The National Day holiday is a peak period for overseas travel. As the number of Taiwanese people traveling abroad has continued to rise in recent years, incidents of tourists being "unqualified and lacking public morality" have been heard from time to time. Whether it's the recent news of someone defecating on a cruise ship bed, canceling a hotel reservation without reason, or yelling at a cosmetics store clerk, the consequences of one person's mistake may be borne by all Taiwanese people. DailyView Network Temperature Gauge conducted a survey through the "KEYPO Big Data Key Engine" to see what unqualified behaviors Taiwanese people often exhibit abroad and which ones arouse the most public outrage?

No.10 Treat sampling/tasting as an all-you-can-eat

What does "sampling" mean? It's for you to "taste the flavor". But for some reason, some people treat it as "eating for free". Not only do they finish a whole plate by themselves, but there are also those who eat a lot and then don't buy (if they eat a lot, it's probably not because they don't like the taste...). Some stores, unable to bear these losses, have reduced the sampling and trial products or even canceled them. "You have a good time while we suffer". Isn't it angering?

No.9 Making loud noises in enclosed spaces

Do you know that Japanese people hardly make phone calls or chat on the subway? However, tourists abroad are often in a state of "I'm so excited ~~~~". They make loud noises and chat in the carriage, which attracts the side - glances of locals and may even be recorded, leaving a bad impression of "Taiwanese people are noisy" in the hearts of locals. The same goes for making loud noises in exhibition halls such as museums and art galleries, which affects the mood of other visitors and is also a very impolite behavior.

No.8 Damaging/messing up the hotel

Do you still remember the "cruise ship defecation incident" that made the headlines some time ago? The cleaners found that the room was covered in filth everywhere when cleaning the room. The unpublic - spirited behavior aroused the anger of the whole nation. Of course, this is a bit exaggerated, but it's not uncommon to find that guests have cooked instant noodles in the kettle or messed up the sheets and carpets when checking out. Don't think it's okay just because you're abroad. Irresponsible actions may be spread back to Taiwan!

No.7 Letting children cry and make a fuss

"Children will cry anyway!" Many people must have met such parents. They let their children cry and make a fuss, run and jump, affecting other passengers in the same cabin or on the same vehicle, and even affecting traffic safety. They not only ignore it but also act as if it's a matter of course. What's even more outrageous is that sometimes when other passengers try to stop them, the parents will reply, "It's not your child." Such an irresponsible attitude is really infuriating.

No.6 Stocking up on goods

Traveling abroad means shopping like crazy. It's not about whether you can afford it but whether you can buy it. The crowds pack the stores so tightly (it turns out to be a store. If not told, it would be mistaken for a vegetable market). In fact, stores certainly hope for good sales, but they often encounter stockpiling customers with ugly looks, such as sweeping all the products on the shelves at once, leaving later customers empty - handed, or getting angry with the clerks because they can't buy what they want. Not only do the clerks feel wronged, but the customers who miss out are also angry.

No.5 Taking suitcases randomly

There are often such "taking the wrong suitcase" help - seeking posts on PTT and FB groups from time to time. There are name tags on the suitcases, but people just don't look. It's not until they arrive at the hotel they're staying at that they find they've taken the wrong suitcase, making the passenger whose suitcase was wrongly taken wait at the airport and delaying their entire itinerary. Because it really affects other passengers and almost happens every day, it has a very high discussion rate on the Internet.

No.4 Being unpunctual and leaving the group without permission

Whether it's a group tour or independent travel, people without a sense of time just won't be punctual. For a group tour, it affects the whole bus waiting for you. For independent travel, it may cause the itinerary to be completely disrupted, and then problems such as canceled reservations and missing flights may occur. All kinds of difficult - to - deal - with behaviors emerge one after another. So, although having "no sense of time" can be a big or small problem, it's really not advisable!

No.3 Taking pictures randomly in museums/art galleries

Even though there is a sign at the entrance saying "No photos", some people still ignore the regulations. Of course, some only restrict the use of flash. Prohibiting photography is mostly due to copyright issues, and flash is prohibited because some exhibits may be affected by strong light. To protect the exhibits, it has to be done this way. Generally, there will be notices or staff reminders before entering. Still ignoring the regulations and taking pictures at will is not an accident but a matter of no public morality.

No.2 Standing up a restaurant/homestay

In the early days, Japanese hotels didn't charge a deposit when making a reservation. Giving you convenience was regarded as being casual. A large number of travelers standing up reservations not only caused rental losses, but some hotels that provided dinner also wasted all the ingredients. Many well - known restaurants are also like this, which led to many operators later starting to charge deposits from Taiwanese customers and even not accepting reservations. The well - known Japanese restaurant information website Gurunavi also required pre - authorized card payments when making reservations in order to prevent Taiwanese tourists from no - shows when it entered Taiwan.

No.1 Taking pictures crazily regardless of others

When traveling abroad, you want to record everything, big or small. When eating, you want to take pictures of the restaurant entrance, the interior decoration, and the food. But in Japan, except for the food, you can take pictures freely. If you want to take pictures inside the restaurant, it's more polite to get the owner's permission in advance. Even if the store owner agrees, you should avoid taking pictures of other customers. Other countries may not be as strict as Japan, but respecting the store owner and other customers is also basic. Not to mention taking pictures of "breaking off flowers", trampling on flower fields, or trespassing into unopened areas, which are "feats" worthy of making the news. Please don't say you're Taiwanese, okay? (Crying)
