    The Handy Guide for Foreigners in Taiwan Research, Development and Evaluation Commission, Executive Yuan November 2010 A Note from the Editor Following centuries of ethnic cultural assimilation and development, today Taiwan has a population of about 23 million and an unique culture that is both rich and diverse. This is the only green island lying on the Tropic of Cancer, with a plethora of natural landscapes that includes mountains, hot springs, lakes, seas, as well as a richness of biological diversity that encompasses VSHFLHVRIEXWWHUÀLHVELUGVDQGRWKHUSODQWDQGDQLPDOOLIH$TXDUWHU of these are endemic species, such as the Formosan Landlocked Salmon (櫻 花鉤吻鮭), Formosan Black Bear (台灣黑熊), Swinhoe’s Pheasant (藍腹鷴), and Black-faced Spoonbill (黑面琵鷺), making Taiwan an important base for nature conservation. In addition to its cultural and ecological riches, Taiwan also enjoys comprehensive educational, medical, and transportation systems, along with a complete national infrastructure, advanced information technology and communication networks, and an electronics industry and related subcontracting industries that are among the cutting edge in the world.

    China Perspectives 2013/4 | 2013 Chinese Visions of Japan Transcending Victimhood: Japan in the public historical museums of Taiwan and the People’s Republic of China Edward Vickers Electronic version URL: http://journals.openedition.org/chinaperspectives/6316 DOI: 10.4000/chinaperspectives.6316 ISSN: 1996-4617 Publisher Centre d'étude français sur la Chine contemporaine Printed version Date of publication: 1 December 2013 Number of pages: 3 ISSN: 2070-3449 Electronic reference Edward Vickers, « Transcending Victimhood: Japan in the public historical museums of Taiwan and the People’s Republic of China », China Perspectives [Online], 2013/4 | 2013, Online since 01 December 2016, connection on 28 October 2019.

The main focus is on the permanent exhibitions of the modern history wing of the National Museum of China (NMC; formerly the Museum of the Chinese Revolution), which finally reopened in 2011 after almost a de - cade of refurbishment, and of the National Museum of Taiwan History (NMTH), which opened in the same year. It discusses how mu - seum portrayals of Japan reflect divergent public discourses on national identity. Through examining the relationship between mu - seums and the apparatus of the Chinese state (ROC and PRC), the first section locates the NMC and NMTH in their bureaucratic and political contexts.

This was done with a particular focus on the influence of Taiwan’s various colonial relationships that have been developing at least since the Japanese occupation. This thesis also points to the power of historical narrative in identity formation and the negotiations that take place between “official” government sponsored attempts at creating historical narrative as opposed to the attempts we see by authors and filmmakers to expose crucial events in their own identity formation that has been previously been neglected or ignored. The results of this thesis illustrate how Taiwan’s colonial relationships with Japan and China continue to impact Taiwanese identity, particularly due to the influence of the Cold War. Taiwanese have responded to the influence of the Chinese by creating and propagating an image of a multi-cultural Taiwan.

    PROCEEDINGS, 46th Workshop on Geothermal Reservoir Engineering Stanford University, Stanford, California, February 15-17, 2021 SGP-TR-218 Geothermal Resource Evaluation of the Tatun Volcano Group (TVG) Area, Taiwan Tito Satria Putra Perdana1, Bing-Cheng Chen2, Logan Hackett1, Ann Robertson-Tait1, Amber Thomas1 1GeothermEx, Inc. A Schlumberger Company, Richmond, California 2CPC Corporation Taiwan, Miaoli City, Taiwan [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Keywords: Tatun Volcano Group, TVG, Taiwan, Andesite, Wuchihshan Formation, Sandstone, Corrosive, Acidic, Neutralization, Fault, Fracture ABSTRACT The Tatun Volcano Group (TVG) is a typical multi-vent volcano group covering an area of approximately 400 km2 on the northern tip of the island of Taiwan. The TVG is composed of more than 20 Quaternary-age volcanoes, enclosed by NE-SW trending faults such as the Chinshan, Shanchiao and Kanchiao faults. The TVG is seen as a promising target for geothermal exploration due to its abundance of surface thermal manifestations associated with young volcanic rocks. There are four explored thermal areas in the TVG: Tahuangtsui, Matsao, Szehuangtzeping and Jinshan. A series of geothermal exploration studies have been carried out in these thermal areas since the 1960s including geologic, geophysical and geochemistry surveys. In addition to surface exploration data, ITRI and CPC have drilled more than 20 exploration wells (with total depths [TDs] that generally exceed 500 meters) and more than 62 shallow temperature gradient wells (with TDs generally less than 500 meters). Some of these exploration wells encountered commercial temperatures ranging from 200 to 300°C; however, they also encountered very acidic fluids which corroded casings and wellheads.

