“Our selling point is we have stuff [that] Taiwan doesn't usually have. A lot of the Hawaii items you see around are actually made in Bali, Thailand and Indonesia. We have the real deal.”
Duggar said youngsters are dressing casually but also more adventurously.
“Girls will wear flowers in their hair, or behind their ears, bikinis are worn more often and the feel is getting more relaxed, but there's still a long way to go,” Duggar said.
“I just feel that cities in Taiwan are pretty big and the stress is on youngsters to get an education and make money.
“The lifestyle part of what's happening down here is a window to say, ‘This isn't the only thing.’ You've gotta find a balance. I think that's what happening to the younger people.
“They come here, relax, open up a bit, do an activity, unwind and have fun. It's kind of more like Hawaiian culture and the aloha spirit — Taiwanese style.”
