With the Uni- versiade approaching, the Taipei City Government held “Taipei Universiade 365 Day Countdown Carnival” in the square in front of Taipei City Hall on August 20th. There were 22 games booths on-site, giving the public a taste of the different sporting events. In the United States, the NBA’s Jeremy Lin was the focus of the famed “Linsanity” wave. Since then he has had some down times and has switched teams a number of times, but ma- turity has brought perspective and he has been able to overcome his mental struggles, giving new inspiration to both fans and athletes. Taipei City is blessed with “one-day green living experiences,” as it is surrounded by mountains with rivers running through its heart. Just slip on your sneakers, head out your door, and in no time you’ll find yourself traversing mountain trails or riverside pathways, embracing the green life, all in the outskirts of the city! Ac- companied by the cool autumn breezes, TAIPEI invites you to go for a walk. We’ve specially mapped out three LOHAS walking routes for you: on the city’s east, visit Xiangshan, Tiger Mountain, Zhongqiang Park, and 44 South Village. On the south are Fuyang Eco Park, Qingtian Street, Taipei Wat er Pa rk ’s Water Garden Organic Farmers’ Market, and Treasure Hill. On the north, check out the Taipei Public Library Beitou Branch, Taipei Expo Farmer’s Market, Neishuangxi Nature Center, and Jiantan Moun- tain Hiking Trail. Along these green corridors, the lovely scenery of cool autumn is being ushered in. Taipei sports a comprehensive transportation network, its public bus, metro, and YouBike services offering unbeatable convenience, enabling quick and easy access to all attractions for citizens and domestic and interna- tional visitors. It’s no doubt hard to imagine that almost right next to Taipei 101 is a beautiful mountain hiking trail along which you are likely to see Taipei tree frogs, Muller’s barbets, and Formosan blue magpies; or that beside MRT Linguang Station is a dense low-altitude forest; or that just a short walk from MRT Xinbeitou Station is one of “the 25 Most Beautiful Public Libraries in the World” – the aforementioned Taipei Public Library Beitou Branch, Taiwan’s first diamond-class green building. This is a place well worth visiting. A cosmopolitan international city, Taipei boasts a splendid legion of cafes that in turn boast rich variation in individual style and personality. In this issue’s All About Cuisine section we take you on an exploration, spend- ing time in quiet old buildings transformed into cafes where the hand-brewed coffees are richly aromatic and the air brims with history. Industrial, country village, Nordic – the distinctive style of each reflects the character of the respective owners, who pour heart and soul into their enterprises, adding richness of flavor to the food and drink, as well as the lives, of their patrons. The literature and history of a city depicts the richness and depth of local life. In 2015, writer Akira Hi- gashiyama, who was born in Taipei and raised in Japan, won Japan’s prestigious Naoki Prize for his novel Ryu. Taipei is a key source of creative nutrition for him, and in this book he describes the everyday life of ordinary people. This book is filled with magical, exotic vignettes, and a flood of images depicting the Taipei landscape in a bygone era. After World War II, Taiwan-born Japanese were repatriated to Japan with their families. Many, however, looked on Taiwan as their spiritual home, and beginning not so long ago, with time slowly healing the wounds of history, former students of one school started visiting Taipei and their alma mater in regular pilgrimages. Their smiles on recalling precious old memories have become this city’s most precious memories. 07 15 CONTENTS SUMMER UNIVERSIADE FEATURE 27 North Taipei Forest Walk Route – 04 Universiade Mascot Blows Out the Stargazing Candles at Countdown Celebration Paradise Within the Urban Jungle Wishing Bravo a Happy Birthday! 07 Taking the NBA by Storm WHAT’S NEW Jeremy Lin: Believe in Yourself, and 31 Developing Taipei Into a Friendly, Easy- Dreams Can Come True to-Travel City Thoughtful Mobile Visitor Information 12 Swift and Fierce – An Athlete’s Quest Service to Show Taiwan to the World Table Tennis Great Hung-Chieh 33 Reliving Childhood Memories Chiang Eyes Universiade Gold Taiwan-Born Japanese Visit Their School of Long Ago COVER STORY 15 Three Recommended LOHAS FUN TAIPEI Itineraries 35 Malaysia: A Place of Diversity That One-Day Tours of Taipei’s Green Areas Welcomes All Sharing Its Muslim Friendly Tourism 17 East Taipei Route for Nature Hikes and Experience With Taiwan Walks – LOHAS Season Beautiful Forest Scenery Close to the 38 A Traveler’s Views – Urban Center Microscopic and Macroscopic 22 South Taipei Shaded Walks Route – 42 Delicacy Travel Notes Coexisting with Nature Old Taipei Rambles Tranquil Streets Close to Nature AUTUMN 2016 Vol. 05 46 Publisher Yu-yen Chien Editor in Chief Pei-chun Hsieh Deputy Editors in Chief Iyen Wang Editors Julia Szu-tu Davy Cheng Hsiao Wei Lee Zih-ruei Lin ALL ABOUT CUISINE Integrated Marketing Shu-Mei Chuang 46 Savoring Architecture, Listening to Yenhsin Lee Translators Cheryl Robbins Nostalgia Rick Charette Good Times With Fine Coffee in Old Artwork Designer & Production 4Point Design Co., Ltd.

