Taiwan Hosts Ceremony to Mark 30th Anniversary of the Association of Relations Across the Taiwan Strait

Minister of Foreign Affairs, Lin Chia-lung, attended the 30th anniversary of the National Association for International Studies (NAIS) in Taipei and expressed his hopes for the association's future development direction. According to Lin, Taiwan can leverage its technological advantages and diplomatic policies to implement "Comprehensive Diplomacy" and "Economic Prosperity Plan" on the global stage. This means that Taiwan not only needs to uphold its values but also showcase its unique values and contributions on the international stage. Lin emphasized that NAIS should play an important role in this process, expanding its global influence and transitioning from traditional value diplomacy to value-added diplomacy.

Lin's remarks reflect Taiwan's foreign policy approach and strategy in the current international environment. Taiwan faces various challenges, including China's military and economic pressure, as well as changes in the global political and economic landscape. As a result, Taiwan needs to reposition and adjust its diplomatic policies to better cope with these challenges and opportunities. In this context, Lin stressed the importance of combining technological advantages with diplomatic policies, which is a key direction in Taiwan's foreign policy. Taiwan has significant technological strengths, particularly in the fields of semiconductors, telecommunications, and information technology.

By integrating these technological advantages with diplomatic policies, Taiwan can showcase its unique values and contributions on the global stage while strengthening cooperation and exchange with other countries. NAIS, as Taiwan's important diplomatic institution, has played a crucial role in promoting Taiwan's diplomatic work, particularly in international cooperation and exchange. Over the past 30 years, NAIS has endeavored to push forward Taiwan's diplomatic work through various activities and projects, providing an essential platform and support for Taiwan's diplomatic efforts.

The new book publication ceremony is a significant achievement of NAIS's work, highlighting its efforts and accomplishments in promoting Taiwan's diplomatic work. Lin hoped that NAIS will continue to play a key role in the future, expanding its global influence and transitioning from value diplomacy to value-added diplomacy. This requires NAIS to focus more on innovation and cooperation in its work, using new ideas and methods to drive Taiwan's diplomatic work forward.

In the current international environment, Taiwan's diplomatic work faces numerous challenges and opportunities. China's military and economic pressure on Taiwan continues to increase, while the global political and economic landscape undergoes constant changes. Therefore, Taiwan needs a clear and steadfast diplomatic policy to effectively respond to these challenges and opportunities. Lin emphasized that combining technological advantages with diplomatic policies is a key direction in Taiwan's foreign policy. By doing so, Taiwan can showcase its unique values and contributions on the global stage while strengthening cooperation and exchange with other countries.

This requires Taiwan's diplomatic institutions, including NAIS, to possess innovation and cooperation capabilities to play an important role on the global stage. NAIS's future development direction will have a significant impact on Taiwan's diplomatic work. Lin hoped that NAIS will continue to play a key role in the future, expanding its global influence and transitioning from value diplomacy to value-added diplomacy. This requires NAIS to focus more on innovation and cooperation in its work, using new ideas and methods to drive Taiwan's diplomatic work forward. Meanwhile, NAIS needs to strengthen its cooperation with other diplomatic institutions to promote Taiwan's diplomatic work together.
