The recent case of Western Hotel in Taipei, where the floor area ratio soared to 933.33%, the highest in Taipei's history, has ignited discussions and criticisms on the floor area ratio standards on social media. A comparison was made with Jinghua City, which legally applied for a floor area ratio of 840% through incentives and payments, yet faced investigation, while Western Hotel seemingly avoided scrutiny. Online users even suggested that 'buying party membership might be more useful than buying land for development.' The issue has triggered a debate on discrepancies in floor area ratio standards in Taipei.
