Business Taiwan government to sell 55.23% of CPC stake by year-end 2003-01-18 / Agence France-Presse / The Taiwanese government plans to dispose of a 55.23 percent stake in Chinese Petroleum Corp. (CPC) by the end of this year in a privitization scheme, an official said yesterday. "Amid liberalization of the domestic oil market, privatization is necessary to take on escalating competition," said the official from the Commission of National Corporations. The government was likely to release up to a 44.69 percent stake in CPC to strategic investors at home or abroad and sell the rest to individual investors through an initial public offering, the official said. "Several foreign oil companies have expressed interest but no formal negotiations have been started," he said. Details about the privatization scheme need to be hammered out and would have to be approved by parliament, the official said. But the government would manage to keep a no less than 34 percent in CPC to maintain veto power on the company's board of directors. CPC authorities would communicate with its employees on the privatization project to diffuse possible opposition from the workers union, the official said.

Following the communist victory on the mainland in 1949, 2 million Nationalists fled to Taiwan and established a government using the 1947 constitution drawn up for all of China. Over the next five decades, the ruling authorities gradually democratized and incorporated the native population within its governing structure. Throughout this period, the island has prospered to become one of East Asia's economic "Tigers." The dominant political issue continues to be the relationship between Taiwan and China and the question of eventual reunification.

Bali bomb blasts: Opposition parties accuse Taiwan government for not doing its duty Translation of http://www.ettoday.com/2002/10/14/91-1363095.htm Regarding the Bali bombing incident, the two opposition parties accused the government of not fulfilling its party to protect the Taiwanese citizens. The government parliamentary chief Mr. Eu had said that before the act. 11 evening he knew that there was going to be a terrorist incident in Bali. But the government did not inform its thousands plus Taiwanese citizens holidaying in Bali about it at that time and failed in its responsibility to protect the Taiwanese people. The Taiwanese government should have declared Bali a terrorist region and evacuated immediately its citizens who were on holidays there. Now that the bomb blast had happened, resulting in one missing Taiwanese citizen together with hundred plus other people already killed. The opposition parties leaders as well as the Defence Ministry professional representative have blamed the government of not fulfilling its duty to protect its people and therefore neglecting its duty. Opposition Leader James Soong went on to say that if the government has prior information about the Bali terrorist acts, they should be given credit for such a excellent intelligence breakthrough. But if the government really did know, why didn't they alert the thousand strong Taiwanese on holidays in Bali? Why was there no evacuation plan in effect, why special airplanes had not been sent to fly them home then - this is a major mistake! !

Custom Magazines Taiwan government postpones decision on China fabs By Faith Hung EBN (01/11/02 02:41 p.m. EST) Taiwan's government continues to drag its feet on a decision whether to lift the ban on 8-inch-wafer-fab investments in China, raising concerns that a campaign promise delayed will be a campaign promise broken. For the second time in a month, the Ministry of Economic Affairs postponed its decision on easing the restriction, this time without offering any timetable as to when a ruling will be issued. The lack of guidance has some chip industry executives concerned that the government is using stall tactics in an effort to dodge the issue. “It's understandable why the government delayed its decision again, but Taiwan's advantages will vanish in two to three years if the ban isn't lifted,” said Hander Chang, an assistant vice president of Winbond Electronics Corp., Hsinchu, one of Taiwan's largest DRAM manufacturers. “Foundry is one of the few sectors in which Taiwan has dominant power on the worldwide stage.” An easing of the prohibition was promised by Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) during the island's parliamentary election campaign late last year. The centrist proposal, from a party that historically has favored independence for Taiwan and eschewed close ties with the mainland, was seen by many as a measure to help boost the island's battered economy. However, with the reduced incentive for compromise following the DPP's majority victory in the December election, the government may be reluctant to keep its promise, according to some analysts.

Custom Magazines Taiwan government probes UMC on China investment By Faith Hung EBN (04/02/02 10:53 a.m. EST) TAIPEI, Taiwan Taiwan's government is investigating whether United Microelectronics Corp. invested in a foundry project in China before the government removed a ban on such investments. UMC has denied any wrongdoing. The subject of the probe is whether UMC, the world's second-biggest silicon foundry, has spent $1 billion building a 200mm wafer facility in Suzhou through a company called He Jian Technology Co., which is widely believed to have links with UMC, according to media reports. In the beginning of this year, UMC started the construction of the plant, expecting to reach mass production in 2003, said the reports. Taiwan last week eased long-time restrictions, allowing foundries such as UMC and its closest rival Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. to build fabs on the mainland to tap the huge demand of the Chinese market. With the reports indicating UMC had violated the rule before the ban was lifted, the government is looking into the situation. “We're very, very concerned about this,” said R. L. Chen, a deputy vice minister of Taiwan's Economic Affairs. “If we gather enough evidence that proves UMC has had investments on the mainland, we'll punish them by law.” The worst case could be UMC being fined between $28,500 to $142,800 each time the government asks the company to completely withdraw its investments in China, he said.

document.write(dateText); News Headlines Homepage Hot Deals Equity News Site Search: By Country By Industry Taiwan government raises $320 million from TSMC ADR By Jackie Horne 21 November 2001 Goldman Sachs secures the deal after pitching its winning bid at an aggressive discount to close. The US investment bank re-gained its stranglehold over business in TSMC's name last night (Tuesday) winning an auction to place out 20 million ADR's for Taiwan's National Development Fund. In doing so, it is believed to have beaten four other banks comprising Deutsche Bank, Merrill Lynch, Salomon Smith Barney and UBS Warburg. Even though the deal was in the name of the government, winning will have been extremely important to Goldman given its close relationship with TSMC, whose CEO Morris Chang was recently elected to the bank’s board. However, a number of rival firms questioned the logic of its aggression in the face of a falling market and there was also widespread uncertainty at the amount of the deal actually placed with investors before the book was closed at 9.15 am New York time. Goldman sold ADR's at $16.05, a 0.9925% discount to the previous night's $16.17 close. Such has been the competition to win TSMC-related business in recent years, that the discount needed to secure books has become ever tighter. In 1999, for example, a $300 million sale came at a 5.6% discount close, while a $207 million trade followed in 2000 at a 2.6% discount and a $291.2 million issue in June this year at a record tight 0.86% discount.

CALLAWAY GOLF AND TAIWAN GOVERNMENT CORPORATE RAIDS AGAINST GOLF CLUB COUNTERFEITERS Callaway Golf Company announced today that it has cooperated with government authorities in carrying out three raids against golf club counterfeiters in Taiwan. The raids were targeted against counterfeit Callaway Golf products manufactured in Taiwan and exported to the US and foreign markets. The successful actions in Taiwan come in the wake of "Project Teed Off", a US Customs "sting" executed in February 1999 that resulted in the arrest of twelve citizens, among them several Taiwanese citizens. The raids in Taiwan were carried out on 14th April by official of the Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Justice, which is responsible for the enforcement of intellectual property laws in Taiwan. Raided were Liang Sheng Golf, Blue Whale Enterprises and Ta Sheng Industries. The three raided businesses were all located in Fengyuan City, a suburb of the capital city, Taipei. Officials arrested two persons - Chang Chu-Ping and Liu Tai-Chi - and seized approximately a thousand counterfeit "Callaway Golf" club components, including almost a hundred fully assembled counterfeit irons ad metal woods. Steven McCracken, Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Office of Callaway Golf, expressed his satisfaction with the actions of the Taiwanese authorities. "We welcomed the opportunity to work with our Taiwanese colleagues. These arrest and the February arrest by the US Customs Service should send a warning to the makers of illegal counterfeits of our golf clubs."
