| Abstract: | 突破貿易障礙,增進中美與台灣之間的貿易
On the end of August 2003, Taiwan signed its historic first free trade agreement, and it made so with the Central American Republic of Panama, at the same time, the rest of Central American countries pledge to increase the commercial relations with Taiwan. Since then, governments on both regions have been promoting Central America as Taiwan’s gateway to the Americas and Taiwan as Central America’s gateway to Asia, in terms of international commerce.
Through this research we question whether these statements are accurate and if in fact, Central American companies can increase their presence in the Taiwanese or other Asian markets, with the optimum goal of generating at least some wealth for their own nations through private initiatives. The arguments have been made after the analysis of primary and secondary data for the sake of objectiveness.
Results show that the almost non-existent presence of Central American companies or their products in the Taiwanese market is not only due to the many barriers inherent of the economy and the market (such as distance, low competitiveness in Central America compared with high competitiveness in Taiwan, or lack of knowledge of the local market and culture) but also due to a lack of interest of vision from business people, especially those in Central America.
However, in the market exist enough conditions to make feasible a positive increase in the trade balance between Central America and Taiwan at the moment when new entrepreneurs dare to venture to capture a piece of the Taiwanese and other Asian markets.
Moreover, the appearance in the market of some mechanisms such as electronic exchanges or other types of e-commerce applications, as well as the proliferation of trading companies might also have a significant positive impact on the trade of goods and services between the two studied regions. |
