State identification has been a more and more important issue in Taiwan since 1990.¡@This study applies focus group interview for the analysis of state identification.¡@Interviewers will progressive interpret the state identification of themselves through interaction in a small group by focus group interview. Accordingly, the facts on affecting Taiwanese in state identification can be exposed, and outwards of state identification of Taiwanese can be further explored. ¡@¡@According to the findings of the study, party identification can drive state identification for Taiwanese, especially for those who have strong emotion in party identification. And their position of state identification is usually consistent with that of their identified party. Meanwhile, as for a Taiwanese who has weak emotion in party identification, age, provincial, background, and growing experience are the main factors that affect state identification. Moreover, concerning the symbol of the state, Taiwanese have different preferences and selections in parties and the name of the state. However, once the symbol of the state appears in an international occasion, national identification can drive a Taiwanese to generate a certain degree of emotion that connects with the symbol of the state. ¡@¡@Finally, this study further discovers that Taiwanese confuse the concept of national identification with that of state identification. The concept of national identification has always been used to discuss issues about Taiwan, and therefore Taiwanese are unaware of using national identification to discuss state identification.

Liu, Chih-Ting 03 September 2012 (has links)
Since Mainland China advocated economic reform in 1978, the government appealed to many Taiwanese firms invested with a purpose of boosting trade and investing in this fast growing market. Some of the Taiwanese firms took this opportunity to expand and attain more profit and gradually developed into partners with major international enterprises in the supply chains. In order to increase the visibility in the world and increase the fundraising scale, numerous overseas Taiwanese firms chose to be listed in capital markets. A drastic change in government policy was seen in Taiwan since 2008. The regulations regarding foreign corporations listing in Taiwan capital markets have been largely loosened, which led to a sudden surge of appetite among successful overseas Taiwanese corporations for returning to Taiwan and be primary listed or secondary listed.

During the process of chasing the Mainland China market, MNCs usually rely on the subsidiaries of Taiwan for support, and utilize it to enter Mainland China. However, with the marker of Mainland China turning bigger and bigger, lots of MNC Taiwan subsidiaries seem to face the threat of substitution of China Subsidaries, and come up with the question weather Taiwan subsidiaries should be continued or not. This study has focused on the subsistence of Taiwan subsidiaries and the relationships between the Cross-Strait subsidiaries. This research is under the observation of Taiwan subsidiaries¡¦ value, Cross-Strait subsidiaries¡¦ resource asymmetry, and the nature of value activities, to explore how these variables influence the subsistence of MNCs¡¦ Taiwan subsidiaries.

Chen, Mei-Chuech 23 July 2001 (has links)
Asian countries imitate the success of Taiwan IC industry, especially Mainland China. Therefore, it is compared between Mainland China and Taiwan to discover the differences and similarities in my thesis. National innovation systems are divided into national industry innovation policies and industrial innovation systems; the former is composed of the history of IC industry, technical policies and industrial policies. And the latter is composed of the resources of technical people, industrial gatherings, research institutions, technical resource and transference. Finally, there are three points in my conclusion. First, the use of industrial policies and the portal model of foreign businessmen are similar. But they, for instance, the period of IC technology enlightenment, the early timing and importance of technology policies, the used way of industry policy, the way of technological transference, scientific research institutions and the local Fabs, are different. Second, their IC design industry is driven by Foundry. It occurs the special division of industry. And the development of their IC industry is driven by demand market in itself.

A Study on China¡¦s Entry Strategies of the Multinational Satellite Television Channels

Hsieh, Kang 31 July 2003 (has links)
The study is to explore China¡¦s entry strategies of the multinational satellite television channels, discussing how satellite television channels of some multinational media corporations entered the highly regulated China market. As an exploratory research in essence, the study is conducted through literature analysis, case studies, and in-depth interviews. Among them, satellite television channels of the two media giants , AOL Time Warner and News Corp., are the focus of the case studies : corporate characteristics of the two multinational media corporations are taken as independent variables, while China¡¦s entry strategies of the corporations¡¦ satellite television channels are taken as dependent variables. Through this logic, the study attempts to make some propositions about the strategies used by multinational satellite television channels when entering China. Six preliminary propositions about China¡¦s entry strategies are made in the following aspects : ¡§ difference of the entry channel positioning ¡¨, ¡§ entry timing, local commitment made by the channel, and performance of the entry channel ¡¨, ¡§ value chain integration of the satellite television channel industry and local partnership ¡¨, ¡§ human resources management of the entry channel ¡¨, and ¡§ entry/ investment fields other than the satellite television channel industry ¡¨. Based on the propositions, the study then concludes that for multinational media corporations, the more inclined the parent company is categorized as multinational company in MNC category, the clearer the parent company/top manager perceives China market, the stronger the top managers¡¦ strategic intent on China market, and the richer experience the parent company owns in foreign market entry, then the more local commitment the multinational satellite television channels would make, which benefits the channel performances as a result.

The study on the development drives and investment location determinants of multinational corporations ¡V Illustrated by the case of Want-Want group

Wang, Chen-I 17 March 2008 (has links)
Due to the unusual political and economic ties across the Strait, the trade between Taiwan and Mainland China, as two independent economic entities, can be regarded as special ¡§state-to-state¡¨ trade. Logically, Taiwanese enterprises, which have invested in Mainland China, can also be defined as special Multinational Corporates¡]MNC¡^. The utmost aims of international capital flows include lowering costs and exploiting new marketplaces. The mature industries in developed economies have been losing their competitive advantages in cost and marketing, while the developing economies are usually able to provide those MNCs with more potential markets and lower operation costs. Therefore, the enterprises in developed economies can alternatively keep their competitive edges by making use of cross-border operations and capital flows. Under the frameworks of International Product Life Cycle (IPLC) and the Diamond Model, the study aims to interpret the motivations of the capital flows and the investment location determinations among Taiwan and the economic regions in Mainland China. Want-Want group, denoted as a successful Taiwan firm in Mainland China, enjoys prosperous experiences in that market. The group categorized as food industry, which falls in the mature period of product life cycle in Taiwan. Hence, the study takes it as an example to illustrate the application of the IPLC theory in the Mainland China, and to interpret the investment local determinants by the conditions illustrated by the Diamond Model. The study has scrupulously examinated the history of Want-Want group investing at Taiwan and various economic regions in China. The findings are that when multinational corporations make foreign direct investments, the Product Life Cycle theory and Diamond Model theory can appropriately interpret the motivation and location selection respectively.
