What very valuable information!
I am happy to know that there are people in Taiwan who are as interested in old telescopes and observatories as we are.

台灣天文觀測起始物語
日據時代 台灣氣候觀測所
The earliest astronomical observation in Taiwan was in 1896 (明治 29年) when the Taiwan was occupied(日據台灣時代), and began to observe the sun's altitude and time correction with the sextant(六分儀) of the 台北氣候觀測所( Taipei Climate observatory)。
In 1913 (大正6年 ), the Taipei Observatory was established and purchased the first 3.5-inch meridian(子午儀) and 4.5-inch British-made astronomical Alt-azimuth mount(經緯儀)。
In 1938 (明治 13年 ), 日本台北總督府(Meteorological Department of the Taipei Governor-General's Office) was established, and the (台北總督府氣象庁)meteorological observation was officially subordinated to the central unit(中央單位) It also purchased a 10 cm refracting equatorial mount from Goto Optical(東京 五藤光學研究所)。
At about this time, the Governor's Office also began to compile Taiwan's civil calendar(民曆). In 昭和 13年 (1938), the official system of the Meteorological Observatory of the Governor's Office was established。
天文観測、暦編纂、時刻測定、時刻報告、時計検定は気象台の業務であり、これまで天体観測は官邸気象庁の法定任務となっている。
After Taiwan regained control in 1945, in 2011, the (台灣中央氣象局)Taiwan Central Meteorological Bureau purchased a 9-inch APM refractor equatorial mount to continue observing the sun。
