I have only been to two countries in Asia, Taiwan and Japan. I love them both dearly. So much so I have been to Taiwan twice, and Japan four times. Watching this video highlights some of the cultural parallels between them. I know they do not have the best history, but I like hearing news stories on how they are supporting each other.
Cool, I first moved here (Chiayi) in May 2008! Our dates are pretty close. Of course, I moved back to Canada for a number of years before finally moving back here again...
Priority seat is maybe the big controversy of topics covered in this video. They are to encourage people to give their seats to those in need, definitely not mandatory. I've seen some elder citizens well in shape scold young people either in exhaustion or just not feel good for not giving their seats, but priority seats are for those in need, not for those in their twilight years. Some people are jerks, they don't age into esteemed elders, they just turn into old jerks.
Once a jerk, always a jerk! No matter what their age is! Good people no matter what your age is should stand up and protect your right, not to get jerked around….
Allan, the best random encounter I had in Taiwan was with a matriarch of a family who was in elementary school/middle school through WW2. That was in 2016, and I know finding someone to interview at that age would be tough, but the stories! The short of it was this, after ww2, around 1948, global powers handed taiwan over to China after years of Japanese occupation. They elderly lady I was chatting to said that one day she returned to school and was told no, you are not Japanese... The children after growing up through years/generations of occupation just had no idea. 😮
I think your video becomes more and more interesting, I like the topics you talked about as a foreginer liive in Tiawan. Thank you for loving and living in Taiwan
Unable to think of words on the spot doesn't mean we won't understand them when you use them. I believe it's the same for most developed cities in Asia.
Handing people money or business cards with both hands is also a thing in Japan, it's interesting to note that influence in Taiwan. Another thing to add to gifts - don't open 紅包 around others either!
They also give things with both hands in southeast asia and South Korea as well. Cambodian tuktuk drivers look so polite when they accept money with both hands! It makes a pleasant travel experience and I hope to travel to Taiwan soon to experience this.
Must be very careful while on the roads in Taiwan. Traffic here is really terrible, sometime even you follow the rule, it might not keep you away from danger. Using chopsticks and spoon are with lots of taboos here. Different area has their own taboo. Thanks for collecting these for those who are preparing to live in Taiwan.
Thanks Allan for knowing that Sweet and Sour chicken is a Cantonese Cusine！ btw , as a Hong Konger , We would usually do SnS in pork and I had actually never order this in England !
Love sweet and sour pork. I have it all the time here in Australia! Never heard of sweet and sour chicken though, although my local Chinese restaurant does make it, but I always prefer pork.
The chopsticks in the rice bowl taboo is based on a practice conducted in funerals. I attended a funeral in Taiwan, and in one of the many rituals that entailed, a bowl of rice with incense sticks in it was presented as an offering to the dearly departed.
At 2:35 is there a specific law for "losing face" or just insulting someone is an offence kind of like verbal abuse or a heated argument that disturbs public peace and order? Because in Cambodia a vaguely written law states you aren't allowed to tarnish cambodian customs and culture, but that means the authorities can arrest and penalize anyone that does something that offends people even if the act isn't defined in the law. This is good to know before traveling since it gets many so called "crazy barangs" in trouble.
On littering: I sometimes find it hard to spot trash cans - sure, you can drop by a convenience store to get rid of a disposable cup. Or bus stops, MRT stations, you name it. But I also spotted small private trash cans with a lid standing on the sidewalks. As for jay walking, that's suicidal anyway as it's even dangerous to cross a road when the lights are green south of Taichung. Love the animated green man, by the way. As for the rule not to eat or drink in the MRT, I always carry a bottle of water with me in Taiwan, and I tend to take a quick sip in the MRT.
Survey says if there's a trash can, there's more opportunities with trash around it. Thus we prefer take the trash home and deal with it by ourselves, not the convenient store clerks.
2008/3/18 is a memorable day for us too as we just found out to have a baby coming. And then we had to take a vacation to Ali mountain on 3/22 which was planned for a long time.
Practically all of those points you make are the same as in Mainland China. One difference is that Chinese people assume every foreigner does not understand Chinese when disparaging remarks I made. I and some of my colleagues have experienced that and the Chinese person has been embarrassed when we answer back.
priority seats are not only for old people or for someone who is pregnant, it's for people who need the seat. Young people also can have the set, when they need.
3:35 To me,it's more important to be aware that you are using the seat that are elderly and infirm friendly. And that means you should give the seat to whoever is in need, not just saying "Don't sit on it.".
I saw some Japanese men throw their trash in Lake Titicaca, because that is the purpose of traveling-becoming less tolerant. I like the giving money with two hands thing. Never seen that before, but I like it.
Taiwan possesses all the legal qualities of an independent country, including citizenship, territorial jurisdiction, government, and sovereignty. Taiwan is completely sovereign as defined by international law - it’s an ultimate authority independent of all other authorities in the world.
Cool video. I used to ask people if they identify as Chinese or Taiwanese; it was about 50/50. Drinking (ie. beer) in public may be frowned on (maybe only alcoholics drink in public), but it usually didn't stop me as I was identified as a foreigner and they'd cut me some slack, or just say something under their breath. I probably got away with a lot as a foreigner, but I'd try to be nice and a respectful guest/visitor (it wasn't my home country) and most people were nice, back. (everyone has a bad day, now and then ... )
I would like to add when you give gifts, give nice gifts that the receiver could use or appreciate, not useless low value items, which can be considered an insult. Also, it's not uncommon to meet people who furthered their education overseas and returned to Taiwan from all over the world.
飯插兩支筷子不是寺廟祭拜哦！而是人往生時，台灣習俗，拜往生者的插香，所以那個對台灣人，生者是很禁忌的，因為這樣，像你在詛咒對方會出事，所以是很大的忌諱
而且筷子是兩支，兩支香是拜鬼的！
腳尾飯
不只是臺灣習俗，是整個華人世界用筷的禁忌！
@@jerrylu7707 中國很多地方是沒有這種忌諱的，不可一概而論
尤其是白米飯....那是活人最後一餐，往生的人的第一餐~~。
3:40 實際上，當時若沒有人有那個需求的話，一般乘客是可以坐在博愛座上的
博愛座的立意為「優先禮讓席位」，因此並不是特殊需求的乘客所獨佔的
基本上，台北捷運，就算沒人有需求，也沒有人敢坐.....
@@Sophie_yyl 坐了還會被自以為是的正義魔人找碴，不過我還是照坐不誤就是了，誰敢上門亂噹、那我就再給對方正視聽
@@Sophie_yyl 如果博愛座有空位，而其他座位都有人坐，我都會去坐，看到有需要的人再讓座即可，還沒被人責難過。
沒錯，博愛座並非老人家專屬，而是優先讓座給需要的老弱婦孺，特別是下班時間，老人家不多，博愛座就應該要坐滿，可以節省站位空間，想搭車的人也不會上不了車
矯枉過正的文化
辛苦了allan深度了解台灣文化🤣
台灣有句話叫「馬路如虎口」非常危險
過馬路時真的要多注意！
台灣雖然沒有小費文化
但是我們常送禮 給祝福
收到小禮物是一種小確幸. "小確幸"用語是來自日文用語
坐博愛座的部分算是誤導啊，博愛座沒有說不能給一般人坐，主要目的是希望大家會讓位給需要的人，其實不論哪個座位都一樣，只是很多人會想避免被指責而不去坐博愛座，但這不代表這些人可以不讓位給需要的人，平常我這個沒病沒痛的年輕人也會去坐博愛座，畢竟沒有規定說不能坐，會禮讓給需要的人才是最重要的
送禮也蠻多忌諱的，例如 : 送傘(散)、送鐘、錶(送終)、送鞋子(一路好走)…等等；長輩都說，如果送比較忌諱的禮物(諧音)，跟對方收個1元即可。
其實很多人已經不怎麼在乎這些忌諱
但如果是見對方父母，或你的上司，千萬別這樣做

