Why It Matters

巴拿馬於2017年與台灣斷交,但雙方在經貿、投資及港口物流領域仍保持實質往來。

〔財經頻道/綜合報導〕巴拿馬2017年與台灣斷交後,經貿往來仍有值得關注的發展。巴拿馬媒體近日披露,巴拿馬國會議員代表團訪台,尋求半導體投資與技術合作。報導指出,台灣是巴拿馬2025年第二大商品出口市場,並提及長榮海運也在當地經營科隆(Colón)貨櫃碼頭(CCT),自1997年起投入港口物流業務。該國議員還希望進一步拓展科技產業合作,並提出設立台灣商業代表處的構想。

台灣是巴拿馬第2大出口市場

《Panamá América》報導,儘管台馬自2017年以來雙方沒有正式外交關係,但技術數據顯示,台灣市場仍是巴拿馬出口體系中最活躍、獲利能力最強的貿易夥伴之一,其交易規模遠遠超過許多在巴拿馬設有完整外交使館的國家。

從多項經濟指標,可以看出台灣在巴拿馬貿易收支中的重要地位。巴拿馬官方貿易數據顯示,台灣是巴拿馬2025年第二大商品出口市場,相關出口金額超過1億巴波亞(約台幣34.4億),近年在若干時期的排名甚至超越美國等傳統貿易夥伴。

根據巴拿馬官方數據,台灣占巴拿馬外國直接投資存量總額的3.7%,年增率達2.3%。這項數據使台灣成為巴拿馬第七大投資來源地,也是亞洲最大的投資來源地,投資規模可與西班牙、加拿大及巴西等國相提並論。

報導強調,在巴拿馬2025年吸引的外國直接投資總額暴跌63%的背景下,投資金額從2024年的24億5400萬巴波亞,大幅降至2025年的9億500萬巴波亞。相較之下,台灣資金持續成長,成為重要的金融支撐。巴拿馬議員因此建議,應把握這項機會,緊急擴大與台灣的投資合作。

巴拿馬議員認為,即使雙方沒有正式外交關係,台灣仍具有經貿合作價值,值得持續尋找投資與技術交流機會。

報導也提到,台灣企業在巴拿馬已有物流與港口營運布局。巴拿馬國會代表團也會晤長榮海運,長榮海運營運的科隆貨櫃碼頭(Colon Container Terminal,CCT),自1997年起在當地經營,2025年貨櫃處理量達173萬TEU(20呎標準櫃),年增10.2%,提供逾600個直接工作機會。

看中台灣晶片實力盼搭上供應鏈

此次議員訪台的另一項重點,是評估巴拿馬如何參與半導體全球供應鏈。代表團參訪台灣新竹科學園區,了解晶片產業聚落與技術發展,希望尋找適合巴拿馬的切入點。

報導分析,巴拿馬缺乏與台灣競爭晶圓製造所需的產業條件,但可考慮發展區域物流、晶片配送、輕型封裝等環節,利用運河與物流基礎設施,爭取供應鏈中的商機。

議員也提及,台灣副總統蕭美琴、外交部長林佳龍及立法院長韓國瑜等人,曾與代表團進行會晤。巴拿馬媒體稱,台灣方面對評估巴拿馬作為拉丁美洲半導體供應鏈物流據點展現興趣;不過,這仍須與具體投資計畫及正式合作進展區分。

代表團此行也建議巴拿馬行政部門,研議設立台灣商業代表辦事處,以促進高科技投資、貿易與產業交流,並稱此作法不必改變目前外交關係的安排。
