Taiwan'S Price Rise Is Grim, &Nbsp, And Tax Cuts Are A Drop In The Bucket.

The Statistics Department of the Taiwan authorities recently announced consumers in January.

The people's Bank of China has set up a one-year RMB deposit and loan benchmark for financial institutions since February 9th this year.

The pressure of price increase is larger than that of last year.

The Statistics Department of Taiwan said that the pressure of price increase in Taiwan will be greater than that of last year. Because of the stable climate last year and the annual CPI growth of 0.96%, this year, multiple factors will affect prices, including rising raw material prices, rising demand in emerging countries, and abnormal international climate.

In fact, for the feeling of price rise in Taiwan, many people feel that during the Spring Festival, like 1 jin eggs, during the Spring Festival, they quietly rose 5 yuan (NT $, the same below). Cooking oil that must be used for cooking rose by 30 yuan every 18. In some places, fried bread sticks were increased by 50% over a year.

Not only that, including flour, sugar, instant noodles, beverages and other large commodities that are closely related to people's lives, there is a trend of rising prices. It is expected that prices will rise in late February and early March.

In fact, the price rise not only occurred in the mainland and Taiwan, according to the latest report released by the FAO, the global food price index rose for 7 consecutive months, and the global food price index reached 231 points in January this year, a record high.

Introduce tariff reduction measures

Faced with the grim situation of rising prices, the Taiwan authorities have taken a number of measures, including tariff rates ranging from 25% to 50% of the 7 items announced on the 11 day, including motorized wheat and milk powder, and communicated with relevant industry organizations.

The related tax reduction measures mainly include: from February 10th to August 9th, for the 7 items of "hard wheat", "other wheat or hybrid wheat", "wheat flour", "coarse grind and shelled wheat and its fine grain", "skim milk powder", "full fat milk powder" and "cassava starch", the customs duties were reduced for half a year, and the fall ranges from 25% to 50%.

The relevant departments said that the price trend of commodities will be decided in the future to decide whether or not to continue to move down after six months.

In case the price rises in the island are serious, it is not ruled out any further maneuverable adjustment at any time, with a maximum of 100% reduction in maneuverability and a reduction in tariffs to zero.

It is understood that Taiwan's related industry is still complaining, and generally believes that the tax reduction range is "a drop in the bucket", it is difficult to alleviate the cost pressure.

In the face of Taiwan's "ready to move" prices, Taiwan's economic authorities recently held a meeting of important commodities and raw materials supervision teams, hoping to keep a close eye on wheat and flour prices and keep commodity prices in a reasonable range.

In addition, the Taiwan economic authorities also invited the industrial associations such as flour, candy, biscuits, beverages, and fruit industry to hold a meeting, hoping that the "moral persuasion" approach would enable the industry to not raise prices under reasonable profits.
