Hsin Ping-lung observes that when promoting industrial development in the past, the government stressed "leaving the farm but not the village," and "home and factory together." Thus industrial parks spread throughout rural areas. For instance, in Taoyuan County alone, there are seven small to medium-sized indus trial estates in places such as Pa-te, Tayuan and Kuanyin.
辛炳隆指出，以往政府發展產業，強調的是「離農不離村」、「家庭即工廠」，因此工業區遍佈鄉鎮，光是一個桃園縣，就有八德、大園、觀音等七個中小型工業區。
