或許這不是全部的台灣，

How is Taiwan? There is no country in the world where the people make so many working hours as in on – 2282 hours a year. Over 30% of the people work more than 62 hours a week.
世上沒有任何一個國家的人像台灣一樣，工作時數每年高達2,282小時，30%的人每週工作超過 62小時。
Taiwan is the second densest populated country in the world. Only in Bangladesh live more people per square kilometer. Although Taiwan is smaller than Switzerland it belongs to the 20 most successful industrial countries; Taiwan is market leader in notebooks and there is no country that has more mobile phones (1.14 per citizen of Taiwan).
台灣人口密度高居世界第二，只低於孟加拉。雖然台灣面積小於瑞士，卻是20個最成功的工業國家之一。台灣是筆記型電腦製造的領導先驅，有世界第三大外匯存款，也是手機密度最高的地區（平均每人擁有1,14支手機）。
Furthermore there are only three countries that have less sex than the Taiwanese, and according to the French magazine 『Elle』, Taiwanese women are the unhappiest women in the world. Taiwan has also the most near sighted people. So how does this all relate to each other?
然而，只有三個國家的性生活是少於台灣，且根據「Elle」雜誌研究指出，台灣女性是世界上最不快樂的。台灣同時也是最多戴近視眼鏡的國家。這些現象之間彼此有何關聯呢？
