As the number of social housing units in Taipei remains insufficient, with seven new units expected to be completed in the second half of the year, reaching a total of 15,172 households, concerns arise over the proposed change in the rental fee system from income-based to identity-based. This shift may lead to a 'one city, two systems' situation and exclude truly vulnerable populations from receiving assistance. The debate between using income-based or identity-based criteria for determining affordable rent continues, with implications for the legitimacy of social housing policies as market rents rise.
