Railway Development
History of Developments
Taiwan's sugar industry railway is a very important part in the development of Taiwan's sugar industry. Without the sugar industry railway, the transportation of sugar cane and other raw materials to the factory is very time-consuming and labored, because if only cattle are used to pull carts or manpower to transport, the speed and load are not as fast as the railway. After the sino-japanese war in 1894-1895, China ceded penghu and Taiwan to Japan. At the beginning of Japan's takeover of Taiwan, due to Japan's domestic economic depression and lack of funds from the governor's office, no funds were attracted for investment. 。
