The tribal people made two requests, however: First, they hoped that the government wouldn't repossess their reservation in the mountains, so that they could go back to visit and to plant crops. "Without agricultural lands in the mountains, we'd lose our roots, and we'd starve to death in the flatlands!"
只是族人有兩個要求，第一是希望政府不要徵收村民在山上的保留地，讓他們能回鄉去務農耕作，「若少了山上的農作，我們的『根』就被拔掉了，在平地會餓死的！」
