STATEMENT OF
J. KENNETH FASICK
DIRECTOR
INTERNATIONAL DIVISION
BEFORE THE
SUBCOMMITTEE ON EAST ASIAN AND PACIFIC AFFAIRS
SENATE COMMITTEE ON FOREIGN RELATIONS
ON
SIMPLEMENTATION OF THE TAIWAN RELATIONS ACT]
Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:
We appreciate the opportunity to testify today on our
review of the Implementation of the Taiwan Relations Act which
was undertaken at the request of the Subcommittee Chairman.
Although the Act has only been in effect about a year, enough
experience has been gained for an assessment of successes and
problems.
In our review we looked at how the Taiwan Relations Act is
being implemented. We focused on the operations of the Ameri-
can Institute in Taiwan (AlT); the status of treaties and agree-
ments; how Taiwan's military equipment needs will be determined;
and how foreign military sales (FMS) to Taiwan are handled.
