The opening tea party of "Land Grabbing and Home Eviction Action Art Exhibition" was held at a residential house next to the construction site of Lvjie G12 Station, Zhongzheng Road, Taoyuan District. "Stop land plundering, stop forced eviction," and local groups chanted "civic participation, low-intensity development, and promotion of urban-rural co-prosperity." The scene was quite lively.

Xu Shirong said that in accordance with the United Nations and other conventions, there are serious human rights violations in Taiwan, including land plundering and forced relocation of homes. Experienced unfair and unjust land plundering, and even self-run city land rezoning, some landlords who were unwilling to join were also included in the case.

Tian Qifeng, spokesperson of the Greenland Conservation Alliance, said that the "MRT Green Line G12~G13a Station Surrounding Land Development Plan" spans two administrative districts, Taoyuan and Luzhu, with an area of ​​642 hectares including 546 hectares of private land. The north airport land along the line, and later the north airport was moved to Shimeipi. The legitimacy of large-scale development no longer exists. The former city government insisted on continuing to handle the development project. I hope that the Zhang Shanzheng city government team will listen to local opinions and not insist on it. Large-scale development, otherwise some families who have lived here for hundreds of years are forced to relocate, which will inevitably cause public resentment.

The landowner surnamed Lu said that his father left about 1 hectare of land to his family. It has been rezoned and expropriated four times, and 60% of the 1 hectare was taken away by the government. Now he is planning to expropriate his land for the development of Xingfu Road. There is such a government.
