Genuinely Great Buys: Bonus 800 to Revitalize Hakka Village Tourism, Now Is the Time
"Genuine" "Heartfelt" "Great" "Buys" - A Great Time for Tourism, Bonus 800 to Revitalize and Enjoy Hakka Villages
(Taiwan TB News Network / Reporter Zhuzhu) To revitalize Hakka village industry development after the pandemic and encourage people to get outdoors, the Hakka Affairs Council, in conjunction with the Executive Yuan's revitalization plan, has added a bonus "Romantic Hakka Village Tourism Voucher" program. Hakka Affairs Council Minister Yang Chang-chen stated that this "Romantic Hakka Village Tourism Voucher" has 4 major highlights: "Genuine," "Heartfelt," "Great," and "Buys." Participating stores and members of the public simply need to use LINE@ to become friends with the Hakka Affairs Council - "Genuine"ly easy; young people can register and collect vouchers on behalf of their elders - most "Heartfelt"; easy mobile payment for purchases - "Great" and practical; stores can integrate multiple vouchers for use - "Buys" and convenient. Among these, unlike the revitalization plans of other ministries, the Hakka Affairs Council is the first to launch a "Filial Priority Plan." For households with elders aged 65 or above, from July 15 to July 19, younger family members may register on their behalf (up to two elders). It is hoped that young people will bring the whole family along to explore the most diverse and rich cultural heritage of Hakka villages, thereby driving consumer momentum in Hakka village areas and achieving the goal of revitalizing the Hakka village tourism industry.
In addition to welcoming members of the public who hold the "Romantic Hakka Village Tourism Voucher," who starting from August 1, 109 (2020) may spend and use them at more than 4,000 "Romantic Hakka Village Tour Designated Stores" across 70 key Hakka cultural development areas in 11 counties and cities throughout Taiwan. At checkout, simply open the voucher and scan the QR code; for every 100 yuan spent, 1 voucher can be deducted, with a maximum deduction of 800 yuan at one time, making it both safe and convenient to use. Furthermore, to meet the public's needs for "tasting Hakka food and buying goods," local food, cultural and creative, and lodging businesses in 70 key Hakka cultural development areas across 11 counties and cities nationwide that are legally registered and have a tax registration are welcome to apply to join as "Romantic Hakka Village Tour Designated Stores." After review and approval, they can become eligible stores.
Truly great deals, great fun, great shopping, great Hakka - let us enjoy a romantic Hakka getaway together! For related event information, please visit the Council's official website: http://www.hakka.gov.tw, or call the consultation hotline 0900-898-369.
