本會於2023年4月16日假台北喜來登大飯店地下二樓喜廳舉行「祐生國政聯誼會」。在主持人黃晉英秘書長宣布後揭開當日活動序幕,在輕鬆、活潑的節目之下,隨即由主持人帶來重要訊息:「近年世界局勢丕變,高階晶片成為重要戰略物資,台灣因為擁有先進晶片的自製能力,因此在國際上舉足輕重;而台灣位處第一島鏈關鍵戰略位置,隨著國際局勢衝突加遽,軍工產業順勢而起,近期美國軍火代表團訪問台灣,也象徵了台美之間國防合作進一步提升。另外,氣候異變下氣溫異常升高,導致疫病傳播以及糧食減少。所以,我們自身要有所警覺,而今年度政府也通過《氣候變遷因應法》,納入2050淨零排放目標,並明定碳費徵收。祐生生活特組也將持續針對氣候異變及疫後未來趨勢課題持續研討因應方案,期望能為人類生存開啟新的道路。」
The April Archilife Public Policy Communion of 2023 was held on April 16, 2023. After a series of relaxing and fun activities, Secretary General Huang Chin-ying made the following announcement, "The world has changed dramatically over the past few years, and high-end chips have become critical strategic materials. Taiwan's ability to produce its own cutting-edge chips gives it a prominent place on the global stage. Additionally, with Taiwan's location in a prime strategic position in the first island chain, the military industry has capitalized on the trend created by the escalating international conflicts. Defense cooperation between Taiwan and the United States has recently expanded with the visit of a delegation of American defense industry representatives. Temperatures have risen abnormally due to climate change, which can lead to epidemics and food shortages. For this reason, keeping a watchful eye is essential, and the government also passed the "Climate Change Response Act" this year, which sets the net zero emission target for 2050 and defines the carbon fee collection in detail. In an effort to pave a new path for human survival, the Archilife Living Special Team will continue to discuss response plans."
緊接著進行專題演講,由國政委員孫瑞穗小姐主講「ESG、永續及淨零城市」。主講人首先表示經濟發展過程中所產製的溫室氣體,造成地球暖化、升溫,嚴重危害生態。因此各國氣候變遷減碳目標,將從碳達峰、碳中和、淨零到負排碳。主講人接著介紹國際協商歷程,從京都議定書、巴黎協議,一直到格拉斯哥氣候協議達成2050年實現淨零碳排的共識。而台灣2050淨零轉型,包含轉型策略:能源、產業、生活及社會,以及治理基礎:科技研發及氣候法制。接著提到目前新北市、台北及台中由CDP評鑑為淨零城市A級,主講人以新北市為例,介紹該市具體作為,也希望未來能持續與祐生成員分享此議題。
Next on the schedule was the keynote speech. First, Ms. Sun Ruei-suei presented a speech on the "ESG, Sustainability, and Net Zero City". The speaker started by saying that rising temperatures and global warming are a dire threat to the environment because of greenhouse gases released due to economic development. As a result, countries' climate change goals to reduce carbon emissions will range from "carbon peaking" to "carbon neutrality" to "net zero" to "negative" carbon emissions. The speaker then went on to discuss the international negotiation process that led to the agreement to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050. This process included the Kyoto Protocol, the Paris Agreement, and the Glasgow Climate Pact. The net-zero transformation of Taiwan by 2050 includes energy, industry, life, and social transformation strategies, as well as the governance bases: technological R&D and a climate legal system. According to the CDP's most recent net-zero rankings, New Taipei City, Taipei City, and Taichung City are all considered A-list cities. The speaker used New Taipei City as an illustration, highlighting the specific practices of New Taipei City, to continue to discuss the issue with Archilife members.
接著由國政委員周裕清先生主講「21世紀新國病『糖尿病』」。主講人首先說明糖尿病為身體無法自行調控血中的葡萄糖濃度,導致血糖過高,典型症狀為食慾增加、異常口渴、排尿次數增加及體重異常減輕等。主講人表示,糖尿病最令人擔憂為其併發症,恐侵蝕全身器官的健康,有許多洗腎患者即為糖尿病所導致。所以,預防糖尿病有三大重點:定期健康檢查、規律運動及均衡飲食,也就是注重預防保健醫學。而罹患糖尿病需做好自我健康管理,包含定期檢測及按時服藥。主講人也呼籲大家,落實分級醫療以節省國家醫療支出,維持良好生活型態常保健康。
Next, Mr. Chou Yu-ching spoke on "Diabetes, a New National Disease in the 21st Century". The speaker began by defining diabetes as the body's inability to regulate blood glucose levels, which causes blood glucose levels to rise. Typical symptoms include an increase in appetite, thirst, urination, and weight loss, among others. According to the speaker, the complications of diabetes are the most problematic aspect of the disease, which is feared to deteriorate the health of all organs. Numerous patients undergoing dialysis are diabetic. Therefore, there are three focuses of diabetes prevention: regular checkups, regular exercise, and a balanced diet, which emphasizes preventive medicine. Individuals with diabetes must practice proper self-care, including periodic testing and dosing. Additionally, the speaker urges everyone to implement graded medical care to reduce national medical costs, maintain healthy lifestyles, and preserve health.
接著由國政委員姚維正先生主講「COVID-19疫情和新科技進展/微嵌合-親子間終生羈絆」。主講人首先表示影響大家三年多的COVID-19疫情已準備落幕,為了防堵疫情,各種疫苗以前所未見的速度因應而生,包含mRNA疫苗、DNA疫苗、蛋白質疫苗、減毒疫苗等。主講人表示除了支持性療法,目前也有藥物可供治療,如莫納皮拉韋及瑞德西韋等。而診斷方式有核酸、抗原及抗體檢測。接著主講人提到「鑲嵌現象」,指在同一個生物體身上,同時擁有兩種或更多具有不同基因型細胞,在親子之間的表現,則是母親擁有小孩某部分基因,而小孩也擁有母親某部分基因,形成親子間的終生羈絆,主講人也感佩母親生育的辛勞,並祝福所有的母親。
Next, Mr. Yao Wei-cheng spoke on "COVID-19 Pandemic and Progress of New Technologies/Micro Chimerism-Lifelong Bond between Parents and Children". The first thing the speaker said was that the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, which has lasted for over three years, is finally coming to an end. Numerous vaccines, including mRNA, DNA, protein, and attenuated vaccines, have been developed at an unprecedented rate to combat the pandemic. The speaker then stated that in addition to supportive therapy, the virus can now be treated with medications such as monapiravir and remdesivir, and diagnostic tests include tests on nucleic acids, antigens, and antibodies. The speaker went on to discuss the "mosaic phenomenon" in which a single organism has two or more genotypes. In terms of parent-child expression, a mother carries a portion of her child's genetic material, and a child carries a portion of the mother's genes, creating a lifelong bond between the parent and child. The speaker also expresses appreciation for the mother's hard work during childbirth and sends his warm wishes to all mothers everywhere.
演講完畢,黃晉英秘書長代表基金會致贈謝禮予主講人。接著在與會者紛紛利用「餵豬時間」提出個人意見與看法交流後,圓滿地結束四月份國政聯誼會。
After the speech, Secretary General Huang Chin-ying presented a gift to the speakers on behalf of the foundation. Then, attendees expressed and exchanged their opinions and views during the piggy hour. The April Archilife Public Policy Communion ended smoothly.
