Despite the challenges, preparations are well underway for our #Taiwan520 inauguration ceremony. I want to thank everyone working behind the scenes to make this event possible & helping share the best parts of #Taiwan with the world.
Minister Wu boils the need for #Taiwan's @WHO & #WHA73 participation down to 1 concept: fairness. Watch his interview with @rosiewright99 of @euronews & gain a deeper understanding of the issues in play, as well as the country's efforts to boost the global #Coronavirus response.
#Taiwan’s @SinicaFans is discussing with the #EU to develop vaccines & rapid testing to stop the spread of #COVID19. Time is of the essence as we work to #FlattenTheCurve, & it is heartening to see that we’re all in this together.
#Taiwan has doubled the length of annual reserve training & stepped up the intensity of exercises. These reforms strengthen our military mobilisation, demonstrate our commitment to self-defense & reflect our people's resolve to ensure our country's security.
As 2019 comes to a close, I look forward to what 2020 will bring for #Taiwan & our like-minded friends around the world. Wishing everyone a happy New Year!
It's wheels down for the top-flight congressional delegation led by @SpeakerPelosi & comprising @RepGregoryMeeks, @RepMarkTakano, @RepDelBene, @CongressmanRaja & @RepAndyKimNJ. Minister Wu welcomed our faithful #US🇺🇸 friends & wished them a superb visit. #Taiwan🇹🇼 is not alone! twitter.com/SpeakerPelosi/…
Disappointed to see Chinese censorship attempting to encroach on #Taiwan’s creative freedoms once again. Creative freedom is part of what makes democracy so vibrant, & no one should be subject to intimidation for exercising their freedom of speech.
We truly appreciate @jacindaardern speaking up for #Taiwan's participation in the @WHO. We cherish the common values we share with #NewZealanders, that is democracy, human rights, & rule of law, principles that are important to who we are as Taiwanese.
I want to thank the #US government for notifying the Congress of the sale of F-16V fighters to #Taiwan. We will continue to cooperate closely with the US on security issues, contribute to peace & stability in the Taiwan Strait, and safeguard our freedom & democracy.
My thanks for the touching National Day messages from fellow democracies around the world, particularly those sent by friends in #India🇮🇳. This support inspires us to keep our democracy out of the clutches of dictatorship. #Taiwan🇹🇼 will fight to the end & prevail! JW
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.
Happy to report that tests for #COVID19 on a sample sent to #Taiwan from the first suspected case in #Palau have returned negative. #TaiwanCanHelp safeguard human health, & we are more than willing to work with our allies & partners around the world.
It's great spending time with such great friends of Taiwan at the #ECCT Europe Day Dinner. #Taiwan and #Europe have always worked together to promote our economic development. By beginning discussions for a #BIA, we can open the door to an even more concrete partnership.
Minister Wu saw off a 40-strong #Taiwan🇹🇼 search & rescue team heading to #Türkiye🇹🇷. We remain ever grateful for the country’s immediate help after the devastating 921 earthquake in 1999, & now it’s our turn to hit the ground running.
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!
Thank you to the #US for supporting #Taiwan in our time of need. Your vaccine donation will go a long way toward the health of the Taiwanese people, & serves as yet another symbol of our strong bilateral ties.
On October 10 we celebrate #Taiwan’s National Day & another year for our dynamic, democratic society. Although we faced great challenges this year, our people came together to meet them head on & propel Taiwan forward. This is yet another year we can be truly #ProudofTaiwan.
A warm welcome to former US Secretary of State @mikepompeo and Mrs. Susan Pompeo. I look forward to exchanging views on how #Taiwan & the #US can further strengthen our partnership going forward.
Today I had the opportunity to meet some of our bravest men & women in uniform, our paratroopers. Their courage in the line of duty each day strengthens #Taiwan’s defense capabilities and our ability to provide emergency rescue & relief services.
Our diplomats work hard promoting #Taiwan’s image abroad. Ensuring our int’l space is important to the Taiwanese people, regardless of politics. I’m outraged at the behavior of “uninvited guests” at our National Day reception in #Fiji & grateful to our friends for their support. twitter.com/StateDept/stat…
I want to thank all of you for helping me reach 1.5 million followers! It's been a pleasure sharing my life in #Taiwan with you here on @Twitter. Let me know what you're interested in learning more about, whether it's my pets, tasty Taiwanese cuisine, or our delicious fruit 🍍.
We are now en route to visit our diplomatic allies #Guatemala & #Belize. The theme of this trip, "Meeting Democratic Partners, Fostering Shared Prosperity," expresses our determination to foster deeper exchange and cooperation between #Taiwan and our allies.
In a rapidly changing world, #Taiwan stands out as an ideal investment destination. We actively encourage international investors to capitalize on our stable economy & free, democratic society. Let’s work together to build a more prosperous world.
In 2020, #Taiwan posted economic growth of 2.98%, the strongest growth of any developed country last year. Thank you to all across Taiwan who came together to fight the pandemic — your sacrifices made this achievement possible.
We drew an end to our 🇹🇼 National Day celebrations with a dazzling fireworks display in Chiayi. Grateful to all who contributed to this occasion & to everyone supporting #Taiwan.
