Minister of Education, Dr. Pan Wen-chung, indicated that life education is the foundation of education in general. It covers moral education, positive discipline, human rights and character development. It allows each and every student to find out their own values.

In addition, Minister Pan praised Nanhua University for implementing life education using the theme of Three Acts of Goodness, which are "to do good deeds, to speak good words and to think good thoughts", which students are able to apply in their daily lives. At the same time, he also thanked the University for making full use of the Life Education Center. Lin Tsong-Ming, president of Nanhua University, pointed out that the school has been devoted to promoting the "Three Acts of Goodness" campaign and to implement life education since the university’s early days. Not only has the university integrated various life education resources of major colleges and universities but it has also extended life education to schools of all levels and in all counties and cities; on the other hand, the University expanded and shared its experiences with different non-governmental organizations. In 2017, the program has extended into the mainland, Hong Kong and Macao and gradually into Southeast Asia with the goal of covering the entire region in the future while becoming the benchmark for promoting life education in Asia. In September, 2017, with the support of the Ministry of Education, the University set up an office of the Life Education Center at Fo Guang Shan Educational and Cultural Centre in New Delhi, India. This is the first Life Education Center in India with hopes to promote culture and education exchanges between Taiwan and India leading to the development of life education in Asia.
