Annan District of Tainan City with a vast territory, and adjoins Yongkang City and Anding Township on its east side, and Zengwun River, Sigang and Cigu Townshiop on its north side, and extends to Taiwan Strait on its west side. It adjoins Anping, and central west and north districts of this City as delimited by Yanshuei River. It occupies an area of 107.2 square kilometers, which accounts for three-fifths of the whole area occupied by this City. It is not only the largest administrative district of this City but also the district occupying the largest area in all provincial cities throughout Taiwan Province. The agricultural land, fish farm, science parks and wildlife protective zones in the whole District total 2,684 hectares, 3,012 hectares, 709 hectares and 523.848 hectares respectively, in addition to communities, roads, rivers and land used for the cemetery.
This District was situated along the remote coast and developed agriculture and fishery only, the infrastructure always fell behind in this District before it was included in any urban plans. Owing to the government’s dedicated development in this District in recent years, the roads have been developed gradually and have become more and more convenient, e.g. development of national highway No. 8 (Anji Road), Beian Road, costal roads (Anming Road), Sihcao Avenue, Luermen Avenue, No. 9 highway of 2nd degree and No. 7 highway of 2nd degree (to be developed), and science parks. Meanwhile, the government lifted the restriction on construction for 500 hectares and introduced Annan School of National Cheng Kung University and lots of private colleges to be incorporated in this District (Leader University and Hsing Kuo University of Management), and many large-size temples located inside this District attracted people from other places. Therefore, the population of this District has been increasing day by day. For the time being, this District has 51 villages, 937 neighborhood units, 53 social development associations, 20 community activity centers, 18 village activity centers, 60 temples and 4 churches. Additionally, in consideration of the vast territory in this District and the City Government’s orientation towards the development of “technology, ecology, religion and learning”, the future development in this District can be expected soon.
This District has fruitful natural ecological resources and all of supervisors are dedicated to planning and investing in this District. This District is believed to be suitable for the development of tourism, technology and industry, and is able to provide the fine-quality learning and residing environment. We will establish this District as a modern city for technology, ecology, religion and learning to preserve our own culture and also hold the view of globalization.

In consideration of the entire space and resources, we move forward toward the following prospects to make this District a “New Annan for Technology, Ecology, Religion and Learning”:

Town of technology industry: Tainan Technology Industrial Park is the new technology city of southern Taiwan’s silicon valley. The professional production area, human-based living space, and natural ecological preservation area in the park constitute the fine-quality environment consisting of production, life and ecology. Meanwhile, the “Southern Taiwan Innovation & Research Park” in the Industrial Park is established to integrate the technology R&D resources in this District to form the town of technology industry.
Tourism for ecological preservation: The linking of “Sihcao Wildlife Preserve”, “Sihcao Mangrove Preserve” and “Salt Field Eco-Culture Village” forms the elegant views on the salty wetland of “Trip for ecology of Taijiang”. “Southwest Coast National Scenic Area” has also been established. We expect that the planning of “Taijiang National Park” and “Recreation & Parking Area of Western City Tourism” can be completed as early as possible.
3. Religious tourism: This District has a lot of magnificent temples, particularly Matsu Temple of Lurmen, Orthodox Luermen Matsu Temple and Sihcao Dajhong Temple. Mass believers and guests visit this District to worship the temples every year, who are very helpful to the tourism.
Development area of university city: schools, such as Annan School of National Cheng Kung University, and Tainan Hydraulics Laboratory and Research and Services Headquarters of NCKU, and Leader University and Hsing Kuo University of Management, form a university city. Furthermore, the establishment of National Museum of Taiwan History and gym may found the base of an important academic city.

I greatly appreciate that Mayor Hsu and all the folks that have given me the chance to serve in this District. Since I assumed the post, I have always followed the philosophy for “all citizens, civilians, convenience to citizens and all for citizens”, acted in consideration of the district residents’ interest and right and dedicated myself to seeking welfare for all folks. Finally, I sincerely call on all people to fight for themselves in the new Annan to enrich and develop the Annan District.
