Taiwan’s textile exports to China are likely to be hit by the China-Korea Free Trade Agreement (FTA), negotiations for which are going to start soon, Taiwan’s Bureau of Foreign Trade (BoFT) General Director, Bill Cho, said.
Besides textiles, China-Korea FTA is likely to impact exports of more than 2,000 items to China, particularly when Korea has already inked similar agreements with the EU and the US.
The China-Korea FTA would prove detrimental to Taiwan, especially if it takes form before the conclusion of cross-strait negotiations between Taiwan and China for further facilitations of mutual trade.
According to the Ministry of Economic Affairs, industrial machinery, petrochemical materials, machine tools and textile goods are all included in the list of items whose exports from Taiwan to China overlap with those from Korea.

The traditional tiring technique of reeling silk, under which first cocoons are soaked in a pot and then yarn is spun manually, is likely to come to an end with the launch of the Solar Multi Muga Reeling cum Spinning Machine.
The new machine is so devised that it can simultaneously carry out the reeling as well as spinning jobs for different varieties of silk like Mulberry, Muga, Eri and Tasar without any laborious human effort.
The new machine is a brain child of Mr. Manoharmayum Manihar Sharma, an innovator and a master craftsman of Adarsh Kartha (Marked) Industries based in Nongmeibung Pung Makhong, near Imphal, the capital of Northeast Indian State of Manipur.
The machine designed by Mr. Manihar uses a solar plate to operate, which has a capacity to charge 17 volt to 15 watt on a usual sunlit day.
In the absence of sunlight, the machine has a 12 volt-2 amp charger attached to it, which acts as a back-up to support its operations.
