Amazing Kung-Fu Puppets From Taiwan
Footage of Taiwanese glove puppetry (Potehi or Budaixi) filmed in Yunlin, Taiwan for PuppetVision: The Movie, a feature length documentary about puppeteers and puppetry around the world that is scheduled to be released in 2015.
Potehi is a traditional form of glove puppetry that is performed throughout Taiwan. The Taiwanese artists who operate these puppets are remarkably skilled technical puppeteers who perform in a style that is unlike anything seen in the West.
The Taiwanese puppeteers who appear in this video are (in order of appearance):
Master Chong Jen-pi (鍾任壁)
A-Zon Chen Han-zon (阿-忠)
Master Huang Shih-chin (黃世志)
Special thanks to the volunteers and staff of The Yunlin International Puppetry Festival and Yunlin Storyhouse in Huwei, Yunlin, Taiwan for all their assistance, support and friendship.
Jianguo Village in Huwei Taiwan, abandoned Japanese Village, built in 1943
Built in 1943, the abandoned Japanese Village still amazes me AND among lots of other things the Japanese used to train Kamikaze Pilots here. I have also been told of a recent 'murder' at the location.

Central Taiwan faces land subsidence issues that could affect transportation safety and cr...
Land subsidence used to be a problem that was mostly confined to coastal areas. But over the past decade, inland land subsidence has become a major issue, particularly in Yunlin and Changhua counties. This phenomenon not only threatens the safety of the high-speed rail but also indicates a more sinister danger pertaining to local groundwater tables and agriculture. At Yunlin’s Tuku Township, National Cheng Kung University is working with the Water Resources Agency to develop a land subsidence prevention group. Changes to magnetic rings in monitoring wells identify the degree of land subsidence.Chen Chien-mingCivil EngineerLand subsidence affects entire areas. This makes it difficult to figure out the degree of subsidence of a particular location.A decade ago, an FTV episode of “Hall of Dissent” addressed the issue of coastal land subsidence. During the course of the investigation, one local expert said the same problems could occur inland. Liu Chih-hsiITRI Environmental Research LabNew monitoring data shows that the Yunlin area is experiencing subsidence due to pumping. The long-term, slow nature of subsidence means that few people can actually feel it.Though it’s difficult to see, Yunlin’s Tuku and Huwei Townships as well as Changhua’s Xizhou and Xihu are experiencing subsidence which is more serious than coastal regions.Chen Ching-jhenTaiwan Academy of Ecology Over the past few years, torrential rains in Dounan, Huwei and Tuku left these areas flooded with water up to 1 or 2 meters deep. Chen Chien-mingCivil EngineerInland subsidence can be detected by post-rain water accumulation in areas that didn’t use to have stagnant water. Now we are seeing water accumulation in more places.In the past 15 years, Yunlin and Changhua have seen subsidence reaching up to 2 meters. This could cause more flooding concerns. Lee Hong-yuanNTU Civil Engineering Dept.In Taiwan today, rice barns can seen from Changhua, Yunlin and Chiayi to Pingtung. These are the areas where land subsidence is taking place. Climate change has already led this soil to experience some degree of salinization, but excessive groundwater pumping is exacerbating this problem. If we continue to pursue this route, in another 10 to 20 years we won’t be able to grow these crops.It’s hard to believe that the subsidence problem doesn’t have anything to do with the 1,200 wells in Yunlin and Changhua.Lee Hong-yuanNTU Civil Engineering Dept.Who owns some of the deep wells? They belong to the Taiwan Water Company, the Water Resources Agency, Taiwan Sugar, schools, prisons and factories.Lai Chien-hsinWater Resources AgencyIn the past, we found there were approximately 1,200 deep wells. Over the last several years, some 30 to 40 percent have been sealed.Beginning in 2011, the government began to seal deep wells in Yunlin and Chiayi, including some 350 owned by the water company.Hsu Ruei-ming Taiwan Water Corp.To cooperate with groundwater management for the area we sealed this well. If we face a drought and experience third-stage water restrictions with insufficient water supply then we can make a report to the Water Resources Agency and open the well again.These 350 wells extract 150 million tons of water each year to supply households and industries. If they are sealed, many fear there will be no water for household use. Lai Chien-hsin Water Resources AgencyOriginally, in the Changhua and Yunlin area, a high percentage of people relied on groundwater for tap supplies. But now we are changing to cleaner water supplies, such as Hushan Reservoir or the newly completed Niaozueitan Artificial Lake. Hushan will mainly supply Yunlin while Niaozueitan will supply Changhua. Surface water will be able to supply tap water in the two counties.Some wonder if sealing off these wells can really stop land subsidence. Along the Yunlin and Changhua high-speed rail route there are some 310,000 private wells mainly used by farmers to irrigate rice fields.Liao Ming-chinFarmerNearly half of the 120 days during the first rice planting require water. Since I plant soy beans, I only need to irrigate four times.Beginning in 2014, the Council of Agriculture told farmers to convert to crops that can be grown in dry fields where severe subsidence was a problem.Liao Ming-chinFarmer(Soy bean income) is relatively good because we use organic growing methods. Our costs are higher and we work a little more, but prices are good. There are also subsidies for having converted crops, for organic farming and to purchase organic fertilizers.Though the government may be doing what it can to solve this problem, some believe it isn’t doing enough.Chen Ching-chenTaiwan Ecological Research Center Now our problem is that industrial zones are expanding. The combination of new industrial zones and traditional industrial zones is creating high demand for water.Lee Hong-yuanNTU Civil Engineering Dept.The Ministr...

