Disappointment was felt by many workers this year when they discovered that the Lunar New Year would be only six days long. A legislator today said all future Lunar New Year holiday periods should be nine days long, but other officials greeted the suggestion with skepticism.
During the Lunar New Year Holiday, hoards of people ascended Yangmingshan to admire cherry blossoms.
Restaurant business was also brisk, making it difficult to get a seat. Members of the service industry expressed support for a suggestion from Legislator Pasuya Yao that future Lunar New Year holidays be set at nine days.

Daily revenues rise by 10 percent. If the number of days were increased by three, it could lead to 20 to 30 percent higher revenue.
Legislator Yao cited data from the Ministry of Transportation which showed tourism output of nearly NT$20 billion during this year’s six-day holiday. That was NT$10 billion lower than the nine-day holiday last year. Meanwhile, for the last day of this year’s holiday, there were an additional 250,000 vehicles on the road compared to 2013.

A Ministry of the Interior official expressed misgivings.

It could lead to an increase in the number of annual holidays or create the need to adjust memorial holidays currently in effect.
According to the Industrial Development Bureau, each additional holiday lowers total revenues for mid-to-small-sized businesses by over NT$30 billion.
