Taiwan government clear on mission to lead world in IT development with CeBIT

Taiwan has been one of the major manufacturing and industrial powerhouses since the 1980s, and now the government is being clear as glass in its mission to lead the world in the development of information technology.

According to Andrew Liu, manager of TAITRA Taipei and ambassador for the Taiwan Excellence Award, the nation's high-tech products span various sectors and have won the trust and praise from users worldwide.

Liu asserts the island's consumer electronics products embody great value and innovation, and cutting edge design. Taiwan is the world's largest chipmaker, responsible for close to a quarter of the world's semiconductor chip production.