Another hot russian spy? Woman held in US for trying to smuggle rifle sights
A 24-year old woman has been arrested in the US for allegedly trying to smuggle night-vision equipment out of the US in a case media have compared to the recent Russian spy scandal. The equipment was confiscated from Anna Fermanova, a US citizen born in Latvia, at New York's JFK airport by federal agents in March after a tip off. Such scopes require a federal license before they can be exported. Fermanova was detained as she returned to the US after spending four months in Russia. She has denied the charges, saying the scopes were for her husband to use when hunting.

Traditional glove puppetry (Budaixi)
掌中乾坤 傳統布袋戲
Glove puppetry is also known as Budaixi, and can usually be seen as part of temple activities for festivals or deity birthdays.
There are two parts to a glove puppetry (Budaixi) performance: the puppeteer performs on stage, while musicians play backstage, using music to control the atmosphere.
Although many new types of puppet theater have emerged, including large scale, flamboyant glove puppetry, which has an army of loyal fans, the small and exquisite form of Traditional glove puppetry (Budaixi) is still one of the most representative forms of Taiwanese folk art.
Mercedes-Benz driver murdered in his car
A Mercedes-Benz driver was murdered in southern Taiwan yesterday morning, leaving seven bullet holes in his car. According to police, the victim is 48-year-old Lin Jun-ji, who runs a motel with his friend in Kaohsiung and privately operates pro baseball betting and illegal lotteries.
At 1am yesterday, Lin and his friends went drinking at a Vietnamese tavern. They partied until 5am. Lin then drove a Vietnamese girl to another party. About 10 minutes later, Lin stopped for a traffic light. A motorcyclist fired seven bullets into the car. Lin died immediately. The Vietnamese woman, however, was so scared she couldn't bare calling for help until the murderer left. The police rushed to the site and found four empty bullet shells. The five bullet holes in the driver seat's window indicated the bullets were fired through the passenger's side.
It is election season and religious activities have taken place as well. Neighbors thought the noise was due to firecrackers. The Vietnamese girl was too horrified to describe the incident. She thought the noise came from the victim setting off firecrackers.
According to the police, a nearby CCTV cameras was inoperable due to the Wan-Nian River restoration project, so it couldn't pick up the details of the murder. The shooting is believed to be related to gambling disputes and police are now searching for the murderer.

725 Taiwan News Briefs
And now we take a look at some other stories from around Taiwan.Bikes Banned from Paid Parking SpotsIn light of the recent oBike parking space controversy in Taipei, where oBikes have been found parked haphazardly around the city and even in paid scooter parking spaces, the Taipei City Department of Transportation has announced that from August 1, all bicycles found parked in the 10,000 or so paid scooter parking spaces in Xinyi Shopping District, Neihu Technology Park and six other major areas in the city will be towed away. Agricultural Campaign in YunlinIn an effort to alleviate the shortage of laborers in the agricultural sector, the Council of Agriculture has recruited 140 people with agricultural backgrounds for a new campaign in Yunlin County. The participants will be dispatched by local farmers’ associations to the farms where they are needed, and will get hands-on experience as they work in the fields. Wang Gung Seaside CarnivalCentral Taiwan’s annual midsummer extravaganza, the Wang Gung seaside carnival, is set to kick off at the beginning of August. This year, 14 local elementary and middle schools have come together to organize the event, which will feature a parade, a fireworks show, a local food fair, and a music festival. Changhua County commissioner Wei Ming-ku says he hopes many people will come to enjoy the breathtaking sunsets and famous local oyster dishes.
