Taipei metro operators accused of banning anti-nuclear advertisements (2014/02/21)

The operators of the Taipei Metro are under fire for apparently banning advertisements that contain anti-nuclear energy messages. The issue was raised when an ad by the NGO Mom Loves Taiwan appeared at Taipei Main Station missing its full message.

In the metro area of Taipei Main Station is a 6-meter tall advertisement that encourages people to reduce energy use by 6 percent. There is space for about five more characters. Passengers weren’t quite sure of the meaning behind the ad.

“The advertisement is telling us to save energy, but you aren’t quite able to see that it’s anti-nuclear power.”

The owner of the ad is the anti-nuclear NGO Mom Loves Taiwan. The original design tells people that if they cut energy use by 6 percent, the fourth nuclear power plant can be eliminated. At the metro station, the second part of this message is missing, apparently due to metro regulations.

Director
If the Department of Rapid Transit Systems were a jail, it let these words escape. It failed to lock them down. The department should give a clear explanation of what occurred.

The company commissioned to operate the metro system gave a response.

Ling Chi-yao
TRTC Spokesman
The content was discussed and agreed upon by the commissioned publishing unit and advertising firm. The Taipei Rapid Transit Corporation didn’t force anyone to revise it. We conduct reviews in accordance with government regulations.

In spite of the change to its advertisement, the NGO Mom Loves Taiwan says it won’t be silenced. It will gather members of the arts and entertainment industry to hold nationwide anti-nuclear marches on March 8.

北捷禁反核

為了宣導反核理念，媽媽監督核電廠聯盟，最近在捷運台北車站刊登廣告，結果卻被捷運公司要求，不得出現「核四」的字眼，廣告被迫改版。消息曝光後，導演柯一正痛批，政府不准民間反核，經濟部卻在戲院，播放擁核廣告，簡直是"戴著假牙來罵人"！

刊在捷運台北車站，這6公尺高的巨幅廣告，上面印著"隨手省6%電"，還留下5個大空格，上下手扶梯的乘客，對廣告內容，只能略知一二。

“廣告好像在說節約能源，但好像看不太出來是反核廣告”

其實廣告主，是媽媽監督核電廠聯盟，翻出原版設計圖，訴求"隨手省6%電，廢除核四吧"，但在捷運站曝光，廢除核四吧，依照規定不得出現。消息傳出，導演戴立忍，要捷運局"踹共"。

“如果台北捷運局是監獄的話，它是把文字放出去了，它沒有把文字關進來捷運局必須要對此，作出很清楚的回應”

捷運公司做出回應。

“內容的部分是由委託刊登的單位，跟廣告廠商協調後定案的，我們捷運公司並沒有強迫他修正的情形，我們會按照政府相關規定，進行相關審議”

反核廣告受到箝制，媽媽監督核電廠聯盟，決定串聯藝文界，下個月8號，在北中南東，舉辦廢核大遊行，要用實際行動，繼續宣導反核理念。
