Very much looking forward to seeing @President_Heine & gathering with other female leaders in a few days. #OceansOfDemocracy #WomenEmpowerment #SheForShe #TsaiForShe twitter.com/Senator_Heine/…
I called President @JuanOrlandoH this morning to congratulate his re-election, as confirmed by the Honduran Supreme Electoral Tribunal. @JuanOrlandoH was the first world leader to congratulate my election last year & I’m happy to return the call today.
Today we commemorate the lives that perished during the 228 Incident 71 yrs ago. Only when we reconcile w/ the past, can we move forward together. Soon we’ll launch a Transitional Justice Promotion Committee & tell the world #Taiwan’s stories of pursuing #democracy & #HumanRights
I also had the pleasure of conversing with the USTBC delegation, all important leaders in business. Today's conversation left me feeling very confident about the future of #Taiwan-#US trade.
#Defense: “As long as I am president, our national defense budget will grow steadily every year. Our lean & combat-ready troops absolutely have the ability to defend the sovereignty of the Republic of China." bit.ly/2IQ6T3a #DoubleTen
#TaiwanTravelAct symbolizes the #US Congress' longstanding support for #Taiwan. The Taiwan-US partnership is a key pillar of peace & stability for the Indo-Pacific region & I am grateful to all members of Congress who supported this important bill
Such an honour to commission two Cheng Kung-class frigates this morning. Faced with traditional & nontraditional challenges, we will resolutely strengthen our self-defence capabilities & safeguard the people of #Taiwan's freedom & democratic way of life. #TaiwanStrong
Prime Minister @pmharriskn hosted us at a lovely banquet, complete with lively discussions. #Taiwan is collaborating with #StKitts & #Nevis in many different areas, & we look forward to strengthening our partnership to promote development & achieve the #SDGs. #JFDS2019
At the 3rd annual #HolocaustRemembranceDay event in #Taiwan, we affirm our responsibilities to “Never Forget. Never Again.” We will launch a new #HumanRights museum to engage w/ the world, as well as strengthen human rights education for generations to come
Just had a quiet Friday evening at the Presidential Office
#鈴木けいすけ 衆議員が率いる日本 #自民党青年局 の皆さまと総統府で会合を行いました。彼らがいつも台日交流を積極的に図り、台湾訪問を国際交流の「起点」にすること、大変感銘しています。台湾と日本の若手政治家が手を繋ぎ、交流をさらに深めていただきたいと願います。
Today #Taiwan joins the rest of the world to mark #InternationalWomensDay. While we recognize the progress we’ve made towards #genderparity, we recommit to #PressForProgess for all women & girls around the world
On #ArmedForcesDay, I want to express my gratitude to all those who keep #Taiwan safe each & every day. I especially want to honour the brave members of our armed services who have paid the ultimate sacrifice for our nation & our freedom.
#Investing in #education is one of the most worthwhile decisions a government can make. I was pleased to present scholarships to 29 deserving recipients. By supporting #Belize's best & brightest, I know #Taiwan is playing a key role in the country's social & economic development.
I’m proud to sign a bill into law that will help disadvantaged families save for their children’s #education. An investment in our next generation is an investment in #Taiwan’s future.
On the eve of the anniversary of the 1991 January Events, we took a moment of silence in solidarity with #Lithuania for those who lost their lives to authoritarian aggression. We will not forget their sacrifices & will continue to stand together for peace, freedom & democracy.
I would like to wish all #Jewish friends across #Taiwan & abroad a happy & prosperous #RoshHashanah! #ShanaTova
Finally had the chance to meet #StVincentAndTheGrenadines Minister of Health Luke Browne, who so bravely spoke up for #Taiwan at this year’s #WHA. His words of support have stayed with me to this day, and strengthened the resolve of the Taiwanese people. #JFDS2019
As commander in chief, I’m proud of Su Chi-lin, the 1st #Taiwan Navy Honour Guard who participated in & won a special award at the World Drill Championships! Thank you!!
Today is my third time welcoming #StKittsAndNevis @pmharriskn to the Presidential Office. We truly appreciate his unwavering support for #Taiwan’s international participation. I hope our bilateral ties will continue to grow from strength to strength! 🇹🇼🇰🇳
#TeamTaiwan is doing great at #AsianGames2018. So far, our athletes have won 13🥇, 3 more than last time. Keep up the good work & keep going for gold!
Selamat Hari Raya Idul Fitri! Today we join together in celebrating #Eid - the end of #Ramadan - across Taiwan
Our delegation received a warm welcome in #StKitts and #Nevis from @pmharriskn. Looking forward to our stay here, with an itinerary that will highlight our sustainable cooperation, as well as local history & culture. #JFDS2019
Deeply saddened to hear about Hilda Hernandez’s helicopter accident in Honduras. My thoughts are with @JuanOrlandoH & his family