Farming apprenticeships revive agriculture in Yunlin
For years, the aging of rural farming communities has been a big issue in Taiwan, and there are constant calls for more young people to return to the land. But many of those who answer the call come across the same problems: technical difficulties, a lack of training, and market barriers. These returning natives often find that enthusiasm alone is not enough. In Yunlin County, though, a farmer training school is giving new farmers a leg-up through Farming Apprenticeships, in which seasoned farmers give new hands the benefit of a lifetime of experience through practical, hands-on classes. Our Sunday special report.Most of these students at this farmer training school in Yunlin are over 50 years old. Here they’re growing peanuts and sweet potatoes. The crops are ready to harvest and the students are raring to go.One of the teachers at the school, Wang Han, has been working the fields for decades. The reason he’s willing to spend his time teaching here is because he’s very sensitive to the problems of Taiwan’s rural farming villages.Wang HanFarmer training school teacherI come to teach farming because I think agricultural knowledge needs to be handed down. Everybody has their own unique experiences, and if those experiences aren’t handed down, that legacy will be cut off. Farming is a very broad field. It can accommodate all kinds of students from every different walk of life.The farmer training school emphasizes the apprenticeship system: every student chooses an expert teacher to follow, and goes out to work in the fields under their tutelage. One student, Wu Kun-chou, runs an umbrella factory for his day job. But in the early mornings, before the factory opens, he comes out to the fields to study.Wu Kun-chouFarming studentYou dig the soil, plant sweet potatoes and corn, and before you know it, you can do something you couldn’t do before. You can plant the fields and get rid of the pests.There’s another reason the school has introduced apprenticeships. Some young farmers who decide to “go back to the land” are full of passion but lacking in skills. It’s a recipe for disaster.Hsu Yong-yuYunlin County Agriculture DepartmentAt the moment, with the poor economic climate in the wider environment, some young people want to go back to their rural hometowns. By setting up the farmer training school, we want to start to teach them on the level of basic knowledge and skills. That’s the only way to prevent the funds they invest from going to waste.Another teacher at the school, Liang Yu-lung, specializes in papayas. This term, he has three apprentices.Today he’s teaching the students how to remove some of the flowers from the papaya tree while it’s in bloom, so the papaya fruit will grow longer and bigger. Knowledge like this has typically been passed on from the lived experience of a teacher. It’s the greatest advantage of the apprenticeship system.Liang’s three students vary greatly in age and in background. One of them - 25 year-old Li I-chun - is typical of young farmers who have gone “back to the land.” After graduating from university he worked in another sector for two years before deciding to study farming – a choice that provoked an uproar in his family.Li I-chun Farming studentI think that as a young person going back to the land, there are opportunities, but there are also pressures and risks. Because of course, when you go back to the countryside to farm, the first thing you experience is that your stable income is cut off. In a factory your income is really pretty stable, and you have annual leave and public holidays off.Figures from the Yunlin County Agriculture Department show that 70 percent of the school’s graduates do indeed go on to work in farming.So these apprenticeships can certainly help create more opportunities for new farmers who want to get their foot in the door. But there may also be new problems created by the system.Li I-chunFarming StudentIf everyone is planting the same crops and doing it really well, how will that work?The issue Li mentions is Taiwanese agriculture’s flawed system of production and marketing. Farmers are often exploited by a whole chain of distributors. By helping young people to return to the land and start farming, the government may also be introducing them to a tough life of struggling to make ends meet, and being taken advantage of.Liang Yu-lungFarmer training school teacherIf you encourage young people to return to the land, you must have a whole policy in place for that. You have to get them to the point where they can sell what they produce – and not in Taiwan, but overseas. We must export. The training from the government is flawed.Apart from being able to grow crops, knowing how to sell them is also a crucial field of study.Chang Ching-chengFarming StudentMost of all we hope we farmers can grow good quality produce, and then see whether we can start our own...
