President Tsai touts Taitung tourism, indigenous culture
President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) says she will work to improve support for Taitung.
The president visited the eastern city yesterday, saying she wanted to help promote the eastern county’s tourism and get a firsthand look at whether the needs of its sizeable indigenous population were being met.
Tsai says she plans to not only promote the county’s tourist attractions, but also to meet with farmers to talk about the marketing of their agricultural produce.
She says she plans to visit indigenous communities in an effort to see what progress had been made in the efforts to preserve their culture and tradition, to improve education and industrial development, and to provide long-term care services to their residents. [FULL STORY]
