It Is a Must to Carry "My Bottle"
The Republic of China
In Japan, the number of people who carry a “My Bottle” seems to be increasing. In Taipei, many people already carry a “My Bottle.” The members who come to the Taipei Missionary Center always bring a “My Bottle,” which contains water or tea.
This kind of custom is not just for the environment. Since Taipei has a tropical climate, five months from May to September are the summer. On many days, the temperature goes over 30 degrees Centigrade, so it is important to drink fluid even when you are out on business. Also, because the tap water, as is, is not drinkable, it has always been the custom to put boiled water or tea in a portable container and carry it around. That old custom is receiving fresh recognition in this age of environment.
What do you do, then, when you run out of water in “My Bottle” while in the office or when you are out on business? It will be explained next month.
