The new digital post station allows citizens to manage their post office banking, as well as prepare their parcels for shipping, with digital registration. They can also access email and purchase stamps, boxes and other goods on sale at the post office.

CNA reports that Chunghwa is keeping up with the times, as Taiwan continues to develop its digital communication infrastructure, and as Taipei begins its drive to become a “smart-city.”
