立法院江啟臣副院長於本（10）日清晨與羅廷瑋委員前往雪梨魚市場（Sydney Fish Market, SFM）參訪，由營運經理Gus Dannoun接待，並導覽魚市場營運模式及相關硬體設備。他說明該魚市場於今年初正式落成，已啟用八週，新場館採取「功能分流」設計，引入數位化的「荷蘭鐘式拍賣」模式，更將批發、拍賣、理貨、零售等作業分流，分別配置於專屬作業層；其開放式建築結構，讓上層零售區的遊客能在安全距離下，清楚俯瞰底層作業區的工作情形。導覽結束後，雪梨魚市場執行長Daniel Jarosch親自向訪問團表達竭誠歡迎，並強調新落成的雪梨魚市場堪稱世界級的水產物流中心，亦期盼透過交流，與台灣相關產業分享現代化場館經營與空間規畫之成功經驗。參訪歷時約1小時30分，並於致贈紀念品及合影後圓滿結束。
Early in the morning of March 10, Legislative Yuan Vice President Dr. Johnny C. Chiang (江啟臣), accompanied by KMT Legislator Lo Ting-Wei, visited the Sydney Fish Market (SFM). They were received by SFM Operations Manager Gus Dannoun, who gave an introduction about the market’s operational model and facilities. He explained that the newly constructed market officially opened earlier this year and has been in operation for eight weeks. The new facility adopts a digitalized Dutch auction clock system and features a function-based layout, with wholesale trading, auctions, sorting, and retail activities each allocated to dedicated floors. Its open architectural design allows visitors in the upper retail area to safely overlook operations in the lower-level working areas. Following the tour, SFM CEO Daniel Jarosch personally extended a warm welcome to the delegation. He emphasized that the newly completed Sydney Fish Market is a world-class seafood logistics hub and expressed hope that, through such exchanges, Australia and Taiwan can share successful experiences in modern market management and spatial planning. The visit lasted approximately one and a half hours and concluded with an exchange of commemorative gifts and a group photo.
隨後，江副院長偕羅廷瑋委員與澳洲聯邦技職署（Jobs and Skills Australia, JSA）署長Barney Glover會晤。G署長首先介紹JSA的職掌及工作梗概，表示該署透過大數據研析澳洲就業市場現況與預測發展趨勢，為政府提供前瞻政策建言；G署長提及，澳洲作為移民國家，其「技術移民計畫」（Skilled Migration Program）期望落實「需求導向移民」，針對醫療、教育、建築及數位科技等關鍵領域長期缺工問題提出對策。江副院長表示，台灣目前亦面臨缺工挑戰，澳洲在應對多元文化背景移民的經驗，頗值台灣借鏡。副院長另指出，台灣深受少子化衝擊，部分大學面臨停招困境，這對國家長期競爭力與人力資源布局構成嚴峻挑戰，望就此節與G署長深入探討解決之道。雙方隨後針對產業落差、人才缺口、高等教育轉型及半導體教育等議題廣泛交換意見。會談歷時約1小時，並於致贈紀念品及合影後，結束本次交流。
Afterward, Vice President Chiang and Legislator Lo met with Barney Glover, Commissioner of Jobs and Skills Australia (JSA). Commissioner Glover first introduced the agency’s responsibilities and main areas of work, noting that JSA analyzes Australia’s labor market through big data to assess current employment conditions and forecast future trends, thereby providing forward-looking policy recommendations to the government. He also explained that, as a nation built on immigration, Australia’s Skilled Migration Program seeks to implement a demand-driven migration approach to address long-term labor shortages in key sectors such as healthcare, education, construction, and digital technology. Vice President Chiang responded by saying that Taiwan is currently facing similar labor shortages, and that Australia’s experience in managing immigration within a multicultural society offers valuable lessons for Taiwan. He also pointed out that Taiwan is deeply affected by declining birth rates, with some universities having to suspend enrollments due to insufficient student numbers, posing significant challenges to the nation’s long-term competitiveness and human resource planning. Vice President Chiang expressed his hope to further discuss potential solutions with Commissioner Glover. The two sides then exchanged views on issues including industrial mismatches, talent shortages, higher education transformation, and semiconductor education. The meeting lasted approximately one hour and concluded with an exchange of commemorative gifts and a group photo.
