Taiwan
I take great pleasure in personally welcoming you to the 9th Asia Pacific Cities Summit (APCS).
After 16 successful years, APCS has established itself as a leading regional forum for civic and
business leaders. By connecting key decision makers from across the Asia Pacific Region the
Summit has become a valuable forum to exchange knowledge and formulate solutions to
tackle shared challenges.
APCS has become an integral part of the Brisbane City Councils broader strategy to
encourage closer cultural and economic ties with our regional partners and I am delighted to
be bringing a significant delegation of Brisbane business leaders to Kaohsiung and a group of
City leaders from the South East Queensland region.
I am confident that the 2013 APCS will continue to build on the tremendous success enjoyed
by previous Summits and that Kaohsiung will be magnificent hosts for this years event.
Brisbane and Kaohsiung share a very strong sister city relationship and I am delighted that the

Host City
Facing Taiwan Strait to the west and Bashi Channel to the south, Kaohsiung is a beautiful and
modern metropolis located in southern Taiwan as well as the second largest city of the island.
Greater Kaohsiung, a metropolis occupying an area of 2,946 km2 with the total population of
2.77 million, possessing all kinds of natural landscapes and living facilities, will thrive as a new
global city.
Kaohsiung has the largest land
area of any special municipality of
Taiwan. Its convenient network of
land, air, and sea transportation offers
multiple options for travel and freight
movements, linking Kaohsiung
with the world while also allowing
people quick and easy access to the
city. Kaohsiung also has easy access
to Taoyuan International Airport in
northern Taiwan by either highway or
the Taiwan High-Speed Rail, for flights
to destinations worldwide.
Kaohsiung is a leading industrial
city in Taiwan as well as one of the worlds most important cargo ports. The Taiwan miracle
was created in Kaohsiung when the island emerged as a world leader in manufacturing
in the 1960s. In the 21st century, the city is now committed to achieve a balance between
the economy and ecology, and between industry and innovation. The city is actively
developing high-tech, environmental protection, low-carbon, green energy, cultural and
creative industries, as well as accelerating the upgrading and transforming of traditional
heavy industries. Kaohsiung is now building its capacity for the future and has long-term
development potentials from all perspectives serving as the best base for prospective
investors to venture into the Asian economy and market.
Since its a diverse marine city with many ethnic groups, its evolved into a friendly, passionate,
adventurous and creative city. Buoyed by the years of continuing efforts from citizens and
the city government alike, Kaohsiung has advanced from a business driven, industrial city,
into a metropolis of culture, tourism, multiple green spaces and sustainability. Charming
waterfronts, fabulous night views of the harbor, vibrant and creative folk festivals, artistic
performances and promising investment opportunities are just small part of Kaohsiungs
amazing characteristics.
Kaohsiung has continuously striven to provide residents with a safe and sufficient living
environment not only by progress in urbanomics but also the implementation of fully-
developed policies. Leveraging the significant experience of 2009 World Games to the
upcoming milestone of 2014 Asias New Bay Area designation, Kaohsiung will continuously
gain in competitiveness from its rich culture and beautiful cityscape.

Theme & Topic
Now that the old tried and true old mantras of the 60s and 70s have taken a battering
unseen since the Great Depression, urban communities need now to bravely move on the
true wealth of dealing with Why Urbanomics needs an urgent reform due to competition
at the expense of city environments, justice and the people and How to rebuild durable
communities by advocating people-oriented, deep-rooted, responsible and sustainable
economies.
2013 APCS Kaohsiung is themed "Reshaping the Urbanomics of Cities City Challenges,
City Solutions" and addresses the challenges that Asian Pacific cities have encountered
under the pressure of global competition. In the face of a world economic crisis of historic
proportions, cities of the Asia Pacific, which have remained resilient and ambitious are called
to seek a fresh vision and bold new ideas and to strengthen strategic networking across the
most vibrant market region on earth, which we know as the Asia Pacific.
2013 APCS is well-timed to generate new possibilities for greater economic values and
initiatives. While enjoying sharing valuable perspectives on exciting topics, Summit
participants will also gain much out of their investment from the City Partners Exhibition,
Panel Discussion and Young Professionals' Forum. The theme of the 2013 APCS is based
around the premise that neither government, nor business, nor civic society alone can
successfully address the challenges on the current global economic agenda.
We expect to generate new ideas and plans for reshaping urbanomics under the discussion of
the following topics:
City Challenges and Opportunities
Current trends are urging the necessity of City leadership to seek newer, more integrated
urban development models that can flourish even in todays condition. The APCS provides a
road-map of actionable, urbanomic models developed to successfully tackle todays urgent
economic challenges. In scanning the steps necessary to make the commitment to a more
efficient and sustainable future. APCS 2013 brings an original, fresh discourse to reshaping
our economies to the fore-ground.
Green Economy to Blue Economy
Within the concept of City sustainability, the Green and Blue Economy brings innovative
thinking from multiple perspectives, that will enrich our local discourse and help us
scientifically to rethink urban economies that can thrive. Seeing the need to further
mainstream sustainable development at all levels and recognizing their inter-linkages, Mayors
at 2013 APCS will discover integrating nature and ecological principles with innovatively
designed urbanomics.
Smart, Bold, and Breakthrough Leadership
Reshaping competitiveness and providing solutions to seemingly insurmountable challenges
while facing stiff international competition and financial austerity is a major concern for all
cities. Mayors will focus on smart and ambitious governance strategies for todays urban
needs, and prioritizing the tackling of core issues to maximize limited assets, achieve positive
growth, jobs and develop distinctive industries.
