On the good side, there are many aspects of the "Taiwan experience" --in agronomics, land reform, health and safety, education, family planning and even the process of democratization over recent years--which can serve as a reference for third world countries; but on the other hand Taiwan's record on product counterfeiting, environmental protection and other areas has attracted a good deal of international criticism.
從好處說，「台灣經驗」在農經、土改、安全衛生、教育、家庭計畫，乃至於這幾年的民主化過程，都有許多足以提供第三世界參考之處；但另一方面，台灣的商品仿冒、生態保育等，則引起較多的國際責難。
