Taiwan Tour Bus
According to Taiwan's " China Times Electronic News ", mainland tourists are not coming, and the island's tourism industry is in poor condition. Zhang Zhiben, chairman of the Taichung City Tour Bus Association, said helplessly today (2nd), The tourism industry is under great pressure, especially the tour bus operators. There are more than 3,000 tour buses in Taiwan, and more than 1,000 of them are idle and unable to carry guests. There are some in the parking lot next to the Wugu Expressway in New Taipei City 2,000 tour buses are idle, and as many as 20% of the tour buses in Taichung City are waiting for auction and sale. Now that the Democratic Progressive Party authorities are forcing a "one case, one holiday" policy, which has also increased operating costs, the industry "can no longer survive"! According to reports, Zhang Zhiben pointed out that due to the lack of mainland tourist groups, 10% of tour bus companies have closed down recently, and only three tour bus companies in Taichung City have collapsed. The only remaining tour bus companies are doing business in a deserted manner, and all tour buses in Taiwan are waiting to be sold. And the auction is about 20%. Some poorly managed tour bus companies want to pay off their debts, but the loan company still doesn't want to take over the vehicles. Even if they offer a 40% discount off the market price, they still can't sell them. "I can't save it! I'm going to sell noodles!" The 50-year-old tour bus driver surnamed Xie has been running a tour bus for 20 years. He mainly receives mainland tourist groups and is responsible for taking passengers on one-day tours of scenic spots in Taichung. The number of tour groups picked up by travel agencies has gradually decreased since last year. During the peak season for mainland tourists coming to Taiwan, they had to pick up three groups a month. From the beginning of this year to now, there were only three trips in three months. I was worried that I might lose my job, so I decided to change my career. Mr. Xie reluctantly pointed out that the lack of mainland tourists will have a great impact on Taiwan. Many tour guides and tour bus drivers are unemployed, and they are faced with the "one case, one holiday" situation. The owner of the car dealership said that it was difficult to operate and had to sell cars. He was reluctant to part with the sports car for many years. , but seeing the tragic situation of Taiwan’s tourism industry, the authorities must not stand idly by. According to Taiwan's "Wang Bao" report, Chinese Kuomintang presidential candidate Pan Weigang html said on the 42nd that this phenomenon is a bleak witness to the biggest scam of the Democratic Progressive Party authorities to "maintain the status quo". Pan Weigang pointed out that since the Tsai Ing-wen administration took office, it has not only ignored the sufferings of the people, but also betrayed the people before the election and betrayed the people after the election. The tour bus operators just want to live and work in peace and contentment, but now even the tour buses, which are tools for making a living, have to be sold on consignment in tears. This is as cruel as taking away farmers' cattle in the agricultural era. She said that facts have proven that the past prosperity due to "maintaining the status quo" is no longer the same, and Tsai Ing-wen's "maintaining the status quo" is simply an election gimmick. Once upon a time, the tourist buses that frequently came and went in wealthy Taiwan are now pitifully parked in Wugu, desolately witnessing the Tsai administration's biggest scam of "maintaining the status quo." editor: little beast
