Zhu Yunpeng, United States Department of Economics, University of Maryland, PhD, Taiwan economic scholar, currently corporate insurance Stability Fund Chairman, Taiwan University and Professor of Economics at National Central University. Since 2008 served as “Executive Yuan ‘s” portfolio “and” national policy research foundation “members, for financial core of Ma Ying-jeou Government think-tanks and the cross-strait economic Protocol (ECFA) important driving force,Of the more than four BRIC countries, the key, such as the prescription books. “Caixin Tencent co-produced by” (mission Taipei, Xinhua Tang Jiajie) on June 29 (Friday), on both sides signed economic cooperation framework agreement (ECFA) will attain the second anniversary. However, Taiwan’s foreign trade data appears in the first half of 2012 of a recession warning. Cumulative exports in January-May this year compared with the previous yearRecession 5%; import decline in total amount over 5.3%. As far as the individual regions, Taiwan May decline in exports to mainland China 10%, the United States dropped cent, more setbacks to European exports reached 12.3%. Despite the “Ministry of finance” optimistic analysis, second half of 2012, when the stabilization of the European economy, United States a modest recovery, mainland China pushingBoost consumption and investment policies, are driving the global economy back to temperature, help Taiwan exports in June, resumed positive growth. But in Taiwan “before the Executive Yuan ‘s” Chief Member Zhu Yunpeng, Taiwan’s challenge is to export, diversification of markets, products and ability to take risks; also how through focused talent, constantly seeking breakthrough technological innovation and famous brand and tripping protection masterThinking, with more countries signed a free trade agreement. Q: second inauguration of Ma Ying-jeou made Taiwan two development direction of the economy, an industry to optimize and the other trade liberalization, what do you think of Taiwan economy present challenges? Zhu Yunpeng: Taiwan challenges, in fact, HTC with Hon Hai’s challenge. They represent Taiwan industry in two different models. After these two enterprisesFollow, like dumplings, a bunch of Taiwan small and medium enterprises, are not factories, brand development, product design, only factories, not brand. Manufacturers such as Hon Hai, he faced gross margins of adjustment, wage increases, Foxconn in mainland China faces rising wages in particular test. HTC (HTC), which brands the most critical survival ofIs an on-going innovative technologies, products, HTC to brands in the market place in the world, has invested a very large amount of manpower. Q: you mentioned these two types of Taiwan enterprises, spurred nearly a decade Taiwan economic development of kinetic energy, development of you next to them do you think? Zhu Yunpeng: I think Taiwan companies a great deal of threat from Korea because KoreaCountry’s economy is characterized by the manufacturer and Manpower, covering branding, design, components and production. Taiwan and Korea behind Apple and Samsung phone struggles, though it said that win or lose it’s too early, but Taiwan does face a crisis and should to Korea brings together research and development personnel policy implications. Taiwan actually have a lot of talent, scattered in schools, the Institute where, through “economic”The potential pool of human resources in research and development, and into a force than the Samsung research and development as a whole, with army help Taiwan has status but faced challenges in the international manufacturers, breaking the bottleneck. Q: Taiwan industry also voice want to learn Korea, and a large business and industry chain as a whole, such as former industrial presence integration Panel manufacturers, but in the end nothing came of it, what is experiencingIssue? Zhu Yunpeng: it’s too hard, Korea has its own historical factors, they studied were Japan model, the Government mainly to foster large enterprises, that Taiwan does not, nor does it need to learn. Because the benefits of centralized with centralized, sometimes dangerous, like the Asian financial turmoil, Taiwan distributed at that time showed great competitiveness of SMEs. I think Taiwan should focus on people, But it needs to rely on the Government for help, Samsung itself have more than more than 3,000 developers, HTC has the ability to do 3,000? Costs are hard to load. Q: Taiwan way out of economic need to contract manufacturing thinking, in transition towards developed brand? Zhu Yunpeng: Yes, Hon Hai’s case, now bought Japan sharp (SHARP), also in order to survive,Can no longer continue to contract, to find another way, but this is not easy, because the brand is a gamble, you want to spend a lot of money, and the money spent does not know whether results, also include advertising, marketing, Taiwan since brand lost countless array of enterprise, dead mountains, but it is also not taking the road of could not be. Q: cross-strait economic and trade in Taiwan during industry conversion, what-Like effect? Zhu Yunpeng: actually, Taiwan and mainland China is a division of labour, because manufacturers technology, higher-order management, orders in Taiwan, the factory moved to the Mainland. Alternatively, many higher-order manufacturing-Assembly of the product are available in Taiwan, such as HTC put factories in Taiwan, higher-order Assembly of bicycles, boats also in Taiwan. I know Hon Hai also