Full textIssue of immigration was for a long time controversial concern throughout the Europe. Because of its demand for labor, Europe needs certain level of qualified immigration. However, in late decades a big amount of refugee immigration flow created serious challenges as well. Perceived ‘threat’ of immigration resulted in restrictive policies at both national and EU level. EU level policies in this respect are very interesting to research on. Because of great sensitivity of immigration issues to state sovereignty, formulation of EU level policy also faces challenges in terms of balancing intergovernmentalist and supranationalist logic of integration. Therefore, we have studied those policy and decision-making processes in immigration policy focusing on two issues: first, the motives behind the cooperation at EU level and the role of supranational institutions in shaping these EU level policies, second, the scope and capabilities of those policies.
Immigrant integration policy have been chosen as a case to comprehend issue more closely and detailed. Immigrant integration policy is very important for the social cohesion of European societies and is inseparable part of immigration policies. Immigrant integration debate is very new in EU agenda; it is just getting its way to Brussels. Although EU has no competence on this issue, we found out that there are quite real opportunities for EU to have its own way of helping with member states’ policies. The paper identifies and discusses important aspects of immigration and immigrant integration policies at EU level, the reasons why EU level policies are not pro-active and not suprantionalised yet. It further explores the available EU level instruments and sources for constructing strategy of integrating immigrants. All these study is done in the light of theoretical framework which is the combination of several theories, due to the complexity of the immigration matters. Every theory explains either some stage in the development of EU level policies (liberal intergovernmentalism and new institutionalism) or the possible EU level policy-making framework (intensive transgovernmentalism and policy coordination/benchmarking) for the studied issues.

Full textSyftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka en komponents optimala utbyts" tid med hänsyn till kostnad och risk, och föreslå schemalagda underhåll, med hjälp av statistiska metoder. Genom att använda statistiska verktyg och historiska data, kan en komponents samt systemets brister predikteras. När forskaren vet hur ett system beter sig, kan dess fördelar exploateras och tas till vara på. Schemaläggning av förebyggande service, kostnads prognoser samt uppskattning av förlängda garantier är möjliga fördelar som kan nyttjas av denna rapport. Detta medför en högre tillgänglighet och förbättrat rykte hos kund. Tillförlitligthet teori är en viktigt del av Total Quality Management, TQM, som säkerhetsställer kvalité. I denna uppsats jämförs, förklaras och verifieras 2 kända ARP, och strategin att ersätta endast då komponenten går sönder i en fallstudie. Denna uppsats indikerar att en ARP med ändlig horisont ger mer optimalta resultat än en ARP med oändlig horisont eller då ingen utbytespolicy används. Barlow \& Proschan visade detta redan 1962. I denna uppsats påvisas att ARP-teorier kan minska omkostnader och stilleståndstid samt öka tillgängligheten.
The purpose of this thesis is to examine when a part's optimal replacement time occurs in terms of risk and cost, and provide maintenance plans accordingly using statistical methods. With the use of statistical tools and historical data, the failures of components as well as the system can be predicted. Once the researcher knows how the system behaves, he/she can reveal the gains that can be made. Scheduling of preventive maintenance, improved warranty cost forecasts and estimation of lengthened warranty costs are plausible benefits from this report. This will further result in higher availability and improved reputation among clients. Reliability theory is an important part of Total Quality Management (TQM), ensuring good quality. This thesis will compare the differences between two known age replacement policies (ARP), and with the strategy of replacing only on failures in a real case-study. This thesis indicates that an ARP with finite horizon yields a more optimal solution than an ARP with infinite horizon as well as using no replacement policy at all. Barlow & Proschan established this as far back as 1962. With the aid of ARP theories it has been shown in this thesis that lowering costs is possible and in the progress lower downtime which increases availability.

