  • Taiwan (Legal Name-Tiger Consulting Taiwan Limited)
    F Introduction to Tiger Consulting Taiwan (Legal name-Tiger Consulting Taiwan Limited) Tiger Consulting Taiwan Limited 2F., No.1-10, Sec. 5, Zhongxiao E. Rd., Xinyi Dist., Taipei City 110, Taiwan Email: [email protected] Website:www.tiger-consulting.net Key Country Facts Official Language Mandarin is the official national language and is spoken by the vast majority of the population of Taiwan. It has been the primary language of instruction in schools since the Japanese rule ended. As in Hong Kong and Macau, Traditional Chinese is used as the writing system in Taiwan. Currency: New Taiwan Dollar (NT$) Time Zone: UTC +8 Capital City: Taipei is the Capital of Taiwan. Laws and Customs: The political and legal statuses of Taiwan are contentious issues. The People's Republic of China (PRC) claims that the Republic of China government is illegitimate, referring to it as the "Taiwan Authority". The ROC, however, with its own constitution, independently elected president and armed forces, continues to view itself as a sovereign state. The present territory of the state has never been controlled by the PRC. Internationally, there is controversy on whether the ROC still exists as a state or a defunct state per international law due to the loss of membership/recognition in the United Nations and lack of wide diplomatic recognition. In a poll of Taiwanese aged 20 and older taken by the TVBS in March 2009, a majority of 64% opted for the status quo, while 19% favoured independence and 5% unification. Cultural observations The aboriginal cultures of Taiwan represent 2% of the population of the island.

Unlike most 27 transit systems, TRA accommodates different trip purposes and train types on shared railway 28 infrastructure, covering areas with varying traffic densities, travel needs, and geographic features. As an 29 importer of railway technology, to meet diverse requirements, and because of incremental and stop-gap 30 measures devised in response to capital budget restrictions, TRA has needed to embrace, operate, and 31 maintain a wide assortment of different standards and procedures. This willingness to accept outside 32 designs and consider functionality/cost/simplicity trade-offs when addressing specific needs resulted in 33 constantly varying daily routines for management, staff, and customers.

  • Digital Port Innovations in Taiwan: Opportunities for Knowledge Intensive Cooperation
    Digital Port Innovations in Taiwan: Opportunities for knowledge intensive cooperation An overview of developments and challenges for Taiwanese ports and possible digital solutions Abstract Digital technologies have already shaped our lives and are only expected to transform our society and economy even further. The digital transformation of the logistic and transport industry is quickly picking up speed. Ports around the world have recognized the potential of these new digital innovations and are aiming to stay ahead. Taiwan is the 22nd largest economy of the world and similar to the Netherlands in terms of land area and population. The biggest port of Taiwan, the port of Kaohsiung, was once one of the top five seaports in the world but gradually lost its top position due to intensive competition from ports in the region, currently the port of Kaohsiung occupies the 13th position. Ports in Taiwan are still facing intensive competition from other ports in the region and have been developing and implementing digital solutions to enhance their operational efficiency and thereby raising the competitiveness of their ports. These digital projects are aimed to not only raise the competitiveness but also to improve the safety and sustainability of the port. Various projects such as monitoring and optimizing the vessel movement in the port, linking digital systems and sharing data and installing smart sensors are planned in order to address the aforementioned challenges. This research will shed a light on the digital developments in the port sector in Taiwan. The report will first give a brief overview of the economy of Taiwan, general information on the port sector and the characteristics of the different ports in Taiwan.
