06 January 2009

Taiwan's government has revealed that it is planning to introduce a host of new tax incentives that are aimed at attracting around USD8.5bn worth of new foreign direct investment.

Announcing the news on January 5, Taiwan's Minister of Economic Affairs, Yiin Chii-Ming, explained that the government is looking to increase foreign direct investment by around 10% in order to boost the economy during the current recession.

Chii-Ming explained that a large part of this plan would rely heavily on tax incentives:

"We will offer tax incentives and cut red tape to help facilitate procedures for foreign companies to invest in Taiwan and set up research and development centers."