Watching this video highlights some of the cultural parallels between them. I know they do not have the best history, but I like hearing news stories on how they are supporting each other.
送禮物的文化真的很有意思，在某些文化會說這個是我精心準備、最頂的禮物，某些文化則會說這個禮物不值一提、讓你見笑了。
在收禮的時候，有的文化習慣當場打開以表示尊敬收到這份禮物，有的文化則是要求不要表現出對這份禮物的喜好，反而要讓送禮方感受我在意的，不是禮物而是我們之間的情誼。
真正送禮的場合，如婚禮、生日、祭禮、紀念日等等，自然是要送精緻合適的禮物了，收到禮物的人開心，送禮的人也舒坦，而一般場合送些小卡片或是商店送的小禮物，並沒有要求多貴重或者精緻，只是帶給收禮者一個小小驚喜而已，那真的不必太過講究。
而不當場打開，是基本上避免引起比較、尷尬的狀況，一是在公開場合上容易招致旁觀者的閒言閒語，一是送禮的人怕看到收禮的人會露出不滿意表情，雙方都尷尬。
Cool, I first moved here (Chiayi) in May 2008! Our dates are pretty close. Of course, I moved back to Canada for a number of years before finally moving back here again...
其實筷子插在米飯上會有禁忌，跟喪禮的習俗比較有關，在你的親人過世後，那是在請你過世的親人吃的。
是的！ 祭奠逝去的人。才會筷子插在上面。Big ＮO! Don't do that...
7:30 I like these humorous elements, please add more in future episodes! 😁😁😁

