UNIONIZED? The company said it has a deal with the Taxi Driver Labor Union of the ROC, but a government official said it would maintain a crackdown on illegal servicesBy Shelley Shan / Staff reporterUber Taiwan yesterday announced plans to launch a new service called UberTAXI next month by working with local taxi operators.However, the Ministry of Transportation and Communications said the company would remain an illegal service provider and would be ordered to cease operations if it continues to hire drivers who do not hold a license to operate commercial vehicles.Uber Taiwan made the seemingly conciliatory move after amendments to the Highway Act (公路法) took effect earlier this month, raising the maximum fine for illegal taxi operators to NT$25 million (US$790,564).Uber said that the service is a partnership with the Taxi Driver Labor Union of the Republic of China, adding that it would initially be offered in the Greater Taipei area.People could call a cab by using the Uber app and would be charged based on standard rates set by taxis operating in Taipei, Uber said.Despite its partnership with the union, the company said it has no intention to drop its UberX, UberBlack and UberAssist services, which use non-licensed drivers.“The introduction of UberTAXI shows that a sharing economy and taxis can coexist in Taiwan’s healthy, vibrant and diversified market, which benefits both drivers and passengers,” Uber Taiwan general manager Ku Li-kai (顧立楷) said. “The partnership [with the union] demonstrates Uber’s commitment to the Taiwanese market. We will continue our negotiations with government agencies and hope that the government would draft appropriate laws to regulate ride-sharing services.”Union chairman Lin Sheng-he (林聖河) said that it is looking forward to its partnership with Uber Taiwan, as the technology developed by the company can help cab drivers find more passengers and increase their income.Passengers will have another safe, reliable and quality service option, he said.Lin said that 60 to 70 percent of union members said in a survey that they were willing to be Uber drivers if there is another platform out there that matches the service requests with the taxi drivers.However, the partnership would cease if the company continues to dispatch illegal taxi drivers, he said.Taipei City Professional Drivers’ Union president Cheng Li-chia (鄭力嘉) said that Lin made a unilateral decision to work with Uber without consulting other groups.Department of Railways and Highways specialist Hu Ti-chi (胡迪琦) said that the ministry is not yet clear about the details of the partnership, but it is glad to see that Uber has decided to work with taxi operators.However, Hu added: “Even if part of Uber’s operation is legal now, we will continue cracking down on its illegal services. That is, if it continues hiring drivers who do not have a valid taxi driver’s license.”Uber will have to apply to become a legal transport service provider if it dispatches taxi drivers and charges passengers for the service, she added.Uber would not have any legal issue if it simply serves as a non-profit platform that matches taxi drivers with passengers requesting cab services, she said.However, it becomes a legal issue if Uber pays and dispatches drivers to offer services, because it is not a registered transport service operator, she said.Statistics from the Directorate General of Highways showed that as of Friday last week, Uber has been fined a total of NT$96.49 million: NT$73.25 million for the company and NT$23.24 million for its drivers.新聞來源:TAIPEI TIMES

大陸中國櫻花產業協會19日在從化天適櫻花園召開中國首次賞櫻播報發佈會,而值得關注的是,執行主席何宗儒表示,這回也首次針對台灣地區的物櫻花花期進行播報。

《金羊網》報導,中國櫻花花期在19日首次舉行全國播報,而台灣櫻花也被列為其中,成為新一年中國旅遊和文化界的首件里程碑;1月28日大年初一當天,2017年第六屆天適(從化)櫻花文化節也正式開啟,將見證今年中國華南地區最早盛開的櫻花。

由於日本氣象株式會社每年都會對日本全國櫻花花學英語會話期進行播報,因此中國櫻花產業協會從去年開始小範圍試水櫻花花期播報,得到意想不到的關注,因此今年進一步將櫻花花期播報延伸至全國,這在歷史上還是第一次,範圍也包括港澳台地區。

「台灣櫻花的加入,更象徵著兩岸文化大團結。」中國櫻花產業協會執行主席何宗儒指出,台灣花農期待兩岸的民間合作,給台灣櫻成人美語家教補習班推薦花帶來新的發展機遇。

據了解,中國的櫻花以紅色和粉色為主,花開時形成一片中國紅,看起來蔚為壯觀,而與日本櫻花只有7-10天的壽命相比,中國櫻花因品種不同,花期能延長到2個月;而天適(從化)櫻花文化節將從大年初一持續到4月9日,期間活動有繽紛花海、櫻花文化博覽園、兒童樂園、櫻花美食風情街等,錯過可是要等明年了!
