    INFLUENCE OF THE THREE LINKS AGREEMENT ON THE BEHAVIOR OF TAIWAN AIRPORTS: A TWO-STAGE DEA ANALYSIS Lu Yang1 ABSTRACT Taiwan is a small island with a relatively large number of airports. These airports show great disparity in terms of passenger volume and cargo tonnage. This paper in the first part evaluates the efficiency and productivity of Taiwanese airports using a panel data set, to verify the ones with lower efficiency performances. DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) and Malmquist index methods are applied. In the second stage the changes of these scores are analyzed in different regression methods to test the influence of the Three Link agreement between China and Taiwan. It reveals that airports in Taiwan with routes to China have lower efficiency scores but their productivity grows faster than that of the other airports. This paper also confirmed that airports on offshore islands have higher efficiency scores and productivity.

INTRODUCTION Taiwan is an island off the southeast coast of mainland China, facing the Pacific in the other side, consisting of a main Taiwan Island and several offshore islands. Taiwan has a natural advantage in international aeronautic transportation in the Asia-Pacific region: it is only 90 minutes away from Hong Kong and even less time to Shanghai by air. The flight time it costs from Taipei to Seoul and Tokyo are 140 minutes and 180 minutes respectively.

  • Travel Information
    Travel Information worldhospitalcongress.org /travel-information/ Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (IATA: TPE), Taiwan’s main international airport, is located 40km to the southwest of Taipei, and provides privileged connections to major Asian cities and North America. The airport has direct buses to Taipei, Taichung and other nearby cities. Alternatively, there are also shuttles to HSR Taoyuan station for high-speed train connections to other major cities. Taipei Songshan Airport (IATA: TSA) in downtown Taipei serves mostly domestic flights only, plus limited flights to China, Tokyo’s Haneda airport, and Seoul’s Gimpo International Airport. In addition to above two airports, Kaohsiung International Airport (KHH), is located in southern Taiwan and also the gateway to other Asian cities, such as China, Hong Kong, Tokyo Narita, Singapore, Bangkok, etc. Local Transport From Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport to Taipei Buses from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport run every 15 minutes to Taipei (NT$115 to NT$150) from 4.30am to 12.20am. A taxi (40 to 60 minutes) to the city costs NT$1200 to NT$1400. When the MRT (rapid transit) line running between the airport and Taipei opens (scheduled for early 2017), it will make travel between the two faster and more convenient. More information for public transport, please click here. MRT The Mass Rapid Transit, or more commonly known as the MRT, provides travelers around the cities of Taipei an easy means of metro transportation. Passengers can enjoy a nice air conditioned ride to the Maokong Gondola, Zoo, and other parts of Taipei filled with eatery, museums, and shops.

New York: Routledge, 2015. 260 pp. $145 (cloth). Over the last quarter of a century, more than a hundred books devoted to Taiwan’s geography, topography, and cartography have been published in Taiwan, a large percentage of which are historical or regional in focus. Perhaps the first major product of this cottage industry was a collaborative endeavor between the Belgian publisher Mappamundi and its Taiwanese counterpart, Nan Tian, entitled The Authentic Story of Taiwan (Vertente, Xu, and Wu 1991). Han Sheng and Yuan Liu, both well-known private publishers, followed suit a few years later with reprintings of seventeenth-century Dutch maps of Formosa and the first Japanese survey maps of Taiwan, respectively. 1 Subsequently, municipal and county governments each funded the collection, research, and publication of historical charts and maps particular to their own regions, a practice that continues even today.2 Historical geographers soon completed detailed analyses of Dutch, Ming, and Qing imperial maps,3 perhaps stimulating the reproduction and sale of facsimile copies of large imperial scroll maps.4 At the turn of the twenty-first century, national museums began to hold major exhibitions of historical maps of Taiwan, and established publishers (such as Wei Dewen’s Nan Tian) assisted these institutions in printing exhibition catalogs for a public eager to invest in such cartographic materials.5 Before that, in 1996, a geographic information system (GIS) lab was established in the Institute of History and Philology at Academia Sinica, which inaugurated yet another phase in this fascination with Taiwan’s geography and topography.
