Description of Our Community: The Port of Taipei locates at northen area of Taiwan. Also, it locates in southwest bound of the Tamshui River, close to the water area of Bali and Linkou. It faces to the Taiwan Strait and takes Guan-Yin Mountain as its natural cover. It is approximatly 40 NM to the Keelung Port in East , 87 NM to Taichun Port in South and 134 NM to the Fuzhou Port of the mainland China in West. It is suitable to build the large scale of port facilities for the direct cruise between Taiwan and China and ocean route.

Project Description: Since January 2009, the No. 64 Expressway was opened to traffic, it just has taken 30 minutes by car from the urban Taipei to Taipei Port. The Port of Taipei is going to take the place of Keelung Harbor and become the largest national harbor in Taiwan for next century. In the process of constructing this huge harbor, will it bring conflicts to local inhabitants? Through children’s points of view, let us know this big, trans century construction.
