Raised in Burnaby, Arkieh used to tell people he was Chinese before embracing his Taiwanese Indigenous identity.
Kapa Arkieh 是位有著遠大夢想的溫哥華音樂家。作為一位富有魅力的表演者，他的目標是取得一定程度的成功，能使他為太平洋另一邊的原住民兒童改變世界。“我想利用音樂以及音樂帶來的資金，在台灣的村莊開設教育中心，” Arkieh 透過 Zoom 告訴 Pancouver。，“當我踏上這段旅程時，我意識到音樂確實救了我的命。”
The Society of We Are Canadians Too created Pancouver to foster greater appreciation for underrepresented artistic communities. A rising tide of understanding lifts all of us.
This project is funded in part by the Government of Canada.
We would like to acknowledge that we are gathered on the traditional and unceded territories of the Coast Salish peoples of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam Indian Band), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish Nation), and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation). With this acknowledgement, we thank the Indigenous peoples who still live on and care for this land.
