China Taiwan Network , 41, 21, According to Taiwan's "China Times Electronic News", Changhua County offshore wind farm is regarded as an excellent place for wind power generation, attracting wind power developers around the world, but the developer's electricity industry establishment license has not been approved for a long time, and the developer even issued an ultimatum to the Taiwan authorities. The Taiwan authorities claimed that it was a "lockdown" of Changhua County Government and had not issued a letter of approval for the review. In response to this, Wang Huimei, the Xinke County Mayor, couldn't help but slap the table and raise her voice to ask, "When will I, Wang Huimei, become so great?" He secretly criticized the Taiwan authorities for being ungrateful and generous to the county and city, and wanted to turn the responsibility onto the county and city.

Wang Huimei emphasized that she does not oppose the development of green energy, but Changhua wind power development involves fishery, port shipping, sightseeing and rest, cultural assets, ecological protection and land security, etc., and needs to be carefully evaluated and planned in a week. She said that the ruler should consider the greatest welfare of the whole people and should not do it recklessly just for non-nuclear homes. During the tenure of former county magistrate Wei Minggu, the Changhua County Government fully cooperated with the energy policies led by the Taiwan authorities, including Taiwan's "China Steel", Denmark's Voxue Energy, CIP Copenhagen Infrastructure Fund and Hailong, four developers, expected total investment amount to be over trillion yuan (NT$, the same below). However, when the operator applied for a license for the electricity industry preparation from the Taiwan authorities' " Energy Bureau ", the Taiwan authorities said that they must attach the approval documents of the county and municipal governments. The "Energy Bureau" sent a letter to the Changxian County Government at the end of last year and at the beginning of this year, but neither received a reply to the review of the approval letter. Denmark Voxu Energy even issued an ultimatum to the Taiwan authorities, and the subsequent re-adjustment of the contract may be based on the rate results, political risks, etc.

In response to this, Wang Huimei pointed out that the electricity purchase rate is 5.8 yuan or 5.1 yuan, and whether to approve the license are all rights and responsibilities of the Taiwan authorities. She has no right to argue or express her opinion. In September last year, the county government gave a letter of consent. After taking office, she reviewed all application documents with the bureau director and did not require the county government to agree again. Wang Huimei questioned that in fact, the official document was received on December 24 last year. Wei Minggu signed a reply before resigning from office, so there was no need to leave it to her. Why didn’t Wei Minggu sign it himself?

Wang Huimei emphasized that most wind farms are offshore Changhua, and the Taiwan authorities collect 600 million yuan in site fees annually. During his tenure, Wei Minggu issued a document asking the Taiwan authorities to allocate half of the application for Changhua, but it was rejected and rejected! Moreover, the development process is clearly set to require the approval of the district fishermen. In the end, the "Agriculture Commission" only requires the "Fishings Administration" to issue an approval form on behalf of others, and there is no concern about the fishermen. Now he says he needs to ask the Changhua County Government, and the double standards are outrageous.

Wang Huimei said that at the rate of 5.8 yuan last year, the annual reward of county and municipal governments was only more than 100 million yuan, while more than 20,000 jobs were mainly concentrated in Taichung Port , and Changhua only had more than 500. He said that he wanted to build a tourist fishing port and recreation terminal, and the funds were 3.4 billion yuan, and the Taiwan authorities were only willing to subsidize more than 400 million yuan. A memorandum of cooperation promised to give back to 34 game facilities, and the cost was not stated. Before

cannot see the benefits, fishermen's livelihood, white dolphin and other ecological conservation plans, Wang Huimei's attitude is firm and she must let the Taiwan authorities take full control and not want to be involved or trash again. (China Taiwan Network Jia Ruolan)
