In particular, with Taiwan's high property prices and limited space, both in homes and offices many people are in the habit of stacking furniture high; some cabinets have large areas of glass or are filled with fragile knick-knacks, while others are top-heavy and easily toppled by a quake.
尤其台灣房價貴、空間小，不管辦公室還是住家，許多人都習慣將傢具堆高，有的傢具嵌有大型玻璃或擺滿易碎裝飾品，有的傢具上層堆得重而下層輕，「頭重腳輕」地輕輕一震就倒了。
