The primary strategy for long-term improvement is to use educational investment to upgrade the quality of citizen and enhance economic development. Traditional structures in the present education system threaten to become barriers to upgrading the Chinese Taipei economy to a manufacturing level so educational reform is seen as one of the keys.
