Moderate | Primax Electronics provides a fair amount of detail about how it interacts with policymakers on climate issues. It identifies the specific policy framework it engages on—the Taiwan Climate Change Response Act, its related sub-laws, and the renewable energy certificate purchasing system—demonstrating openness about the subject of its advocacy. The company explains that its contact with officials from the Ministry of Economic Affairs and the Environmental Protection Agency occurs through experience-sharing sessions and by submitting recommendations on draft regulations, giving clear insight into both the mechanisms used and the governmental targets involved. Primax also states the concrete changes it supports, including incorporating the 2050 net-zero commitment into law, clarifying and establishing implementing rules under the Act, and “further promoting corporate participation in the net-zero transition,” thereby revealing the outcomes it seeks from these engagements. While Primax emphasises that it does not fund or orchestrate formal lobbying campaigns beyond paying association dues, the disclosure nevertheless outlines the substance, methods and objectives of its policy outreach, offering a moderate level of transparency overall. | 2 |
