    International Journal of Hospitality Management 29 (2010) 99–107 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect International Journal of Hospitality Management journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/ijhosman A stochastic cost efficiency analysis of international tourist hotels in Taiwan Jin-Li Hu a,*, Chia-Ning Chiu a, Hwai-Shuh Shieh b, Chia-Hui Huang a a Institute of Business and Management, National Chiao Tung University, 118, Chung-Hsiao W. Rd., Sec. 1, Taipei City 100, Taiwan b Department of Management Science, National Chiao Tung University, Taiwan ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: The one-stage stochastic frontier approach (SFA) is used in this study to simultaneously estimate cost International tourist hotel efficiency scores and factors of cost inefficiency for 66 international tourist hotels in Taiwan during Cost efficiency 1997–2006. An SFA model with three outputs and three inputs is defined. The three outputs are room Stochastic frontier revenue, food and beverage revenue, and other operation revenue while the three inputs are price of Panel data labor, price of other operation, and price of food and beverage. This model also takes into account five Time-varying efficiency environmental variables, including dummy variable of the hotels located in non-metropolitan area, dummy variable of chain hotels, the number of tourist guides, the minimum distance from each hotel to Taoyuan international airport and the minimum distance from each hotel to Kaohsiung international airport. Empirical results show that international tourist hotels in Taiwan are on average operating at 91.15% cost efficiency. All nominal variables are transformed into real variables in 1997 prices by GDP deflators. Chain systems, tourist guides, and international transportation can significantly improve the cost efficiency of international tourist hotels in Taiwan.

  • Memorial Park for Women Laborers”: Gender, Religion, and the Politics of Memory in Taiwan’S Urban Renewal
    Journal of Archaeology and Anthropology‧75:37-70‧2011 From the “Twenty-five Ladies’ Tomb” to a “Memorial Park for Women Laborers”: Gender, Religion, and the Politics of Memory in Taiwan’s Urban Renewal Anru Lee∗ and Wen-hui Anna Tang** ABSTRACT This essay looks at the recent renovation of the Twenty-five Ladies’ Tomb, and examines the politics of the feminist movements and the politics of memory as they are expressed through different meanings of female ghosts, in southern Taiwan. People who were involved in the renovation process included the families of the deceased “twenty-five maidens,” the Kaohsiung city government, and feminist groups in Kaohsiung and elsewhere in Taiwan – most notably the Kaohsiung Association for the Promotion of Women’s Rights – all of whom had different considerations and therefore diverse expectations regarding the future and purpose of the tomb. In Specters of Marx (2006), Derrida uses the idea of “specters” and “haunting” as consequences of historical injustice and tragedy metaphorically but powerfully. These two elements come together in our essay as well. However, the “ghosts” in our accounts are more literally ghosts with whom some (if not all) of our ethnographic subjects interact. They appear, express their sorrow, and demonstrate their grievances. The reestablishment of peace and order essential to residents of both the living world and the afterlife thus hinges upon mutual understanding and close collaboration between them. Yet, as meanings are constantly contested, so is the nature of the deceased’s requests. The different interpretations that the (living) socio-political forces give to the deceased’s needs open up new terrains of contestation for the memory of the past and the rights and obligations at the present.
