experiences around the globe, garbage processing shall be guided to a new future, although
through different paths, of no wasted trash and total recycling of every resource. To obtain
this goal we must first carry out the three laws of “reduction, reuse and recycling”. And the
policy of pay-as-you-throw fees is one of the possible ways to achieve this goal. This policy
also has its economic inducement through garbage sorting, recycling and user-paid status.

researching cases of past implementation of this policy between 2008 and 2010, the time
when Taipei County hasn’t upgraded to New Taipei city. I had partially taken part in the
advancement of this policy, so I would like to take this opportunity to analyze and discuss the
matters of the execution of pay-as-you-throw fees in Taipei County, and by further
exchanging thoughts and sharing experiences to maximize its value.
