Before the elections, I said that #Taiwan would come together to defend our freedom & democracy. Over the past 6 months, #HongKong has shown us how precious that commitment is. I hope the people of Hong Kong take heart in the message our elections have sent to the world.

As 2021 comes to a close, I want to thank the people of #Taiwan for overcoming challenges & working to make our country a better place. In 2022, we will continue to stand together & be one with the world.

The people of #Taiwan have proven to the world that we do not give in to threats. We will continue to stand with our diplomatic allies and like-minded global partners as we work toward a better future for all.

Today I got my first shot of #Taiwan’s own Medigen vaccine. Thank you to all our medical workers for making this such a smooth & painless process. I encourage everyone to get vaccinated as soon as possible—vaccines protect you & those around you from COVID-19.

From last year’s anti-extradition movement to recent national security law legislation, the deterioration of democracy in #HongKong concerns me & many in #Taiwan. At #CDS2020, I reaffirmed our resolve to stand in solidarity with #HKers who cherish freedom & #DefendDemocracy.

Freedom is not free. It is something we have to work for and defend every day. In #Taiwan we never take our hard-earned freedom for granted, & as we build, renew, & sustain democracy at home, we are supporting democracy in our region & around the world. #CDS2020 #DefendDemocracy

Today I visited our troops to thank them for all they do to keep the people of #Taiwan safe. While we enjoy this long weekend & celebrate Dragon Boat Festival, our soldiers will be on guard, protecting our country & giving us peace of mind.

As @ChingteLai & I prepared to take the oath of office, I reflected on the responsibilities of my second term & the urgency of our mission. I am more determined than ever to fulfill that mission, & lead #Taiwan on the path to greater democracy, prosperity, peace & security.

Hats off to friends from around the world this year, #India🇮🇳 in particular, for celebrating #TaiwanNationalDay. With your support, #Taiwan🇹🇼 will definitely be more resilient in meeting challenges, especially those "Get Lost" types. JW

I regret that @WHO has once again excluded #Taiwan from international dialogue for political reasons. Politics should never override professionalism, & no amount of pressure will stop us from continuing to fight #COVID19 & contribute to global health. #TaiwanIsHelping

Say “Happy New Year” to a friend in #Taiwan! Here many of us say “xīnnián kuàilè” (新年快樂) in #Mandarin or “sin-nî-khuài-lo̍k” in #Taiwanese. How do you wish people a Happy New Year in your language?

Today I went to support our reservists & see our new military reserve training for myself. Facing a growing authoritarian threat, the people of #Taiwan are committed to defending our nation & way of life.
