The Dongshi Fisherman's Wharf (traditional Chinese: 東石漁人碼頭; simplified Chinese: 东石渔人码头; pinyin: Dongshi Yúrenmatou) is a fisherman's wharf in Dongshi Township, Chiayi County, Taiwan.[1]

History[edit]

After Taiwan joined World Trade Organization on 1 January 2002, the government realized the need to reform and change Taiwan traditional fishing industries towards recreational-oriented business to face the competition from Mainland China.[citation needed] Taking the advantage of the environment of Dongshi Township, the government transformed a fishing port in the township to become the multipurpose Dongshi Fisherman's Wharf.[citation needed]
