举将受灾最严重的学生宿舍和地下室清理干净。当晚,孔院员工又驱车12小时返回吉隆坡,虽然路途遥远、工作辛苦,但每个人都收获了感恩与爱心,充满了劳动者的关荣与喜悦。 此次援建活动再一次展现了中华民族“一方有难,八方支援”的伟大人道主义情怀,增进了中马双方的深厚友谊,增强了孔子学院各位教职员工的社会责任感。裨益颇丰,收获颇多。