hoped to mold factory moved back to Taiwan, because the mold isMother of industry. All in all, I think it will get a natural Division of labor between the two sides, in particular, direct shipping, Division system will be formed gradually. Q: what recent planning of Kaohsiung free trade area is the concept? Zhu Yunpeng: free economic and trade zone is Taiwan a way out of the economy. It can provide companies with a reasonable price, a single window service, processing and export, taxationBenefits, job visa to facilitate the flow of people, even on working conditions, you can also consider relaxing the foreign workers. In addition, foreign investment to Taiwan investment industries limited, also can relax there. But is not limited to Kaohsiung, Taoyuan Airport City, the Islands can also be taken into account. Taiwan if it can figure out a few out, feeling different, cross-strait economic and trade can also have a lot of cooperation inFree trade areas on a trial basis. Q: ECFA is not less than two years, a lot of people feel that progress is too slow, was also questioned Taiwan’s foreign trade situation is still difficult, how do you see the future development of cross-strait economic and trade cooperation? Zhu Yunpeng: ECFA has so far only the first chapter, only covers the 16% of trade, is also empty SWTOR Power Leveling, and the pace of progress is too slow. You look at Korea, he was affected by ECFA thornStress, Lee Myung-bak convened an emergency meeting at the Presidential Palace, to accelerate FTA, driven from an emergency meeting to the present, Korea had checked the United States, the European Union and other important trading partners, Sino-Japan-Korea FTA now starting to talk about. Taiwan finished cannot wait for everybody to talk about, the second chapter hasn’t started yet. Q: since the Taiwan Government’s position has repeatedly advocated the need to accelerate the negotiations, what card? Zhu Yunpeng: elections�� Also recently encountered rising oil prices double, mishandling of the securities transaction tax, it is a matter of political climate. When the political climate does not, the Government is called pretty head package, other policies will be slow. Taiwan next should get further with the Chinese mainland on duty-free goods and services, hoping not to fall behind the Korea. Q: Taiwan government pushing the ECFA’s big claim isCan be made by closer cross-strait economic and trade relations, attracting a growing number of countries and Taiwan Chia signed FTA, but now seems to have been to see significant results? Zhu Yunpeng: Although Taiwan and Singapore, and New Zealand free trade agreement had no message, but I know there are progress. Taiwan some departments are more conservative and unwilling to open peer, which all protectionismStarting point: worry that it will impact on our industry, fear of impact domestic employment, but the end result, is that industry cannot survive. United States protection of vehicles, for example, many United States car industry still is unable to survive, and even almost completely collapsed, you must turn to the mainland China market development. I believe that Taiwan must think to adapt, to solve, don’t do to resist globalization wavesTide thing. Journalist comments: 80 ‘s of last century, Taiwan, and South Korea at the same time with labour-intensive, with Singapore, Hong Kong common achievement “four little dragons of Asia” economic miracle but after 90 of the last century, the four little dragons on a different path, new, Hong Kong to embrace foreign capital and finance, Taiwan and South Korea continue deepening the process of manufacturing exports. Since then, Taiwan and Korea more or less notable.20 years later, when Taiwan within the international situation and a political ceiling zero, Korea the Chosun Ilbo and the LG Economic Research Institute published research results, stating that Korea will be held in June 2012 to become the world’s seventh meet the per capita GDP of over 20,000 US dollars, more than the total population of 50 million national, “official among the developed countries.” Taiwan and Korea the most fundamental difference is that attempting toHeart and industry development mode. In the global supply chain, Taiwan has been on both sides of the advantages of Division of labour, Taiwanese visiting the Mainland set up factories to reduce cost, seeking international brand manufacturers OEM orders, although this model for Taiwan has created nearly 20 years of economic growth, but because they cannot grasp the downstream and upstream technologies, marketing channels and subject to major international companies. Poor in the global economyCases of Taiwanese business people contract serious compression of profit, survival increasingly difficult. Contrast, Korea, after 1997 the Asian financial turmoil hit, threatened with bankruptcy after the dapodali, from the export processing, full Steering development brands; more on expanding foreign trade market diablo 3 power leveling, expand round onslaught, within ten years, successively with ASEAN, the European Union, the United States and other major trading partners to sign a free trade agreement.”Official business” in a mode of thinking in international trade, Korea now kinetic energy and multiple risk-bearing capacity of the innovation economy. Has always been to Korea as an important rival Taiwan, internal friction must be stopped as soon as possible, help the police response to the World Council.
