This morning I visited Hua-tung Defense Command to encourage & thank all military personnel involved in relief operations. All of us will continue to stand together with #Hualien
安倍首相からのお見舞いは、まさかの時の友は真の友、まさにその通りです。このような困難な時の人道救助は正に台日双方の友情と価値観を体現するものだと思います。本日、日本から7名の専門家が人命探査装置を持って訪台して頂きました。これにより、更に多くの被災者の救出に繋がることを望みます。 twitter.com/kantei/status/…
#Taiwan is grateful to the many offers of assistance & support coming from around the world. Although relief efforts in #Hualien are sufficient, your warmth & kindness have been felt by people of Taiwan bit.ly/2nJQZh9
Thank you to President @JuanOrlandoH for your support twitter.com/JuanOrlandoH/s…
Thank you to our first responders for their tireless efforts in #Hualien. Rescue operations have been continuing night & day. Right now 145 people remain unaccounted for – we will not rest until all are found
Major 6.4 earthquake in #Hualien. Armed forces & government agencies are responding. Relief measures are underway. Stay safe
Just had a quiet Friday evening at the Presidential Office
With less than a month to go before #CNY2018, I’m excited to share our new spring couplets & red envelope design. The couplet, “萬物當春、幸福共好”, features a poetry excerpt written in 1914 by Loa Ho (賴和), a poet known as the father of modern #Taiwanese literature
More positive news out about #Taiwan's booming economy: Unemployment is down to 17 year low; Taiwan Stock Market at 28 year high; salaries are up 2.86%! bit.ly/2n2QI85
I want to congratulate Chen Wei-lin, the first Hearthstone World Champion from Taiwan! 🇹🇼🎮 #HCTAmsterdam @HSesports #eSports twitter.com/hsesports/stat…
Democracy & freedom cannot be taken for granted, as latest @freedomhousedc #FreedomReport shows. #Taiwan is proud to be one of the freest democracies in Asia & will continue to be a beacon of light for the region
On this day, 2 years ago, I was elected by the people of #Taiwan to serve as president. Since then, I have continued to work for a better economy, stronger national defense & more stabilizing role in int’l society. We will press forward with the reforms this country needs
I’m grateful to the US Congress for supporting #Taiwan’s democracy & democratically-elected leadership. Introduced by @RepSteveChabot, the Taiwan Travel Act will strengthen & enhance the longstanding partnership between Taiwan & the United States twitter.com/RepSteveChabot…
Cross-strait stability is impt to regional stability. Recent unilateral actions by #China – including M503 flight route & increased military exercises – are destabilizing & should be avoided. #Taiwan will continue to safeguard the status quo. We call on all parties to do the same
Good morning 2018!
3...2...1... Happy New Year to our friends from around the world. On behalf of #Taiwan, thank you for your friendship and support!
As we countdown to 2018, we remember the events that have defined #Taiwan over the last year. We have made progress. I look forward to an even better & happier 2018 youtu.be/qIzZSzCjuwI

Today on #internationalimmigrationday, I want to thank all of #Taiwan’s immigrants who have made Taiwan a better, more diverse & multicultural country. Thank you!
Deeply saddened to hear about Hilda Hernandez’s helicopter accident in Honduras. My thoughts are with @JuanOrlandoH & his family
As a free & democratic country in #IndoPacific, #Taiwan is a natural party in Free & Open Indo-Pacific initiative. I trust that Taiwan has much to offer in showcasing benefits of freedom & openness, as well as value of rules-based order
On #Humanrightsday2017, I salute those who risked or even sacrificed their lives for #Taiwan’s #democracy. Under the recently enacted #TransitionalJustice Act, my administration will work to pave a path toward truth, justice, & reconciliation.
