Average rent 27% of pay

Salaried workers who live in rented accommodation in Taiwan spend about 27 percent of their income on average on rent, a 1111 Job Bank poll found. Respondents had an average monthly salary of NT$34,386. Those from Taipei and spent an average of NT$10,392 per month on their accommodation, the most among the six special municipalities. Of the six municipalities, Tainan had the cheapest rent, with respondents spending an average of NT$6,000 per month, the poll showed. The average size of rented apartments for salaried workers was about 42.4m2, the poll found. About 38 percent of respondents said they rented because they could not afford to buy. The survey was conducted among 1,180 salaried workers older than 18 who were registered members of 1111 Job Bank. It ran from July 2 until Thursday.

理想型180CM以上,斯文有氣質,舉止談吐文質彬彬,笑容可掬,笑相好看,歡迎這類型男子哈哈!!! 一個人愛不愛你,不是看你們在一起的時間長短,而是他願意給你一個承諾,我不懂什麼叫挽留,我只知道愛我的人不會離開我,因為他知道我會難過,你無法叫醒一個裝睡的人,也無法感動一個不愛你的人 世上不愛的理由有很多忙,累,為你好,而愛的表現只有一個就想和你在一起給你一個幸福的家!!! 真正的愛,不是累了就放手,不是不合適就分開.是即使再累也想在一起,即使不合適也想努力爭取,累是因為在乎,不合適是因為愛得不夠,真正的愛沒有那麼多藉口!!!

130
Q

Today, Taiwan’s Aborigines are a disadvantaged minority group. The main reason for this is that during the Age of Discovery, they were robbed and oppressed by armed colonial rulers such as the Netherlands and Spain. Those were followed by Zheng Chenggong (鄭成功, also known as Koxinga), whom Han people respectfully refer to as Kaitaizu, meaning “the one who opened up Taiwan.” He turned Taiwan into a Han society by bringing large numbers of Han Chinese to Taiwan.

From that time on, Aboriginal land was occupied and claimed, for example in what is now Yilan County and Puli Township (埔里) in Nantou County. When the Japanese arrived, the state apparatus worked with the private sector to steal Aboriginal land. This system remained in place after World War II, as the Han-led state continued to occupy Aboriginal land and turn it into state-owned land.

A

http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/editorials/archives/2019/09/20/2003722591
The word “Taiwan” derives from the name of a Sirayan Taioan community in what is today Tainan’s Anping District (安平). In Chinese, that was rendered “Taiyuan” (臺員) and “Taiwowan” (臺窩灣) among others, and gradually developed into “Taiwan.” This is evidence that the Minnan, who arrived from Zhangzhou and Quanzhou in China’s Fujian Province, were not “Taiwanese.”
