چکیده
The purpose of this paper is to examine the allocation of the FDI flows in the East Asian region among Southeast Asian countries and China. In addition, it will also investigate the role of the public policy and the private firms during the foreign direct investment process in 1990s. In particular, we will emphasize the Taiwan case, since Taiwan has been one of the main contributors in this region. And we will show the dynamics of the industry types of foreign direct investment during 1990s. It appears that foreign direct investment plays the main role of economic integration between Taiwan and China during the process. However, the expansionary outward FDI may cause a hollowing-out of Taiwan domestic industries.
