Taipei, Dec. 12 (CNA) Taiwan will strengthen communication with other countries to obtain the latest anti-terrorism information from around the world and will step up security at its overseas representative offices, a foreign affairs spokeswoman said Saturday, after the country’s flag showed up for the second time in a video purportedly released by an extremist group.
