A 5.2-hectare agricultural land in the forest in Qishan District of Kaohsiung City has been illegally dumped millions of tons of converter stone since May 2013. Seven years later, the Kaohsiung Environmental Protection Bureau finally held a presentation in March this year (2020). The 10,000 largest material technology companies in the original landfill industry promised to complete the removal of one million tons of converter stone within three years.

However, no one would have expected that this piece of farmland would not be dug, and the more it was dug, the more terrifying it would be. In a briefing to the Kaohsiung City Council Security and Environmental Protection Committee today, Wanda Company said that the originally planned clearance capacity was 1 million tons, but after actual excavation and investigation, it was found that the total amount was as high as 4 million tons, in addition to converter stone. There are also a large number of construction wastes and unidentified wastes.

The concerned people went deep into the pollution site for the first time, only to clear more than 1,000 tons in three months.

Today, the Kaohsiung City Council Guard Elimination and Environmental Protection Committee inspected Qishan, especially the farmland where nearly one million tons of converter stone was illegally buried in the forest. The scene included city councillors, assistants, personnel of the Environmental Protection Bureau, personnel of the Bureau of Agriculture, local police, media, residents, and non-governmental organizations. More than 50 people stood in the sun, and the hot autumn tiger made everyone restless.
