In order to prevent the loss of national territory the battle was joined to put up dikes even in sea water where no person would go. As of today, Taiwan has nearly 600 kilometers of jetties, breakwaters and dikes. If you discount the east coast, which is mostly sharp cliffs, almost all of the remaining edge of Taiwan has been surrounded by dikes.
台灣目前已築海堤近六百公里，扣除絕崖峭壁的東海岸，已幾乎被海堤團團包圍了。
