My Ambition:
Under the efforts of all the mayors and civil servants for the past years, we have built a very good living environment. However, we should try to do better in the future. In the next four years, we will do our best to put all of the civil facilities into practice. We have faith in leading all of the civil servants to accomplish this mission.
Here’s the enforcement of all the important city establishments in my service period:

1. Realization of the service of “getting close to the residents”:
   To expand our service, “getting close to the residents” has been put into effect.

   Its main purpose is to solve problems and listen to local people’s opinions for the

   city government’s reformation and demand. This service seeks to help people.
2. Volunteer service plan
      Volunteer service is a guide for the city improvement based on the love for the

      locals. In order to effectively use the social labor source, enhance service quality

      and increase people’s opportunity of participating in social services, we

      especially plan a“Volunteer Service Plan” to muster volunteer people.
3. Hiring city counselors and providing expert counseling
     To strengthen political quality, we hire experts and richly experienced politicians

     to be our city counselors who will provide expert counseling, hoping to make our

     city establishment perfect through the counselors’ expert advice.
4. Enhancement for living quality
     We encourage residential union to keep life safe and disciplined. We aim to

     eliminate the selfish attitudes, wishing to retain the traditional values of our

    country.
5. Humanity disposition re-enhancement
    City government preserves local culture and history with rich information of local

     culture and history for enthusiastic local people to have an important reference, 

     encouraging other groups to participate in collecting local culture and history.

     We will build up a tribal related environment, developing tribal cultural business,

      aboriginal language restoration, children’s education, medical caring system,

      tribal environment and improvement of synchronized demands.
7. New Look of environmental cleanliness
     We will improve the sewage, put the pipes underground, and integrate road repair

     engineering.
8. Setting up a source network of city and town
    The service quality of transportation is closely related to the city tourism. A good

    transportation system is helpful to enhance the willingness of traveling to our city.

  ‘Taitung Living Circle’ is due to finish in the early May.
9. Welfare policy realization
   We will take care of minorities, enhance emergency service quality, visit and help

    high-risk families, do elderly nursery business, and cooperate with private social

   welfare groups.
10. Ingenuous and uncorrupt government
   To enhance political quality and organization effectiveness, we will irregularly open

   courses for instilling good service attitude and a customer-oriented working policy

   to set a base for a long-term city establishment.
11. Development of City Diplomacy
   We hope to open up the city’s international visibility through city diplomacy.
12. Leisure farming
   A griculture must evolve according to the trend .So we will make it merchandize to

   enhance its additional valve and improve its competitiveness, breaking through the

   present obstacles and open a new leaf for Taiwan’s agriculture.
