Taiwan’s Pathological Pro-Colonial Culture Parks: Squandering Funds to Reconstruct Old Ruins from the Japanese Occupation

A fierce critique of the recent massive restoration of Japanese occupation-era ruins and the construction of 'culture parks' in Taiwan. The author views this phenomenon as a pathological 'pro-colonial psychology' and a sarcastic contrast to the DPP's 'Taiwanese Subjectivity.' The article criticizes these projects as a waste of public funds, lacking integrated design, and feeling restrictive like the Martial Law era, suggesting they exist primarily for financial kickbacks.
