The Si Chuan huge earthquake this time round caused JJ to be remembered of the scary earthquake incident he encountered in Taiwan 5 years ago when he just went there. Coming from Singapore, he had never experienced an Earthquake and at that time, he was living by himself in a hostel. When the room started shaking, he thought that it was just him being overworked and having a headache but after he realise that even the lights on the ceiling were shaking wildly, he thought of what his senior Ah Du reminded him of before "When you first arrive in Taiwan, besides the change in weather and taking care of your body and health, you must also remember that when there's an earthquake, run out into open space immediately. Do not take the lift..." JJ after that said that "It was midnight at that time. i was very scared. My first thought was to start praying. Luckily, I got out peacefully. After staying in Taiwan for some time, I got used to the occasional shake of the ground. The Si Chuan earthquake this time made me feel that disasters really have no sympathy towards people. We cannot predict or control it. And when I see the photos or read the news, I find it hard to believe that they're all the truth. It's very scary and I don't know what I can do for everyone. I can only do what I can and hence, I wrote the song "Love and Hope". I hope that those friends in the disaster area will be able to gain strength from the song and persevere on." JJ also plead to everyone "If I'm at the scene, I might not be of much help because one person's ability is limited. But once united, there will be much that we can achieve. Hopefully, those with money can donate their money. Those that can help will help. We must learn to appreciate what we have."
