The Influence of Environmental Consciousness on Willingness to Pay\uef\ubcA Case of Cheng-Cing Lake Tourists
No full text"User charges " is a term that has been widely known by the public in recent years, that is, users who have enjoyed a certain resource, product or service must bear related costs. "Cheng-Cing Lake Scenic Area" has been open to Kaohsiung citizens for free admission since September 18, 2013. However, in recent years, due to the rising trend of "environmental consciousness", certain free to visit scenic or recreational areas were developed a "payment mechanism". Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to explore whether tourists have the willingness to pay under current policy, and what is the price? Is it related to the environmental consciousness of tourists?
This study uses a questionnaire survey method to explore the relationship between the environmental consciousness on willingness to pay of tourists. The payment card format is designed in the questionnaire to understand the price tourists will pay. Through convenience sampling there were 400 questionnaires distributed to tourists, with 390 questionnaires returned and valid. It is representing a return rate of 97.5%. This research uses SPSS statistical methods to conduct descriptive statistical analysis of the questionnaire, independent sample t-test, single factor analysis of variance, Pearson correlation analysis and regression analysis. It has been verified that\uef\ubc
1. Different background attributes of tourists (such as marital status, visiting frequency) have a partial influence on environmental consciousness.
2. Different background attributes of tourists (such as educational level, occupation, personal monthly incomes, whether citizens of Kaohsiung) influence the willingness of pay.
3. Tourists\ue2 environmental consciousness on willingness to pay has a positive correlation.
4. Kaohsiung citizens will pay NT52.12 for tickets when they visit Cheng-Cing Lake, tourists from other cities will pay NT83.22.
Finally, this study recommends that the Kaohsiung government should review the "Free Admission for Kaohsiung Citizens" policy. And the management agency of Cheng-Cing Lake can organize environmental education actively to raise the public\ue2s environmental consciousness

No full textInheritance and Innovation in the Traditional Jewelry Manufacturing Industry: A Case Study of Yan Cheng Metal Workshop
No full textTraditional crafts industries have been facing difficulties in passing on skills and businesses to the next generation. The major issue is how the inheritors can successfully take over and innovate the industry. Yan Cheng Metal Workshop, located in the Pier-2 art center in Kaohsiung, is a successful case of how a traditional crafts industry has been transformed into a cultural and creative business.
The Hong brothers, the founders of Yan Cheng Metal Workshop, were trained by their father and inherited his business. They have devoted themselves to creating a novel consumer experience focusing on customer skills training and a jewelry DIY production experience. During the golden era of the jewelry making industry in Xinle Street in Yancheng, their father was a jeweler at a jewelry store. Later, he was dedicated himself to metal jewelry crafts education, working as an teacher in vocational schools, as well serving as coach for Taiwan's national representatives in competitions. Later the Hong brothers also studied metal jewelry making. The elder brother, who as a student excelled in art and business management, is a certified Class B technician. While the younger brother was selected as Taiwan's national representative of metal jewelry craftsmen, specializes in metalwork techniques. Both of them participated in the city government's "The Return of Creative Talents Program" and founded Yan Cheng Metal Workshop in 2016.
In this paper, a brief summary of the transformation in inheritance of the metal jewelry-making crafts industry in Taiwan is presented. From the perspective of the politics of cultural work and crafts activities, the paper illustrates how the modern mentorship was transformed. It points out that a tipping point occurred between the 1980s and 1990s, when traditional apprenticeship was transformed into a new educational mode. The case study shows that the Hong brothers not only make a living by metal jewelry making, but are also dedicated to skills training, taking the jewelry metal crafts industry to a new level.
The unique characteristic of the cultural work of Yan Cheng Metal Workshop, combines sales with consumer \ue2self-manufacturing\ue2, developing an experience economy as well as the cultivation of the talents, making them different from other traditional metal craftsmen and jewelry shops whose production process and sale activities are separate. This is how they innovated their metal jewelry making business.
We found that the metal jewelry making business model has transformed from one generation to the next, especially with regard to how technique and know-how are now informally passed on and taught to the broader community. The differences are as follows. Firstly, traditional apprenticeship is replaced with a new combined teacher-student/consumer relationship. Second, the apprentices mainly learn their skills in tacit learning; however, the tacit knowledge is more explicit step-by-step instruction. Lastly, traditional metal artworks are made of gold while Yan Cheng Metal Workshop only use silver to produce their metal jewelry products. Moreover, the finished product has added value due to it's custom-made style and the consumer manufacturing experience
