TAIPEI (Taiwan News) – In order to reverse past Taiwanese governments’ emphasis on
economic development, Culture Minister Cheng Li-chiun (鄭麗君) announced Wednesday she would call a National Culture Meeting this year preceded by regional forums.
All people in Taiwan were invited to share their opinions and ideals for the development of culture in the country, the minister said during a news conference at the URS27W Film Range in Taipei City’s Dadaocheng area.
Working hard on culture should become synonymous with Taiwan’s next stage of development, Cheng said. [FULL STORY]
