Thanks for the focus. Hopefull...Excellent points! Thanks for the focus. Hopefully this represents a sea change in the attitude towards cycling and associated infrastructure in Taiwan. Nice to see this discussion being presented in the mainstream media. "King" Liu and his cronies are certainly rich enough.

Hopefully this type of commentary in the mainstream media heralds a sea change in the perception of cycling and associated infrastructure in Taiwan.
