縣市光榮感金門排名全國第一

你對自己居住的縣市感到光榮嗎？2009年台灣25縣市中，最以家鄉為豪是金門人。縣市光榮感反映了民眾對地方文化、縣市長施政成績的認同，根據遠見雜誌調查，因為小三通而地位提升的金馬地區，縣市光榮感巨幅上升，金門縣從上年的第11名快速攀升為第1名，成為大黑馬。
Are you proud of the county or city you are living in? In 2009, among the 25 counties and cities in Taiwan, Kinmen is the hometown to be most proud of. The county/city sense of pride reflects the residents' identification with the local culture as well as their recognition of the administration of the magistrate or mayor. According to a survey conducted by Global Views Monthly, the county/city sense of pride of the people in Kinmen and Mazu had increased drastically(1) as a result of the Mini-Three Link. Kinmen County soared(2) from the 11th place last year to become No.1 in 2009, to the surprise of every one.

　 《遠見雜誌》今年25縣巿大調查首度採取開放式問法，詢問民眾對於縣巿長三年半以來的整體施政，金門縣長李炷烽主持縣政近8年中，97年歲入預算總額占全國23縣巿歲入成長排名第1名；歲出成長排名第3名。金門縣各項社會福利躍居全國第一，已名副其實「福利縣市」。
The survey by Global Views was conducted, for the first time, with open-ended questions to find out what people thought of the overall administration in their county/city in the past three and a half years. During the eight years under Magistrate Li Zhufeng's leadership, Kinmen's financial revenue growth in 2008 was the largest among the 23 counties and cities (not including the Taipei and Kaohsiung), while its annual expenditure increase ranked No.3. The social welfare in Kinmen was the best in the country, making it a genuine(3) "welfare county."　
　 「縣巿長最滿意施政」：金酒營收突破百億、推動全面小三通、傳統建築與歷史建築維護。政府從去年6月19日起擴大小三通，而今年1月起，大陸25省市及地區人民開放赴台旅遊，金門小三通旅客人數逐漸成長，平均一天約有3500人進出。小三通航班平均每天達32航班次。
The factors that made Magistrate Li the "Magistrate/mayor with the most satisfactory administration" included the annual business income of more than 10 billions of the Kinmen Kaoliang Liquor Inc.(KKL), promotion of the Mini-Three Link, and conservation of traditional buildings and historical monuments. The government expanded the applicable scope of the Mini-Three Link on Jun. 19 last year and lifted the restriction on tourist visits by people from the Chinese Mainland in January this year. As a consequence, the number of people traveling through Kinmen has grown to an average around 3,500 per day, and there are 32 Mini-Three Link liners each day.
　
　 據遠見雜誌民調結果顯示，今年二十五縣市長施政滿意度調查，該調查是按星級評等，最高等級五顆星，次為四顆星，以此類推；李縣長施政滿意度，從上任二顆星一路爬至今年的三顆星，施政表現逐年獲得縣民認同，有漸入佳境的味道；「民眾最滿意三項施政」，分別是小三通和交通建設4.7%、社會福利3.3%、金酒回饋券3.0%。
The survey by Global Views Monthly rated satisfaction with the administration of the magistrate/mayor by giving a number of stars-five stars maximum, then four stars, and so on. Satisfaction with Magistrate Li's administration went up from two stars in his last term to three stars this year, indicating the residents' recognition of the improvements under his administration over the years. The "Three Most Satisfactory Policies" respectively were Mini-Three Link and transportation construction at 4.7%, social welfare at 3.3%, and issuing of Commemorative Vouchers at 3.0%.
　
金門縣長李炷烽今年獲得三顆星，主要是金門的小三通因地利之便帶來更多大陸觀光客，甚至增加國際旅客，大陸商機等等都是今年金門縣長李炷烽施政滿意度有所上升因素。儘管中央未能提升小三通碼頭、機場設施，限制了金門的發展性，但金門縣長李炷烽施政滿意度仍受肯定。
Magistrate Li was given three stars this year. The increase of Chinese tourists, growth of international travelers, and business opportunities due to Kinmen's proximity(4) to mainland China and the Mini-Three Link, all these elements contributed to Magistrate Li's improved rating. Despite that the central government failed to upgrade the harbor and airport facilities for Mini-Three Link and Kinmen's development was limited, Magistrate Li's administration still received affirmation(5) from the people in Kinmen.　