In order to ensure the economic survival of the unemployed labor during the period of unemployement, the Taiwanese government implemented the unemployment benefit system of the labor insurance in 1999, which was then changed into the unemployment benefit system of the employment insurance in 2003, with not only the fundamental function of “ensurring the economic sruvival during the period of unemployment” but also the active fucntion of “reemployment assistance for the unemployed”, in hopes of helping the unemployed labor to find another job as soon as possible. However, though the unemployment benefit policy has been implemented for over a decade, the effect of facilitating employment is still not as good as expected. The goal set for this policy hasn’t been achieved. For this reason, this study aimed to explore the current status of the unemployment benefit policies of public employment service institutions and apply the policy implementability model to analyze the obstacles and problems encountered during the process of implementing the unemployment benefit policies and which factors would influence the achievement of the goal of “facilitating the reemployment of the unemployed”. In addition, by interviewing the policy implementers, this study tried to explore their views and opinions on the unemployment benefit policies based on their field experiences, in order to propose suggestions for the policy. With the policy implementability model proposed by George C. Edwards III as the structure, this study performed further analyses and found the followings: In the aspect of “communication”, the policies were handed down to the enforcement units which had different ways to implement the policies. In the aspect of “resources”, there were issues including insufficient enforcement manpower and authority and information equipment which needed to be upgraded. In the aspect of “implementers’ intention”, the implementers had correct knowledge regarding the unemployment benefit policies and supported these policies. However, people did not have correct knowledge regarding the policies. As a result, the effect of facilitating employment was influenced. Moreover, there were problems caused by the implementation of the “Operation Directions for Unemployment Identification for the Employment Insurance” and the conflicts and contradictions of the implementers in practices due to the design of the current system, which were also the difficulties for the current policies. In the aspect of “institution structure”, the implementers mostly agreed with the SOP of “one case by one steward”. However, there were disadvantages such as inflexibility of service time and inconvenience for the people. In addition, because of the responsibility dispersion, it was difficult for business coordination, thus influencing the effect of policy implementation. Lastly, based on the research findings, this study proposed some policy suggestions, including building a good channel or mechanism for communication, strengthening implementation resources, promoting correct concetps of unemployment benefit, revising the Operation Directions for Unemployment Identification for the Employment Insurance, reconsidering whether unemployment benefit and employement services should be combined or separated, imroving the service process of “one case by one steward”, and review the insurance benefit system.

Living the passion of football for more than twenty years and being interested and involved in football association organizational field, then studying the Fédération Internationale de Football Association and its members was an obvious choice. I have been curious about the fact that FIFA gets more members than the United Nations since I was a junior high school student. This research is made with the aim to discover the reason why FIFA members are more than UN members, and more specifically what decisions the International Football Association Federation made to allow itself to gather more members than the United Nations. Both FIFA and UN met their biggest growth during the 20th century and the decolonization of most of former European colonies worldwide. Did FIFA played kind of a precursor role and accepted colonies as members before their independence and before they became members of the United Nations? Are the members FIFA has but not UN are all non-independent countries? Are they going to be soon independent? It is with a descriptive approach that will be analyzed documents concerning the history of the territory and the football association of the members FIFA gets but not the United Nations. Strongly supposing that the FIFA rules are the key to solve this problem, FIFA Statutes which were published every year will be analyzed also. The result of these analysis shows that FIFA gathers more members than the UN because of its membership policy that allowed colonies or non-independent territories which cannot be represented in the United Nations to become FIFA members. Surveying the FIFA members which are not UN members does not really show any correlation about the fact that FIFA would be a precursor by granting membership to territories which would become independent in a near future.

Under the democratic system and free economic development, we come to this world that is full with all kinds of information and with people that have great intelligence and acknowledgement. Masses of people have higher and higher expectations from policemen. Also police monitoring is becoming austere. For people to know what the police would do everyday and what their available services are, it is necessary to propagandize and interact with people in a positive way. This development of public relations is a very important issue. This study is based on the current public relations policy of the Taichung County Policy Department. We tried to look into the current policy to see its good and bad sides, then to see if it’s possible to increase people’s satisfaction level with the police, or to strengthen the development of public relations. We used the three branches of Fong-Yuan, Ching-Shui, and Wu-Fong as examples. We analyzed the secondary levels of information to understand how these branches practice their public relations and how satisfied the majority of people feel. Through the interviews of basic policemen, cadres, councilors, and news media, we discovered how well public relations have been pursued inside these police departments. In the research, we found that it is not easy for police departments to develop and push for public relations and some reasons why public relations have not been developed well. These reasons include but are not limited to, how well policemen would support this idea, policemen’s working attitude, the lack of cohesion between coworkers, the current merit system for professional performance and the heavy workloads that our police departments have to handle. Most people do not want much to do with policemen, because they do not want to get involved with police work which includes clampdowns and catching criminals. It is this very reason that has caused most people to reject and have a negative impression of policemen, thereby blocking the development of good public relations between citizens and policemen. Based on all the problems mentioned above, this research used published articles, secondary information analysis and deep lengthily interviews to find out all efficient strategies, of how to communicate and know policemen’s feelings, of how to make officers and subordinates feel closer, of how to do a good job in their positions, of how to build up the inner spirit, of how to train policemen to be honorable in their team work, and of how to do their best to complete their assignments, in order to establish the highest quality police team. Based on these cohesive ideas, to expand public relations, and to build up good relationships with all citizens; we want to serve the people, we want to try to find out what most people are thinking, we want to build the idea that policemen are public servants, and we want to increase the quality of service. We policemen offer no excuses. We do not heckle citizens. We try to put our feet in people’s shoes and think as they do. We do our best to respect people’s feelings and reactions. We do our best to be close to people and care about them. We show our best face to our citizens. We apply marketing promotion to leave citizens with the best image of policemen in their minds, so that a new and wonderful image of policemen will emerge and that in the end policemen will win society’s and people’s trust.

