By Matthew Fulco TAIWAN BUSINESS TOPICS • JANUARY 2019 5 1_19 Contents.indd 5 2019/1/2 上午1:34 PRESIDENT'S VIEW Food is a Serious Business spent nearly 20 years of my career in the news business. Sometimes people ask me: What was your most popular story? Which one attracted the most attention? My Ianswer is a bit embarrassing, though it probably shouldn’t be. As a foreign correspondent, I got to cover a lot of big breaking news -- presiden- tial elections, Olympics in Beijing, global summits, riots, suicide bombings, earthquakes, plane crashes, and economic booms and busts. But the story that got the most feedback from readers was a travel feature I wrote in 2004 about what’s for breakfast in Taipei. I began the piece by pointing out that most people around the world have a good idea of what’s on the menu for lunch and dinner at a Chinese restaurant. But few might be aware there’s an entirely different menu for breakfast. And it’s absolutely delicious. My story described with great detail and enthusiasm tasty morning delights such as egg pancakes (danbing, ), twisted crullers (youtiao, ), soybean milk (doujiang, ), rice wraps (fantuan, ) and – my all-time favorite – baked wheat cakes with egg (shaobing jia dan, ). I was working for The Associated Press wire service at the time, so my story was sent to newspapers all over the world. The company likes to say that more than half the world’s population sees its content every day. And it seemed like half the world really did read my story. For nearly a year, I received clippings in the mail every week from papers that printed the story. Readers sent me plenty of letters and e-mails about how much they love eating breakfast in Taiwan or how they were intrigued by the unfamiliar morning cuisine. I guess I shouldn’t feel embarrassed – or surprised – that my most popular story was about what’s for breakfast in Taiwan. Food is a serious business. And it’s a big busi- ness. It also tells you a lot about a country’s history, culture, and character. Appreciating the food of a place brings you closer to understanding the people – and that’s crucial for commerce. I’m sure TOPICS readers are already well aware of this connection, and that helps explain why our annual Wine and Dine issue is so popular. Food is best when shared, so I encourage our readers to share these stories with their friends.

    RE-ORIENTING CUISINE Food, Nutrition, and Culture Series Editors: Rachel Black, Boston University Leslie Carlin, University of Toronto Published by Berghahn Books in Association with the Society for the Anthropology of Food and Nutrition (SAFN). While eating is a biological necessity, the production, distribution, preparation, and consumption of food are all deeply culturally inscribed activities. Taking an anthropological perspective, this book series provides a forum for thought-pro- voking work on the bio-cultural, cultural, and social aspects of human nutrition and food habits. Th e books in this series bring timely food-related scholarship to the graduate and upper-division undergraduate classroom, to a research- focused academic audience, and to those involved in food policy.

  • An Expert-Based Assessment Model for Evaluating Habitat Suitability of Pond-Breeding Amphibians
    sustainability Article An Expert-Based Assessment Model for Evaluating Habitat Suitability of Pond-Breeding Amphibians Shin-Ruoh Juang 1, Szu-Hung Chen 2 and Chen-Fa Wu 1,* 1 Department of Horticulture, National Chung Hsing University, Taichung City 402, Taiwan; [email protected] 2 Department of Ecosystem Science & Management, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX 77843, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel./Fax: +886-4-2285-9125 Academic Editor: Iain Gordon Received: 8 November 2016; Accepted: 10 February 2017; Published: 16 February 2017 Abstract: Farm ponds are important habitats for amphibians, birds, and other wildlife. In Taiwan, artificial ponds were originally created on farmlands for irrigation purposes and the needs of the domestic water supply. Although pond creation is a typical farming practice, it also provides habitats for pond-breeding amphibians. Thus, it is essential to understand the current status of habitats and their vulnerability regarding urgent conservation needs for target species. Günther’s frog (Hylarana guentheri), a pond-breeding amphibian, has a high sensitivity towards surrounding environmental changes, and can be used as an indicator species to assess habitat suitability. The purpose of this study is to establish a systematic framework to assess the habitat suitability of pond-breeding amphibians by using Günther’s frog as a pilot-study species. First, we collected frog survey data from Chiayi, Taiwan, from winter 2013 to spring 2015, and investigated the present status of the environmental conditions around the ponds. Next, expert questionnaires and the fuzzy Delphi method were applied to establish the hierarchical evaluation criteria regarding the habitat suitability assessment.

Lieberman The Anderson School at UCLA Box 951481 Los Angeles, CA 90095-1481 E-mail: [email protected] Tel: 310-206-7665 Fax: 310-206-3337 February 19, 2011 1 Who Imitates Whom? A Study on New Product Introductions in the Japanese Soft-drink Industry ABSTRACT Imitation is observed in various contexts in the business world and numerous theories on imitation have been proposed. Incumbent theories on imitation are organized into two broad categories: information-based theories and rivalry-based theories. Information-based theories propose that firms follow others that are perceived as having superior information. Rivalry-based theories propose that firms imitate others to maintain competitive parity or limit rivalry. This study tries to distinguish among the theories by examining when and what kinds of firms are more likely to be followed by others in their new product introductions in the Japanese soft-drink industry. The empirical analysis shows that in brand-new product imitation, firms follow large competitors, while in product proliferation within established product categories, firms do not tend to follow large firms but mimic others of similar size. These contrasting results are reasonable, suggesting that two theories on imitation coexist and environmental uncertainty may be one of key distinguishing characteristics. In the case of brand-new products, firms face much uncertainty.
