【禁闻】缺工严重 台商外移东南亚、印度

【新唐人2011年4月12日讯】近年来由于中国沿海省份缺工,许多台商决定迁移。虽有台商选择搬到内地,但内陆省份同样存在人力不足等问题。以广东珠三角地带的台商传统产业为例,许多台商决定迁移到,近年来投资环境相对改善的印尼、孟加拉与缅甸等,人口较多的国家。

台湾《中国时报》4月9号报导,由于中国沿海地区缺工,受到冲击最大的台商制鞋业,近年来不断传出有厂商出走。而且不是迁到内陆,是决定外移到南亚或印度。

报导指出,曾在广州中山、东莞与江西瑞昌设厂的合兴鞋业,总经理陈启安表示,因为广东缺工,原本决定到江西投资,没想到江西一样缺工。预计招收三千人,最后只招到一千多人。中国缺工已成为全国性问题。“合兴鞋业”考虑未来三年内,在广东中山市的高级休闲鞋制造厂,将外移到孟加拉或缅甸。

此外,制鞋大厂台湾宝成集团,现今在印尼与越南厂的产能已超过中国,“宝成”计划把孟加拉作为新的海外生产重镇。而专门为耐克(Nike)代工的丰泰企业,则打算在印度设厂,未来可能取代中国的产能。台企联常务副会长黄良华的制鞋工厂,虽然把广东佛山的生产线迁移到湖北,却同样招不到工人,原本规划的十条生产线,最后只有二条能运作。

《中时》报导指出,虽然官方大力宣传台商前进内陆,但内陆地方政府承诺的多,跳票的也很多。有台商私下透露,一些贴息、运费补贴与协助招工等优惠,只有大型企业才可能拿到,中小型台商就别想了。

问题不只如此,比如一家在内蒙古投资的台商,零八年全球金融海啸阵痛还没过,地方政府就急着把还没开发的土地收回去,先前的承诺也大多跳票。也有台商才到内陆投资不到三年,当地政府就开始追着台商,追问怎么还没盈利?要赶快缴税了。也有台商因为建厂速度不够快,内陆地方政府经常要胁,再不建厂就要把土地收回。就算想转让部分土地筹现金,也多被官方拒绝。

一家原本在广东珠三角设厂的制鞋业老板感叹:中国沿海省份缺工人,内陆投资环境又不好,台商会考虑搬到东南亚或印度设厂是很正常的。

China’s Labor Shortage

In recent years many Taiwanese businessmen are
relocating due to labor shortage around coastal areas
as well as Mainland provinces of China.
For example, many of them have relocated
from Guangdong to Indonesia, Bangladesh
and Myanmar, countries with better investment
environment and larger populations.

Taiwan’s China Times reported on April 9, that
labor shortage around China’s coastal areas has
severely impacted Taiwan’s largest footwear industry.
Many manufacturers have moved in recent years,
not back to China but to South Asia or India.

According to the report, general manager Chen Qian
of Hexing Factory said, due to labor shortage in
Guangdong, he planned to invest in Jiangxi Province,
but Jiangxi had the same problem. He expected to
recruit 3,000 workers but hired just over
1,000 instead. Labor shortage is a national
issue. Hexing Factory in Guangdong plans to move
to Bangladesh or Myanmar within 3 years.

In addition, production capacity of Pou Chen Group,
a footwear maker in Taiwan, Indonesia and Vietnam,
is now greater than China. Pou Chen Group plans to
make Bangladesh the new overseas production center.
Winterthur Enterprises plans for Nike’s factories
in India. Huang Lianghua, executive vice president
of Taiwan Business Alliance, moved his shoe factory
from Guangdong to Hubei. But due to labor shortage,
only two of his ten production lines are operating.

“When" pointed out that, while Taiwanese officials
promote vigorous investing in mainland, local
governments in China left many broken promises.
Many Taiwanese say: “Only large enterprises
can get transportation and recruitment subsidies;
smaller companies are excluded from that.”

That is not the only problem.For example Taiwanese
invested in Inner Mongolia in 2008 when the pain
from the global financial crisis had not eased yet;
local governments were taking the undeveloped land
back and left many broken promises.
Sometimes local governments forced the Taiwanese
to pay tax before the gain was realized. They also
threatened to take the land back if factories were built
too slow. Even when the owners were willing to lease
some of the land for cash, they were turned down.

A shoe factory owner in Guangdong sighed:
“With labor shortage around coastal areas
plus poor investment environment in mainland,
relocation to Southeast Asia or India is quite normal.”