For a quite long time, the writer strongly argues that victims who suffer a lot cannot be protected very well in dealing with some unit cases involving in practical affairs, especially in the aspects of informing the victims and provide them with relevant assistance. Due to some big cases happening in the society recently, the low position where victims are placing start attract the sympathy of the public. In fact, the laws enacted for protecting the interests of victims has clearly regulated the detailed articles which demonstrate what compensation those victims should after the ending of the cases but ignore how the assistance procedure needs to be implemented. As a matter of fact, it’s policemen that firstly arrive at the site where criminal cases happen, thus there are more than one thing for them to do. According to plenty of cases, we can know more about the requirements and problems of victims’ families and then we can support them with different solutions to make victims feel warm atmosphere, which is indeed a behavior of humanity to show the title of People’s Babysitter we deserve. This research interviews the victim's mother in the way of the individual interviews from the perspective of the family member to present the current situation of the case and further know more about the real needs and the problems they have faced and come up with the solution to make major improvements. The interviews in this study found that the police did not have sufficient policies for the protection of victims especially in response to the "criminal site processing", "dealing phase processing", and "treatment phase after the investigation." According to the interviews mentioned above, we can further summarize the measures carried on in dealing with criminal cases by the policemen in Japan, England, America, Canada and Australia and discuss together the disadvantages existing in the laws which should be get rid of in the near future and put forward the improvements in relevant procedures with which policemen assist victims in current situation as well as look forward to the innovation of policies and systems which have exist too long. The research reckons that there should be personnel exclusively responsible for informing accompany on the site, information and relevant procedure as well as integrating helping media on duty over all sorts of administrative information so that the second suffer can be prevented at the best. Last but not least, research proposals not only need to mention how to improve the procedures for handling those policemen, but also mentions the establishment of specialized laws and conceptions of policemen in the basic level as well as the cooperation with non-governmental units.

Public policy is a research approach to analyze governmental activities by discussing public issues. However, in most articles, the policy process is seen as a logical succession of steps: agenda setting, policy formulation, policy legitimation, policy implementation, policy evaluation, and policy termination. Although this progression of stages provides a clear and useful framework, it often obscures the complexities of public issues. In other words, most policies are not a process of linear development, from agenda setting to policy termination. Policy change is a common phenomenon. In this way, if we want to understand the dynamics of policy, it is helpful to take a nonlinear perspective. Policy change is used by a wide range of authors in public policy and other disciplines, but there is no consensus on what the definition of policy change is. In fact, this question has not been systematically explored until now. Policy change is not simply a label, but is an important part of the policy process. It is worth drawing more attention to this phenomenon. The aim of this study is to construct an analytical framework of policy change. Within this framework, we distinguish between different types of policy change: policy succession and policy termination, firstly. And we can find some cues from policy change, including organization, statutes, budget, personnel, and media. Secondly, we use the concept of policy system to connect with policy change. This concept contains several elements: external environment, policy attributes, institutional factor, and policy networks. These elements interact with each other to produce policy change. We use this framework to analyze policy discontinuity for the fourth nuclear power plant in 2000. Finally, policy is essentially about government. The major activity of government is seen as choosing goals and instruments to solve social problems. Policy does not exist in a vacuum; it is made in a concrete environment. We should see policy as a continuing process of social action and interaction. This is why policy may be changed before it is terminated. Finally, we provide some hypotheses and suggestions for further research at the end of this study.

