Linpien residents break into smiles at the mention of wax apples. Standing beside a wax apple tree, Chen Ching-yu, of the town hall's local administration section, says cheerfully: "Wax apples have suddenly become our major revenue-earner, and they've put our little town on the map!"
林邊社區居民一提到蓮霧就立即笑逐顏開，站在蓮霧樹邊的林邊鄉公所地方自治課員陳慶裕即開心說：「現在蓮霧已經一躍成為我們這裡最重要的經濟果樹啦，也使我們林邊這塊小地方因蓮霧而聞名！」
