Under the scorching sun, people in Taichung were seen lining up for over 200 meters, with some running on the streets if they couldn't get into the queues. This exaggerated scenario was due to the distribution of consumer vouchers by the Taichung City Government to boost the economy. The queues were spotted in various commercial districts, leading to chaotic situations where adults were seen pulling children to run on the streets amidst the high temperatures, reminiscent of the mask-buying frenzy during the pandemic period. The vouchers could be exchanged at designated locations in Taichung City, allowing people to receive double the value of what they paid.
