Overseas direct investmentDownloadContentSummaryThis report estimates that although China and Taiwan are still on shaky political ground, economic exchange between two nations has grown swiftly since 1980. The trade inter-dependency of the two nations has been accomplished through the Taiwan Strait, indirect trade, and trade through a variety of channels, reaching more than $100 billion. Moreover, FDI in China is the second largest foreign investment nations.
This report implies that Taiwanese investment in China will be an important part of economic integration. There are several characteristics related to Chinese and Taiwanese economic exchange. First, since China and Taiwan are divided, as are North and South Korea, their economic exchange and cooperation could help the two Korea pursue economic cooperation. Second, Korea can learn from the policy implication offered by ripple effects in the process of Taiwanese investment in China. Third, by analyzing the features and trends in Taiwanese business investment in China, Korean companies can find several implications concerning investment toward China. -

Economic development, Economic cooperationDownloadContentSummaryKorea's engineering services industry has grown following the industrialization of its economic structure.
The engineering services industry, a representative technology-intensive industry, is in charge of mediating between science and industry. In addition, the engineering services industry is closely linked the manufacturing industry, the construction industry, the academic world, research institutes and companies.
Therefore, the engineering services industry has become an element of production facilities and plays a determinant role in manufacturing productivity. For this reason, it is often called the 'engine of growth' for the service sector.
Recently, the engineering services industry has been in transition from plant engineering to up-to-date technology-intensive sectors such as new material, mechatronics, bionics, factory automation, new energy, information and technology, and environmental engineering.
This report recommends that with its high quality human resources, Korea should foster the engineering service industry as a central business to take appropriate measures for the transition into a highly developed country. -

Economic developmentDownloadContentSummaryThe Treuhandanstalt (THA) was established by the last government of the German Democratic Republic. Now that is has been organized as a public institution with legal capacity which is directly accountable to the Federal authority, its task is to transform the centrally managed collective combines and state-owned firms of the German Democratic Republic into private companies which are able to compete internationally. As far as the public and academia are concerned, however, the policy and financial behavior of the THA are still obscure after the start-up of the currency union. So far the THA has failed to fulfill its duty of disclosure to the intended extent. This paper tries to briefly examine the role of German Treuhandanstalt as the privatization agency, especially the integration of two different economic systems and derive implications for the coming reunification of the two countries in the Korean peninsula. It is organized as follows. In section 2, the significance of privatization of state-owned property in converting economic system is discussed. Section 3 presents the role and activities of the Treuhandanstalt in the process of German unification. In section 4 the significance of the Treuhandanstalt on the Korean unification will be derived based upon the discussions so far. The paper ends with a summary of results and implications in section 5.