通常八大場合外，台灣人不太會給小費，但台灣人有些人很可愛，他們喜歡你的服務，他們常常會以買飲品或食物，贈與給你，表示他們的滿意喜歡你的服務～

在美國，road rage可是拿槍出來，不是拿棍子出來的，😱😱最近就有好幾個新聞關於road rage被槍殺，甚至小孩被殺，所以，就像Allen說的，開車在路上，再生氣都要忍耐🤷♂️
有些時候,很多家庭或商店會在門口擺上食物菜餚及臉盆毛巾並在插上香支。這不是代表你可以自助拿取,或是你可以對其指指點點,因為這是正在舉行民俗信仰儀式!!個人就曾經看過某國人拿取及碰觸供品,而且是在街上不是在廟裡。看很多youtuber介紹台灣文化,卻從無人提起這點.........
我覺得裡面還是有很多錯誤，例如薪水，大部分台灣人根本不介意互相討論薪水。還有單手給錢，這只是個人習慣，根本無所謂得要雙手，雙手是有禮貌一點點沒錯，但也沒單手給錢會比較不禮貌這一看法。主要還是從你當時的臉上語氣表情來傳達什麼樣的態度。開禮物這也無所謂，直接開可以，禮貌性和送禮者確認一下即可
老一輩(1960年以前)的人親友間會比薪水。所以等他們兒女進入職場時還是會問別人薪水，像怕自己兒女薪水少被給少了。漸漸改觀了，薪水多的人講了怕被搶，薪水少的人講了怕丟臉，每個人都怕回答，那問的就是白目。

在台灣生活有一點很重要：在辦喪事的場合中要回家時 千萬不能說再見（或bye-bye）也不能回頭 然後默默離開…
外國人基本上不太可能參加台灣喪事吧
I also learn a lot from this video about what are the different behaviors in western countries I wasn't aware before....... Thanks!
What a thorough and deep observations! Bravo 👏!
至於問金錢這件事...其實它跟問候語(你好嗎?):你吃飽了沒?(台語)是一樣的.當對方這樣問你其實只是關心一下你過得好不好.並非真的在意你的薪水....當然人都會好奇拉^^....但是你可以選擇不答微笑帶過或是客氣地回說:沒多少啦.夠生活已經不錯了等等的客套話喔
Super useful! Thanks! I’m flying to Taiwan for the first time in 3 weeks. Great information!
Excellent analysis!
關於電扶梯站法，現在台北也不提倡靠右邊站了，不過因為長期以來的習慣就這樣了。
不過
身為台中人，
我得跟你說，台中人就是站在中間啦，類似影片中3:14那樣(但是不會插腰啦，就...雙手都放在兩邊的扶手上XDD)
一個人就是站中間，不然就是時而靠左、時而靠右，
兩個人就是並排而站。
趕時間請走樓梯，在電扶梯上跑很危險的~!!
在台北捷運裡面很多地方上下時只有手扶梯，哪裡來的樓梯讓你走，人潮多又趕時間的時候站中間，真的很自私@@
還有誰會在上面用跑的，頂多快步走吧，講的如此誇張==
很好的影片，可以提醒要來台灣的外國人 一些台灣人的習慣
搭手扶梯靠右的規定很早就廢除了，現在 左右都可以站，不過大多的人還是習慣站右
這只是禮儀而已，算是對趕時間的人的一種貼心。照著做很好，不這麼做也不應該被指責。
同理，趕時間的人遇到前路被檔，也不該指責別人，看一下如果對方有讓路的空間的話就有禮貌的請對方讓一下，沒空間就等一下唄。
Maintain certain coolness and flexibility in your mind and don’t take everything for granted! 保持柔軟冷靜彈性平常心的態度，不要認為所有的事物都是「理所當然」！
一開始的背景好眼熟啊！一看就認出是文心路，之後經過一個公車亭，還真的是文心大墩七街口的😀

