CHANGHUA, TAIWAN (TraNews) – Led by the legendary “Flying antelope” Chi Cheng, “Welcome the 100th Year of the Republic – Thousand-step Formosa Tour” advocacy group arrived Changhua County on July 28th, 2010. “Pedestrian-friendly City”, “New Year’s Day Trekking Tour” and “Characteristic Streets” are three major initiatives proposed by Ms. Chi in order to welcome the upcoming 100th year of the republic. Next year will mark the 100th year since the nation was established.
The proposal for “New Year’s Day Trekking Tour” is to hope that 25 counties and cities would launch a trekking event on the first of Year 2011. The notion of “Characteristic Streets” is to hope that each and every county and city would have a complete description of all the streets by the end of Year 2012, including their historical background and characteristics. The concept of “Pedestrian-friendly City” is to completely subvert the general public’s impression of Taiwan’s traffic by the end of Year 2013. (Photo provided by Changhua County Government)
