Recently, I was fortunate to participate in Taiwan Taiwan's National Sun Yat-sen Graduate School Forum organized on both sides. This line of ten days, our party of sixteen people from the south to the north of Taiwan, Taiwan, went to three major cities in Taiwan: Kaohsiung, Taichung and Taipei. Among them, the longest stay in Kaohsiung, about five days. If I had the impression that Taiwan is vague, sentimental, and that through this ten-day trip to Taiwan, I have the impression of Taiwan will be more real and rational. Although these impressions are far from understanding Taiwan, but at least worth out and share with you the impression that one: the urban landscape and human qualities. Whether Kaohsiung, Taichung, or Taipei, the city is clean and tidy, never seen littering the roadside. I've been to some of the alleys in these cities, the situation is the same as the basic and main streets are clean and tidy. Impressed me most was the basic quality of the people in Taiwan. If you take the Kaohsiung and Wuhan, where I compared, I dare say, the overall quality of Kaohsiung citizens than two decades leading to Wuhan. I can give you a simple example. We had many Taiwanese students eat lunch together. Taiwanese students after eating, very consciously the remaining garbage, put leftovers into a trash can, the trash boxes into another, there is a trash can throw tied lunch with chopsticks and put a rubber band. This process is not possible in terms of Wuhan, which can pack their garbage has been pretty good, not to mention seriously so carefully to complete garbage classification. Similarly, all public places in Taiwan, I did not see one person smoking, did not see one person make mess of garbage and spitting. Perhaps influenced by the culture of the day, the Taiwan people and things in his speech, when some more humble and polite, thank you is probably the word I hear most frequently impression two in Taiwan public places: city traffic. On the road all the major cities in Taiwan, almost invisible bike, bus not much more of a motorcycle. Every rush hour, looking ahead is long motorcycle stream. I estimate that the penetration rate of motorcycles in Taiwan and the mainland can bike penetration comparable. Taiwan is also a lot of cars, mostly Japanese cars, nisan, Toyota, Honda and other visible everywhere, I guess the Japanese car market share in Taiwan is about 80%. Faced with a huge motorcycle and automobile stream flow, traffic order in major cities in Taiwan, but still good. We take the bus several times on the shuttle in the city during rush hour, you can never encountered a decent traffic jam. The reason for this phenomenon may consist of a variety, but the Taiwanese consciousness of class rule is probably one aspect which can not be ignored. In Taiwan, I have not seen a pedestrian or a vehicle past the traffic lights. Whether doing busy time traffic, or in the quiet of a small intersection, pedestrian or vehicle without a disregard for traffic rules. To tell the truth, I am ashamed when we Kaohsiung shopping, there are a few of our classmates saw very little road Exalted habit of going through a red light impression 3: The motherland of the concept of cognition. We often say that Taiwan is an inalienable part of the motherland. But in the lives of the people of Taiwan, it has been little mention of the word. Because the continent is too far away from their lives, their only contact with the life of the Taiwan authorities, only Republic of China. In Taiwan and many teachers and students to communicate, they will not consciously use the country, Central and other words, but I know this is completely different and we understand. Although these students and their teachers are not Taiwan independence elements, but that title has become their subconscious habit. This phenomenon has made me feel very sad, very confused impression of four: the same root, the same species, homologous family. Taiwan, for me, is mysterious, strange, but then came to Taiwan, you will find that no matter where, in addition to traditional and some of the details, and you almost can not find what continent different places. Sometimes walking down the street, I felt as if in the continent, but is somewhere in Fujian or Guangdong. In Taiwan, road or alley, you will often see the name such as Shandong dumplings, Fujian chaos like advertising a small hotel. When we eat, but also repeatedly visited the Yellow Crane Tower in Kaohsiung restaurant. All this makes us feel quite at home. This kind of feeling, so I can not help but feel kind of funny for their initial mystery and strangeness. In everyday communication, in addition to a number of different terms habits, there is no obstacle. Questions about the wording of habit more interesting, the people of Taiwan to what we call guide called navigation, what we call the Introduction (noun) as brief, we called Metro They called the MRT. Use these words are more westernized. In addition, I found the girls speak in Taiwan is indeed a little whine, but I feel pretty good. Language students in Taiwan, often Chinese and English mixed case, which also makes me a little suited, my English is not very good, a lot of time to react, but the impression Five: Taiwan's economy. Kaohsiung five days, I had some emotional understanding of the current economic situation in Taiwan. Of course, my understanding is not based on statistics, but based on my observation of people's daily lives in Kaohsiung. Kaohsiung is Taiwan's second largest city, is also