After a series of relaxing and fun activities, Secretary General Huang Chin-ying introduced the new knowledge keepers, including traffic engineering keeper Mr. Chen Yu-ming, and scriptures keeper Mr. Liang En-wei. Next, Secretary General Huang Chin-ying made the following announcement, "Russia's invasion of Ukraine pushed global inflation to a higher level. There is no exception, including Taiwan. The global countries work hard to combat inflation. In the US, the Fed raises interest rates to reduce the upward pressure on the price but the higher interest rates also affect the market. You need personal financial planning to weather the inflation storm. Moreover, the AI boom is on the horizon. Take the hot-topic ChatGPT for example. It relies on massive amounts of data to provide more accurate service. What was described in the movies now becomes a reality. In the Archilife Living Special Team Conferences, we discussed to find a direction for future. Archilife is under generation transition nowadays. It is expected to see that some new thinking inspires changes in this digital age, we can make the best preparations, form the power to change Taiwan." ![]() Next on the schedule was the keynote speech. First, Mr. Liu Ding-chyu presented a speech on the "Close Connection of Supply Chain and Information Security". The speaker pointed out the rising awareness of information security among the global enterprises. Hackers use malware on face-off or indirect attacks against weak links in the supply chain. We can find many examples in hardware (such as Mirai), software (log4j) and contractors (government contractors). The information security of national defense is also a concern. Therefore, the Taiwan government establishes the "Center of Assessment and Management of Level Certificates of Regulated Military Materials Suppliers" to ensure that everything is on the right track. The speaker shared the details about the assessment of "information security management" and common problems. The speaker expected that more quality vendors would join the national defense industry, effectively combine government and private forces to develop the defense industry, to help Taiwan achieve autonomy in the defense sector. ![]() Next, Mr. Li Yen-yi spoke on "Taoyuan Metro Green Line Eco Urban and Regional Planning Strategy". The speaker introduced the general area planning of G12、G13、G13a stations. There were many clusters, ponds and drainages so that the planning area is full of life. In the 2022 International USR Design Workshop of Chung Yuan Christian University, in-depth analysis and field surveys have been conducted to understand the locals’ voice and seek their understanding in order to find a common ground. The speaker shared how to combine the above information with professional analysis to re-plan the space. The ecological issue can be considered in the planning of ecological reserve areas. The zones for expropriation are redefined based not on human factors but on ecological balance to seek the feasibility of coexistence of new forms of agricultural production and urban development. Finally, the speaker reminded that we can go from urban design to urban planning to build a healthy and sustainable city. ![]() Next, Ms. Yu Hsiu-yun spoke on "Joining Public Service to Pursue Ideal Career". The speaker mentioned that the Ministry of Examination is the national examination organization, and introduced the national examination system and overview. However, the Ministry is also affected by the low birth rate and sends out an official letter requiring universities and colleges to encourage students to join the public servant examinations. It has never happened before. For anyone who is interested, please find the information on its website. Many new examination measures will be applied from 2023 and there is competency analysis of national examinations on the website. The speaker used Singapore as an example. Talents cultivation is an important issue in Singapore and a systematic training for civil servants begins from high schools. Taiwan takes some advantages of the system to build a trainee civil servant program. The speaker emphasized that civil service is not the only option in your career but you must understand it. The speaker hoped that everyone could develop their talents and find a career that is most suitable. ![]() After the speech, Secretary General Huang Chin-ying presented a gift to the speakers on behalf of the foundation. Then, attendees expressed and exchanged their opinions and views during the piggy hour. The February Archilife Public Policy Communion ended smoothly. |
