TAIPEI – Chairman of the Hon Hai Group, Terry Gou, said his group will invest in a planned software industrial park in Kaohsung, Taiwan at the urging of president-elect Ma Ying-jeou.
Ying-jeou suggested Gou lead high-tech enterprises in northern Taiwan to invest in the planned industrial park in the south, and reportedly, Gou is willing to comply.
Gou also pledged to export products to Europe and the U.S. from Kaohsiung, Taiwan, instead of Vietnam, say published reports.
In addition, Ying-jeou asked Gou to expand investments in Taiwan and upgrade its Taiwanese headquarters for global operation, while leading public welfare service.
Gou said his firm has long revolved around northern Taiwan, with the south being uncharted territory. Recently, Hon Hai has opened plants in India and Nanjing, China.
The group has begun to evaluate investments to devise projects before May 20, when Ying-jeou will become president of the Republic of China.
