Overall Competitiveness of the City: Taipei City goes upward

By Feng,Ling-hui/TIER
The “Global Views” issued the results of “a Mass Survey on the Overall Competitiveness of Counties and Cities” in July 2016. Taipei City won the championship once again in a national competition with other 19 counties and cities. For Taipei City, things are just going smoothly. In addition to winning the first prize in the overall ranking of competitiveness, this city also won the first prize either in the national counties and cities ranking or among the 6 municipalities in terms of 5 aspects — “economy and employment,” “education and culture,” “environmental protection and environmental quality,” “medical treatment and hygiene” as well as “local finance.” In the two aspects of “security” and “life quality and modernization,” Taipei City has made tremendous progress in the performance ranking compared to last year although it still has a long way to go for improvement. Its urban resource conditions, historical development and orientation – plus its perfect execution in the policy– are all key factors, which enabled Taipei City to become a regular winner in terms of the economy, education, medical treatment and finance.
