County

 * A thorough reorganization and redivisioning of the island was now necessitated. In former days, Formosa comprised one complete prefecture, four districts and three sub-prefectures. Now the island became a province with four prefectures (Taipeh, Taiwan, Tainan, and Taitung), eleven districts, and three sub-prefectures.
 * In 1987 and 1988, 12 deaths among prisoners were questioned by Taiwan human rights groups. Incidents occurred in prisons and detention centers under the jurisdiction of both civil and military authorities. In one instance, eight prison guards were convicted in July for torturing to death a Taitung detention center prisoner. They received sentences ranging from 10 months to 4 years.
 * During the 1990s the annual landings of sailfish off Taiwan ranged between 600 and 2000 metric tons, of which approximately 54% came from waters off Taitung (eastern Taiwan).

City

 * Early in the morning the group left by train for Taitung, the port of exit from where they would take a boat over the choppy ocean.
 * The "other cities" of Taiwan have their unique attractions: Hualien and Taitung on the remote east coast, quiet and friendly.
 * Before the widening of the eastern line, trains from Taipei could only travel as far as Hualien. Passengers going on to Taitung, had to either change trains or take a bus, which meant an additional three and a half hours journey.
