The Taiwan economy in recent years has been plagued by low or negative growth and rising structural unemployment, two kinds of turbulence that have been developing for some time. Underneath these economic woes is the even more serious problem of growing budget deficits that, if unchecked, could lead to a slippery road for Taiwan in the long run. Shrinking revenue and rising government spending in social welfare areas cause widening budget deficits. The continual swelling of these deficits is an important area requiring reform
