Taiwanese businesspeople are on the front lines of international business & trade. I was pleased to meet with members of the World Taiwanese Chambers of Commerce, whose valuable input informs policy decisions & helps #Taiwan attract investments to keep our economy moving forward.

To #Taiwan, our freedom & democracy are not negotiable. We are committed to self-defense & international cooperation. I call upon all members of the region to join hands to maintain regional peace & stability.
631
#Taiwan is quickly becoming a hub for #biotech research in the Asia-Pacific. For the first time ever, this year’s @IAmBiotech BIO Asia Conference & Exhibition is being held in #Taipei, & I look forward to seeing the new technologies Taiwanese innovators will bring to the table.
632
Taiwanese firms like Mobiletron are returning to #Taiwan in record numbers this year, investing over US$15 billion in the domestic economy. These investments are helping transform Taiwan’s economic structure, create jobs, & keep Taiwan on the cutting edge.
633
#Taiwan’s future as a #SmartNation was on display today at the Presidential #Hackathon award ceremony. That future will see #OpenGovernment collaborations, & innovative solutions we can share with the global community to help achieve the #SDGs—one more way that #TaiwanCanHelp.
634
It was inspiring to meet so many passionate, creative people at today’s Presidential #Hackathon. I look forward to seeing even more citizens work with government to find innovative solutions that change people’s lives for the better in #Taiwan, and around the globe.

我接受了NHK的專訪,對於香港強力處理抗議活動的手段一再引起對立,我表達了強烈的憂心。期盼今天的台灣,可以是明天的香港。與台灣一樣享有民主主義以及言論自由的保障,是極為重要的事情。
636
NHKの単独インタビューを受けました。私はこの機会を借り、香港で起こったデモに対する取締りが強化されていることに強い懸念を表明しました。何より、「今日の台湾」が「明日の香港」になるのを希望し、台湾のように民主主義や言論の自由が保障されることは極めて重要です。 twitter.com/nhk_news/statu…

#JFDS2019 showed once again that #Taiwan is a vital member of the international community in many ways. Throughout my visits, I was touched by the messages of strong support and encouragement from our like-minded friends in the #Caribbean and the #US. Go Taiwan!
638
Delighted to welcome @Rendon63rd, a longtime friend of Taiwan, & his delegation from the #California State Assembly. Economic & cultural ties between #Taiwan & the Golden State are strong, & I look forward to working even more closely together in the future.
639
As like-minded partners, #Taiwan & the #UK cooperate on a diverse range of issues spanning from tech to trade. Today’s discussions with members of the @UKHouseofLords allowed us to explore new possibilities for closer collaboration, based on our shared values.

Pleased to meet #Taiwan’s first #OPBF Gold Belt holder Hung Chia-ching & Asian women’s gold medalist and #Tokyo2020 Olympic hopeful Lin Yu-ting. Their success in the ring shows that #Taiwan is a growing force in regional sports, & ready to shine on the global stage. Go Taiwan!
641
China’s government is making a mistake by prohibiting individual travelers from coming to #Taiwan. They are depriving Chinese people of their right to experience our free & democratic lifestyle for themselves, which is the most natural way to improve cross-strait communication.
642
中国限制人民来台湾旅游,是一个很大的战略错误。
我常在台湾各地,遇到来台旅行的中国年轻人,他们可以亲身体会台湾的自由民风,没有网路限制、没有社会监控。这是真正认识台湾最好做法,也是两岸人民交流最自然、最真诚的部分。现在他们的权利被剥夺,替他们感到不捨。
643
#IndigenousPeoples’ Day is a very special occasion, a time to celebrate the diversity of #Taiwan society and culture. By embracing our indigenous heritage, we align ourselves with international values, and affirm our relationship with peoples throughout the Indo-Pacific.

Three years of economic reforms helped #Taiwan’s GDP grow by over 2.4% in 2019 Q2, highest among the 4 Asian Tigers. Economic restructuring, industrial innovation, & investments by returning local firms have given Taiwan a leg up in the regional economic race.

有馬キャスターとのインタビューは台湾と香港の未来について真剣な議論でしたが、それでも台湾が世界に誇るタピオカミルクティーをお試しいただきたかったんです!
雖然跟有馬主播的專訪,是在討論台灣與香港的未來這樣嚴肅的議題,但我沒有忘記請他來杯—台灣在世界引以為傲的珍奶! twitter.com/nhk_nw9/status…

Wish I could be in @CentralParkNYC on August 3rd for 2019 #TaiwaneseWaves @SummerStage. This year’s concert features an all-women lineup, & Saturday will be another chance to come together & enjoy sunshine & the #SoundsOfTaiwan. Wherever we go, Taiwanese women make waves!

@nhk_nw9 有馬嘉男 キャスターのメイメイだそうですが、うちのも自慢させてもらいます!

Up, up, and away! Taitung’s International Balloon Festival is one of Eastern Taiwan’s biggest summer attractions, & this year I had the opportunity to see the spectacle for myself. Exciting events like this are just one of the many reasons #Taiwan tourism continues to flourish.

Congratulations to our team for the @WBSC U-12 Baseball World Cup championship victory! These young athletes train year in & year out, rain or shine, & it is wonderful to see all their hard work pay off. Go Taiwan!
