Mayor’s Remarks:
1. Starting tomorrow (27th), the level-3 alert will be reduced to a level-2 alert. I ask all bureaus to carryout matters in accordance with the regulations under the level-2 alert. Please prioritize pandemic prevention while also placing an emphasis on economic development and people’s livelihoods.
2. Taiwan and other countries have recently been stricken with severe flooding. I offer my deepest sympathies for those affected by recent flooding. Tainan must learn from the example of others. I ask the Water Resources Bureau to carry on the promotion of water treatment projects and be disaster ready.
3. The Public Health Bureau should closely monitor possible cases of Dengue fever. I ask concerned departments, such as the Environmental Protection Bureau and Public Health Bureau to educate the public about Dengue fever prevention. Please immediately empty containers and drain puddles after heavy rainfall to prevent mosquito vectors from breeding.
4. On July 28, the Public Health Bureau will give a presentation to city council members. I ask departments that handle pandemic prevention and relief measures to be fully prepared and draft answers to likely questions. Should the questions raised by council members deviate from the truth, please clarify immediately and ask the Department of Information and International Relations to make immediate corrections with the press.
