</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt"><B>Market Review:</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The Taiwan Stock Exchange Index (&#147;TAIEX&#148;) dropped by 10.84% in U.S. dollar
terms in January. Foreign investors and local institutions net sold NT$
34.4billion and NT $4.5&nbsp;billion, respectively, while proprietary traders net
bought NT $2.3&nbsp;billion. In terms of sector performance, the tourism and the
financial sectors outperformed, rising by 17.3% and 6.4% month-over-month
(&#147;MoM&#148;), respectively. The plastic and the technology sectors underperformed,
dropping 21.6% and 16.9% MoM, respectively. On the economic front, in
December, Taiwan&#146;s consumer price index rose 3.3% year-over-year (&#147;YoY&#148;), a
smaller increase than the 4.8% increase that occurred in November. Exports
surged 19.8% YoY to US$23.5&nbsp;billion and the seasonally-adjusted unemployment
rate rose 0.02&nbsp;percentage points to 3.95%.</DIV>



<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Fund Performance Review:</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The Taiwan Fund, Inc. (the &#147;Fund&#148;) underperformed its benchmark by 1.33% in
January. Overweight positions in the retail sector and underweight positions in
the petrochemical sector contributed positively to the Fund&#146;s performance.
Underweight positions in the banking sector and overweight positions in the PCB
substrate sector negatively contributed to the Fund&#146;s performance.</DIV>



<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Investment Strategy:</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The TAIEX was quite volatile in January, as shares advanced following the
landslide legislative election win of the opposition party, the KMT. The
expectation of less political uncertainty at home and improved cross-straits
relations boosted investor confidence. However, the TAIEX rally was
short-lived, brought down by a global stock market crash, and exacerbated by a
particularly enfeebled Chinese stock market as a result of macroeconomic
controls and freak winter snowstorms. Taiwan&#146;s tech sector remains under
pressure given the high correlation with US economic performance and downward
earnings revisions by local securities houses. There are still some
uncertainties surrounding the demand situation, inventory control and strong
economic growth in emerging markets. HSBC Investment (Taiwan) Limited (the
&#147;Adviser&#148;) believes that the key for 2008 market performance and growth
prospects depends on the election outcome in March, as well as global growth
prospects.</DIV>



<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In terms of sector allocation, the Fund has a slightly over weight position in
technology, with a focus on bottom up earnings growth and market share gain
stories. The Fund has an under-weight position in cyclicals, and the Adviser
has increased the Fund&#146;s position in telecom as a defensive holding in the
volatile environment. The Fund holds a more neutral position in the financial
sector.
