According to Wu Ming-Ji, Director General of the Department of Industrial Technology, Ministry of Economic Affairs:The cloud computing promotion plan will stimulate the creation of new business opport
In 2010, the Taiwanese government began implementation of a dynamic new plan to promote the development of the cloud computing industry. This new project, which will involve the provision of NT$24 billion in government funding over a period of five years, is expected to stimulate NT$12.7 billion in private-sector R&D investment. According to Wu Ming-Ji, Director General of the Department of Industrial Technology, Ministry of Economic Affairs, who is also the Executive Secretary of the Executive Yuan’s Cloud Computing Industry Promotion Guidance Team, the government’s cloud computing promotion policy has already stimulated investment in the cloud computing field by companies such as Trend Micro, Quanta Computer, Wistron, Inventec, Hon Hai and Chunghwa Telecom totaling NT$25 billion.
台灣政府2010年積極推動雲端運算產業發展方案，預計5年內投入240億元，帶動企業研發投資127億。行政院「雲端運算產業發展指導小組」執行秘書、同時也是經濟部技術處長吳明機表示，在政府大力推動雲端政策下，目前已促成包括趨勢科技、廣達電腦、緯創資通、英業達、鴻海、中華電信等業者投資，高達新台幣250億元。
In an interview with ideas magazine, Wu Ming-Ji noted that Taiwan is a major center for the production of cloud computing data center components. If they can master cloud computing system architecture, large-scale system management software, and data center operating system technology, Taiwanese companies should be able to allocate R&D resources to develop high-quality, reasonably-priced data center systems suited for emerging markets in the Asia region, thereby facilitating their development of the Southeast Asian and Chinese markets.
吳明機在接受《創新發現誌（ideas）》雜誌專訪時強調，台灣是雲端資料中心元件生產基地，如能掌握雲端系統架構、大型系統管理軟體、資料中心作業系統等技術，國內廠商可以投入研發資源，發展出適合亞洲新興市場使用的優質平價的資料中心系統，得以進軍東南亞、中國大陸等市場。
Taiwan possesses world-class IT hardware and software R&D capabilities. Wu Ming-Ji believes that Taiwan’s software industry needs the support of the hardware industry; a strategy based on “using hardware to foster the development of software” can create new kinds of opportunities for cloud computing. In the past, when Taiwan’s IT hardware industry has needed software solutions, it has had to look for them overseas. This is expensive and unnecessary; it does not necessarily conform to the needs of the regional market.
台灣的硬體研發能量獨步全球，吳明機認為，台灣軟體產業也需要靠硬體的加持，在「以硬帶軟」的政策下，雲端提供另一種機會。原本台灣硬體業要尋求軟體解決方案，都需要遠赴國外尋找，事實上既昂貴又沒有必要，不一定能符合區域市場需求。
