1. Roaming Around Laiyi Township  來義鄉遊記 Laiyi Township  is east of  Xinpi  and north of  Chunrh .  It's very big, but not many people live there.  Most of the people that do are members of the Paiwan Tribe.  Their larger villages are all near the western edge of the township.  來義鄉 位於 新埤 東部, 春日 的北部。 來義鄉 很大,可是人口很少。居民大部分是 排灣族 。他們最大的部落在 來義鄉 的西部。 Several villages in Laiyi have been moved from their original locations.  Thus there's " Laiyi Village " and " Old Laiyi Village ."  Is it because of climate change?  Or just because people moved away?  I know of one village that was relocated after an especially strong typhoon, but there are others I'm not so sure about.  來義鄉 的幾個部落是從原來的地方遷移來的,所以有 來義部落 跟 舊來義村部落 。是世界氣候變遷嗎?還是因為居民想搬到別的地方?我聽說其中一個部落是受到颱風重創而遷村,可是其他部落我就不清楚了。 According to the last census, there are 2,262 people living in Laiyi. 上次的人口統計表示 來義鄉 的人口是2,262人。 That village on the left is  Nanhe , across the Lili River from Chunrh. 照片裡左邊的部落是 南和 ,與 春日 各據 力里溪 的二邊。 The