江副院長續偕羅廷瑋委員參訪雪梨輕軌（Sydney Light Rail），由管理公司ALTRAC執行長Duncan Edghill及營運公司Transdev營運總經理Annabel Castledine等人接待。Edghill執行長首先介紹雪梨輕軌發展歷程及未來願景，表示作為大雪梨地區的重要公共運輸系統，雪梨輕軌已成為帶動城市轉型的重要動力；輕軌建設所帶動的都市更新，成功促進沿線地區大規模市容整建，其中最具代表性的案例，是將雪梨市區最繁忙的幹道「喬治街」（George Street），轉型為輕軌專用道路，重塑市中心都市景觀並改善交通流量。雙方並就都市規劃、軌道運輸經營管理、技術交流及公共運輸服務等議題深入交換意見。隨後江副院長亦親自體驗輕軌模擬器，實地瞭解其操作與系統運作。此次交流及體驗行程歷時約1小時，於致贈紀念品及合影後結束交流。
Vice President Chiang and Legislator Lo then visited the Sydney Light Rail system, where they were welcomed by Duncan Edghill, CEO of ALTRAC, the system’s management company, and Annabel Castledine, Managing Director of Transdev, its operating company. CEO Edghill first introduced the development history and future vision of the Sydney Light Rail. He noted that, as a key public transportation system in Greater Sydney, the light rail has become an important driver of urban transformation. The urban renewal associated with the system has facilitated large-scale redevelopment along its routes. One of the most notable examples is the transformation of George Street—once the busiest thoroughfare in central Sydney—into a light rail-dedicated corridor, reshaping the city center’s urban landscape while improving traffic flow. Both sides also engaged in in-depth discussions on topics including urban planning, rail transit management, technological exchange, and public transportation services. Vice President Chiang also experienced the light rail simulator to gain a firsthand understanding of its operation and system management. The visit and related activities lasted approximately one hour and concluded with an exchange of commemorative gifts and a group photo.
午後，江副院長偕同羅廷瑋委員前往雪梨北郊萊德市政府（City of Ryde）拜會市長Trenton Brown。市長對訪團表達誠摯歡迎，並介紹轄內麥考瑞創新園區（Macquarie Park），指出該園區為澳洲首座且最成功的高科技產業園區之一。他表示，萊德市近年積極與台灣各城市就半導體與科技創新產業交流經驗，期盼未來持續拓展更全面的實質合作。江副院長感謝市府團隊分享發展經驗，並表示過去曾擔任立法院與英國、新加坡等國之國會友好協會會長，長期致力透過國會外交深化雙邊關係，拓展各領域合作；台灣與擁有豐富天然資源的澳洲在經濟上具有高度互補性，其家鄉台中市亦具備堅實的精密製造產業基礎，台積電亦在當地設有先進製程工廠，未來若能結合雙方軟硬體優勢，將有助於持續深化台澳合作關係。江副院長並表示，希望未來與萊德市政府保持密切聯繫，持續探索更多合作機會。雙方隨後就園區發展願景及教育合作等議題交換意見。會談歷時約1小時，於互贈紀念品並合影後結束交流。
In the afternoon, Vice President Chiang and Legislator Lo visited the City of Ryde in northern Sydney and met with Mayor Trenton Brown. Mayor Brown warmly welcomed the delegation and introduced Macquarie Park, located within the city’s jurisdiction, noting that it is one of Australia’s earliest and most successful high-tech industrial parks. He explained that in recent years, the City of Ryde has actively engaged in exchanges with Taiwanese cities in the semiconductor and technology innovation sectors, and expressed hope to further expand comprehensive and substantive cooperation in the future. Vice President Chiang thanked the city government for sharing its development experience. He noted that he had previously served as chair of parliamentary friendship associations between Taiwan and countries such as the United Kingdom and Singapore, and has long been committed to strengthening bilateral relations and expanding cooperation through parliamentary diplomacy. He added that Taiwan and Australia, which has rich natural resources, are highly complementary economically. His hometown, Taichung City, also has a strong foundation in precision manufacturing, and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) operates advanced manufacturing facilities there. He further noted that if both sides can integrate their respective strengths in hardware and software, Taiwan-Australia cooperation can be further strengthened in the future. Vice President Chiang also expressed his hope to maintain close contact with the City of Ryde government and continue exploring additional opportunities for cooperation. Both sides then exchanged views on the development vision of the industrial park and educational collaboration. The meeting lasted approximately one hour, followed by a commemorative gift exchange and a group photo.
