The following part, a study of private education sector, will give an understanding of law and regulation as well as the current actors of the private education at K-12 level. A comparison will be made with the education systems in Singapore and China, as they share many cultural roots and this comparison inform future government policies. In order to understand the possible future for Taiwanese education, we need to comprehend the country’s current economic, social and political development and make the link to educational issues. In this part we will particularly draw attention to the New South Bound Policy, the demographic issue and immigration policies.
