MOEA Taiwan

Robust industrial development has not only fueled Taiwan’s miraculous economic growth over the past half-century, but has also laid a solid economic basis for the nation’s continued survival. With the acceleration of liberalization and globalization and technological innovation around the world, Taiwanese companies and companies operating from Taiwan face challenges from others in fighting for global market share. In this age of “high-speed enterprises,” the government has an unshirkable mission and duty to create an operating environment conducive to business development. As the agency in charge of administering the national economy, the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) has implemented various economic policies and measures to help our industries reinforce their competitive advantage at different stages in Taiwan’s economic development.
