A warm welcome to this group of leaders taking part in the Global Assembly of the World Movement for Democracy @MoveDemocracy. #Taiwan is honoured to host the #WM11Assembly, which will start tomorrow & welcome democracy advocates from around the world.
Every September 28 #Taiwan celebrates Teachers' Day, so today I want to thank all the educators in Taiwan & around the world for their contributions, especially throughout the pandemic which presented so many new challenges for teachers & students alike.
As the Lunar New Year holiday comes to a close, I want to wish everyone in #Taiwan & around the world all the best for the coming year. May the #YearOfTheTiger bring you good health & good fortune!
Pleased to personally thank European Chamber (ECCT) Chair Mr. Izzo today for his efforts, & thank the #EU for supporting our @WHO participation. As the #2019nCoV spreads, #Taiwan can play a key role in containing the contagion on the front line of global epidemic prevention.
In #Kaohsiung today to witness the delivery of the Chiayi & the launch of the Hsinchu, two new 4000-ton Coast Guard patrol vessels. These ships mark a big step forward for #Taiwan's shipbuilding industry & show our determination to secure our waters.
Great to meet with Representative Jenny Bloomfield @AusOfficeTPE at the Presidential Office today. I look forward to an even stronger partnership between #Taiwan & #Australia, as we continue to work together to promote stability & prosperity in the Indo-Pacific.
I am proud to be part of reimagining Taiwan with @Microsoft & welcome their investment. Our collaboration is yet another step forward for the #Taiwan-#US partnership, as we reimagine supply chains & create business opportunities for a better tomorrow.
Proud to hand our new Black Hawk helicopters over to the men & women in uniform dedicated to rescuing those in need. Your important work helps keep #Taiwan safe, & for that we are forever grateful.
Enjoyed a productive meeting with MP Klaus-Peter Willsch & his @Bundestag delegation. We are deeply grateful for #Germany's support for #Taiwan's international participation & look forward to building on our bilateral values-based partnership.
The @yushanforum is a bridge for dialogue between #Taiwan & #Asia. I was glad to share our many successes in engaging with the region at this year’s event, & I’m sure that once we’ve got past the pandemic, we will continue to build a safer, more prosperous world together.
A shipment of more than half a million AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine doses arrived in #Taiwan earlier today. Thank you to everyone involved in acquiring, inspecting, distributing & administering these vaccines. Every dose counts!
I've registered online to get #Taiwan's domestically developed Medigen COVID-19 vaccine. Our country's health authorities have confirmed that Medigen & all other COVID-19 vaccines available in Taiwan are safe & effective. I encourage everyone to get their shot when eligible.
The ongoing shift in global supply chains is a perfect opportunity for #Taiwan to strengthen connections with our friends across the #EU. Together, we can build more resilient & reliable supply chains that benefit businesses on both sides.
It’s great to have a trusted partner like the #US! Thank you @USAmbUN for recognising #Taiwan’s contributions to public health & economic development and supporting our inclusion in the @UN system. We know that with greater int'l participation, we can do even more for the world. twitter.com/USAmbUN30/stat…
Today's arrival of Moderna COVID-19 vaccines brings the total doses delivered to #Taiwan to nearly 2.4 million. We have already vaccinated more than 1.3 million people, and will continue to acquire & distribute vaccines to ensure everyone in Taiwan is protected.
Proud to speak at the @Forum_2000 Conference & reiterate our country’s solemn commitment to upholding our democratic values. Facing the resurgence of authoritarianism, #Taiwan will continue to work with our international partners to defend freedom, democracy & human rights.
.@iingwen & #Taiwan are showing the world how a woman-led country can soundly manage the #COVID19 pandemic. The #TaiwanModel, featuring decisiveness & plenty of empathy & solidarity, is key. Yes! #TaiwanCanHelp combat #Coronavirus & realize #HealthForAll. forbes.com/sites/avivahwi…

In this fight against the pandemic, #Taiwan's military is answering the call of duty as it always does: with honor, commitment, & professionalism. Thank you to @MoNDefense and everyone in uniform for helping keep us safe.
