                                              Nishimuro Noji

                 Nishimuro  Noji  was  born  in  Nara  Prefecture.  He
            served at the Penghu Prefectural Police Station in 1912.
            During  his  tenure  as  a  police  officer,  he  noticed  the
            potential of Penghu's fishery; he thus turned to work in an
            aquaculture company after quitting his public servant job.
            Besides  managing  the  Nishimuro  Main  Store  alongside
            other branches and pharmacies, Nishimuro also presented
            himself as a successful businessman by raking in sizable
            revenue via a business harvesting “Tiancao” produced in
            Wangan. His shop is now a designated store for the navy.
            He  is  also  a  member  of  the  Magong  Town  Council,  and
            serves his region enthusiastically.
