Headline News

 

MAC minister to discuss cross-strait policy in U.S.

 

Minister Chen Ming-tong of the Mainland Affairs Council (MAC) will visit the United States from 16 – 23 July.

 

In Washington, Chen is expected to meet with officials of the Trump Administration, think tank scholars and overseas compatriots to exchange views on issues of mutual concern, cross-strait policies and developments in cross-strait relations.

 

Chen will also attend an international symposium and discuss Taiwan’s cross-strait policy in New York.

 

Limited impact on Taiwan expected from U.S.-China trade war

 

Taiwan is expected to emerge largely unscathed from a potential U.S.-China trade war, but the government is closely monitoring developments and stands ready to act, the Central Bank forecasts.

 

According to the Central Bank, although Chinese items subject to the additional duty include those sourced from Taiwan, this is not a cause for concern as they are mainly for domestic consumption and account for 0.21 percent of Taiwan’s gross domestic product based on 2017 trade statistics. Affected U.S. products also have no significant connection with Taiwan.

 

Robust fundamentals like abundant foreign reserves, healthy balance of payments and nearly zero foreign debt put the country in favorable conditions to weather fluctuations in related international capital flows, the Central Bank said.
