1997年开始的亚洲金融风暴席卷了不少国家,我国台湾省以高技术产业为后盾,尚未受到严重打击。鉴于该地区受波及国家购买力下降,为保持计算机产品出口势头不减,台湾计算机厂商正加强开拓欧洲市场。近年荷兰已成为台湾对欧出口的最大市场,目前台湾在荷兰设点的企业已有120家,这些台商均经由荷兰扩大对欧洲其他国家出口。迄今台湾计算机工业仍以制造硬件设备为主, The Asian financial crisis that began in 1997 engulfed many countries. Taiwan Province of China, backed by high-tech industries, has not been severely hit. In view of the decline in purchasing power of affected countries in the region, Taiwan’s computer makers are stepping up efforts to open up the European market in order to keep the momentum of computer products exporting unabated. In recent years, the Netherlands has become the largest market for Taiwan’s exports to Europe. At present, there are 120 Taiwanese companies that have set up operations in the Netherlands. These Taiwanese companies have expanded their exports to other European countries through the Netherlands. So far Taiwan’s computer industry still focuses on manufacturing hardware equipment.
