TAIWAN Civil Aeronautics Administation (CAA)

Civil air transport is a crucial link to a nation’s economic development. With Taiwan in a pivotal location of Asia-Pacific region, enjoying technical and commercial advantages, its telecommunication and manufacturing industries spurred by high technology will attract transnational enterprises to set up regional bases of operation here. This could bring about a thriving value-added manufacturing industry as well as relevant service industries, which in turn should consolidate Taiwan’s position as a hub of air transshipment in the region.