As regard the great damage caused by drunk-driving, Taichung City Government has not only declared the policy of “zero-tolerance” toward the act, but also announce the city is about to be “the hell of the people who drunk driving”. Taichung City Government Police Department put the drunk drivers the major targets to be cracked down on with the amendment of relevant traffic regulations. The implement of regional blockade with police spot checking at the certain hot spots of drunk-driving was also put into practice. However, the effect of the above-mentioned enforcement strategies and implement by the authority still lack the in-depth evaluation. This research contains the literature review of international and domestic academic papers with the topic of drunk-driving, additionally with the analysis of the current situation of law enforcement against drunk-driving and the relevant violation/accident cases. In this study, the qualitative method was adopted to analyze the secondary data from government’s archives, combining with the in-depth interviews to the police officers from Taichung City Police Department (including the officials in headquarter, precincts, and the ones in local police stations), for the purpose of obtaining the complete result of the study concerning the effectiveness of prevention and law enforcement against drunk-driving. After examining the current problem and possible flaws of the enforcement with the understanding of patterns and the background of drunk driving, this study tries to elaborate appropriate prevention and control measures in the scopes of enforcement, education, and law, hoping to provide the authority with the reference and suggestion on the duty of the enforcement of drunk-driving law/regulations. In addition, because of the lack of objective measures with performance evaluation on the enforcement of drunk-driving law/regulations, this study utilizes the number of enforcement to become the standard of assessment, which includes: traffic safety (the case number of drunk-driving, or the death, injury toll caused by the drunk driving), and enforcement outcomes (the number of tickets issued for the case of drunk-driving, and the number of the case successfully submitted to the criminal justice system).

In the past, the studies of convertible bond (CB) in Taiwan were mainly about its valuation, the issuing firms'''' incentive, and the signaling effect on the issuance of the convertible bond. This research focuses on the issuing firms'''' call policy, the bondholders'''' conversion policy and the reasons behind the voluntary conversion. There are 90 convertible bonds that were issued between 1990-1998 included in the research. The research period ranged from 1990 to 1999. The results are as follows: (1) Among the 90 convertible bonds, when they corresponded to the call provision, 90% of them were not called or enforced to convert into common stocks. The reasons behind the phenomenon are listed below: a.The issuing firms took the issuance of the CBs as the indirect equity financing. b.If the issuing firms call the CBs back immediately, and then the investors will no longer get so much earnings as holding the CBs continuously. Finally, the investors will be unwilling to buy the CBs .It will be more difficult for the firms to raise capital through the CBs. (2) Theoretically speaking, bondholders should convert their CB into the common stocks when the stock price is higher than the conversion price. In practice, 58 of total 90 CBs are converted under the circumstance that the stock price is lower than the conversion price. (3) Investors also should make voluntary conversion when the dividend is much more than the CB''''s coupon. There are only 6 CBs converted into common stocks under both of the optimal conversion policies. The investors won''''t make the relationship between the dividend and the CB''''s coupon into consideration because of the seldom distribution of cash dividend in Taiwan. (4) Although 80 percent of the institutional investors'''' dividend are tax-deductible, they make conversion when the dividend is less than the CB''''s coupon. (5) If the investors in majority convert their CBs into common stocks when the stock price is higher than the conversion price, it means that what they care is the firms'''' growth potential. If the firms have good prospect, they will get more profit and raise the stock price up in the future. Then the investors'''' conversion really makes themselves earn more cash flow.If the investors mainly convert their CBs into common stocks when the stock price is lower than the conversion price, they just want to get more shares in order to control the firms rather than making profit. (6) When the market value of CBs is higher than the conversion value, there are still 40 of them to be converted, but not to be sold. The reason that investors are more willing to convert it into stocks than to sell them out is the lack of market efficiency of CB, because the trading volume of CBs are much more slim than that of the common stock. What the investors care is whether the firms'''' growth will make the stock price higher than the conversion price. The issuing firms have to keep growing to raise stock price up and to motivate the investors'''' voluntary conversion. Finally, the firms will attain their goal that they want to get the equity capital indirectly through the issuance of CBs.

