The Taiwan External Trade and Development Council (TAITRA) has sent a trade mission to Syria and Jordan with the objective to increase bilateral trade, with special emphasis being laid on the garment manufacturing and electronic cable sector.
It is estimated that US $4 million worth of trade orders will be signed by the trade mission. TAITRA intends to build on Taiwan's success in tapping into the garment manufacturing in particular and pipe industries in Syria.
Bi-lateral trade with Syria in 2009 touched $166 million, up 26 percent from that in 2007, which is however, well below Taiwan's bilateral trade with Jordan, even though Jordan's population is less than one-third of Syria's.
