Their current situation is similar to that in Taiwan when they left in the 1980s: shortages of labor, water, and electricity. What's more, immense upward pressure on the Renminbi has attracted large speculative inflows of foreign currency, pushing up prices and whittling away at the already narrow profit margins of the export industries.
目前的珠三角場景，宛如台商大舉出走的一九八○年代的台灣：缺工、缺水、缺電，而人民幣升值的壓力沈重，招引了國際熱錢流入，物價墊高，對利潤微薄的出口型產業造成莫大的成本負擔。
