The Presidential Office and the Executive Yuan held intensive response meetings over the past three days in light of the United States' "reciprocal tariff" policy. President Lai Ching-te and Executive Yuan Premier Su Tseng-chang divided responsibilities to gather opinions from various industries and the financial sector. On the afternoon of the 5th, President Lai hosted the first industry forum at the official residence to discuss the tariff crisis in depth, where representatives from businesses shared their needs and opinions. The preliminary conclusion indicated that there is a consensus on the need to stabilize confidence, observe response strategies from different countries, and suggest that the government engage in negotiations, ensuring to plan thoroughly before taking action.

In response to the 32% tariff impact from the "Trump Tariff War" on Taiwan, the Presidential Office and the Executive Yuan have been intensively conducting a "three-step response" in the past three days. President 賴清德 and Premier 卓榮泰 have both actively participated, listening to the opinions of the industry and financial sectors. Meanwhile, the preliminary conclusions from the first "Presidential Industry Forum" have also been released tonight.

Facing the impact of the U.S. "reciprocal tariff" on over 170 countries worldwide, President 賴清德 held a meeting at the official residence this afternoon (5th), inviting industry representatives for face-to-face discussions. At 3 PM, the first ICT industry forum attracted participation from more than 10 corporate representatives, and tomorrow a second forum will be held targeting traditional industries and small to medium enterprises, allowing local operators to directly express their views and needs to the President and the Premier.

In the "three-step response," Premier 卓榮泰 first held a 2-hour press conference at the Executive Yuan on Friday (4th), focusing on the impact of the U.S. "reciprocal tariffs" on Taiwan's industries, and announced an 88 billion subsidy plan, with the strategic goal of prioritizing the stabilization of industrial confidence. At the same time, the government has also adopted multiple measures. Today (5th), Premier 卓榮泰 once again convened relevant heads from the Central Bank, Financial Supervisory Commission, Ministry of Finance, and others to discuss the Taiwanese stock market and industry countermeasures in detail after the holiday.

In the afternoon of the 5th, President 賴清德 gathered industry representatives at the Presidential residence for in-depth communication, where industry representatives discussed frontline market conditions and government assistance needs. In the preliminary conclusions of the first "Presidential and Business Forum," participants unanimously agreed that it is necessary to base operations in Taiwan while expanding globally. Although the responses from various countries differ—whether through retaliation, yielding, or compromise—each country's situation varies, and the U.S. has yet to reach a final conclusion, requiring ongoing observation. The business sector also supports the government leveraging its bargaining chips in negotiations and is not eager to take a stance, first proposing industry reassurance plans to ensure stability in actions.
