Keelung launched the 'Public Welfare Youth Electric Scooter' subsidy program, offering a subsidy of 10,000 yuan for scrapping old scooters and enabling applicants to ride home for free. Due to a surge in applications, quota limits were implemented in each district starting from the 14th of this month, leading to chaotic situations like overnight queues and fees for queuing services. Concerns over budget led to limiting daily acceptance numbers per district, with complaints from citizens about the queueing frenzy, including reports of charging 500 yuan per hour for queueing services.
