(Central News Agency reporter Wang Chao-yu, Yilan, 11th) Lin Kuo-Chang, the Democratic Progressive Party's candidate for Yilan County Magistrate, today unveiled his "Marine New Yilan" plan, proposing visions such as building an "International Blue Highway" connecting Su'ao to Japan, aiming to transform Yilan into an international marine gateway. He will pay tribute to the sea by visiting Guishan Island tomorrow.
Lin Kuo-Chang stated at the press conference that Yilan's future lies in the ocean. He will propose three commitments to create a marine vision for the next 50 years, focusing on "fishery upgrading, marine tourism economy, marine sports capital, and marine technology," so that every generation of Yilan residents can live and work in peace and prosperity.
Lin Kuo-Chang pointed out that the first priority is to care for fishermen. In the future, he will implement a program to acquire old fishing boats, assist elderly fishermen in a "pain-free retirement," and introduce cold chain technology and Yilan brand certification to transform fishery products into international boutique items. The second priority is to allow various industries to profit from tourism. He plans to connect fishing villages from Toucheng to Nan'ao Bay, create an "International Blue Highway" from Su'ao to Japan, and transform Yilan into a "3D Outdoor Playground of Mountains and Sea," accompanied by international events and festivals such as the "Yilan Marine Music Festival," to plan a new economic development engine for Yilan.
Lin Kuo-Chang stated that the third priority is to prevent young people from leaving their hometowns. By combining the Yilan Science Park, Longde Industrial Park, and marine energy development, he aims to build a "Taiwan Smart Marine Bay" in Su'ao, introducing high-end marine technology and AI drone industry chains to create high-paying job opportunities, allowing young people to stay in their hometown. He also pledged that upon election, he will establish the "Yilan Marine Development Office" to personally coordinate administrative resources, allowing Yilan to truly "develop towards the sea."
