KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 18 (Bernama) -- The Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA) in collaboration with the Taiwanese Embassy have organised the 2023 Taiwan Expo held in St Kitts and Nevis, marking a pivotal moment in the diplomatic history of both nations.
Held recently at the Visitor Centre, Malcolm Guishard Recreational Park in Nevis, the expo solidified the deep-rooted bond between these two countries, through a myriad of exhibitions and cultural experiences, according to a statement.
The expo featured 26 Taiwanese companies representing diverse industries, whereby visitors had the privilege of exploring a wide array of cutting-edge products as it also offered an immersive journey into Taiwanese culture beyond trade and technology.
In a bid to foster inclusive bilateral cooperation, the expo extended invitations to local businesses, enabling them to showcase their products alongside Taiwanese exhibitors.
It served as a powerful platform to underscore significant trade opportunities between St Kitts and Nevis with Taiwan. Last year, bilateral trade between the two nations reached an impressive US$1.56 million. (US$1=RM4.68)
As both nations look ahead, they remain committed to deepening their ties, nurturing their friendship, and exploring new avenues for collaboration, in which the Expo was a testament to the enduring partnership between St Kitts and Nevis and Taiwan, setting the stage for a future marked by shared success and prosperity.
Furthermore, the "Commemorative Stamp Competition” was unveiled not only to underscore the remarkable rapport shared between the Federation and Taiwan but also invites participants to visually capture the essence of this enduring partnership.
The competition will feature an engaging online voting mechanism, scheduled to run from Sept 15 to 30, and the results will be unveiled on Oct 9.
This enduring diplomatic relationship has manifested itself in their partnership in various sectors, including renewable energy; health; training and education; people empowerment; diplomacy; climate change and cultural exchange.
