Survey finds happiest cities and counties
A recent survey by a local magazine found four metropolises and an outlying islet to be the "happiest" cities and counties in the nation.

According to the Sept. 24 issue of the Common Wealth magazine, the happiest city in Taiwan is Taipei City, followed by Hsinchu City, Tainan City, Taichung City and Penghu County.

The "happy city survey" evaluated 23 cities and counties in Taiwan and its outlying islets in five aspects: economic power, environmental protection, local government efficiency, education and social welfare.

Top four of the first five happiest cities are commercial and industrialized cities. However, Penghu County, the least populated of the 23 cities and counties, managed to rank fifth. One place that made the most progress over the past year is Taipei County, catapulting from 21st to 13th. Kaohsiung City did pretty well, too, advancing from 13th place to seventh.

In the aspect of economic power, Hsinchu City, where the high-tech industry-clad Hsinchu Science Park is located, ranks first because it has the highest saving rate per household and 38.4 percent of its citizens believe that it is easy to find a job in the next three years.

The top 10 of the environmental protection category are mostly offshore or agricultural areas with Hualien County, Penghu County and Kaohsiung City ranking as the top three. Hsinchu City ranked at the top in government efficiency. The survey found that nearly 70 percent of its residents believe that the city government is very efficient. The other four of the top fives are Taoyuan County, Penghu County, Taichung City and Taipei City.

Regarding education, Taipei City ranks first, followed by Hsinchu City, Taipei County, Taoyuan County and Taichung City. Taipei City enjoys the richest education resources in the nation. In Hsinchu City, 59 percent of residents believe the mayor cares a lot about education for the young, while Taoyuan County invested the nation's highest percentage of its budget in education, science and culture, at 46.69 percent.

On social welfare, Chiayi City and Hualien County pay the most attention to social welfare among the 23 surveyed.

People 'anxious' when cut off from internet   telegraph.co.uk/ By Harry Wallop

People are more likely to feel "anxious" when cut off from the internet or their mobile phone than feel "liberated", according to a survey.

Staying in a place with no mobile phone coverage, or suffering from the internet going down, is a cause of high stress and anxiety for an increasing number of people, the study suggested.

As many as 85 per cent of full-time mothers always have the internet turned on at home, while a third of people said they no longer felt any sense of guilt about always being "connected" either by having their mobile phone or computer turned on.

The results indicated that 36 per cent of people were anxious about keeping in touch with their family if they were disconnected, compared with 29 per cent who felt they were liberated.

When it came to work 29 per cent cent said they were anxious when cut off, compared with 28 per cent saying they felt liberated.

The survey, undertaken for Virgin Media by the analysts Future Laboratory, identified a type of consumer who "switched on to switch off."

James Brook, psychologist, said: "These people know that, the modern world waits for no one and that taking a break from technology means potentially missing out.”

At any time we might miss an important email or a phone call, an old friend may try to get in touch via Facebook or breaking news may come in. If they feel that they cannot keep up with these things because they are not connected, it will naturally have a negative impact on their emotional wellbeing and peace of mind.”
