縣府成立招商專案辦公室
    Kinmen  County  Government  specifically  set  up  a  "Kinmen  County  Investment  Promotion  Project  Office"  to  actively  attract  and  promote  foreign  investment,  coordinate  with  the  global  business  recruiting  policy  of  the  Central  Government,  provide  firms  with  legal  counsel  on  related  laws,  improve  investment  promotion  efficiency,  provide  assistance  for  various  investments  to  overcome  hurdles  (1)  and  obstacles.    The  goals  for  the  Office  are  to  establish  an  efficient  investment  promotion  mechanism;  create  a  pro-investment  environment;  provide  overseas  and  domestic  investors  with  comprehensive  investment  service  throughout  the  whole  investment  process  (to  save  the  time  they  need  for  investment);  increase  the  amount  of  total  investments  in  Kinmen;  and  boost  investment  performance.    Eventually,  county  government  hopes  that  the  setup  of  this  Office  will  lead  to  the  expansion  of  job  opportunities  and  the  prosperity  of  the  local  economy  in  Kinmen.    The  Economic  Affairs  Bureau  indicated  that  the  Chairman  of  the  "Investment  Promotion  Project  Office"  will  be  held  by  the  Magistrate,  while  the  Vice-chairman  will  be  held  by  the  Deputy  Magistrate.    An  "Investment  Promotion  Consulting  Committee"  will  be  established.    In  addition,  under  the  Office,  there  will  be  three  departments  which  will  include  the  "Investment  Promotion  Project  Center,"    "Investment  Promotion  Service  Center",  and  "Investment  Promotion  Management  Center".
   縣府為積極招商引資,並配合中央提出的的全球招商政策,提供企業投資相關法令及諮詢服務工作、提高招商行政效率、協助克服各項投資障礙,特別成立「金門縣招商專案辦公室」,希望建立有效率之招商機制,營造優良投資環境,提供海內外投資人在金投資全程之服務,期藉此縮短投資者投資時程,增加對金門地區的整體投資金額,提昇投資績效,最終達成繁榮地方經濟及擴大就業機會之目標。縣府建設局並指出,「招商專案辦公室」將由縣長兼任召集人,副縣長兼任副召集人,成立「招商諮詢委員會」,並設「招商專案中心」、「招商服務中心」及「招商管理中心」等三部門。
