Taishang (Chinese: 臺商; pinyin: Tái Shāng) are Taiwanese businesspeople who do business in mainland China.[1] The term literally translates into English as "Taiwan Business." There are no official statistics on the number of Taishang working in mainland China. Unofficial estimates circulating in 2011 suggested that between 1 million and 3 million Taiwanese nationals (including family members) lived in mainland China.[2]