很多餐廳都有收 服務費 正常來說那是應該要給員工的"小費"
但 98%的餐廳老闆都不會把他撥給員工
我是沒去過台灣哪家餐廳把明訂的服務費給員工的😅
因為本身薪水已經有含了老闆當然不會再給員工，國外會採小費制主要就是他們的底薪很低，就很像我們台灣的房仲業務底薪能有一萬就很不錯，但大多公司是連底薪都沒有完全要靠成交抽成，這也是為什麼小費在國外會那麼重要的原因。
Thanks for sharing, I really like this video.
其實付錢時不一定是雙手啦！完全是態度問題而已！你就算是用雙手給錢，但是給的時候用甩的或是碎碎念，一樣會讓人很不爽！（我自己都是結帳後跟收銀員說謝謝而已～）
態度跟對話的語氣很重要～（所以以前有一陣子在推廣，大家常在互動時，常說「請」「謝謝」「對不起」！）
（很多禁忌不像以前，其實大家慢慢不太在意就是了～筷子插在白飯上，是在拜死去的人，這個比較嚴重～因為習俗怕招鬼或是詛咒別人）
雙手給錢的時候，生理動作上無法甩吧?
畫面有點謎

四個垃圾桶，是需要分類的...
飲料杯身是紙類、吸管+蓋子是塑膠類
另外，老人是神......應該是指，不論何種年齡，都應該要尊重及被尊重...
拿來盛裝飲料的紙杯，為了防水會於內層再上一層PE淋膜（聚乙烯），也就是塑膠，所以像飲料杯、便當盒等，應該歸類為紙容器類，不是紙類。

功課做的很充足，看完廣告按讚支持你
人行橫道...在台灣是叫行人(也有寫作人行)穿越道。
我國的法律規定，你穿越馬路的位置前後50公尺內有人行穿越道的話就一定要走
然後就算前後50公尺內沒有，通常比較寬的馬路都會插牌子寫禁止跨越，那一樣也不能直接跨越馬路
我個人是覺得:世界各國都有他們的在地文化.不要嘗試去批評或是試圖改變.而是應該要入境隨俗...可以給建議.但是不要太過火.那會容易引來對峙.....這是最起碼的尊重
觀察入微，講得真棒！
在台灣，討論政治話題絕對是一件最尷尬的事
因為你永遠不知道你新交的朋友是支持哪一邊，就算你挑對了，他也會滔滔不絕的向你闡述支持方的好，然後各種批評反對方的爛，總之就是怎麼講怎麼錯

很想告訴你，你在影片中時常注意到自己的口罩是否有沒有戴好並即時的拉上，雖然不知道是否是因為在拍影片的關係，但還是謝謝你遵守台灣的規定。
我在大賣場工作，時常看見來自世界各地的外國人，不能說全部，但大部分的外國人不願意好好的戴好口罩，甚至在提醒他們的時候，出言侮辱及動作挑釁工作人員，送了我中指還加上吐舌翻白眼，希望能藉此留言，告訴來台灣的朋友們，如果你們喜歡這裡愛這個美麗的地方，應該與我們一起好好守護台灣，防疫期間一起努力，加油