Age no barrier for teens who bring change to countryside classrooms
In Yunlin County, there''s a group of high school students who sacrifice their weekends and summer vacation to volunteer as tutors and counselors for kids in a rural area. Being young and inexperienced, these teenage teachers were written off by many as unqualitified, but they now have their teachers and parents convinced of their commitment to the children. Through the experience, the high school students are realizing their mission to make a difference in society and to give rural children a new perspective on life.It’s the end of the school year. Wang Ju-hsuan, a rising senior at Tou Liu Senior High, walks out of her school and heads home. She lives in Dapi Township and has to commute to Douliu City every day. The contrast between her rural town and the city is as stark as the disparity in the education offered in the two places. Her home is surrounded by rice paddies, and educational resources are sparse. Lacking support, Wang supplemented her coursework by devouring large quantities of English reading materials, and she tested into an experimental language class.Wang Ju-hsuanTou Liu Senior High studentDapi is in a place that’s neither rural nor urban. It doesn’t have the convenience of a big city, and it isn’t eligible for resources allocated to rural areas.The people of Dapi work either on farms or in the industrial sector. Many are economically disadvantaged, and custodial grandparenting is common.Wang Ju-hsuanTou Liu Senior High studentI thought to myself, why not go back to my home village and teach the kids English? So I asked some of my friends from junior high and elementary school if they would join me and help out, and we held an English summer camp. By the end of it, our team was born.The team is called ACE. It’s made up of mostly high schoolers, with a few junior high students.Wang Ju-hsuanTou Liu Senior High studentWhen I was in junior high, I took up judo. During matches, you''d hear the contestants yell out “ace” to declare that they were the best. So we named ourselves ACE because we hoped to be a winning team. The A stands for active, C is courage, and E is extraordinary.Hung Shih-lin Tou Liu Senior High studentAt first I thought it was just babysitting elementary kids and giving them something to do in the summer at the camp. But later I realized that her main purpose had to do with caring for our society.It''s the first day of summer vacation. Wang and her team are busy leading activities, carrying out their duties as members of Team ACE.Wang Ju-hsuanTou Liu Senior High studentOur tasks are divided just like how responsibility is divided in an organization with various departments. We have an art promotion section, marketing section, and even an education section since our main mission is camp- and education-related activities. Li Ying-hao Yunlin County Jiaxing Elementary SchoolWhen they’re learning at the camp, the children are very bold about going up to any big brother or big sister and volunteering an answer to questions. They don’t have anxiety about giving the wrong answer or not performing well. They dare to try new things. That’s something we don’t see in a conventional classroom setting.At first, these young teachers had trouble convincing parents of their qualifications. When Wang Ju-hsuan held her first English camp, she was just 15, and that worked against her.Wang Ju-hsuanTou Liu Senior High studentAt that time, many parents were unwilling to send their kids to our camp. My young age deterred them. They wondered if my English was good enough to teach their kids.Getting a venue to hold the event was also a challenge.Chou I-yu Hu-Wei Senior High studentIn the beginning, we couldn’t find a school willing to let us use their facilities. They probably thought we were not good enough. So we could only rent a space at the community activity center.To win over the skeptical parents, Wang pulled out all the stops.Wang Ju-hsuanTou Liu Senior High studentI made registration forms myself and took them to the kids’ homes. I then introduced our activities to the parents. I think at that time, making a personal visit was quite persuasive. Thanks to her persistence, the rural endeavor had a chance to take root. Her team of teachers grew from nine to the current 25.Chou I-yu Hu-Wei Senior High studentBy working alongside her, I can discover new aspects of myself and see the world from a new perspective.Now with more experience under its belt, Team ACE runs a smooth operation that holds regular meetings, assesses how effective its classes are, and even looks into new topics that might enrich the curriculum.Since all ACE activities are free of charge, Wang writes proposals to solicit funding, drawing on the ideas her team develops during brainstorming sessions.Wang Ju-hsuanTou Liu Senior High studentMany families are just scraping by, so in order to attract the kids and incite their interest,...
