Education and training not only play the key role to promote the sustainable ability of employees, but in the establishment of employees’ work attitudes as well. Moreover, leaders play an important role in promoting the effectiveness of education and training. The objectives of this study were to explore the effect of the police department’s annual subject training on the work attitudes of harbor police. This study also examined the moderating effect of supervisor attitudes on the association between police training effectiveness and police’s work attitudes in expectation to more concretely understand the role of supervisor attitudes in the harbor police’s annual subject training, to consolidate the good work attitude of the police for sustainability. The frontline police officers of Taiwan’s harbor police agency were chosen as the study population. This study adopted the convenience sampling method to conduct the questionnaire survey in August 2019. It requested for the respondents who replied to the questionnaire within 15 days after receiving the questionnaire to be considered as the first respondents. For those who replied to the questionnaire no later than one month were considered as the second respondents. This paper collected a total of 584 questionnaires and 492 were valid. The result of this study showed that education and training had a highly positive effect on the work attitudes of police officers. Moreover, the overall attitudes of supervisors toward police education and training were found to have a significantly positive moderating effect on the association between education and training effectiveness and the police’s work attitudes. The results of this study prove the linkage between the effectiveness of education and training and the supervisor attitudes.

This study was to explore the data of Kinmen (in Taiwan) and Xiamen (in China) Governments regarding the cleaning of marine waste, and the difference in distribution areas according to the monsoon, ocean current and tides, in order to understand the correlation between the marine waste in the Kinmen and Xiamen sea area, and establish a transboundary marine governance mechanism for the Kinmen and Xiamen sea area. For the purpose of this study, relevant literatures of marine waste and marine spatial planning (MSP) were reviewed, followed by the analysis of relevant data of marine waste in the Kinmen and Xiamen sea area. Additionally, in-depth interviews, field investigations, and expert opinions collection were applied, in order to obtain the research implication and draft the frame and practical approach of the ‘Kinmen and Xiamen Marine Spatial Planning’. Relevant studies found that 90% of Kinmen marine waste came from Mainland China, and Jiulong River is regarded as the largest source of pollution in the Kinmen and Xiamen sea area. Monsoons and tides are the main factors affecting the washing of marine waste to Kinmen beaches. In addition, the effectiveness of remediating marine waste in Kinmen sea area alone is limited and the coordinated mechanism of the Kinmen and Xiamen sea area that has not been institutionalized is the major reason. If the local governments of Kinmen and Xiamen establish a joint remediation of marine waste based on the existing cooperation, it could develop a new paragon in marine governance between Kinmen and Xiamen.