感覺鞠躬基本上在日本韓國這東北亞比較多吧
Practically all of those points you make are the same as in Mainland China. One difference is that Chinese people assume every foreigner does not understand Chinese when disparaging remarks I made. I and some of my colleagues have experienced that and the Chinese person has been embarrassed when we answer back.
Now I want to try 25 of these.
Not all western countries you stand on the right on the escalators. In Australia, it is the opposite, stand on left, walkers on right.
Monarchy is left, Democracy is right? I heard somebody said that before.
幾個筷子的使用要點:
(1)不要直直的插在飯碗裡.
如很多網友提到的那有如祭拜往生者時線香插在一碗白飯上的形象,而飯桌對面就是正好是被祭拜的對象.
若真的臨時需要收納一下筷子又沒筷架非得這麼做時請改成很斜的插在碗裡,這勉強還能接受.
(2)不要用筷子敲碗
這種動作基本上是乞丐索討食物時才會做的行為.
(3)與他人一起用餐時不要一直用筷子翻動桌上共食的菜餚
一來自己的筷子是會放進自己嘴裡的餐具,在桌上的菜盤裡面胡亂攪動等於是大家都要吃你的口水,二來有種不受歡迎的行為是有人會不顧他人眼光不斷翻找菜盤只把盤中自己想吃的部份挑出來並全部吃掉.
因此若自己筷子使用技術上辦的到時請盡可能的只夾筷子碰到那區域的菜餚,若菜餚內容較軟易滑或零碎很難做到時就改用湯匙輔助來取用食物.
只挑盤中必要部份出來吃掉這種狀況是有的,通常出現在已經要用餐結束時,在場參與用餐的人取得共識後就可以這麼做.
關於電扶梯有一點要糾正的是=電扶梯是讓使用者走著上下樓，不是讓使用走站著不動上下樓的，發明者的用意是讓使用大眾解省上下樓的時間，所以不存在站在哪一邊的問題。而且大眾都讚在右邊會造成機器右邊磨損嚴重，導致故障。
3:11 那個是不是我們要先內戰一下?
電扶梯靠右側 那個是從台北捷運形成的習慣
電扶梯最多也只能同一接並成兩個
所以無所位 這個習慣也好
可當遇到有沒有一循北擷習慣的乘客時
還是要用比較好的態度去提醒比較好
priority seats are not only for old people or for someone who is pregnant, it's for people who need the seat. Young people also can have the set, when they need.
除非是為了重大弊案或醜聞道歉，不然一般時候只會對國父鞠躬啦XD
其實還有很多本地行人或司機不守交通規則，大家要一起加油
There will always be cars crushing to you even you follow the pedestrian green light.That's insane!
3:35 To me,it's more important to be aware that you are using the seat that are elderly and infirm friendly. And that means you should give the seat to whoever is in need, not just saying "Don't sit on it.".
這裡的討論很幽默！
提醒你，將筷子插在碗裡的意思是祭拜死者！
鞠躬的文化應該與階級制度比較有密切的關係！台灣本身是完全的民主制度，所以一般不太有鞠躬的禮節，只有去寺廟或對師長們長輩們比較常有的禮節！
哈哈，我覺得是有點嘲諷某些台灣老人家特別需要別人尊重他們，像是讓座，回覆講話口氣不好都要強迫別人向他們道歉。😅

這一集,有些點我身為台灣人也不是很care,但有些點感覺很反諷....雖然實都是反應事實......
但我覺得只要不危及安全(馬路交通)和道德底限(亂丟垃圾),台灣對外國人的犯錯通常是比較寬容的,對自己人要嘛當眼不見為淨,要嘛就口硃筆伐,反應二極....
並沒有，多少新聞報導其他國家的人違規時各種難聽且針對非本國人身分的謾罵。臺灣人也是對本國人比較寬容的
關於博愛座... 不至於到"任何時候"都不要坐。但是一般來說會要求優先讓座給需要的人。
問題在於偶爾會有正義魔人出沒的情況，為了避免麻煩，所以比較少人會去坐那個位置。

Cool video. I used to ask people if they identify as Chinese or Taiwanese; it was about 50/50. Drinking (ie. beer) in public may be frowned on (maybe only alcoholics drink in public), but it usually didn't stop me as I was identified as a foreigner and they'd cut me some slack, or just say something under their breath. I probably got away with a lot as a foreigner, but I'd try to be nice and a respectful guest/visitor (it wasn't my home country) and most people were nice, back.

台灣寺廟拜拜，神的香，一般不是插一柱香，不然就是三柱香哦！二柱香，在台灣，都是拜往生者的，所以也要注意
還有要注意⚠️插香爐時要特別注意～左為陽右為陰、在廟拜神像時要以左手插香、拜亡生者或家裡的祖先神龕牌位才是右手插香爐。再來進廟時要從左門進（龍門）出門時才是從右門出（出虎口）⋯

把筷子插在飯上，即使知道是在拍片說明，那景象還是會錯愕到不行，就覺得：怎麼能做這種事。

I would like to add when you give gifts, give nice gifts that the receiver could use or appreciate, not useless low value items, which can be considered an insult. Also, it's not uncommon to meet people who furthered their education overseas and returned to Taiwan from all over the world.
很多人講了不能把筷子插在飯上的禁忌，我再補充。以前的台灣人過世後，在世的親人會在腳的那一頭擺上一碗白飯加一顆熟雞蛋，再於飯上插上一雙筷子，做為祭拜，台語稱為"腳尾飯"。現在的人因為過世後都馬上送殯儀館，所以這個習俗慢慢少見了。剛過世時筷子用插的，後續祭拜時就沒再用插的了，就跟祭拜祖先一樣，將筷子放在桌子上，白飯的旁邊。
因腳尾飯是擺在地上的，我想是因為怕筷子弄髒，所以將筷子插在飯上，也算是對亡者的尊重吧！
