Lin concludes that as long as the country can hold its own in this respect, it doesn't really matter what policy the government adopts- "boldly go west" (encouraging investment in China) or "no haste, be patient" (restraining such investment) -the outlook for the economy will be upbeat.
林信義認為，只要能堅持這一點，無論「大膽西進」或「戒急用忍」都不是問題，台灣的經濟仍是樂觀的。
