"Southern Taiwanese are leaning forward so-called Taiwan-centered awareness over time. Nonetheless, Taiwan-centered awareness has been labeled politically. If our minds agree to such sentimental values manipulated by the politicians, consumption and customer's behavior would shift to that side. Consequently, people in Taiwan begin passing up the opportunity to engage in relatively advanced customer behavior. Southern Taiwan is indeed intentionally conserving things that are gone obsolescent...... The professed "local-ism" is supposed to move forward as the time elapses. In the present climate, the mind of Taiwanese society begins to wander and be missing in a childish age. If this kind of tendency continues, I think metropolitan areas in northern Taiwan will swiftly be enclosed by backward hamlets."
