Wenever somebody is buying from an agent it is of great importance that the farm from where the fish is sourced is identified. The same holds true for Koishops.. If there are more farms the fish are coming from it is essential that the shipments are prepared separately and that the agent knows about the paperwork prior to shipment. If the agents does not know his paperwork, then its not really professional, and it is to be expected that the rest of the shipping process follows on the same level.

The Taiwan Koi Show 2005, held at the outskirts of Taipei, turned out to be a beautiful event. After a final rush to get everything organized, the organizers were able to line up an impressive display of Koi.
The bigger sizes saw higher competition as usual, due to new koi show regulations, that required Koi, smaller than 40cm to be individually packed in plastic bags. Consequently some participants turned their focus from competition in all segments, to competing only with 40+ cm Koi. We believe, that such a high number of bigger Koi gave the championship more power. |

 Koi Appreciation at Interkoi 2005 in Germany Japanese Koi Culuture in Taiwan
During the colonial days, a great deal of Japanese culture was injected
into Taiwan’s society. Among this cultural diversification was the
appreciation of Japanese language, art-work, Bonsai and Nishikigoi,
which are still regarded as symbols of status, luck and beauty.
Up to this day, the appreciation of Koi, in natural settings and
Japanese gardens, while performing tea ceremony, is a popular way of
relaxation.
Places like monasteries, schools, hotels and tea houses, which are part
of every day life, maintain Koi ponds for the pleasure of their patrons
and improvement of Feng-Shui.
Taiwan feels a little bit like home to most visitors from Japan.
From other sources:
The German KLAN-Magazine, which is the official
publication of the German KLAN Koi Club, published an article about the
Sing Chang Koifarm and the cultural link between Japan and Taiwan. This
link became strong during Japan's colonial rule of Taiwan. The
Sing Chang Koi Farm of Taiwan, a family-run enterprise, is a good
example for the cultural link: Grandfather A-Gong, who grew up under
Japanese colonial rule, is a native Japanese speaker, studied abroad in
Japan before the war and even flew Japanese ZERO fighters (see photos
below). |
