Major Policies

Care for life and welfare: Constructive thoughts on welfare bring help on the disadvantaged.

(1)A comprehensive care policy for senior citizens: We construct a service system that is based on community care and evaluated on the level of disability of each individual. The management mechanism will then arrange the proper care service models, level of subsidiaries and connecting services. We will also focus on supportive and preventive care service for our senior citizens

(2)An aggressive and constructive social welfare system.
We created the first life aid system with professional services and evaluation mechanism in Taiwan. We set up a aid service center for the disabled in the southern and northern part of the city. Also, for the low-function families with children and teenagers (including those with spouses from foreign countries and Mainland China), we provide parental guidance and house chore assistance to help empower the main caretakers of these families.

(3)Promote tree interment, spray interment and Internet memorial services: The three major principles for our funeral and interment services are “the respect for the deceased”, “the care to the family”, and “the enhanced service proficiency”. Moreover, to introduce more versatile, environment-friendly and nature-preserving ways of interments, Taipei is the first city in Taiwan to introduce tree and spray interments. During the time from November 2003 to February 2004, there were 29 cases of tree interments and 2 cases of spray interments.
