After a series of relaxing and fun activities, Secretary General Huang Chin-ying made the following announcement, "With Archilife's Omni-knowledge cultivation system, members have gradually emerged from respective fields. I hope that the refined speech of members of the Public Policy Committee can help every one of you clearly capture the future direction of national development. In addition, traditional laws and regulations must be changed to keep pace with times in order to cope with social unrest. Lastly, I would remind you to consider climate change in whatever you do and make wise judgement to review your act in order to seek survival, pursue a living, and extend life." ![]() Next on the schedule was the keynote speech. First, Mr. Li Yen-yi, a member of the Public Policy Committee, presented a speech on the "A Preliminary View on the New Development Trend of Asia Maritime Cities: Hong Kong, Kaohsiung, Shanghai, and Singapore". First, the speaker shared his recent international conference experience worldwide. In particular, he mentioned the population expansion problem in Singapore's transformation. Then, he talked about the 2015 NTUT+CUHK+SZU+STU held in Kaohsiung where the possibility of "Self-Sustainable Eco-Village" in Taiwan was discussed. At the Cross-Strait Urban Old Age Forum held in Shanghai, the potential impact of social, economic, food, and building trans-use problems on urban and rural development was discussed. To trade-oriented Hong Kong, the inrush of population will be the problem. Lastly, the speaker expressed that although the division of land resources has been stabilized, the striving for maritime resources has just begun. Maritime countries should find the development positioning in order to improve competitiveness. ![]() Next, Mr. Chen Kai-ling, a member of the Public Policy Committee, spoke on "Airport MRT Planning and Development Vision". First, the speaker talked about the characteristics of railway operations, including the exclusive right of way, high personnel expense, large scale, and operational difficulties. Then, he mentioned that the Airport MRT would be exceptionally important to those who would buy their homes outside of the outer counties when estate prices soar, as the line runs across Taipei City, New Taipei City, and Taiyuan City. To transport passengers from and to the airport, the Airport MRT has planned an express line, and the design of the passing loop and overtaking lane should be exceptionally careful. The pre-check-in service will also be planned in the urban area. In terms of operations, quality service, well-planned finance, and expertise are essential. In addition to raising ridership, the development of secondary business is another way to cultivate income sources. In cutting expense, minimizing expense is a way. Lastly, the speaker hoped that the Airport MRT could achieve the goals of system safety and stability, quality service, and sustainable operations. ![]() Next, Mr. Lin Yu-yi, a member of the Public Policy Committee, spoke on "Touching Stories from Earth". First, he mentioned the devastating scene in southern Taiwan and how indigenous communities were forced to leave their homes after the onslaught of typhoon Morakot seven years ago. In addition to the need of hardware housing equipment, they faced cultural inheritance, family cohesion, and employment problems. Then, the speaker explained the difficulties and construction problems of Freeway NO.5. He also mentioned that engineers would build the freeway with a professional and humble attitude to minimize impacts on the environment and respect nature. According the speaker, the collapse of the Shenzhen Industrial Zone in China in 2015 exposed the importance of construction safety management in urban areas. Lastly, he said that although every country has established SOPs for emergency rescue, regrets for timely rescue often arise as the grey zone in the division of responsibility and authority is huge. He shared these stories to hope for a better future of Taiwan! 演講完畢,黃晉英秘書長代表基金會致贈謝禮予主講人。接著在與會者紛紛利用「餵豬時間」提出個人意見與看法互相交流後,圓滿地結束七月份國政聯誼會。 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 July Archilife Public Policy Communion ended smoothly. |