one of Taiwan's two provincial cities (the other is in Taipei), so the level of economic development as observed in Kaohsiung of Taiwan's economic development benchmark. For the economic development of the situation in Kaohsiung, I can use to describe the word depression. Due to the economic downturn, the real estate market slump, a large housing backlog. Walking through the streets of Kaohsiung, anytime you can see houses for sale or rent advertising. In addition, in the bustling district of Kaohsiung, also often see large tracts of wasteland long abandoned, nobody cares. We also heard when taxi drivers complain, because the sluggish economy, the taxi industry's revenue to dwindle, the current monthly income of only about half of the original. If you look from the city to evaluate the case, the whole region to the low-rise building in Kaohsiung-based, quantity and quality of high-rise buildings are not on Wuhan. Seen as one of Asia's four little dragons of the year, Taiwan's economy has slid into a trough currently, can smooth out the bottom, is still unknown. From the point of view the current situation in Taiwan, Ma Ying-jeou came to power has not changed all that, at least from the feeling of the people of Taiwan are so impressed Six: Sanlu milk powder. Our time in Taiwan, but also so much noise about the Sanlu milk scandal, when the most vicious. At that time, all the media in Taiwan are involved in such things reported. Of course, an event of endangering public health and safety in-depth and objective coverage of the media responsibility. However, in Taiwan, I see not. Sanlu milk powder incident has become a powerful tool for political struggle against the forces of Taiwan, blue, green, and has become the best weapon to demonize China mainland. At that time, many pan-green media, almost twenty-four hours intermittently seen in reporting the incident, their gimmick is the China toxic milk! Almost every newspaper or TV are greatly exaggerated, China tainted milk the harm, and even some dark media call for Taiwanese inferior Chinese pig! Taiwanese and Chinese Is it in the hearts of these people are so distinguishing obvious? Sanlu milk powder incident has become a powerful weapon for the KMT to the DPP-led pan-green forces to attack the ruling, because of the DPP's stalker and exaggerated, Ma Ying-jeou led government Health Director 林郁芳 resignation. After 林郁芳 resignation, the pan-green forces still do not relent, and the KMT dominated the cabinet to start the offensive, calling for cabinet collective resignation, completely ignoring the situation faced by the people of Taiwan at that time (when Taiwan had just suffered landslides in many areas and typhoon disaster victims in urgent need of a large number of rescue). Of course, in this matter also shows the flaws and shortcomings in the Ma administration's ability to govern, for example, melamine standard for determining the Ma administration overwhelmed the standard three-day change, so that people and businesses at a loss, complaining that this DPP has left a deadly handle Sanlu milk powder incident is the only news I have seen on the mainland during Taiwan, as the Shenzhou VII launch and other major news, most of Taiwan's media is keeping silent and low profile . I did seem to understand, the people of Taiwan on the mainland there are so many misconceptions, this is probably a long time and selectivity reported Taiwan media have a great relationship. I also appeared in mainland Sanlu so no social conscience and responsibility of enterprises saddened and ashamed!
Impression seven: one old man. I know this gentleman Taiwan itself is a coincidence. That was the night in Taipei, we went out to fight back to the hotel. The old man is the driver of this car is. In return no intention of chatting on the way when he hear the accents of our continent. So, he told us that he is the mainland people, but he's a year old when he came to Taiwan with his father, which flash almost six decades. He also told us that his father was the famous Kuomintang generals Wei Lihuang a brigadier men, and later also served as Transportation Secretary in Tianjin. Later, the KMT to Taiwan after his father withdrew from political and military, to teach for a living. He grew up in Taiwan, grew up, his father told him a lot of history, left a very deep impression. Growing up, he was in the business for the industry, and accumulated some wealth. After the eighties, with the mainland's reform and opening up, he also became the first batch of landing in Taiwan. After a few years of hard work in the mainland, due to the business downturn, he returned to Taiwan to become an idler. So he bought a taxi, nothing else will come out Akira, not for money, just for pleasure. At the time, he was in the car and we chatted for a while. We should get off, it seems that both sides feel enough, so the old man asked the two of you did not have time now? If you have time, I set you go around, find a place to drink coffee, I ask you, by the way and then have a conversation. My classmate and China Branch hesitated, in the elderly has repeatedly insisted it would not affect his business, when we got on. In a street cafe sit back, accompanied by a deep sense of latte flavor, we opened the chatterbox. This talk is three hours, raising his hand when the watch has a wee bit more if you say that in front of a few days, my impression of Taiwan, then just float with the surface, then by talking with the old gentleman let me More in-depth understanding of some of the things in Taiwanese society. We talked a lot that night, after I came back summed up the following points:
