It shorts of traffic construction which limits tourism and industry development so establishing perfect rail transportation has some benefits to the development of regional industry and the expansion of public life.
The Ministry of Transportation and Communications has conducted a feasibility assessment on the Extension of the High-Speed Railway to Pingtung at the end of January this year. The assessment covers engineering, financial, environmental and sustainability aspects, and will also take various routes into consideration; the relevant report is expected to be completed by the end of this year.
The perfect transportation construction requires the participation of the government and relevant authorities.

II. Topics
The discussion will be divided into two topics: "The impact of high-speed rail System on the balanced development of land" and "The impact of regional rail system on sustainable urban development".
The first topic mainly discusses the feasibility of promoting the balanced development of land from the construction of high-speed railway. To achieve the balanced development of land, regional governments can discuss geography, culture, living conditions, governance scale and development degree, etc. Further, it shall promote the development of surrounding counties and cities with metropolitan municipal governments to make it give the play to the positive leadership function and bear the upward pull the impetus of surrounding counties and cities, so that the land can develop in a balanced way.
