Economic Transformation of Taiwan, Roc

By Kwoh-Ting Li and Guoding Li

Since the Communists gained control of mainland China 40 years ago, Taiwan has transformed itself from an embattled and impoverished island to one of the world's leading trading nations today, with a massive balance of payments surplus. The achievement is all the more remarkable as the country has scarcely any natural resources and has had to maintain an expensive defence capability, unlike Japan.
