Law-abiding
Civilians under the Japanese rein
For the sake of easier governing, the Japanese established a system of residence
listing and land property listing in order to better understand Taiwan's population
spread. They worked very hard to implement the system, consequently, the civilians
learned to abide by the law from then on. During that period of time, police
officers were very powerful and just, even though people were ruled under
high-handed measures. However, the natives' tough life they endured in the
high mountains had made them tough and indomitable, which further led them
to strongly oppose to Japanese education and Wu-Fon Massacre in the end.