  • Sustainable Tourism Planning for Taiwanese in Administrative Effects with Respect to Chinese Arrivals
    sustainability Article Sustainable Tourism Planning for Taiwanese in Administrative Effects with Respect to Chinese Arrivals Ruey-Chyn Tsaur 1,* and Chyoug-Hwa Chen 2 1 Department of Management Sciences, Tamkang University, No. 151, Yingzhuan Rd., Danshui Dist., New Taipei City 25137, Taiwan 2 Department of Industrial Development, National Development Council, 4F, 3, Baoqing Rd., Taipei 10020, Taiwan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +886-2-2621-5656 Received: 14 November 2018; Accepted: 7 December 2018; Published: 12 December 2018 Abstract: It has been a crucial achievement for most of the destinations to open up and develop a new inbound market, which means a great opportunity to increase the arrivals and economic benefits. The mighty Chinese outbound market is a welcomed resource but not always the assurance of the economics growth and industries’ profits. While foreseeing the excessive arrivals and low-price groups are harmful to the tourism business and society, the criticism and negative impression shall be prevented in advance. With the considerations of sustainable tourism and a good relationship with China, Taiwan has established a comprehensive administrative tourism mechanism on receptions of travel agencies. The unique mechanism was designed to foster the healthy business models, to construct the win-win political and economic situations, and to ease the possible impacts. By applying the Importance–Performance Analysis, this study reveals the administrative direction that needs to be revised. Among these control requests, the reasonable group fee is the key to fitting the anticipation of receptions of travel agencies. This study further proposes the Importance–Support Analysis and Importance–Performance–Support Analysis frames to enhance the validity of the Importance.

During the four decades of the Martial Law era, the Kuomintang (KMT) regime used museums as vehicles for its campaigns to nurture patriotic citizens of a “Republic of China” encompassing the entire Chinese mainland. However, with the onset of democratisation from the late 1980s, museums increasingly reflected and reinforced a strengthening consensus over Taiwan’s historical and cultural distinctiveness, while also mirroring the considerable pluralism of popular identity consciousness. This trend was accentuated under the regime of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) after 2000, but 2008 witnessed the return to power of a KMT determined to establish warmer ties with China.

The study was conducted by analyzing publication records from scientific citation-indexing services Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus, which covered 216 and 573 journals in the field of education last year respectively. Based on WoS data, Taiwan had 1.73 citations per paper (CPP), trailed by the Netherlands with 1.55, and Scopus data showed that Taiwan’s CPP in 2010 was 0.97 (2nd-highest after Belgium). The research was published in the June edition of “Scientometrics.” • The National Science Council (NSC) found that its 2009-2013 National Science Technology Program—energy project has delivered fruitful results in increasing energy independence, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, promoting energy-use efficiency and structural change, as well as creating energy technology research plans. NSC pointed out that the program has achieved success especially in energy conservation technologies such as high-efficiency yellow organic light-emitting diodes, variable frequency drive centrifugal chillers, smart electric grids and offshore wind farm development. A total of 10,560 papers, 9,253 doctoral students, 1,007 patents and 1,069 cases of technology transformation were funded under the NT$ 25 bio.
