(1) Germany、Italy and France textile industries are the

learning model for Taiwan textile industry

The current GDP per capita of Taiwan equals to that of Italy, Germany and France in 2000. The growth path

of the three countries in the past 10 years (i.e. year 2000 to 2010) is a learning model for Taiwan textile

industry. In the meantime, concentration on branding is one of the ways to develop textile industry chain.

Starting from 2000, the apparel industries of Italy, Germany and France were reversed to growing. Their

success attributes to design and brand. By seizing the middle and high end market with value-added products,

the exports of apparel overpass textile starting from 2003 in France, and 2007 in Germany, and the export

difference between apparel and textile was widen year by year.

Meanwhile, the textile industry in Italy, Germany and France developed steadily starting from 2000. The

major reason was their R&D, innovation and quality surpass those of other countries. The exports of apparel

grew in big scale also promoted the growth of textile industry.

(2) TIFA (Trade and Investment Framework Agreement)

Effective date：September, 1994

Function： The official platform to promote trade, investment and business

cooperation for both sides. It’s also the consultative channel to resolve the

economic and trade issues.

Since 2008, however, TIFA meetings have been suspended due to U.S. beef

issues.

Ed Royce, Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee of the U.S. House

of Representatives, Interviewed by the media in Taiwan on Jan. 27 2013

suggested that Taiwan-US should restart TIFA, to solve the problem

through negotiations; "The first step is TIFA, then a free trade agreement

(FTA), the ultimate is to allow Taiwan to join the Trans-Pacific Partnership

Agreement (TPP).”
