In 2005, the community organizations in Tong-men asked the Shou-lin Township Office and Hualien County Government to designate the Mukumuyu Ecological Cultural Scenic Area which might provide the legitimacy to regulate the out of control tourism and also promote economic activities and protect local job opportunities. Few years later, part of local residents protested. Regarding this Ecological Cultural Scenic Area which likes to benefit local community, the result summarized several reasons to explain why it was raised and protested by the local community. They are: the top-down approach for the governmental projects, lacking transparency in the planning processes, uneven resource distribution, internal fragmentation and opposition, conflicts with local livelihoods, etc. This case reminds that it needs to have more understanding on local context, promote local participation, transparent relevant information, develop a mechanism for accountability, and considering equality and equity. We thus could have local supports and maintain goodness of the policy. |