    地方政府經營公營事業之研究-以苗栗縣政府為例 邱冠斌 行政管理學系 人文社會學院 [email protected] 摘要 Miaoli county government is the first local government to operate public enterprise in Taiwan. Based on the encouragement of energy policy, Miaoli Energy Enterprise is established to promote both energy efficiency and environmental safety.

This paper found that Miaoli Energy Enterprise has the following strength: 1. Many excellent employees with expertise and flexible organizational culture. 2. Sufficient fund and superior connection to government and business. 3. Good credit. 4. First company to operate CO2 emission. 5. Convenient traffic. On the other hand, Miaoli Energy Enterprise has the following weakness: 1. Attitude of State-owned enterprise reduces efficiency and hinders the response to market change. 2. High average age of employees. 3. Lack of overall research and development structure. 4. employee discoordination. In addition, this paper discovered that Miaoli Energy Enterprise has the following opportunities: 1. Reorganization through privatization. 2. Increase the sales of CO2 emission rights. 3. Expand the energy policy and diversification. 4. Consumers are more and more energy-saving oriented. 5. Product R&D brings high profits.

    Rethinking Decentralized Managerialism in the Taipei Shilin Night Market Management Research and Practice Vol

    Chiu C. mrp.ase.ro RETHINKING DECENTRALIZED MANAGERIALISM IN THE TAIPEI SHILIN NIGHT MARKET MANAGEMENT RESEARCH AND PRACTICE VOL. 6 ISSUE 3 (2014) PP: 66-87 ISSN 2067- 2462 RETHINKING DECENTRALIZED MANAGERIALISM IN THE TAIPEI SHILIN NIGHT MARKET Chihsin CHIU Department of Landscape Architecture, Fu Jen Catholic University, Taiwan [email protected] 2014 Abstract This paper develops the concept of "decentralized managerialism" to examine the municipal policies regulating the Taipei Shilin Night Market. The concept highlights the roles of managerial autonomy and political-economic structures previously overlooked by urban managerialism. The process of decentralization evolves mainly over two stages - self-management and private management. By organizing self-managed alliances, street vendors appropriated public and private property by dealing with the municipality and local community in legal and extralegal situations in ways that supported their operations. The municipality compromised vendors' self- September management by demanding that they be licensed and registered and by building a new market. The stage of / private management begins when the municipality officially permits vending in a district by requiring vendors to 3 rent storefront arcades from a community alliance made of local property owners that allocate vending units. In the name of reallocating pre-existing extralegal street vendors, the project privileges property owners‟ profits over street vendors‟ needs for space. Field research has found that most unlicensed vendors continue occupying streets even after they are provided with legitimate vending units; five retailers in the business improvement district have rejected the arcade allocation plan by mobilizing their own social network. Shoppers continue trading with vendors outside of the district.

I. Introduction When it comes to the food in Taiwan, what would people recommend? For Taiwanese people, other than big restaurant such as Din Tai Fung, they would definitely mention the food in Taiwan’s night markets. Night markets are truly the essential part in Taiwanese food culture that everyone should know. Therefore, if any foreign visitor who comes to Taiwan, he or she should never miss to go to the night markets! When approaching a night market, one can smell the fragrance of delicious food coming to the nose and sense the night market’s bustling atmosphere. At a night market, one would find crowds of people filling almost every inch of the market that it is impossible to walk freely. In Taiwan, night markets are so ubiquitous that they are often the places for people to gather together to have fun, shopping, playing games, and eating tasty snacks. People can do plenty of things in a night market, for example, kids can play games, parents can get a foot massage, and young people can go shopping. Most important of all, people are able to eat delicious Taiwanese snacks. Moreover, a night market represents an important cultural aspect of Taiwan. Night markets are mostly located at places with dense traffic and crowds where vendor could attract more customers.

    Taipei: an Example of Integrated E-Ticketing to Favour Intermodality

    XIII Retour au sommaire Taipei: an example of Integrated e-Ticketing Back to menu to favour intermodality Gérard NAJMAN Thales Transportation Systems S.A. [email protected] Abstract The Taipei City Government decided in 1999 to invest in an ambitious integrated contactless card system (EasyCard) with the political objective to provide “one card for all”, including the payment of car park in connection with the public transport network, and therefore to attract people “out of their cars”. The EasyCard is a stored value card enabling its holder to travel all over the Public Transport network: each operator deducts the appropriate fare to be paid in relation with relevant transfer rules to encourage the use of public transport. The system now includes the 6 metro lines, 5 000 buses operated by 15 companies, 92 city owned parking lots and 3,000 on street parking spaces. EasyCard has been successful: there are now 13 million cards in circulation for a population of 6.4 million inhabitants. The benefits of EasyCard concern the passengers, as well as the Taipei City Government and the Public Transport Operators. La municipalité de Taipei a décidé en 1999 d’investir dans un ambitieux système billettique (EasyCard) dans l’objectif politique de promouvoir “une carte unique”, incluant le paiement de parking de liaison avec les transports publics, et ainsi d’extirper les habitants de leur voiture. L’EasyCard est une carte dotée d’une réserve d’argent permettant à son porteur de voyager sur l’intégralité du réseau de transport : chaque exploitant débite le tarif approprié en fonction des règles applicables en matière de correspondance intermodale, afin de favoriser l’usage des transports publics.
