Is the developer advancing step by step, turning Maoao Bay into a yacht port? Magang's literary capital review has not been passed, and the future of the northeast coast is uncertain.

A dark cloud was developed in the northeast corner. In order to resist the large-scale development and purchase of land by consortia, "Magang" in Taiwan's extreme East fishing Village applied to register the cultural assets "settlement buildings". After the New Taipei City Government held a literary review conference, the results were announced yesterday (5). The censors rejected the residents' applications for "lack of individual uniqueness, lack of cultural historical context and texture integrity".

After the announcement of the results, residents could not hide their disappointment and loneliness. 22 households jointly applied for a statement saying that only Magang and Maoao were left in the last traditional stone house fishing village in the northeast corner, and they did not understand why the censors ignored the crisis of cultural loss of the fishing village in the northeast corner. Residents said that although the Bills Committee believes that Magang fishing Village has no cultural characteristics, residents still hope that the marine culture and ecology of Magang can be passed on.

In recent years, the nearby Maoao fishing village, which is dependent on Magang's lips and teeth, has also launched a campaign to protect the fishing village in the face of large-scale land acquisition by development companies and a century-old fishing village changing its yacht port development plan. Behind the confrontation between residents and development units, it is in fact the conflict between the two regional functions of "marine conservation" and "tourism development" in the northeast corner, which urgently needs more public attention.
