Why It Matters
Taipei Mayoral Candidate Shen Boyang's Academic Support Association was officially established, inviting scholars for talks and endorsements.
Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang's academic support group was established. One of the invited interlocutors, Professor Lin Yiren of the Museum Research Institute of Taipei University of the Arts (front row, 1st right), said that Shen Boyang's policy orientation is related to ecology and the environment, and is discussed in a systematic way. He has also been trained in ecology and has studied where rats live in high mountains in Alishan. "So I am actually a real rodent detector." The scene immediately applauded.
Lin Yiren said that before the formation of "Ocean Current", he had noticed Shen Boyang's emphasis on policy aspects, which were also related to ecology and environment, and discussed them in a systematic way. He laughed and said that as a professor, he couldn't help but talk about it when he got the microphone, and started from home. Because Shen emphasizes the concept of social ecology and has an ecological training background, he can empathize with the environmental and spatial issues mentioned in Shen's policies. When he was studying for a master's degree class more than 40 years ago, he studied where rats live in high mountains in Alishan. "So I am actually a real rodent detector."
Lin Yiren pointed out, "I'm not joking. If I catch a mouse, I won't be able to graduate!" Many people think that mice are just mice. They don't know that there can be many kinds of mice in the same forest. Some live in burrows, on grass, and in tree trunks. They have many different habitats, but it But they live in the same forest. "And actually they are not that scary! They are not as scary as the rats I talked about a while ago." The urban rats in the dirty place next to the trash can are unpleasant, but the rats in the forest are actually very cute, "as long as they appear where they should be."
Lin Yiren mentioned that it would be inappropriate to appear in the Arena. The research at that time was to explore why in a forest, there are different rats, but they can coexist and differentiate resources without excessive competition. "Eco" in the English word "Ecology" means home and should be translated as "where". Who is there, what is there, when, where, how and why. Once these questions are asked, "I think Taiwanese identity will come out."
