President Tsai Ing-wen on Thursday evening addressed the European Chamber of
Commerce Taiwan at its 2018 Europe Day Dinner.
In a speech in English, Tsai thanked the audience for the EU’s recognition of Taiwan as a beacon for human rights in the Asia-Pacific region.
The president said Taiwan would step up its cooperation with European companies in the area of advanced technology. She also said the government is working to make it easier for overseas companies to do business in Taiwan and is working with the EU to move forward on a bilateral investment agreement.
