renovation visit
A ruling-party lawmaker is pushing for ATMs at two remote island airports in Taitung County, saying they are the only outlying island airports in Taiwan without them.
The call comes after D-P-P legislator Chen Ying (陳瑩) visited Orchid Island (蘭嶼) yesterday to inspect ongoing renovation works at the local airport.
She noted that the nearest ATM to the airport is about 2.6 kilometers away, creating hardship for travelers and residents needing cash.
Chen said the Civil Aeronautics Administration and Chunghwa Post have both agreed to install ATMs in the new terminals.
The Orchid Island temporary terminal is nearing completion at a cost of 299-million NT, with Green Island's terminal due in June at 285-million NT.
Both permanent terminals are scheduled for completion in December 2027.
