Abstract: The strong global demand for new information and communication technology devices had pushed Taiwan’s economic growth rate in 2017 to 2.84%, from 1.41% in 2016. The improving global economy, growth in minimum wage and rising government expenditure are encouraging factors in the near term. Taiwan’s future economic outlook hinges on its technological capability vis-à-vis other regional peers, close production relations with global multinational firms and adaptation to other new consumption products.
