Proud to host #Taiwan’s outstanding military academy graduates at the Presidential Office. Given our rapidly changing world and increased PLA activities, I encouraged them to remain vigilant & confident as they protect our national territory & defend our sovereignty & democracy.

🗽 Watch me flesh out the finer details of #Taiwan's digital democracy with @dbiello of @TEDTalks. ♻️ Learn more about the #TaiwanModel & its many moving parts. 🇹🇼 Yes! #TaiwanCanHelp build inclusive, resilient & sustainable societies after #COVID19. go.ted.com/audreytang
Today was an important milestone for both #Taiwan’s aerospace industry & our indigenous aircraft program, as our new domestically built combat-capable advanced jet trainer “Brave Eagle" (#勇鷹)successfully completed its inaugural flight. We made it!
Watch #Taiwan's 1st indigenously developed advanced jet trainer soar through the skies of #Taichung. Brave Eagle is proof of the government's rock-solid commitment to strengthening the country's defences while cultivating #NextGen #Aerospace industry talents. (📽 via @mna_roc)
We sincerely thank @SecPompeo of @StateDept for recognizing #Taiwan's #Coronavirus-combating credentials. The country is willing & able to share the #TaiwanModel with @WHO member states. Cooperation, friendship & solidarity are key to managing #COVID19 & realizing #HealthForAll. twitter.com/eAsiaMediaHub/…
There was a spectacular show above #Taiwan yesterday, with our F-16s flying against the backdrop of a solar eclipse. That kind of eclipse is rare, but our Air Force is monitoring our airspace 24/7/365, & I’m grateful for their dedication to protecting the nation. 📷:@mna_roc
Outstanding photograph by @mna_roc. The annular #SolarEclipse was watched around the country June 21, with #Chiayi the hot spot for skygazers. It's reassuring to know the air force will never be overshadowed, even by an astronomical phenomenon. #Taiwan is an #IslandOfResilience. twitter.com/MoNDefense/sta…
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.
Our #SouthAfrica Rep. Chou proudly donated 100K masks to Amb. Teklemariam of #Ethiopia on behalf of the government & people. #TaiwanCanHelp #Africa, as well as @DrTedros' home country, combat #Coronavirus. #Taiwan successfully manages #COVID19 & is a force for good in the world.
#Taiwan will support the people of #HongKong in protecting their freedom, democracy & #HumanRights, as well as provide care for them. Read @MAC_Taiwan's release for details of the #HK Humanitarian Aid Project & Taiwan-HK Office for Exchanges & Services. ➡️bit.ly/2V1BHoy
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
I see the potential for greater economic cooperation in the post-#COVID19 era & #Taiwan is a strong, reliable partner. Like-minded democracies around the world need to work together to establish new, diverse, & resilient supply chains, with Taiwan as a key link. #InvestTaiwan
Today at #CDS2020 I talked about why a democratic #Taiwan has an important role to play in global affairs. We stand on the frontline of the community of democracies, and remain a critical asset in the fight against the #COVID19 pandemic & authoritarian forces worldwide.
#WorldRefugeeDay is a time to remember #EveryActionCounts. Watch our touching short "#Taiwan Story-Together Stronger" & see how #TaiwanCanHelp create a more just, equal & inclusive world. We're proud to be making a difference in #Africa & #Asia via 450 programs in 60+ countries.
The people of #Taiwan have long empathised with the plight of people in #HongKong, & we’re taking substantive action to assist & protect those in need. Our Taiwan-Hong Kong Office for Exchanges & Services is dedicated to helping #HKers transition to a new life here in Taiwan.

#China has proven itself as an aggressor, a warmonger, and a bully country. #India, as well as #Australia, #Taiwan and #HK - everyone who had been bullied by China should stand firm and stay united against #CCP aggression. twitter.com/TimesNow/statu…
I’m proud to announce that @OIEAnimalHealth has officially declared #Taiwan an FMD free zone where vaccination is not practised, and our pork can now be exported to global markets! We’ll soon start negotiating exports & open more markets for our delicious pork products.
We welcome @OIEAnimalHealth's designation of #Taiwan as foot & mouth disease-free where vaccination is not practiced. The result is testament to the commitment & hard work of the government & people. It also paves the way for the country to resume pork exports after 24 years.
Thank you very much @EsperDoD for stating the #US commitment to a democratic #Taiwan. We're on the front line of democracies & are determined to remain a beacon of hope for those aspiring to be free. JW twitter.com/EsperDoD/statu…
A 4th automatic 30-day extension for foreign nationals entering #Taiwan on or before March 21 via standard channels is in effect. We're minimizing the inconvenience caused by global #Coronavirus travel restrictions for the country's friends from abroad. ➡️bit.ly/2UHcm36
Which countries outperformed in combating #Coronavirus & preparing for the post-pandemic new life? @ianbremmer's @EurasiaGroup takes the @TIME to assess responses using health care, financial & political metrics. Yes! #Taiwan & #TaiwanModel made the list. time.com/5851633/best-g…
At the Talent Circulation Alliance White Paper release today, I reaffirmed our goals to enhance the bilingual & digital skills of local talent, while recruiting more international professionals & students to globalize our industries & make #Taiwan an international talent hub.
I'm proud to see our "Brave Eagle" taking off. Glad the policy of making AJT domestically is followed through. With this result, I see a bright future for our aerospace industry & #Taiwan's air-defense. JW twitter.com/MoNDefense/sta…
It's excellent news, indeed, @marcorubio via @SenRubioPress. The announced visit to #Taiwan by @SenatCZ President @Vystrcil_Milos of the #CzechRepublic underscores the importance of democracies around the world standing as one in the defense of freedom, democracy & human rights. twitter.com/SenRubioPress/…
