Today we have approximately 180 US companies as members including Intel, Motorola, General Electric, Cisco Systems and Citibank. We also represent a large number of small to medium-sized firms as well. And we are moving aggressively to offer a bundle of services that empower success in the market. Ultimately we help companies build strategic relationships, and let the government understand that US companies are not just here to sell product, but are interested in a long-term relationship with Taiwan. That is an important message to send, and in all fairness a lot of US companies realize that or are happy to embrace it when it is pointed out to them.
Companies looking at Taiwan from abroad now are cautious.
I think they want to see how the DPP administration settles down in these early days. Companies who have a long-term interest here are still here, and they are doing terrific business in Taiwan. If you look at companies like Compaq, Hewlett-Packard and Dell, they are procuring more this year than last year. So for companies who have a long-standing relationship with Taiwan, they're here, they're looking to do more business here, and they are not viewing an exit strategy, but far from it. Privately I think many people here view the process of change here on the political side as very positive, positive for the long-term evolution of Taiwan as a functioning democracy.
