"Out on the plains, my little brother can't support himself on NT $ 30,000 per month." The government is currently providing temporary work to those in the lowlands, but A-nu notes that when that runs out, there's no land in Shanlin to farm and no work to be had nearby. He doesn't know how tribespeople are going to get by in the lowlands.
阿怒說，何況現在政府提供的都是短期工作，短工結束後，杉林沒有農地可耕，附近也沒什麼工作機會，他實在不知道下山族人以後靠什麼生活。
