Company Profile

Taichung City is the center of Taiwan. The comfortable natural environment and the advantaged traffic condition have not only attracted many young fellows, but made Taichung the youngest city with most college-educated population. Therefore, Taichung will become the central urban area of Taiwan after the merging with Taichung County. Efficiency, quality of services, honesty and accountability are the standards by which this government will be judged. These are also the fundamental standards upheld by our city government civil servants. Our team of young, energetic city workers is determined to transform Taichung into a dream city where people can enjoy the best quality of life. Their efforts have already been recognized. Last summer, the City of Taichung has been selected as the Most Livable City in Taiwan in a poll conducted by Commonwealth, a prestigious business magazine.
