TAIPEI - EVERYONE in Taiwan will be given more than NT$3,600 (S$165) in shopping vouchers in a government bid to boost the economy amid the global credit crisis, Premier Liu Chao-shiun said yesterday.
The scheme, which would cost NT$82.9 billion, covers the island's 23 million people, and those who donate their vouchers would be able to file for tax deductions.
It is expected to be implemented as early as January, in time for the Chinese New Year holidays beginning on Jan 26.
'The programme is aimed at boosting the economy...and is expected to contribute to a 0.64 per cent increase in 2009 gross domestic product (GDP),' Mr Liu said at a news conference.
