A traditional Chinese birthday tribute was presented to founder Ming Tchou on the occasion of her 80th birthday, wishing her a long life with no boundaries and no harm. The words, boundaries and harm, in Chinese, are both homonyms of the word for ginger. Ginger is therefore the traditional basis of birthday tributes. This colorful one was created by Robert Bergad.
