----2014 Taiwan School Cyberfair project
by Ling Jhou Anser Team B
- Project Introduction
Ling Jhou Primary School is located in Lingya district, Kaohsiung city. It is close to Asian New Bay Area which is constructed in full swing. The area comprises of major building projects such as Convention and Exhibition Center, Music Center. It seems the city will have a prosperous future. However, the Xin Bin Old Street in Hamasen area, which is on the other side of the harbor, is facing demolition and alternation. Many residents there resist that change. Fortunately, a group of people are trying to help the residents. They thus established "Takko Renaissance Association" in 2012 and dedicate themselves to heritage preservation in Kaohsiung.
We have a chance to contact the association. Through its members' explanation, we understood the residents' helpless situations and their panic because of receiving a three-month move-out notice from the government. Therefore, we want to follow the association members' determination, "No demolition. No move. Guard Hamasen." We also hope that we can do meaningful things for "Takao Renaissance Association". We think that we can put their stories on the website so that more people can join them.
