Wen-jen Hsieh Comments on COVID-19 in Taiwan: Economic Impacts and Lessons Learned
technology and semiconductor products. This is clearly the exception rather than the norm. The Taiwanese government’s relief and stimulus package constituted a sensible and predictable mix of financial aid, employment assistance, and tax breaks. The author rightly points out that rigorous examination as to the effectiveness of these policies is needed. To this end, perhaps a related question would be whether these standard assistance packages can be provided in a more targeted manner, especially with the availability of big data and digital technology. The case of using big data and financial technology (fintech) in mainland China to inform risk-management decisions is of useful reference. Moreover, it would not be correct to attribute the health of the Taiwanese economy primarily to these packages. Rather, Taiwan’s economic situation seems more a product situated in the greater context of the global economic and geopolitical framework.

The journal Asian Economic Papers (AEP) is supported by several prominent institutions, including the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University in the United States. This shows that there is a strong emphasis on sustainable development within the journal's scope. Additionally, the Korea Institute for International Economic Policy in South Korea, the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) in Malaysia, and the Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia in Indonesia also sponsor AEP. The articles published in AEP focus on conducting thorough and rigorous analyses of significant economic issues pertaining to specific Asian economies or the broader Asian region. The aim is to gain a deeper understanding of these issues and provide innovative solutions. By offering creative solutions to economic challenges, AEP contributes to the discourse and policymaking that impact the Asian economies and region as a whole.
