Taiwan applied to the Secretariat of GATT in 1989 for joining the orga- nization. Up to now, each member nation of the organization has shown strong concern about Taiwan''s protection of agricultural and automobile industries as those measures contradict GATT st- ipulations. However, the development conditions of Taiwan''s aut- omobile industries are worse than those of industrialized devel- oped nations. The guidance measures originally implemented dome- stically are very important to domestic industries. Thus from the viewpoint of the government, the ways to adjust these measures have to be seriously considered. This research was conducted by the use of the brain-storming met- hod, taking into consideration of the overall benefit to the cou- ntry. According to the 5 phases of policy, economics, technology, society, and implementation, thirteen evaluation criteria are formulated to propose various feasible alternatives (measures) that are suitable for our nation. They are based on our present various measures on automobile industry, referring to the strate- gies each member nation took before entering GATT and combining relevant domestic expert opinions via questionnaires. The AHP me- thod of Multiple criterion decision Making (MCDM) is used to obt- ain the relative importance of each evaluation criterion." Under each criterion, direct-view evaluation points are given to the formulated alternatives according to expert''s knowledge. Finally, it uses FUZZY TOPSIS method, associating the evaluation matrix with the weight of each criterion to obtain the priority rankings of each alternative for reference in formulating policies.
