In the face of the arrival of the digital age, the "Gig Economy" has emerged. These emerging sharing economy models represent the development of symbiotic digitalized new civilizations. Moreover, the recent news of the steel quality scandal in Kobe, Japan tells us that maintaining a consistent reputation is very important. I would remind everyone to be prudent in their words and behavior, while making proper decisions." ![]() Next on the schedule was the keynote speech. First, Mr. Chou Po-cheng, presented a speech on the "From International Exchange and Visiting to the Promotion of Local Construction Policy". The lecturer first mentioned the main events he participated in 2017. Besides stressing the event topic of "Innovation & Integration" from WSBE17 Hong Kong, he also mentioned the ideas of sustainable symbiosis and smart health care from the summit forum of Kaohsiung Green Architecture and Building Material Expo. Furthermore, he also visited the zero-carbon architecture technology of Osaka, Japan and explored its application in everyday life and the reactivation of old buildings. He then mentioned techniques on sustainable design at the International Forum on Innovative Low-Carbon and Green Buildings in Subtropical Area. While taking part in these events, he realized that climate change is an irreversible phenomenon, while global warming has caused problems such as the melting of permanent frozen layers and carbon dioxide emission, and reminds everyone to pay attention to these issues. ![]() Next, Ms. Su Mei-ju, spoke on "Case Study on the Preservation of Cultural Heritage: Key Points on Historical Site Preservation". First, The lecturer first mentioned the definition of cultural heritage and gave us practical examples. For example, Bixia Temple of Yilan City could be preserved through an emphasis on citizens and the administration, in addition to the amendment of Cultural Heritage Preservation Act. The pond in front of Lu's Residence at Toucheng was originally faced with the crisis of being filled up by workers hired by the property owner, but was preserved and repaired due to the notification of the citizens and bulk transfer compensation measures. The Yilan branch of the First Bank was also preserved due to citizen notification and the resilience of its authority. Although private historical sites enjoy many rights such as tax exemption, repairing subsidy, and bulk transfer, they still have obligations such as not being able to relocate, tear or destroy them. She expected that we could all support the promotion of cultural heritage preservation. ![]() Next, Mr. Wang Wen-an, spoke on "Observation on the Architectural Skin of Latitude 13 North and Latitude 31 North". First, The lecturer first explained that this topic was based 9 degrees north and south of Pingtung, which is Latitude 22 North. Currently, his research topic focuses on climate change adjustment strategies regarding climate warming, including phenomenon such as high temperature, drought, and strong shower. By observing the architecture in Singapore (Latitude 1 North), Bangkok (Latitude 13 North) and Jiangnan, China (Latitude 31 North), he came up with the following concepts: shrink architecture capacity, increase corridors, fragment of space, the increasing of architectural skin to obtain more light and wind, 3-dimensional greening, and shades. From the observation results of these regions, he reflected on how to adjust the preventive restraints regarding architectural skin in Taiwan's architecture laws and wonder if there are more possibilities and breakthrough spaces in them. He said that with the effort of everybody in imputing new ideas, we could then change the environment and cope with climate change! ![]() After the speech, Secretary General Huang Chin-ying presented a gift to the speakers on behalf of the foundation.
