Chinese investment in Taiwan plummets by 90%

Chinese investment in Taiwan registered a 90% drop in the first quarter of the financial year reports the Central News Agency (CNA).

The Economic Affairs’ Investment Commission noted that Chinese investment in Taiwan was 90.83% lower than last year.

The drop in Chinese investment comes amidst strong protests by Taiwanese activists against an impending trade deal between China and Taiwan, which activists say will increase China’s influence in Taiwan.
