From the very beginning, the administration team of Yilan County has maintained a core value of creating a highly livable county in sustainable development.Now, in response to the opening of the Taipei-Yilan Highway, we further propose a vision of "Technology County, University Town" in planning for the future development of Yilan. By building on existing infrastructures for the balanced co-existence of ecology, living and production, we hope to turn Yilan into a county that is not only great to live in, great to work in and great for recreations, but is also a rich and diverse museum of life.

Hsinchu Science Park's Yilan base has already been approved for construction by the Executive Yuan, and will become the first center in Taiwan devoted to the research and development of communications knowledge service. At the same time, a Marine Bioscience Park that serves mainly to promote the upgrade and reform of local fish farming and seafood processing industries is being championed.

At this crucial moment immediately before the opening of the Taipei-Yilan Highway, Yilan undoubtedly is an area with the brightest potential and the best competitiveness in Taiwan. Here is a great chance to increase the strength of your enterprise and expand your business. You are sincerely invited to make Yilan the base of your regional operations and use its deep resources to grasp the lively business opportunities across the Strait. We welcome you to move into the beautiful new highway age with us.

When working can be unrestricted by geographic location, when anyone can do a job in any corner of the world, people can then find a place to live that makes life meaningful. An unspoiled natural environment, warm, friendly neighbors, and a rich local culture, these will be the key factors people consider in choosing a place to live.
