Description: 

The first local NGO which concern about marine conservation in Penghu (Pescardores). The members of our association mainly consist of civil servants, soldiers, policemen, teachers, doctors, merchants and fishermen. They all have a stable incomes and try to do something for our community in return. Just like any other cases, Of course we face several conflictions between fishermen and us. However, we believe we are the one who have the enthusiasm and ability to help them. If the marine environment and resources are destroyed and depleted, fishermen not we are the most critical victims.
