President Tsai Ing-wen is calling on Taiwanese businesspeople stationed abroad to
invest in Taiwan. She was speaking on Monday while meeting with businesspeople living in Thailand.
“To summarize, I hope you all can do two things for Taiwan,” said Tsai. “First, come back and invest in Taiwan. Second, help the local industry by making inroads into the Southeast Asian market. These [two things] will not only help boost and transform Taiwan’s economy, but will also bring opportunities for your business.”
She said the fundamentals of Taiwan’s economy have continued to improve and the government is working to make Taiwan’s investment environment more attractive.
Tsai also spoke about the government’s forward-looking infrastructure project as well as other innovations. They include biomedicine, green technology, Internet of Things (Iot), smart machinery, the defense industry, high-value agriculture, as well as the circular economy. [FULL STORY]
