Afterwards, Printing Plant, Ministry of Finance; and Taichung City Government jointly organized the anti-corruption video watching and DIY anti-corruption handmade book activities. Allowing participants to print the anti-corruption picture on the handmade book cover with the screen printing press, the DIY activity can deepen participants’ anti-corruption consciousness. In the afternoon, a tourism factory tour was arranged with some fun courses, such as printing the anti-corruption picture with the Gutenberg printing press; and experiencing the magic world of anti-corruption printing.
