Lin Man-Li, chairman of Taroko Fiber, pointed out that in recent years, Taroko has transformed from the textile industry to real estate development, and actively activated its own land assets, laid out commercial real estate and sightseeing and leisure business, and the most watched is the development of Kaohsiung MRT South Machinery Factory Park.
Joined hands with Kaohsiung City Government
At the end of 2012, Daluge Development signed a contract with Kaohsiung MRT and Kaohsiung Municipal Government to acquire a 35-year land lease right, aiming to build the first low-density street-building large-scale shopping mall and amusement park in Taiwan.
Hsu Yung-Chang said that the first phase of investment of more than NT$ 3.5 billion, has entered the stage of capital review, is expected to get the construction license at the end of this year, start construction early next year, and officially open at the end of 2015 and early 2016 at the earliest.
Hsu Yung-Chang emphasized that the case also cooperated with Japan’s Suzuka International Circuit and introduced the Suzuka Circuit operated by Honda, which not only symbolizes the two-pronged development of land development and tourism industry, but also the first Taiwan-Japan tourism industry cooperation project.

In addition to inviting Kaohsiung Mayor Chen Ju, representatives of Gaojie Company and President of Japan’s Suzuka Group Hiroshi Tsengda to attend the meeting, Suzuka Group mascots Kukira and Kilara will also attend the meeting.
Focus on real estate development
In addition to this playground, Taroko has purchased 890 pings of land in Shilin Beitou Science and Technology Park for 366 million yuan in 2010, and the project is expected to be redivided back to about 400 pings of land in 2016, when it will be considered for residential, commercial or industrial use, hoping to bring more industrial benefits.
