Taiwanese low reading habit

[edit]

During a session at the Executive Yuan in March 2013 when MOC Minister Lung Ying-tai presented a report on the strategies to boost Taiwan's publishing industries to elevate Taiwanese low reading habit, Hsu said that the MOC will try to help local publishers to go into Mainland China market by asking Beijing to lower down the tariffs of Taiwanese books during ECFA negotiation.[3]
