PAPER FORMAT for the INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM On Effectiveness of Reconstruction and Migration of Residents Following Typhoon Morakot -Examining Kaohsiung City’s Shanlin Da Ai Community , Xiaolin Village , and Maya Village Cheng-I Wang* , Kai-Ling Chen* ,Chu-Chi Huang*, Shu-Hung Cheng* Kaohsiung City Government Typhoon Morakot Post-Disaster Reconstruction Council * ABSTRACT: Kaohsiung City was the region of Taiwan most severely affected in the aftermath of Typhoon Morakot, with the greatest number of victims. The most important issue the government must face is how to efficiently rebuild residences in the disaster area. The government must also care for the psychological adjustment, social organization, employment development, and cultural continuity of the residents after they are moved to safe regions. A home reconstruction model was created for the special reconstruction conditions after Typhoon Morakot: The government acquires land and builds and maintains public facilities, while allowing non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to build permanent residences through private donations. These permanent residences, restricted by the principle of partial property disposition, are donated to the residents of the disaster zone free of charge. This study uses interviews with residents and policy cross-analysis to investigate three migration models within Kaohsiung City: those of Shanlin Da Ai Community, Xiaolin Village, and Maya Village. The distribution of labor and models for cooperation between the local government, private NGOs, and resident reconstruction organizations are described from the dimensions of residential resettlement, community development, and cultural preservation. In addition, we examine the effectiveness of the implementation of permanent housing policies and the new problems resulting from them, along with the feedback, opinions, and reactions of residents toward the permanent housing rebuilding models. Analyzing the strategies revealed that: (1) The concentrated permanent housing construction model for multiethnic groups in a new location, Da Ai Village in the Shanlin District, has great potential for community development. Although the overall cost was the highest yet, the reconstruction project provided an opportunity for creating new industry types and employment opportunities. However, concerns about the different standards of living of various ethnicities persist, which could lead to difficulties in inhabitant consensus and a hindrance to community development. (2) Single ethnic group, dispersed permanent housing construction model, Xiaolin Village; the relocation site was decided by respecting the autonomous wishes of the inhabitants. There was the highest level of inhabitant satisfaction and a high level of consensus for the inhabitants of the community. However, relocation was spread over three sites, and the community naturally developed into three organizations with distinct focuses on development. The government’s continued promotion is still necessary to conserve the Xiaolin traditional Pingpu culture. (3) The overall cost of individual reconstruction at the original location model, the Maya Platform, was the lowest; but inhabitants have acclimatized more successfully and demonstrate high individuality with the housing. KEYWORDS: Post-disaster reconstruction , Permanent housing , Residents migration , Da Ai Community, Xiaolin Village 1. INTRODUCTION was most affected by Typhoon Morakot. The After the Typhoon Morakot disaster, 14 cities major transport routes to and from the and counties throughout Taiwan were affected aboriginal areas were severely damaged.

Two years and 8 geological conditions of the inhabited areas months after the Morakot disaster, residents that proved problematic to stabilize within a of the Namasia and Taoyuan areas still relied short period. For the government, the most on embankment sidewalks that traverse the emergent problem that had to be resolved was riverbed for basic access. Because of unstable how to complete housing reconstruction with transport routes, the aboriginal areas were utmost efficiency for the inhabitants of the considerably isolated. A substantial amount of disaster-stricken areas. Other factors, such as sand and stone accumulated on the riverbed psychological adjustment, community from major alluvial that has raised the organization, employment development, and riverbed by 30 to 40 meters. However, because cultural continuation of the inhabitants, also of the considerable transportation distance had to be considered after relocating the and the high cost of clearing, the raised inhabitants to a safe area. riverbed has remained and currently poses a threat to the safety of aboriginal area The special regulations of the Morakot residents.

Figures released by Global Insight Inc. indicate that global economic performance nevertheless remained stable during the year, with the rate of economic growth reaching 3.8%--only marginally lower than the 3.9% recorded in 2006. Following its outbreak last August, the negative influence of the subprime housing loan crisis in the U.S. spread rapidly throughout the world and, despite the threat of inflation, the U.S. Federal Reserve lowered interest rates three times before the end of 2007, bringing the federal funds rate down from 5.25% to 4.25%, in an attempt to avoid a slowdown in economic growth and alleviate the credit crunch.

  • Nomination in the 2008 Legislative Election
    Adapting to the new electoral system: Taiwanese political parties’ legislative candidate selection in 2008 in comparative perspective. Dafydd Fell: School of Oriental and African Studies, Lecturer in Taiwan Studies, Centre for Financial and Management Studies and Department of Political and International Studies. [email protected] Paper presented at the Fifth European Association of Taiwan Studies Conference, Charles University, Prague April 2008. Draft Paper: Please do not cite without author’s permission Abstract As a result of Taiwan’s constitutional reforms of 2005, the single non transferable vote in multi-member district electoral system that had been used for over five decades was replaced by a single member district two vote system. In addition, the number of legislators was halved from 225 to only 113. In January 2008 Taiwan conducted its first election under the new system. Political analysts place significant emphasis on the mechanical effects of electoral systems on political behaviour, arguing that a single member district system promotes centrist parties and the development of a two party system. In this study, the critical political process of candidate selection under the new electoral system is examined. First, the degree of inner party democracy in candidate nomination for 2008 is compared with previous elections. Second, the parties’ satisfaction with their current nomination practices is discussed, using an elite survey and newspaper data. Thirdly, the actual consequences of the parties’ 2008 legislative 1 nomination procedures are examined. In other words, I seek to show whether the recent primaries have had an impact on electoral success, prevalence of rebel or allied party candidates, the party system and on the socio-demographic background of parties’ nominated candidates.

Received: 31 January 2020; Accepted: 14 March 2020; Published: 17 March 2020 Abstract: Water resources are a very important issue in the Global Risk 2015 published by the World Economic Forum. The research objective of this study was to construct a Water Poverty Index (WPI) for islands. The empirical scope of this study was based on Kinmen Island in the Taiwan Strait, which has very scarce water resources. Kinmen has a dry climate with low rainfall and high evaporation. Therefore, the Kinmen area is long-term dependent on groundwater resources and faces serious water resource problems. This study used the WPI to examine various issues related to water resources. In addition, this study selected several main indicators and performed time series calculations to examine the future trends of water resources in Kinmen. The results show that the overall water resources of Kinmen are scarce. To ensure sustainable development of water resources in Kinmen, policies to improve water scarcity, such as water resource development, water storage improvement, and groundwater control, should be researched.
