Nowadays, Nansha has become a modern urban area with high-rises and convenient transportation. He said, “In the past, we had to depend on the weather when we went out to sea to fish. Now that technology has advanced, life has become better.” thl001213_1 https://padlet.com/thl001213_1/q6kysu2rwhwtp1ab/wish/3322204530 2025-02-10 08:44:39 UTC https://padlet.com/thl001213_1/q6kysu2rwhwtp1ab/wish/3322204530 Because the countryside was not so developed at that time, there was no place to listen to songs, so there was no favorite song. But what he liked best was the folk song he sang with his friends when he was a child, unfortunately he has forgotten the name. thl001213_1 https://padlet.com/thl001213_1/q6kysu2rwhwtp1ab/wish/3322207140 2025-02-10 08:46:57 UTC https://padlet.com/thl001213_1/q6kysu2rwhwtp1ab/wish/3322207140
