Summary:

Taiwan's upcoming presidential and legislative elections will take place against the backdrop of a struggling economy marred by near-zero growth, stagnant wages, rising prices and the looming threats of an energy shortage, low domestic investment, and overdependence on China. These economic problems, largely at the forefront of the minds of Taiwan's electorate, are expected to be the deciding factors in the January 2016 election. This report's key findings list Taiwan's economic challenges, the political debates surrounding them, and future policy options to steer Taiwan's economy back toward sustainable growth.
