Taipei - Taiwan's port city Kaohsiung plans to mobilize 50,000 people to form a human Christmas tree to welcome Christmas without cutting trees, the Kaohsiung City Government said on Tuesday. On Saturday evening, 50,000 residents will gather on Shidai Avenue in Kaohsiung, southern Taiwan, to form the shape of a giant Christmas tree, Deputy Mayor Chiu Tai-san said. The participants will hold up flashlights, fluorescent sticks and cell phones so that cameramen can photograph the human Christmas tree from a helicopter, he said. © 2007 dpa - Deutsche Presse-Agentur
