The Cross -Strait Economic Cooperation Architecture Agreement (ECFA) implemented the past ten years on September 12 this year. At a critical moment of the current cross -strait relations, it has fallen into a low tide or even a crisis.Timing and practices.
Looking back on the signing of ECFA, after the rotation of the Taiwan party in 2008, a large advertisement was published in the industrial and commercial community, requiring the government and the mainland to sign the Free Trade Agreement (FTA), so as to avoid the ASEAN-China Free Trade Zone will be reduced in 2010.The exclusion effect on the export of Taiwan is not good for the economic development of Taiwan. The Malaysian government follows public opinion and expresses the willingness to consult the mainland. Under the signing of a number of cooperation agreements on both parties, mainland China also responded in good faith. Finally, in June 2010The agreement was signed on the 29th, and it took effect on September 12 after being passed in the Legislative Yuan.
In all fairness, in the two politically opposed to each other, one party also claims that without excluding the use of force using the other party, it is possible to sign a free trade agreement with each other and make economic and trade cooperation. It may be the world's first.Especially in Taiwan's collection of free and democratic capitalist models, the mainland still has a large socialist centralist system of state -owned enterprises. There are huge differences in the two economic systems. Whether it can effectively implement the free trade agreement and make people doubt.However, if you can successfully promote the free trade agreement on both sides of the strait, in addition to making the mainland the vast hinterland of the development of Taiwanese enterprises, injecting a dose of strong heart injection of the Taiwan economy can also reduce the tension between the two parties, continue to communicate and develop peacefully.Malaysia's thinking.
Cross -strait counseling representatives quickly identified the four agreements signed: architecture agreement, goods trade agreement, service trade agreement, and dispute resolution mechanism agreement.If you want to be more active, the architecture protocol is like a large set of dishes that have a large meal.At present, it is only the previous dish, but it comes with an early harvest list, allowing hundreds of items to be considered to be exempted from tariffs in advance, and about ten service industries are open to each other.Under the Solar Flower Student Games, the service trade that has been signed but cannot take effect, as well as the interrupted cargo trade and the subsequent dispute resolution mechanism, has been put on hold.Therefore, the current FTA between the two sides of the strait has only been brought out of the past dishes but shelved the double main dishes and desserts.
In the past ten years, people have often commented that ECFA's performance is not good.Because it was just this appetizer, the Taiwan side used the 539 goods provided by the land consulted to tariff free of tariffs and 18 agricultural products provided by Taiwan.Obtaining tariffs from US $ 6.63 billion has also made the mainland the largest export place for Taiwan's agricultural products. In addition, Taiwan's banking industry has also opened 24 branches in the mainland, 12 insurance industries go to Lotage Stock Investment, and more than 20 securities industries have become.An important source of profit in the financial industry.If both main dishes can be implemented, of course, the benefits are far more than the previous dishes. This is also when South Korea began to consult on both sides of the strait. It is difficult to compete with Taiwan with economic cooperation on both sides of the strait.Competitive advantage.
After that, it may be that the government is eager to make the financial industry invest in land to make a profit, and processed in advance to the more complicated service trade agreement that affects the more complex service trade agreements, which will be more likely to show the trade agreement of the goods with free trade benefits., Make some flaws be fully used by the green camp, and have infinitely enlarged theoretically, theoretically possible, but in fact, it will not cause negative impact at all.The dispute agreement stops completely.In fact, the result of young people's anti -service trade allows a good opportunity to cultivate vision and ability in the mainland to completely disappear, and abandon the opportunity to open up the majority of markets, which is embarrassed.
Most people in Taiwan understand that Taiwan has a huge trade surplus to the mainland, and the economy cannot be separated from the mainland. It must have an institutional arrangement in order to strengthen Taiwan's economic foundation in a crisis.National security and promotion prospects.However, the Cai government completely ignored the actual situation. On the 10th anniversary of the ECFA, we suggested that the government uses wisdom to resolve cross -strait relations.