Young budaixi puppet master attempts to revive traditional art
Have you ever seen a Chinese opera performed with glove puppets? The art of budaixi puppet theatre was once one of the most popular forms of entertainment in Taiwan. But since the 1960s, its traditional orchestra and lengthy narration have lost out against TV and the internet. One young artist is bucking the trend, trying to revive the traditional art. His new budaixi troupe has incorporated a number of innovations into the familiar old traditions, attracting new audiences in the process. Our Sunday special report. In the courtyard of a large building, a young man skips about, puppets in hand, narrating a play. Twenty-seven-year-old KuoChien-fu is doing everything he can to revive the 267-year-old art of budaixipuppet theatre.KuoChien-fuBudaixi troupe masterFifty years ago there was almost no entertainment, so of course there were loads of people going to watch budaixi. But with the changing times, there are more and more kinds of entertainment on offer so of course the audience has gotten smaller.Budaixi was brought to Taiwan in the Qing dynasty with the influx of Min Chinese immigrants from Fujian and Guangdong. At first, the plays were based on classic books and historical novels, and were accompanied by nanguan orchestral music. But by the 1920s, martial arts novels had become much more popular themes, along with the derivate “Jinguang” style, emphasizing sound and light effects while using popular music. With the spread of modern media on the TV and internet, the audience for traditional budaixi performances collapsed.KuoChien-fuBudaixi troupe masterWhy can’t we develop new traditions, or new “classic” styles from “traditional” budaixi? I believe this is also an avenue open to us.KuoChien-fufelt that in order to find new ways to attract modern audiences to budaixi, he had to start from the basics. So he took an apprenticeship under Chen Hsi-huang, son of the great budaixi master Li Tien-lu.Kuo’s first move was to introduce more detailed movements into the puppet’s repertoire, as well as tiny lifelike props, to help audiences understand the plot. In traditional budaixi, many plot points are explained in long and rambling dialogue and then skipped over in small, abstract gestures.KuoChien-fuBudaixi troupe masterIn the old story of Wu Song slaying the tiger, traditionally it was all symbolic, so when the waiter enters, he takes out the drink, puts in on the table, and now see, there’s nothing at all on the table. When he’s put it down, Wu Song does the same, he picks up the ‘air’ and drinks it, just these two movements. In the new version, he can pour the drink, look at it, drink it. It’s finished.He also realized that while the traditional art emphasized the unity of the puppet master and his puppet, nowadays most puppeteers don’t know how to paint their own puppets’ heads, part of the traditional job description. So he conducted his own research into the features of each kind of character, and started to paint his own puppets.KuoChien-fuBudaixi troupe masterIt makes it easier for our emotions, feelings, our spirit, to enter the figure. Because you have to like how it looks first, in order to give the audience a better performance.But his innovations have also attracted criticism from many of budaixi’s older fans.KuoChien-fuBudaixi troupe masterSome audiences prefer the old style, and they think I’m messing it up. Sometimes they even take me to task in public. We reduce the spoken parts so that more audiences can watch and understand. We don’t want to tell the story through the words. But lots of older viewers think “You obviously aren’t good enough, that’s why you don’t do the speeches, you can’t read the texts so you cut them out.”The audience for traditional budaixi is aging, and Kuo hopes to attract new viewers to the genre. He has even experimented with bringing the puppeteer out from behind the curtain to become an onstage actor.Lai Yung-tingPuppeteerIn the performance, it’s almost as if you’re a street performer. It makes children think, “Oh, so THIS is what Taiwanese budaixi is like! You can also do it like this!”As a child, Kuo loved to watch Peking opera with his elders. The path he’s taken, of learning budaixi and founding his own troupe, has been driven completely by his own passion. But with no family background in budaixi, he’s sometimes lacked resources. And even his own teacher is pessimistic about the future of budaixi.KuoChien-fuBudaixi troupe masterI don’t have any of the experience or history of established troupes, or the physical resources. Everything started from zero.Chen Hsi-huangMaster puppeteer and teacher of KuoChien-fuIt’s a terrible moment. Budaixi appears to be about to disappear. I also worry about what they’re going to do after they’ve learned the skills.Hsu Shu-huiMother of KuoChien-fuBut Chien-fuonce said, “Don’t worry, Mum, I’m not going to starve. But I’m not going to...

Typhoon Soudelor from our 8th floor apartment
We live in central Taiwan in Yunlin County. These clips were taken on Saturday August 8th in the afternoon.
Cinema of China
The Cinema of China is one of three distinct historical threads of Chinese-language cinema together with the Cinema of Hong Kong and the Cinema of Taiwan.
Cinema was introduced in China in 1896 and the first Chinese film, The Battle of Dingjunshan, was made in 1905, with the film industry being centered on Shanghai in the first decades. The first sound film, Sing-Song Girl Red Peony, using the sound-on-disc technology, was made in 1931. The 1930s, considered the first golden period of Chinese cinema, saw the advent of the Leftist cinematic movement and the dispute between Nationalists and Communists was reflected in the films produced. After the Japanese invasion of China and the occupation of Shanghai, the industry in the city was severely curtailed, with filmmakers moving to Hong Kong, Chongqing and other places, starting a Solitary Island period in Shanghai, referring to the city's foreign concessions, with the remaining filmmakers working there. Princess Iron Fan, the first Chinese animated feature film, was released at the end of this period. It influenced wartime Japanese animation and later Tezuka Osamu. After being completely engulfed by the occupation in 1941, and until the end of the war in 1945, the film industry in the city was under Japanese control.
