【 趙紫龍】: 為何台灣老有人憑感覺說台灣生活花費高﹐啥子民不聊生﹖根據這方面權威 Mercer's Annual Cost of Living Survey在2007年3月對世界143個主要都市的200項開支指數研究﹐結果在7月公佈了最昂貴的TOP 50都市。台灣生活費用最貴的台北市名列第48﹐竟然低於5個非洲及3個中東都市﹐還遠落後於亞洲一些知名城市。茲翻譯如下﹕
莫斯科 #1﹐倫敦#2﹐首爾#3﹐東京#4﹐香港#5﹐巴黎#13﹐新加坡#14﹐紐約#15﹐北京#20﹐上海#26﹐洛杉磯#41﹐台北#48。
Moscow is the world’s most expensive city for expatriates for the second consecutive year、according to the latest Cost of Living Survey from Mercer Human Resource Consulting. London is in second position、climbing three places since last year. Seoul moves down one place in the ranking to take third place、followed by Tokyo in fourth. Asuncion in Paraguay is the least expensive city for the fifth year running.
Mercer's annual Cost of Living Survey covers 143 cities across six continents and measures the comparative cost of over 200 items in each location、including housing、transport、food、clothing、household goods and entertainment.* It is the world’s most comprehensive cost of living survey and is used to help multinational companies and governments determine compensation allowances for their expatriate employees.
Top 50 rankings
Europe、Middle East、Africa: Europe dominated the top 50、placing 30 cities on the list and capturing six of spots in the top ten. Strong currencies helped push most European cities higher for 2007.
Africa placed five cities in the top 50、with Douala、Cameroon on top with a rank of 24. Four of the African cities climbed in the rankings while Lagos、Nigeria dropped from 31 to 37.
Four cities in the Middle East were in the top 50 for 2007、lead by Tel Aviv、Israel in 17th place. Istanbul、Turkey took the biggest drop in the top 50、from 15th to 38th.
Asia: Eight Asian cities were on the top 50 list、led by Seoul、Korea in third place. The biggest mover was Taipei、Taiwan which dropped from 28th to 48th.
Americas: Only two US cities made the list (New York City at 15th and Los Angeles at 42nd) thanks to the weak US dollar. No Canadian or Latin American cities were in the top 50.
Australasia: Sydney was the lone representative in the top 50、placing 19th.

The list below is of countries of the world by their gross domestic product per capita、the value of all final goods and services produced within a nation per capita、within a given year. The GDP figures are derived from purchasing power parity (PPP) calculations by the International Monetary Fund、which were compiled in September 2006、and deals with estimates.
The list includes the 2006,2007,2008 and 2009 list of 171 UN member states and Taiwan (Republic of China)、Hong Kong (a special administrative region of the People's Republic of China) and the Netherlands Antilles (a constituent part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands) as ranked by the International Monetary Fund. There is no current or accurate information on the UN member states of Iraq、North Korea、Somalia、Andorra、San Marino、Monaco、Liechtenstein、Micronesia、Palau、Marshall Islands、Nauru、and Tuvalu、nor Puerto Rico (a commonwealth of the United States)、and Macau (a special administrative region of the People's Republic of China)、so they have been excluded in the list.
All of the figures shown are calculated by the International Monetary Fund、and are in International dollars.

(中央社記者康世人新加坡十五日專電)「富比世」雜誌發表最新「稅率痛苦指數」調查,台灣排名全球稅務負擔最輕的第七名,香港排名全球第三名,而新加坡在全球排名第五;中國的「稅率痛苦指數」則名列全球第三痛苦的國家,僅次於法國、比利時。
這份調查報告指出,全球稅率痛苦指數最低的是阿拉伯聯合大公國,指數是十八,其次是卡達、香港(指數四十三點五)、賽普勒斯和新加坡(指數七十九點五)。
台灣的稅率痛苦指數則以八十二點一點排名第七,俄羅斯排名第六,而台灣之後的八到十名依序是:泰國、南非和馬來西亞。
調查發現,法國、比利時、中國、瑞士及義大利是稅率痛苦指數最高的五強;日本則排名全球第十三,在亞洲僅次於中國,稅率痛苦指數第二高。
「富比世」的稅率痛苦指數是根據各地公司稅率、個人所得稅、富人稅率、銷售稅與增值稅,及僱主和員工的社會保障貢獻等計算而得,分數愈高代表痛苦指數愈高,「富比世」並根據這項指數評估一地的政策是否有利吸引外來人才。
「富比世」這次共就五十個國家與經濟體進行調查,今年新增越南、保加利亞、卡達等三個國家列入評估。
調查指出,新加坡的稅率痛苦指數雖然維持低水準,但新加坡七月起將把消費稅由百分之五調高到百分之七,並把僱主公積金繳交率由百分之十三調高到百分之十四點五,因此今年的稅率痛苦指數將增加百分之三點五。
至於中國,「富比世」報告表示,中國今年的表現明顯改善,因為中國展開稅務改革計畫,把公司稅下調為百分之二十五,讓稅率痛苦指數下滑八點,由先前全球第二名下降一名到第三名。
整體而言,報告認為,歐洲聯盟十五個會員國和中國是全球稅率痛苦指數最高的國家;中國以外的亞洲、中東、俄羅斯和美國的指數最低;新加入歐盟的東歐國家稅率痛苦指數屬於中級或偏低。 960515
Forbes Misery And Happiness Indexes Jack Anderson 05.03.07、6:00 PM ET
The Misery Score is the sum of corporate income、personal income and wealth taxes plus employer social security、employee social security and VAT/sales taxes at the highest marginal rate in each locale. It is our best proxy for evaluating whether policy attracts or repels capital and talent. For some countries with high local or provincial taxes、we've listed a specific location.

At the same time、there is the flip side of the Misery Index--the Happiness Index、which measures how much an executive would be able to take home after taxes at various income levels: 50,000 euros、100,000 euros、200,000 euros and 1 million euros for married and single wage-earners. The take-home pay varies widely depending on how progressive the tax rates are in each of the countries.
