Cultural Tour to Taitung and Hualien
The East Coast region of Taiwan, unlike the highly industrialized West Coast region, remains largely an unspoiled land with vast natural beauty. The Hualien and Taitung regions have the rich heritage of the aboriginal tribes who have resided there for centuries; however, it is realized that most of the social issues besieging the aboriginal families could be attributed to the fact that the local tribal economy is still mainly driven by agricultural activities that really cannot provide enough jobs and adequate income for an average family.
During this trip, the guests will have the opportunity to learn firsthand some of the cultural and redevelopment projects that the Alliance Cultural Foundation has been working with the local communities through site visits and sharing with guest speakers, for e.g. Mr Stanley Yen and Ms Hsu Lu (CEO of the Lovely Taiwan) etc.
Date: 30 October - 2 November 2015
