Delighted to take part in the unveiling of NYCU's Industry Academia Innovation School in #Hsinchu. This new institution for talent development will help keep #Taiwan’s semiconductor & tech industry at the forefront of innovation.
In a diverse society like #Taiwan, all cultures & languages deserve recognition. I was proud to attend the Indigenous Languages Development Conference, where we shone a light on Taiwan’s indigenous languages & discussed how best to preserve our treasured cultural heritage.
As this #Ramadan comes to an end, I wish an #EidMubarak to all our Muslim friends in #Taiwan & around the world. May you & your families enjoy good food & warm company.
Thank you, Vice President @nicolabeerfdp, for leading the @Europarl_EN in advocating for closer #Taiwan-#EU ties. Grateful to meet with you & discuss avenues for further cooperation as like-minded partners.
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.
It was a pleasure to meet with German Institute Taipei Director Prinz today & thank both #Germany & the #EU for supporting #Taiwan’s international participation. Taiwan-Germany cooperation spans diverse fields, & I look forward to further expanding our ties in the next 4 years.

Through a year of ups & downs we’ve shared so many important moments. Here are some that stood out for you & me here on @Twitter in 2020. Thank you for joining me on this journey & sharing yours with #Taiwan. Let’s make 2021 a year to remember for all the right reasons.
「布袋戯」は台湾の貴重な無形文化財であり、多くの人にとって子ども時代の懐かしい思い出でもあります。『台湾、街かどの人形劇』は国宝級人形遣い、陳錫煌さんを10年間追い続けたドキュメンタリー映画です。人間国宝が生み出す人形劇の世界をぜひご覧ください。上映時間:machikado2019.com/theater.php
This #LunarNewYear's Day I visited members of our military, police force, search & rescue agency, & electric utility to thank them for their dedication to ensuring #Taiwan's safety & stability, giving us peace of mind at this special time of year.
For the second year in a row, #Taiwan received a score of 93 in @freedomhouse’s 2019 report. As president of this country, I will safeguard our hard-earned freedom & democracy for generations to come. No act of intimidation will change my determination.
Saddened to learn of the passing of the Seediq tribe’s Ipay Wilang, the last surviving preserver of traditional indigenous facial tattoos in Taiwan. Her lifetime of contributions will continue to inspire us in our efforts to preserve Taiwan’s diverse indigenous cultures.
Today I bid farewell to #Nicaragua Ambassador Tapia after 12 years of service. We thank you for standing with #Taiwan & never hesitating to voice your support in times of need. Taiwan will always be your second home.
Today #Taiwan took delivery of our second COVID-19 vaccine donation from #Lithuania. This continued support is not only deeply appreciated by the Taiwanese people, it also demonstrates the strength of our countries' democratic partnership.
Welcome back to #Taiwan, Prime Minister @JohnBricenoBZE. I look forward to engaging with you & your delegation on how to further deepen Taiwan's friendship & cooperation with #Belize.
We must come together & engage in open dialogue to ensure stability in the #IndoPacific. #Taiwan is committed to the peace of our region.
Thanks @WIRED for including me, former VP Chen, & @audreyt in this year’s #WIRED25, along with other changemakers, for our effective response to #COVID19. Our success belongs to all the people of #Taiwan, who are always willing to contribute to the world. twitter.com/WIRED/status/1…

A pleasure to exchange views on #Taiwan's ongoing energy transition with leaders from the semiconductor & renewable energy industries. Our government is working closely with the private sector to ensure Taiwan's future sustainability & competitiveness.
I held a virtual meeting with the Taiwan Medical Association to discuss our pandemic response & thank our dedicated medical workers for their work fighting COVID-19. #Taiwan is truly grateful for all the sacrifices you & your families have made over this difficult time.
Headed to Hsinchu today to see #Taiwan's vaccination drive in action. Pleased to see so many people getting their shots with the help of our dedicated medical workers. Make your own vaccination appointment as soon as possible!
Great to meet with a cross-party delegation from the #Taiwan caucus of the Indonesian House of Representatives @DPR_RI. We deeply value our friendship with #Indonesia & look forward to even closer cooperation to advance the well-being of both our peoples.
It’s great to know we have such good friends all over the continent of #Africa! We welcome the founding of Africa’s Formosa Club & your support for #Taiwan’s participation in the @WHO. This is an excellent platform for strengthening Taiwan’s partnerships throughout Africa. twitter.com/MOFA_Taiwan/st…
