Ke Wenzhe supports the development of the blockchain industry
As the former mayor of Taipei, Ke Wenzhe made it clear in a series of outdoor lectures in recent monthsexpresssupports the development of the blockchain industry. In his view, many countries are now rushing to do OEM. If Taiwan wants to increase its income, it must develop a knowledge economy and brain-intensive industries, and it also needs to innovate its industrial layout.
Ke Wenzhe mentioned that when the Democratic Progressive Party government previously issued revitalization coupons, up to 70% of the people received paper coupons. However, just printing the paper coupons would cost a huge cost of 850 million, and the revitalization coupons had only been issued not long ago. , it was reported that there are already fake stimulus coupons circulating on the market, but with blockchain technology, printing costs can be reduced and fraud can be prevented.
When talking about industrial issues, Ke Wenzhe said bluntly that the government will not understand the market better than the industry. The government only needs to establish a platform to provide enterprises and individuals with efficient performance, just like the United States created Silicon Valley, but the United States never told Apple To produce iPhone.
Ke Wenzhe believes that the most important first step is to establish a clean government and avoid corruption. He proposed that blockchain technology can be used in the future as a method of fundraising and financial records for the People’s Party. He believes that the non-tamperability of blockchain will It can ensure the integrity of financial records and increase the credibility of financial records.
Advocating for strengthening the independence of advantageous industries
Previously, Ke Wenzhe said last monthThrowThe five major industry policies refer to the fact that Taiwan’s economy is currently suffering from “internal and external attacks”. The “five shortages” of water shortage, electricity shortage, labor shortage, land shortage, talent shortage and other problems have been repeatedly staged. The government has also over-focused on specific industries, and at the same time, wage growth has been slow, The widening gap between rich and poor clearly shows that the DPP government lacks long-term planning.
Ko Wenzhe mentioned that the international situation is also turbulent. The U.S.-China trade war has caused supply chain shifts, the war has caused an imbalance in the supply and demand of energy and food, and increased cross-strait uncertainty will affect the industrial layout and affect the willingness of companies to invest in Taiwan. Therefore, innovation is the best way to maintain competitiveness. We hope to greatly enhance industrial resilience through five major policies. These policies include:
- Enactment of the “Economic Security Law”
- Strengthen the independence of advantageous industries
- Solve the five shortcomings and provide enterprises with peace of mind
- Improve sharing of profit results
- Take a big step to join regional economic organizations
In terms of “strengthening the autonomy of advantageous industries”, Ke Wenzhepoint outTaiwan’s semiconductor industry is world-famous. He advocates preserving existing advantages and ensuring that key technologies remain in Taiwan. At the same time, we must encourage enterprise process innovation and promote industrial upgrading. Innovation can lead to breakthroughs. Therefore, he focuses on artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things, Technologies such as blockchain encourage companies to further develop new business opportunities and build more sacred mountains that protect the country.
