Taiwan: an "omnidirectional" regional operations center?
Article Abstract:
Taiwan's developmental strategy is an unprecedented method which utilizes government intervention in business as a tool for compensating for structural limitations and a lack of natural resources. The model aims to transform the country into an "omnidirectional" regional operations center. The method is a radical departure from strategies of its neighboring countries, including Japan's, which is considered to be the region's model for development.
