Ecological engineering methods adopted in Taiwan to not only restore sites damaged by natural disasters such as typhoons and earthquakes, but also ensure ecological sustainability, are very innovative, according to foreign experts attending an international conference sponsored by the Public Construction Commission (PCC) yesterday in Taipei.
The two-day 2004 International Conference on Eco-Technology is the largest-ever in this field held in Taiwan. Yesterday, the venue of the conference, organized by the National Taipei University of Technology (NTUT), was filled with more than 1,000 eco-technology foreign and local experts from governmental agencies, private research organizations and universities.
According to PCC Vice Chairman Kuo Ching-chiang (???), selected foreign invitees have an excellent international reputation in eco-technology related fields, from whom Taiwan can glean up-to-date knowledge in order to further improve the quality of construction carried out locally under the concept of ecological sustainability.
