The crown disease epidemic rays all over the world, and the European epidemic has surpassed Asia except China; the U.S. epidemic has also deteriorated rapidly, the stock market fluctuates huge shocks, impacts the global financial market, and forced the Fed to cut interest rates at one yard to save the economy.The United States had previously miscalculated the situation, failed to grasp the timing of epidemic prevention, and made the situation out of control; whether it would follow Italy to deteriorate into another Wuhan, which has attracted attention from all parties.President Trump finally announced on March 13 that the United States has entered an emergency and will provide $ 50 billion in resistance.Taiwan has listed a total of 71 countries such as China, Hong Kong, Macao, South Korea, and Europe, and Central Asia, and requires people to avoid traveling to local tourism.These development shows that the epidemic is still expanding around the world.
The severity of the epidemic has far exceeded SARS in 2003. This phenomenon can seem to be used to support a view that globalization is a major pusher in this pneumonia. Therefore, the crown disease epidemic can be regarded as a major frustration of globalization.Specifically, the international tourism, international trade and investment that are derived from international tourism, international trade and investment that are derived from non -far -fel and cost -increasingly cost -derived business interaction, and less and less border controls have allowed the epidemic to easily spread to all over the world around the world.EssenceThis view naturally obtains an inference: in order to reduce similar virus risks, countries should propose appropriate policies to achieve a certain degree of de-globalization, or Anti-Globalization.
For example, state establishment regulations require all enterprises, even households, and all immigrants in China to maintain an appropriate amount of equipment (such as masks, alcohol, protective clothing);Products must maintain considerable safety stocks and production activities in China. If relevant companies want to invest in foreign countries, they must pay appropriate national security tax; key components shared by the industry must maintain high proportion of domestic production;For personnel, special control must be accepted in and out of the country to avoid the lack of appropriate epidemic prevention.
However, even if the above -mentioned approach is really established by some countries, it is actually only increasing the cost of globalization. At most, it can slightly slow down the speed of globalization. It is impossible to cause the effect of de -globalization or anti -globalization.
Similar to the US -China trade war launched by the US Trump administration, due to the division of global production chains, it has become two sets of supply chains in Pan the United States and non -American, and because of the loss of economic economy to increase their production costs, it will produce the effect of de -globalization.The pneumonia epidemic or other virus raging is a short -term phenomenon and will gradually pass, but the trade war such as the US -China trade war can always become a killer of globalization.
However, the crisis is also a turnaround. Pneumonia cracks down on existing business, especially economic activities that people contact with people, but it also brings new business opportunities due to the needs of goods distribution and various services.Existence, but it will grow rapidly due to severe pneumonia.
They can basically be divided into three categories: one is due to the needs of safety protection. The epidemic prevention supplies, including masks, non -contact body temperature measureds, disinfection jets, epidemic prevention masks and clothing, etc.The event replaces the so -called home economy of the original work and leisure, such as home learning, home work, video conferences, home medical care, home entertainment, home shopping, home restaurants, including 5G and other network equipment and services, online equipment and services, online online, onlineLearning and entertainment, e -commerce, long -distance medical care, takeaway delivery, and call service; third is to avoid contact services for physical contact, such as various public and private electronic service systems, reports, meals, meals, meals, meals, and delivery provided by robots and dronesDelivery, cash revenue and expenditure, single -seat isolation consumer.
The above -mentioned demand and service needs derived from the epidemic may occur in the country or from abroad (such as a mask order from overseas); if it is from abroad, even if Taiwanese companies are welcome to invest in to reduce the risk of epidemic prevention in the country.The connotation of globalization further promotes the degree of globalization.
Therefore, the answer is very clear that the crown disease epidemic will not cause global frustration; and after the epidemic control, the masses will make adjustments to life because the masses will not adjust their lives.The corporate community should flexibly master the new business opportunities, and the government should also work hard to play a good role in assistance.
