Sorry to bring up this old topic again.
Does anybody know how easy/hard it is to enforce IP Laws in Taiwan ? Technically they are still part of China. But how does reality look like ? Anybody has any experience with IP Protection/enforcement in Taiwan ?
Horror/success stories ?

No stories. The highly in awe regarded Philosopher Kung Ze (Confuzius over here) said 2000 years ago : "To become master, copy the master". This is deeply etched inside every chinese. Learn by copying ! Give them another century while awaiting the pope to advertize condoms against AIDS.

Technically Taiwan is not part of China, only the CP of mainland China & KMT of Taiwan insists this, the people of Taiwan don't believe it and even fear it.
Their laws are already pretty close to US if not a direct copies. Umm. Even the street signs are either UK or US copies umm, I'm always amused when I see those UK signs to describe the smallest irrelevant street features. Alot of what makes Taiwan modern though comes from the Japanese colonial days.
Still I would take the usual protections, at least you are free to go and check and resolve it legally. I doubt you could do that in PRC.
