As for Trump's announcement that he will impose another 10% tariff in the coming days, Huang Guochang pointed out that what is more important is how Taiwan should respond. Whether the agreements previously signed can be adjusted during this period to reflect the opinions of the island's industries, workers, and farmers that could not be expressed due to lack of information in the past, and the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) should handle it carefully.
When asked whether there was concern that Taiwan would be investing in vain, Huang Guochang said that this round of trade negotiations with the U.S. is quite far from the DPP's previous advocacy of "allowing society to fully participate." Whether it is investment in the U.S., procurement from the U.S., full market liberalization, agricultural products, etc., all have caused significant negative impacts on Taiwan's traditional industries and agriculture. Can this opportunity be used to reflect the voices of the industries and re-adjust?
Huang Guochang also said at last that the judgment of the U.S. federal court is not predictable by anyone. This also reflects that if more different opinions on the island are consulted, and the people of Taiwan are united to fight for their best interests, this would be a good timing.
