John Heron writes "As reported today in the Taiwan Economic News, Taiwan is setting up a nano-industry association 'as part of the government's plan to boost output value of the island's industry using nanometer technology to NT$300 billion (US$9.1 billion at US$1:NT$) in 2008.' From the examples given in the article, field emission displays (FED) and optical disk technology improvements, I'd guess this is more marketing for material science under a different name rather than a molecular manufacturing initiative, but it is another government jumping on the nanotech bandwagon."
