A foreign netizen raised a question about the necessity of the EasyCard in Taiwan, citing a past unfortunate experience of losing a similar card in Hong Kong. With responses pouring in, many advised that although not necessary, having such a card in Taiwan is highly recommended as it saves time and makes things more convenient, especially since these cards are widely used not only for transportation but also for shopping at convenience stores and supermarkets, offering quick payment and even serving as a souvenir.
