To Our Dear Countryside - Dialogues and Dreams
你农我农 -- 我们所不知道的农村 : 危机与转机
Pressing Current Affairs:
Mainland China: At the end of 2013, The Third Plenary Session announced that use right of Rural Profit-Oriented Land can be transferred.” This implies that rural land market is freed to a certain extent. Many developers are already eyeing this opportunity. Where does the future of China’s vast countryside lie? Will it go through the crude process of urbanisation like many existing suburban areas?
Taiwan: Powered with WTO agreement, the Rural Rejuvenation Act, and Land Expropriation Act, Taiwanese government and enterprises have been championing economic development strongly. However, as the result of such development, the country is losing a significant amount of agriculture land, which in turn affects the food supply. What is your position given the current situation?
急迫的现状:
中国大陆:2013年底,“三中全会决定:农村经营性用地可出让”,意味着农村土地市场一定程度上开放了;各路开发商虎视眈眈。农村的未来在哪?它是城市发展的粗暴复制吗?
台湾:扬着发展大旗的政府和企业,挟着WTO、农业再生条例、土地征收条例蚕食鲸吞台湾的农地和农产,有关你我的食物供给链正在崩解,你的角色在哪里?我们能坐视不管吗?
