According to law, government projects for contracts are awarded by public tender must be awarded to the lowest bidder. Since concrete is the cheapest and simplest material, the natural result is that everyplace in Taiwan you see buildings and infrastructure projects made of ugly, low-quality concrete.
為大地留白按照法令，政府工程公開招標必須由最低價者得標，而水泥是最簡單、便宜的建材，自然而然的，台灣舉目所見都是醜陋、品質不佳的水泥建築和公共工程。
