[Reporter Chen Yanting/Pingtung Report] The BOT case of the Dapeng Bay National Scenic Area of ​​the Tourism Bureau of the Ministry of Communications was once the largest recreational BOT case in China, but the BOT company terminated the contract early. The uncontroversial part, the reopening of this summer vacation, ushered in a wave of tourism, but the outside world is more concerned about how to create a tourism niche in Dapeng Bay after the breakup. In the investment promotion briefing, it was emphasized that the recreational area of ​​about 210 hectares still focuses on BOT investment promotion, but will draw on the previous experience and divide 1 area into 3 areas for investment promotion.

Dapeng Bay was developed by BOT in 2004. In 2019, it became popular due to the Taiwan Lantern Festival, but the good times did not last long. The BOT company Dongfang Company, which claims to have invested 3 billion yuan in development, immediately proposed to terminate the contract 10 after the Lantern Festival, because it was too early. The contract was terminated, and the two companies entered arbitration. After a long period of judicial arbitration and negotiated price purchases, the government will invest 1.5 billion yuan to buy back the non-disputed site facilities this year. In mid-July, the "Water Carnival", "Pingtung FUN Summer Vacation" and other activities will be restarted, and it is estimated that more than 2 million people will come.
