		<description><![CDATA[Focus Taiwan 2012/01/18 Taipei, Jan. 18 (CNA) The economic problems in Europe could lead to reduced tax revenue in Taiwan of between NT$1 billion (US$33.4 million) and NT$10 billion, but it would be a &#8220;bearable&#8221; amount, Finance Minister Lee Sush-der said Monday. Taiwanese banks hold &#8220;tens of billions of NT dollars&#8221; in European government debt, but that has &#8220;little impact&#8221; on Taiwan&#8217;s financial system, Lee said.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The China Post January 13, 2012 The China Post news staff&#8211;Taiwanese net-surfers often rightly complain about the slow broadband service. According to a survey conducted by the Consumers&#8217; Foundation (消費者文教基金會), Taiwan&#8217;s average download speed is 13 Mbps, and 2.7 Mbps for upload. This lags behind the world&#8217;s average of 37.5 Mbps download speed. The foundation particularly singled-out Chunghwa Teleom (中華電信), calling the telecommunication company&#8217;s television commercials misleading. According to the watchdog group, Chunghwa&#8217;s 1 Gbps wide band service is in fact only 50 Mbps at best.    [FULL  STORY]]]></description>
