My Reaction:

As a resident of Taiwan , we all know that the unemployment rate is increasing recently . There are more and more people unemployed under the recession of economy . Therefore, “Take action on economy” is a indispensable issue to every government in nowadays . However, say is easier than be done . ECCT gives Taiwan many useful advices that it is needed to be concerned . I think the government should take some necessary policies to help our economy. For example , revitalizing consumption, creating more jobs, and strengthening competitiveness . We need some tactics to deal with the recession effectively , instead of just waiting for time to recover it.

The toughness of Taiwanese people is not to be mentioned . We should turn the bad effect to the good one as possible . For example , though we often be defeated by China in the international occasions , we should prove our abilities harder to let others know our unique value . In addition , not only the government but also the public should find out the best way to improve the economy development and work on together . As the proverb says,” The opportunity is remains for the person which prepares.”(205words)

I knew the news when I was having my lunch at a crowded restaurant.Seeing the violent and frightening scene on the TV , I was so shocked that I even don’t want to eat anymore . Taiwan is proud of its democracy and friendliness , how can they do such irrational things to our guest ? Though we have many negative opinions toward China , it’s very offhand and rude anyway . It is very shamed to Taiwan . To my point of view, the violence should be condemned seriously . It is true that everyone has the freedom of expression of one's political views , as long as do not harm the people who are protested .
We all have passion and hope to Taiwan, where we live and we love . Despite the disadvantaged things China had done to us , we should not lose our rationality and treat them in such a discourteous way . In addition , we need to keep our manner whatever they have done to us . It’s a national courtesy. Therefore, we should learn how to control our temper instead of offending other people no matter what happened . If those protesters turn their passion to our country’s development , Taiwan maybe become more prosperous .(224words)
