Taiwan 's Economic Impact On The Economy

Madagascar is among the countries that are termed as least developed in the world today (United Nations, 2001). The implementation of trade agreement based on agriculture sector led to sluggishness in the various market dynamics of the available grains. In addition to this, the quantity of grains was declining and as a consequence of this, the revenues generated declined at an alarming rate. The country was therefore obliged to opt for food import. This step was taken as a result of reduction in the amount of aid granted to the government, and subsequent subsidization of exports. Since Madagascar could not afford to offer export subsidization, the country’s exports were highly affected by the established policies such as non-tariff

In 1912 the Quing dynasty fell with the help of the Chinese Nationalist Party to become the Republic of China. While there was a legal structured government in place, warlords controlled regions in China maintaining the real power. In 1927 the Chinese Nationalist Party and the Communist Party of China fought against each other for control of China, even later as they allied

b. The emperor Kangxi led the conquest of the island of Taiwan , home to Chinese and Japanese pirates, in 1681. Struggles with a new rival to the north and northwest, manchurians , led to constant conflict and extensive territorial gains for China.

Between the years of 1927 and 1949 in China two warring sides, China’s Communist Party and China’s Nationalist Party, clashed. Although the two parties had previously worked together in the United Front against Japan when Japan tried to invade, their temporary alliance was dropped as soon as the invasion was over. Halting only for a brief period when Japan attempted to invade a second time in 1936 to form the Second United Front, the two parties resumed fighting after the invasion was over in 1945, and only stopped hostilities when the Communist party drove out the Nationalist party to Taiwan and other islands. This war brought China into a new era under a communist government, the People’s Republic of China. Massive reform and change would

The Soviet Union was not the only nation in the postwar era to enact a communist platform. Mao-Tse-Tung and the communists drove Chiang-Kai-Shek’s Nationalists to Taiwan from mainland China. The United Nations did not admit this government until October 25, 1971 and the United States did not recognize the People’s Republic of China until 1979.

After another uprising in 1911, the Qing’s rule ended, as well as China’s dynasty system. This lead to Republic of China in 1912 (History.com,

Kangxi and Qianlong were both highly intelligent scholars, allowing them to lead effective conquests and oversee architectural and artistic projects that solidified the Manchus power in China. Kangxi studied Confucianism and implemented its principles by supporting the common welfare and promoting Confucian schools. The conquests led by Kangxi were also why he was considered to be a good leader. He led successful conquests to Taiwan, where many Ming loyalists were living, Mongolia, and central Asia, nearly to the Caspian Sea; Kangxi also conquered and controlled Tibet. Both emperors sought to greatly expand the Qing empire, with Qianlong turning Nepal, Vietnam, and Burma into vassal states as well as sending successful militia to Turkestan.

Since the outbreak of the Second Sino-Japanese War in 1937, the Americans had been supporting the Chinese Nationalist Party, led by Chiang kai-Shek. Despite the United States sending almost three billion in aid, the Nationalists were too corrupt to defeat the Communist Party in the struggle for power. By 1949, the Nationalists had fled to Taiwan, in in October, the People’s Republic of China was declared, led by communist ruler Mao Zedong. After this,communist China stated that it would work with the Soviet Union against the imperialist Americans, causing tensions between communist China and the United States to reach an all time high. In the United States, many were wondering who lost China, and what could have been done to stop to Communists. The next encounter with Communist China was during the Korean War. In 1950, the Soviet-backed North Koreans invaded the American-backed South Koreans, leading to an outbreak of war between the two groups. The United States immediately sent military help to the South Koreans, pushing the North Koreans back up, past the 38th parallel. As the United States, pushed farther north, they advanced closer to the Chinese border, causing the Chinese to enter the war against the United States. Fighting between the Americans and the Chinese lasted until 1953, with approximately 55,000 Americans dead. In Asia, containment had come

At the end of the Sino-Japanese War the Guomindang held significant advantages over the Communists, with its widely recognised legitimate government controlling China, giving it the power to tax and conscript. On the other hand, the Communists could not match the Guomindang's troops in terms of training and equipment and could be "outgunned and outmanoeuvred in all major regions of the country" (Westad, 2003: 8). Furthermore, the Communist party was hardly represented in the cities at all, which of course was the power base of the Guomindang. However, the Communists also had successes resulting from the war with Japan including increasing their area of control and practiced evolving their strategies of protracted guerrilla warfare against the Japanese which in turn generated public support. Despite this the party's main forces were still located in North-west China and they were not in such a powerful position that a civil war with the Guomindang would be a mere formality in securing control of the country.

In this condition, the political party that gave birth to Taiwan, the Guomindang or GMD was formed and so was the ruling

Towards the end of the Chinese Civil War, the Chinese Communist Party under the leadership of Mao Zedong was able to defeat the Nationalists Party (KMT) which was under Chiang Kai-Shriek. Several reasons have lied upon the triumph of the CCP. Mao and his party were capable of gaining support from the majority of the population through their restrained land policies; they were also able to take advantage of KMT weaknesses, in addition to their complete dedication during the years.

Communism is a system of government, a political ideology that rejects private ownership and promotes a classless, stateless society based on common ownership of all property and the means of production, where by all work is shared and all proceeds are commonly owned. Communism is practised in China, North Korea, Vietnam, Laos and Cuba. However most of the world’s communist governments have been disbanded since the end of World War II. Soon after the Japanese surrendered at the end of World War II, Communist forces began a war against the Kuomintang in China. The Communists gradually gained control of the country and on the 1st October, 1949, Mao Zedong announced the victory of the Communist party and the establishment of the People's

“Communism is not love. Communism is a hammer which we use to crush the enemy. “Mao Zedong clearly referring to the Kuomintang.

Figure 1 above presents some data regarding the visitor arrivals of Taiwan tourism for the last decade.

The main aspiration of the Kuomintang (KMT) officials of enacting the Martial Law was that they wanted Taiwan to become bastion for the future recovery of mainland People’s Republic of China (Chao and Myers, 2000: 387). If the communist regime would ever lose support and
