Research on Cross-Straitss Industrial Competition and Cooperation in ASEAN Market——Based on the Trade in Value Added Perspective
This paper uses the RRCA index,ESI index,the RVC index and their ranking to analyze the cross-Straits industrial competition and cooperation relationship in ASEAN market.The research shows that:① the competitiveness of most Chinese mainland industries in the ASEAN market is stronger than that of Taiwan,with the industrial competitiveness of Chinese mainland industries has been maintained or tended to be strengthened for a long time,while that of Taiwan has been gradually weakening,but both of them have their own advantageous industries.② Six major sub-industries on both sides of the Straits,such as manufacturing and public utilities,have relatively close co-operation in the ASEAN market,but the co-operation in most of the industries is gradually weakening.③ The manufacturing industries on both sides of the Straits rank at the top of the ASEAN regional value chain in terms of participation and ranking,but the service industries are at the back of the list;15 mainland industries belong to the categories of"rapidly rising"and"stable development"in terms of participation in the ASEAN regional value chain,with manufacturing industries being the most prominent;Taiwan's"fluctuating rise"category only includes five major industries,such as mining and some service industries,while the remaining 15 industries fall into the categories of"rapidly declining"and"slowly declining"in terms of their participation in ASEAN regional value chains.On this basis,we analyze and propose recommendations for cross-Straits industrial development and cooperation in the ASEAN market.
