Shi Yanxiang took the initiative to invite 17 textile associations, including the middle and lower reaches, to discuss the answers.

Lian Jin Zhang said that at this stage, the relationship between the cost and the price of cotton yarn and processing silk is assessed.

Only the industry thinks that the price of cotton is still rising in the short term. Although the price of the fourth quarter of this year may be slightly back, the price is still at a high level.

At present, the industry can bear the upward pressure. Once the industry reaction can not bear the cost increase, Taiwan economic department will start up.

The Ministry of economic affairs of Taiwan said that coordination would be made before the three measures were taken.

The raw materials will be given priority to the middle and lower reaches of the country.

For the Ministry of economic affairs, it is suggested that the import tariff of cotton yarn can be adjusted automatically. The Ministry of finance of Taiwan says that the Ministry of finance can discuss whether there is a 71 rule in accordance with the relevant tariff law.
