Abstract

This is a story of an old fisherman, a story about how fisher people fought against two big industrial groups to protect their rights, a story that our descendants on this land will not forget. Early in the morning on a day like any other ordinary day, Uncle Ga Ong (Chia-Wan Chen in Mandarin), a 64 year-old life-long resident of Chiku, arrived at the Chiku Coastal Protection Association, a self-help fishworkers’ organization, where he has voluntarily worked since its inception. He takes care of the association.
