The Executive Yuan approved a national development blueprint from the National Development Council for 2025 through 2028, highlighting the government’s commitment to actively promoting policies benefiting the whole of society.
According to the EY, the draft was accepted Aug. 15 in Taipei City to move toward the goals of creating an innovative economy, inclusive growth and a balanced country. The scheme targets an average economic growth rate of 2.8 percent to 3.6 percent as well as an unemployment rate of 3.2 percent to 3.5 percent.
The plan proposes strategies to carry out President Lai Ching-te’s National Project of Hope, including the expansion of social investment, green growth and a transition to net-zero emissions by 2050, the enhancement of medical investment to forge a healthy Taiwan, and the cultivation of soft power through the establishment of national branding, among others, the EY added.
The plan will now be submitted to the president. Once it has been approved, it will be sent to all ministries to be implemented. (POC-E)