First, Taiwan's politics. Taiwan's democracy is much talked about, to put this democratic institutions in mainland China as a model of learning and imitation. Meanwhile, these people put a lot of current problems facing the Chinese mainland purely attributed to the political system, as long as the study of the naive belief that Western political system, establishing a pattern of Taiwan's political system, many things can be solved. However, the old man to have their own views on this in the exchange, the old gentleman was not respected Taiwan's democracy, on the contrary, he believes that the Taiwan people's living the happiest, the fastest-growing economy, the government is the most corrupt period of Chiang Ching-kuo period. Of course, he also believes that martial law atmosphere of Chiang Ching-kuo era for some people is indeed a great misfortune, because the interests of these people are not met. These people are what we now see DPP early backbone. At this point, the old man talked about his understanding of the DPP. He said that in 1964 to 1966, He was in the gendarmerie service, you have repeatedly experienced the face of those so-called democrats. In the event of street marches and demonstrations, they will be responsible for the streets of alert and the maintenance of order, the so-called democrats rushed in front of them, and they shouted, deliberately provoked the conflict, but they put these democrats arrest back , those who are not so hands-on like a dog, kneeling down to beg for mercy. Here, a little old man smiled proudly. He also said: Do you think the DPP really make you really want to do is definitely not a democracy DPP shouted such slogans but in order to win the KMT's world, is the time for their own interests?? .. Taiwan is one of the world mainlanders KMT almost all military and political officials are from mainland China, Taiwan natives has been suppressed, so that ambitious natives will hit the independence, democracy and anti-corruption slogan, but when the DPP really seized power, the DPP himself reduced to the most dirty and shameless party. use money to buy votes and the people, are the most common tactic DPP you know any of Chen Shui-bian when experienced so massive fall flat sport, why can not get? because the main person responsible for almost all investigative agencies have received had his money and you do not accept his money, you're not his people, he At any time you will not use, he said: Do you know why the DPP in southern Taiwan have such a high support rate because the DPP where you put a lot of bets, each cast DPP? tickets can get five thousand people a reward of NT due to underdeveloped southern Taiwan's economy, limited human quality, a little small for many farmers immediate interests sold out their ballots, but such a strategy, especially in northern Taiwan is no way near Taipei implemented, because this high level of economic development, independent thinking people about the current Chen laundering scandal, he said:.. Ma government will fully investigate and deal with this is not why the principles of justice and ., but because he wanted a good show for the people to get votes, strive for re-election in 2012, he added: If the incident is that Lee Teng-hui, then he would go to Japan to go, you want to check it Charles could not, however, Chen did not retreat now, because he is not a pro-Japanese, but also the Americans offended, so he had nowhere to escape, only to wait in Taiwan. did have a lot of 'legislators' incident, ran overseas is no excuse what happened.
Ma Ying-jeou of the old gentleman evaluation is still relatively high, he said: Ma Ying-jeou this man really clean, if not corrupt politicians in Taiwan which, it can be considered a Ma Ying-jeou. But he also believes that Ma Ying-jeou political capacity can not, things rigidities, engage in political struggle, courage is definitely not a good Hendou DPP opponent. Meanwhile, Ma also know that the KMT is not very clean, so after he was elected KMT wants to draw a line, to eliminate the influence of political black gold for him. However, his ideas failed, there is no strong caucus support forces, his president can not do anything for the elderly also talked about the benefits of opening up Taiwan's ban on political parties, that is what the people all say the words, you can say, you can curse national leader, which is impossible in the era of Chiang Ching-kuo. However, the old me and the whole conversation, I did not develop his current Taiwan-called democracy have any esteem, some just for Chen and the DPP evil disgust and discontent Second, Taiwan economy. Speaking of Taiwan's economy, the elderly can not help but burst of sad, sad to say: Since the ruling party, Taiwan's economy has held up at least eight years. He said, because Taiwan's economic development and downs of large, Taiwan now has money to overseas buyers who would have put a lot of wealth transfer, if Taiwan's economic collapse, and the third, the impact of the lower middle class American society is also impaired in Taiwan. Taiwan will not survive without the United States, which is the core of the old man's point of view. He believes that the United States are the real masters of Taiwan, strictly restrict whether political, economic, or from the defense of Taiwan have received from the United States. Then the old man spoke of the arms procurement bill. .