Belgium, located within the central part of west Europe, always becomes a target and suffers from aggression because of its geographical site and historical factor. The Belgian foreign policy in post war era has changed from neutrality to alliance and had a positive attitude to international organizations. It is the most essential foreign policy for Belgium to participate and work in European Union (EU). Belgium emerges influence of small states by means of stage of EU, for example it be a coordinator between international system and own power in decision-making procedures. This thesis adopted theories of small states foreign policy to discuss the act of Belgian foreign policy toward EU, employed orientations, roles and objectives of foreign policy as analytical framework, and used level analysis. We attempt to realize why EU is the most essential foreign policy for Belgium and how does Belgium use EU to display Foreign policy and protect its interest of small states in the international system.

To practice the strategy of energy conservation and carbon emissions reduction, nurture economics and industry, government has promoted electric scooter policy since 2009. In the four years during 2009 to 2012, the quantity of electric scooter in Taiwan is merely 18,717. The gap from the 160,000 target is large. To understand the policy promotion and whether the promotion policy brings benefit, this study use In-depth interview and questionnaire to investigate the opinions/ suggestions from the policy facilitation government, the person in the electric scooter, also the electric scooter users. In addition, this study applies the cost-benefit analysis between electric scooter users and government to validate whether government subsidy allowance of electric scooter policy reduces the air pollution and reduces resource consumption. Government could evaluate electric scooter promotion befit based on the cost analysis result to decide whether to extend the promotion policy. This study found the electric scooter is still under embryonic period. Both chargers environment and the electric scooter performance need to improve via government supporting to increase business scope and lower vendor production cost, also enhance population confidence. Additionally, government subsidy allowance makes profit from policy cost; by keep doing so, government could reach electric scooter policy and benefit.

號碼可攜性服務政策之研究 Abstract The communication technology has advanced in an unprecedented speed. As the result, there are more and more new telecommunication services available to the general public. The number portability (NP) is one of the latest new services that will be put in the market in a near future. To promote a fair competitive environment, the liberalization of the telecommunication industry becomes an inevitable trend of the world. Taiwan government is as well in the process of the implementation a multiple-phase of telecommunication liberalization policy. The first phase is to liberalize the fixed communication service. However, the main goal is eventually to liberalize the NP service. Proving NP service has just begun recently in a few countries. Not until in 1995, Hong Kong becomes the first country in the world to liberalize the NP service as well as fixed communication service. In this research, we study the purpose of and the policy, legislature, costing, pricing, and management issues in the implementation of the liberalization of the NP service in several developed countries. They are America, England, Germany, Australia, Finland, and Hong Kong. The study shows one of the main purposes is to provide an equal competitive environment for telecommunication providers. 號碼可攜性服務政策之研究 On July 1st, 2000, during a review meeting of liberalization of fixed communication, The Department of Transportation and Communication in Taiwan has decided and announced the timetable for liberalization of NP service. The timetable is also incorporated as an article in the revised draft of the legislature of the fixed communication service management. Our research recommends that the first new carrier granted the license for the fixed communication service, who must provide scattering database, a capability to obtain user personal data on an IN network platform, and user information when switching carriers. We also recommend the delay the schedule of NP liberalization implementation, since its implementation requires a complete digitized cellular network in Taiwan. The network can not be completed by the Chung Hwa Telecom Cooperation until the company''s AMPS system is fully replaced. It, however, is scheduled at the end of June of 2002.

IPSec/VPN management is a complicated challenge, since IPSec functions correctly only if its security policies satisfy all administrated requirements. Computer-generated security policies tend to conflict with each other, which would causes network congestion or creates security vulnerability. Thus conflict resolving has become an issue. In this thesis, a method to automatically generate policies is proposed. Instead of performing complicated conflict-checking procedures as most existing works do, the proposed Zero-Conflict algorithm is able to predict and avoid conflict in advance by using requirement groups and cut points techniques. Since policies are established without the need to perform backward conflict check, thus yielding a significantly less time-complexity, which is O(nlogn). Experimental results show that it maintains a satisfactorily minimal numbers of generated tunnels.

