#AIT Chairman Moriarty & I agree that #Taiwan’s ability to contain #COVID19 is a testament to our strong democratic system. It also underscores the value we can bring to international organizations by sharing our knowledge, experience, & generosity to benefit humankind.
We sincerely thank @SpeakerPelosi for the strong message of #US support. Passage of the #TAIPEI Act is a resounding vote of confidence in #Taiwan & its democracy. The country will keep working with like-minded partners in promoting peace, freedom & #HumanRights across the region. twitter.com/SpeakerPelosi/…
#Taiwan’s ability to contain the #COVID19 outbreak is a tribute to our unity & resilience. It also speaks to the collaboration between our government, people, & the many private businesses that have ramped up production to protect public health & make the impossible possible:

Taiwan's government collaborated with local manufacturers to build 60 surgical mask production lines in 25 days. Watch @iingwen visit a newly built facility & see how the hard work paid dividends. #Taiwan is an #IslandOfResilience. twitter.com/iingwen/status…
I visited a pharmacy in #Taipei to learn how they’re working to prevent the spread of #COVID19 & ensure people have access to a steady supply of face masks. Truly touched by their dedication to keeping #Taiwan safe & healthy.
As I celebrate the arrival of my 800,000th follower, I want to ask: What do you love about #Taiwan? What would you like to see more of? I love my country, & I want to share more of its beauty with you all.

Like-minded partners can conquer any challenge.⛰ It boils down to flexible thinking, intellectual quality & courage.💪 @NaokazuTakemoto is a kindred spirit & true believer in SDGs.🌏 I value his friendship & am excited at the prospect of more #Taiwan🇹🇼-#Japan🇯🇵 collaboration. twitter.com/NaokazuTakemot…
A smart letter to @Nature on #Taiwan's exclusion from @WHO being "an inexcusable liability for global health" & a danger to millions of people. @chasewnelson makes it clear the world has everything to gain & nothing to lose by acknowledging #TaiwanCanHelp. nature.com/articles/d4158…
Thanks @NBCNews for reporting on how the government's active, holistic approach to tackling #COVID19 is paying off. #Taiwan's open leadership & universal health coverage encourage public buy-in. The country is willing & able to share this expertise. nbcnews.com/health/health-…
Curious why postal trucks in #Taiwan have started flying red flags? It turns out, they’re on a very important mission:
I want to thank the #US Senate & House of Representatives for unanimously passing the Taiwan Allies International Protection and Enhancement Initiative (TAIPEI) Act, showing bipartisan support for #Taiwan’s free, democratic way of life through concrete action.
#Taiwan is a beacon of freedom, democracy & rule of law. We thank the #US for highlighting this fact in @StateDept's latest #HumanRights report. The government will keep strengthening such values in Taiwan & with other like-minded countries in the #IndoPacific & around the world. twitter.com/StateDept/stat…
#Taiwan is missing from this map of countries with female leaders. President @iingwen was recently reelected by a clear majority. @UN_Women should recognize her governance of a free & prosperous democracy.
Our government continues to take a comprehensive, proactive approach to #COVID19, and I have issued five directives to address the pandemic’s possible impact on #Taiwan's economy. Details here: english.president.gov.tw/NEWS/5984
