Central News Agency (CNA) reporter Jiang Yi-jing, Chiayi City, 16th May. Chiayi City's Yue Tao Story House held an unveiling activity today for its 'Environmental Education Facility and Sheltered Workshop,' combining local industrial characteristics with social care concepts to promote a dual-track development of environmental education and sheltered employment, creating a diverse venue that is both sustainable and mutually beneficial.
Chiayi City Mayor Huang Min-hui and Deputy Mayor Chen Yong-feng led the municipal government team to attend the unveiling ceremony, thanking Yue Tao Story House for its long-term commitment to environmental sustainability and providing employment counseling and support for friends with disabilities. This not only fulfills its social responsibility but also successfully practices the concept of simultaneous advancement of 'economic development, social progress, and environmental protection.'
Huang Min-hui stated that Yue Tao Story House is now not only a tourist factory but was also certified by the Ministry of Environment last year as an environmental education facility venue. It has now become the 4th sheltered workshop in Chiayi City, providing job opportunities to friends with physical and mental disabilities, helping them build confidence and demonstrate their value. While developing into a characteristic industry with economic value, it also practices the spirit of 'living well for generations' and creates a sustainable and mutually beneficial urban vision.
Huang Min-hui expects more companies to invest in sustainability and social feedback, allowing 'sustainability to be integrated into governance,' 'sustainability to become a lifestyle,' and even 'sustainability to be turned into business opportunities.' She also encouraged the public to support sheltered products with action, as every consumption is supporting a family with disabilities, allowing the value of social welfare to continue to spread.
The Construction Department emphasized that through this unveiling, industrial, governmental, and academic resources are connected to gradually build a sustainable development model with local Chiayi characteristics, enhance the city's cultural visibility and industrial value, and create an iconic venue for environmental education and social innovation.
At the unveiling activity, a 'Yue Tao Festival Creative Dish Presentation' was also held, inviting local teams to use Yue Tao ingredients for creative culinary displays, including Yue Tao steamed grouper, Yue Tao stewed chicken, and other dishes, which the public called 'creative and delicious' after eating.
