Navigating the Storm: Taiwan's Path Forward Amidst Global Trade Winds

Financial Expert Weighs In on Taiwan's Response to Shifting Global Trade Dynamics, Urging Strategic Action.

The recent announcement by former US President **Donald Trump** regarding reciprocal tariffs has sent ripples of concern across the globe. In a Facebook post, **謝金河 (Xie Jinhe)**, Chairman of Wealth Magazine, offered his perspective on the situation, noting the tension created by the move.

He highlighted that **Trump's** aggressive tariff strategy primarily targets China.

**謝金河 (Xie Jinhe)** pointed out the reactions from other world leaders. He mentions the words of the US Treasury Secretary, who warned against retaliation, stating that it would only invite further taxation. Even Japan's Prime Minister, 石破茂 (Shigeru Ishiba), reportedly expressed concern about being targeted, given Japan's substantial investment in the US. In Taiwan, Premier 卓榮泰 (Zhuo Rongtai) and his cabinet proposed an 88 billion TWD subsidy plan, which **謝金河 (Xie Jinhe)** suggests may not address the core issues.
