He will cooperate with an eligible enterprise to introduce the most optimal business model into this area for enhancement of service quality of Kinmen tourism.

The theme for this development project is the tourism and leisure hotel.

The preliminary feasibility and public tender invitation for partnership will be conducted then for decision of selecting a partnership enterprise. It is expected that local tourism development will be benefited significantly.

The major conclusion from on-site survey yesterday is that the lands surrounding this construction are nationally-owned. It is planned to negotiate with the National Property Bureau to cede those lands for enhancing the integrity of this construction site. The surrounding private-owned lands can be obtained by means of negotiation procurement mechanism, land expropriation, or land exchange projects with the land owners so as to widen the roads linking to external traffic systems. Those proposals can be adopted as the alternatives for passage linking of this construction site.

The laws and acts relevant with investment in international tourism hotels are far more sophisticated that for normal tourism hotels, in addition to the complicated procedures of environment evaluation. County mayor Li indicated that it is not definitely required to apply for international tourism certification or license approval. The most important is the hotel service quality. The international hotel license is not that important. The service quality of this new hotel will meet international standards definitely. Such a measure could solve some problems more easily.
