NOWnews today’s news report mentioned that Justin’s first reason is Taiwan’s "public safety". Compared with other countries, it is rare to have your things get stolen in Taiwan. When he was living in South Africa before, someone tried to enter their window in the middle of the night. Almost all South Africans have experienced being robbed.
Also, in Taiwan, it is safe for girls to walk outside at night, but in Western countries, girls rarely walk on the road by themselves at night.

The second reason is "convenience." In Taiwan, one can buy things, pay bills, and withdraw or receive money at convenience stores. Also, Taiwan’s internet is fast, convenient, and cheap, which makes Taiwan a great place for Justin.
The third point is "great food". There are many night markets in Taiwan, with a wide variety of foods to eat. There is no need to worry about being hungry and having nothing to eat at night. Justin also said that in South Africa, there is no way to buy food after 8pm in the evening, unlike in Taiwan, he can eat what he wants to eat at any time.
Justin said: "We, who live in Taiwan, must have confidence in Taiwan. Don't keep saying that Taiwan is a lost cause, it is not, it is a beautiful island." It is a very happy thing to be able to live in Taiwan.
