Pingtung in the News 屏東的新聞 (South 南) 9


There are 29 townships, 3 municipalities and one city in Pingtung County.  It's exhausting to include news from every township, municipality and Pingtung City every time, so what I'll do instead is include news items from eleven different townships or municipalities in each entry.  This way I should be able to work my way through Pingtung County every three entries. 屏東縣包含了29個鄉, 3個鎮還有屏東市.  每次討論所有鄉鎮的新聞太累了, 所以我會每次討論11個鄉鎮的報告.  這樣子我每三篇新聞文章就會涵蓋到全縣內鄉鎮的新聞.

1. I would guess that driving too damn fast is at least part of the reason.  I drive that highway fairly often, and I can attest that it can be very dangerous at times.

2.  Haven't been?  Interested in visiting?  If I were you I'd avoid that place during holiday weekends.  It gets crazy.  If I'm being honest I also have to say that it's not as nice as many hot spring areas on the east coast.

3. Although I can say I rode my bike up to the reservoir in Mudan not long ago.  It was nice.

4. The Chinese headline reads "21,000 households go without power."  I believe they're including all surrounding townships/municipalities in that figure.  The village where I live in Hengchun is also without power, and I doubt there are are 21,000 households in all of Manzhou.

5. Manzhou definitely got the worst of this typhoon.

6. During typhoons isolating "Hengchun Municipality" as a news item can be hard.  Everything from Fangshan Township south is part of the Hengchun Peninsula, and Hengchun Municipality tends to be grouped into any peninsula-wide event.
