Forum to address investment in China

In recent years, media reports have indicated that local firms have to date invested over US$100 million on the other side of the Strait, creating challenges to both Taiwan’s investors and authorities. In the context of China’s 11th five-year plan for economic and social development adopted in 2006, questions regarding Taiwan investments have become especially “politically sensitive.” An important aspect of the plan covers regulations regarding the investment environment, which aim to encourage overseas firms to invest in China, but have had a tremendous impact on Taiwan’s ability to retain and attract foreign investors.

Accordingly, the day-long forum will cover various subjects related to Taiwan investment in mainland China, such as protecting the interests of Taiwan investor through an analysis of tax and labor policies across the Strait. Overall, the forum will strive to propose a new vision for Taiwan’s business investment on the mainland.

The event will be held on Oct. 13, at the Mentor International Headquarters in Taipei City (12F, No. 98, Nanjing North Rd., Sec. 2) from 8:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. The forum will be sponsored by Sino-American Silicon Products Inc., Mentor Hair-Style Corp., the Department of Investment Services of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, the Economic Daily News, Mingshin Technology Corp and the Taiwan Investors Association in China.

For more information, contact the event organizers directly at (02) 8732-3216 or (02) 8732-0576.
