Taiwan to seek lower tariff after Trump's 'temporary' 20% levy
Taiwan vowed on Friday to seek a lower tariff after Donald Trump imposed a "temporary" 20 percent levy on its shipments to the United States as part of his trade war. The US president's announcement was part of a sweep of measures -- reaching 41 percent -- against dozens of global partners as they scrambled for deals with Washington to avert the painful tolls. The figure is down from the 32 percent toll imposed in his April 2 "Liberation Day", since when Taipei and Washington have held four rounds of face-to-face talks and multiple video conferences to resolve the issue. On Friday Taiwan President Lai Ching-te said on Facebook they were still working to strike an agreement "The US has announced a temporary 20 percent tariff for Taiwan, with the possibility of further reductions should an agreement be reached," he wrote. "The government will continue to strive for a reasonable tariff rate and complete the final stages of the tariff negotiations." While Trump had set Friday as the deadline for agreements to be made, he delayed it until the end of next week. No timeline was given for Taiwan, which could mean the island was caught in the middle of US-China trade negotiations, said Alicia Garcia-Herrero, chief economist for Asia Pacific at Natixis. Washington and Beijing held two days of talks this week aimed at reaching a deal to extend a truce in their trade war and prevent the reimposition of sky-high tariffs on August 12. "The conditions on Taiwan might be relevant for China, imagine export controls," Garcia-Herrero told AFP. After US tech giant Nvidia announced it will resume sales of its H20 AI chips to China, Garcia-Herrero said "there could be other stuff that China needs from Taiwan that the US can offer". 'This is the ceiling' Taiwan is a global powerhouse in chip manufacturing, with more than half the world's semiconductors and nearly all of the high-end ones made there. The owner of a Taiwanese machinery exporter to the United States said he was worried that lower tariff rates on Japan and South Korea -- 15 percent -- would advantage his competitors there. He told AFP the recent appreciation in the Taiwan dollar against the greenback had also "put a lot of pressure on us, creating a double whammy". The uncertainty over tariffs was hurting US sales, said textile producer Eddie Wang, with clients "feeling overwhelmed" and reluctant to place orders. Soaring demand for AI-related technology has fuelled Taiwan's trade surplus with the United States -- and put it in Trump's crosshairs. Around 60 percent of Taiwan's exports to the United States are information and communications technology, which includes chips. In a bid to avoid the tariffs, Taipei has pledged to increase investment in the United States, buy ore of its energy and increase its own defence spending. Economist Sun Ming-te said the 20 percent levy was "probably the best outcome Taiwan can achieve with the US under the current conditions."

Jordan's industrial exports rise 6.3% in first 5 months of 2025
AMMAN — Jordan's industrial exports rose by 6.3 per cent in the first five months of 2025, reaching JD3.3 billion, up from JD3.1 billion during the same period last year, the Jordan Chamber of Industry (JCI) said on Thursday. This performance confirms the sector's 'resilience and growing importance' as a key driver of national economic growth, with industrial exports now accounting for 92 per cent of the country's total national exports, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported. In its latest report, the JCI attributed the JD302 million increase to higher demand from key markets, particularly Saudi Arabia and Iraq, which together accounted for nearly half of the total export growth. Saudi Arabia topped the list of markets contributing to growth, with a JD91.6 million increase in imports from Jordan, followed by Syria (JD72.2 million), India (JD56 million), Iraq (JD54 million), the US (JD20.9 million) and China (JD15 million). Non-traditional markets also showed 'promising' gains, where exports to Ethiopia rose by JD48 million, followed by Djibouti (JD24.4 million) and Thailand (JD14.3 million). At the sectorial level, eight sub-industries recorded export increases, led by the food, leather, and textile sectors, which together contributed 40 per cent of overall growth. The food industry alone saw a JD62 million increase, driven by rising demand from the Arab Gulf countries, Iraq, and East Africa, particularly for vegetable oils and canned goods. The chemical industry posted a JD41 million gain, boosted by exports of fertilisers, intermediate chemicals, and cosmetics. Demand for phosphate- and potash-based products continues to grow both regionally and globally. Construction-related industries added JD33 million to export totals, as demand surged from reconstruction markets like Iraq and Libya, fuelling shipments of ceramics, paints, and insulation materials. Clothing exports led in value growth, adding JD46 million, followed by nitrogen-based fertilisers (JD32 million), cement (JD28.2 million), and soap and detergents (JD21 million). Exports of sugar, cocoa, and related products also added JD37.1 million, while electrical equipment grew by JD16.2 million. 'These figures reflect the growing diversity of Jordan's industrial production base and its deeper integration into global supply chains,' the JCI said in the report. Despite the overall positive trend, several export categories saw declines. Gold and jewellery exports dropped by JD57 million, while ready-made garments fell by JD56 million. Exports of inorganic chemicals decreased by JD13.3 million, miscellaneous chemicals by JD10.2 million, raw phosphate by JD10 million, meat and derivatives by JD7 million, and copper products by JD4 million. Some markets also recorded falling demand for Jordanian goods. Exports to Switzerland declined by JD33.6 million, Palestine by JD26.5 million, Australia by JD12.1 million, Indonesia by JD11.2 million, Brazil by JD11 million, and South Korea by JD7 million. The chamber highlighted the importance of continuing to diversify export destinations and product offerings to reduce exposure to global economic fluctuations. The JCI also called for improving Jordan's logistics infrastructure, especially in air and land freight, as well as enhancing product competitiveness through innovation and quality. The chamber urged the government to support emerging sectors such as technology and green industries, and to boost cooperation with diplomatic missions and trade attachés to ease market access.