　 綜觀金門縣民對縣長李炷烽施政滿意度評比給的三顆星，主要對他主政近8年所持續推出社會福利有關，包括65歲以上老人月領至少新台幣3000元撫慰金、專職媽媽月領3000元津貼，從國中、國小和幼稚園學生免費營養午餐、免繳學雜費、生育給予補助，縣民搭公車全免費，連高中職校女學生免費施打子宮頸癌疫苗等。
In fact, the residents in Kinmen gave Magistrate Li three stars chiefly because of the social welfare policies during about eight years of his administration, which included the monthly NT$3,000 pension for senior citizens over 65 years of age, the NT$3,000 allowance for non-working mothers, free lunches for junior high, elementary school and kindergarten students, exemption of tuitions, maternity(6) subsidies, free bus rides, and even free cervical(7) cancer vaccination(8) for senior and vocational high school girls.
　
　 尤值一提是，今年起加碼的福利，國中到幼稚園學童免費喝鮮乳算是小福利，大手筆的政策是就讀金門高中職校和大學學生，享有就學津貼和交通券補助，其中，大學生一學年就學津貼為1萬元、交通券4000元，而且連台灣學生到金門求學也納入受惠對象，希望吸引台生來金就學，均為國內教育的創舉。
Special mention should be made of those new welfare policies initiated this year. They include minor benefits like free fresh milk for junior high and elementary school and kindergarten students. And major funding items include NT$10,000 tuition subsidy and NT$4,000 transportation vouchers for high school and university students. Even students from Taiwan studying in Kinmen were included, in the hope of attracting more of them. All of these policies are innovations in Taiwan's education system.　

　 另外，金門縣政府實施多年的春節、端午和中秋三大節日配售高粱酒，20歲以上符合資格的縣民，可獲得縣營金酒公司配售專用酒一份，每份轉售即有2000至3000元進帳，形同縣民三節「紅包」。縣民福利可以說比其他縣巿居民享有更多照顧，彌足珍貴，也讓縣民的幸福感增加不少。
There is also the allocation(9) of kaoliang liquor to Kinmen residents at the cost price for the three major traditional festivals-Chinese New Year, Duanwu and Mid-Autumn, and this policy has been practiced for years. All qualified residents over the age of twenty are eligible(10) to purchase a specific kaoliang liquor set which they can easily resell and make a profit of NT$2,000 to NT$3,000, like a bonus for each of the said festivals from the county government. Without doubt, such benefits can only make Kinmen's residents feel taken care of and happy.
　
　 今年為古寧頭戰役60週年，金門縣政府在中央發放每人3600元的消費券激勵下，更是推出金酒感恩回饋券，在清明、端午和中秋三大節日，每名縣民不分老少，每次都可領取3600元的回饋券，年領1萬800元，用以兌換高粱酒，更是讓縣民樂翻了。在全世界經濟不景氣中，金門縣政府對縣民福利措施不僅沒打折，反而持續加碼，羨煞全國各縣市民眾，事實上，地方民眾都知道是靠「金雞母」縣營金酒公司釀造高粱酒賺錢所賜，去年金酒公司營業額超過120億元，即「捐贈」47億元給金門縣政府，而受惠最大的是全體縣民。
The year of 2009 happens to be the 60th anniversary of the Guningtou Battle. Encouraged by the central government's issuance of the NT$3,600 consumption vouchers, Kinmen County Government also handed out the NT$3,600 KKL Commemorative Vouchers for each of the major traditional festivals. The vouchers worthy of NT$10,800 in total can be exchanged for Kinmen kaoliang. The people were overjoyed. To the envy of the rest of the people in the Taiwan, Kinmen County Government, amidst the global economic downturn, not only did not reduce the benefits for the residents but also raise them instead. The residents knew well that they should thank the "Golden Goose"-the county-government-owned Kinmen Kaoliang Liquor Inc-for the benefits. It grossed over NT$12 billion last year and "donated" NT$4.7 billion to the county government, and the county residents became the biggest beneficiary.
