Terms are trivialized when used frequently without being sufficiently defined - which is often the case in political discourse - and superficiality leads to irrelevance. But when politicians call for "building a knowledge-based economy," everyone should take them very seriously indeed. The concept is crucial to Taiwan's near-term business requirements and to the economy's long-term health.