The human beings use fossil energy in order to meet the demand of economic development. In spite of promoting living level, it also generate negative impacts on natural environment. As global climate change has caught international society attention, greenhouse gases emission reduction becomes international public issues. In order to cope with that, the First National Energy Conference was held in our country. With regards to policy reserch, it would utilize policy instrument to make optimum policy effect after identifing policy problems and policy objectives. As for this, the purpose of this study is to find no regret strategies for mitigating CO2 emission. This study classifies energy policy instruments into two types of economic incentives tools and regulation tools. The incentives tools includes imposing energy taxes, carbon taxes, emission trading scheme and subsidies. The regulation tools are consisted of related energy laws, rules, and consumption standards. By the application of AHP, the model of reducing our country CO2 emission can be clearly constructed. Then it will help the policy maker to understand the problem structure and properly choose alternatives at limited time. Based on the the empirical research, we find that the proper strategy of our country CO2 emission reductionis to adjust the industries structure, and the alternative is to promote energy laws and rules implement. In view of this, the important measures are bound to strengthen the monitoring of the policy implement and revise the energy laws and energy reservation standards。

Based on the Draft of Refugee Act which is deliberated by the Legislative Yuan, the political refugees whom may be granted asylum by the government of the Republic of China are in accordance with the “refugees” defined in the “Refugees Convention” (the Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees and the Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees). In addition, to prevent from having the meaning of “cross national boundary” which is part of the definition of political refugees, the government may permit specifically on a case-by-case basis any of the people living in Mainland Area, Hong Kong or Macau to have a residency or permanent residency in Taiwan out of political consideration by the Act Governing Relations between the People of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area or the Laws and Regulations Regarding Hong Kong & Macao Affairs. In order to propose some constructive suggestions for our country to build the asylum system, this research generalized the disputes in international society through reviewing the changes of contemporary refugee protection regime, and compared with the asylum systems among six contracting parties—Germany, South Korea, British, Canada, United States of America, and Japan—whose asylum laws have been referenced by the National Immigration Agency and the Legislative Yuan. The findings show that the immigration flows caused by the globalization after the end of Cold War is the most important reason for the current refugee problems. Unfortunately, because the international refugee protection regime is still lacking of supranational power, neither the UNHCR’s “durable solutions” are not implemented well at all, nor many of countries do not respect the principle of “non-refoulement” often. Moreover, all of the six contracting parties grant the humanitarian protection to the person whom is not recognized as refugee but still confronted with the risks of being persecuted. Nonetheless, all of these countries reject any person who come from the “safe countries of origins” and/or pass through the “safe third countries”. Actually, our government ever granted Indochina refugees entering Taiwan the national treatments as well as the rights of permanent residency and naturalization. This fact proved that our country has practiced the spirit of “Refugees Convention”, and the Draft of Refugee Act is also in conformity with this convention. Nevertheless, there is none article to guarantee the petitioners against the deportation in this draft act. Besides, it is predictable that our government will hardly build a direct contact with the UNHCR because this agency does not intent to give offence to the “One-China Principle” which is defined by the PRC government. Notwithstanding this, our government has been not only utilizing the transnational NGO cooperation mechanism, but also initiatively complying with the international norms of the universal values for seeking any meaningful participation in the international humanitarian system. Finally, it is suggested that the relevant authorities should, by revising the bill or enacting rules in the regulations, promote to add the “humanitarian protection” mechanism, stipulate the legal time limit for the preliminary examination, and protect the petitioners from the deportation. Furthermore, giving consideration to the international law, the constitutionalism, and the practical requirements to guarantee the PRC peoples’ rights of asylum, it is proposed that the Refugee Act shall apply mutatis mutandis to the asylum matters for the peoples having the PRC nationalities.

Hakka culture needs to survive. Apart from the promotion of Hakka culture and the reconstruction of Hakka assets, the most important key depends on whether or not the Hakka youth can invest in the preservation of Hakka culture. To achieve this, the government's Hakka youth policy is very important. After all, how much help the government can provide to the client youth will determine how much Keqiao youth can invest in. Therefore, through the data compilation and in-depth interviews of this article, we hope to obtain from it: (1)To understand the current connotation of the Hakka Youth Policy?(2)To collate and analyze the current content of the Hakka youth policy and further understand the inadequacies of the current Hakka youth policy?(3)What are the needs of Hakka youth for policies? Through this sort of arrangement, the direction of the Hakka youth policy can be found, and besides being provided to the ruling authorities as an accident, it also hopes to do its utmost for the revival of the Hakka culture.
