No retaliatory tariffs by Taiwan

Taiwan President Lai Ching-te wrote on X today that by working together with the US, the two sides will usher in a "golden age of shared prosperity", reiterating the island will not be levying retaliatory tariffs.

"Taiwan does not seek retaliatory tariffs against the US. Instead, we'll start talking from bilateral 'zero tariffs.' To ensure Taiwan's competitiveness, we'll increase US imports and adopt other measures. Working together, we'll usher in a golden age of shared prosperity."

Taiwan faces a tariff of 32 per cent from Wednesday.

Its trade surplus with the US is the seventh highest of any partner, reaching US$73.9 billion in 2024.
 
Taiwan needs some tariffs because some shameless Taiwan towkays and companies are putting their factories in mainland China and supporting the KMT. :cool:
 
Taiwan needs those weapons to reduce trade surplus. Same as Japan and South Korea.

Rumour in KL: Anwar and Probowo working together to discuss discounted weapon purchase from USA to lower trade imbalance

All will be happy but Singapore might have bought the weapon as expensive price

Ex commando probowo is very eager to upgrade Indonesia weapon
 
During the CCP's Thunder-Strike Exercise surrounding Taiwan, locals surprisingly showed little interest. Instead, they commented that the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE) had actually increased in value, despite the ongoing military exercise, which had not had a significant impact on the market. So what is compared to the 32% tariff tax to them, nothing. That the true GREEN XIAO BIRD
