Taoyuan’s Lanpu Villagers fight to oppose piggery

Over the past decade, Taoyuan County Government (桃園縣府) has continually encouraged the development of the local ‘Lotus Leisure Industry’ in Guanyin Township, and at present there is growing interest in ‘Agritourism’. After laying such a stable foundation for development, no one expected Taoyuan County Government to pass plans that would allow the building of a piggery at the very heart of the area’s ‘Lotus Leisure Industry’. The CJ calls into question such contradictory policies that clearly disregard the safety of people's lives and property. In light of the aforementioned policies, Taoyuan County Commissioner John Wu’s (吳志揚縣長) use of the county slogan ‘Love and Harmony,’ has become his greatest work of satire to date.

十幾年來，桃園縣府不斷鼓勵觀音鄉發展【蓮花休閒產業】，現在也興起了不少【觀光休閒農場】，奠定了穩定的發展基礎，沒想到這時候桃園縣政府竟要准許【養豬場】進入蓮花產業核心區，公民記者質疑這種不顧民眾生命財產安全的矛盾政策，是標榜【愛與祥和】社會吳志揚縣長的最大諷刺。
